[Omnibobatron]

And the spidersilk, no doubt.

Anyway, I'll try to recap any questions we have for our poor GM; I'll go through the last couple pages and summarize.

[EDIT]
Omnibobatron, here's some questions for you.

From Elek:
The description of Kick doesn't explain what are "basic Unarmed Combat actions". The maneuvers above are not actions at all, but are variations on the Called Shot rules. So I'd like to hear if our GM would allow to use Kick with Called Shots.

KICK ATTACK
Yeah, everyone can insert boot in opponent’s groin, but not everyone can level a kick to the sternum or raise their leg above their head and drop it like an axe without pulling something. From the traditional back, side, and reverse kicks to the axe kick, this is a staple of many martial arts. This technique provides +1 Reach to basic Unarmed Combat Actions. Multiple purchases of this technique cannot be combined to give more than a +1 Reach advantage.

From Elek:
Will the Unarmed Combat (Cyber Implants) specialization apply to cyberlimbs?

From Elek:
"Will you allow Performance (Showing Off/Showmanship) to apply where Error is playing to a crowd/audience/cameras?"

From Elek:
Will you allow Agile Defender from Run & Gun?

AGILE DEFENDER (–3 KARMA)
Speed kills, but quickness and agility can be the key to avoiding a speedy death. This quality allows the character to use their Agility in place of their Willpower attribute while using Full Defense.

From Elek:
Will you allow Prejudice (Technomancers)?

From Poindexter:
Will you allow a Ballistic Mask that looks like Gordon Freeman?

From Martin (that's me! )
Would you allow a helmet and a ballistic mask to stack?

From Martin:
How do you want to handle addiction tests?
Elek posted a link that explains the concept pretty well; http://forums.shadowruntabletop.com/index.php?topic=16349.msg288113#msg288113

From Martin:
Winnipeg is in the UCAS; are we using the standard Seattle, UCAS availability rules from the core book? I.e. what is Forbidden/Restricted and such?

From Martin/Elek:
How "distinctive" does Distinctive Style have to be?

Thank you for putting these together! I've been busy with life and havent had a lot of time, but should have more time now.

1) Within reason, yes you can use kick with called shots (ex, you can kick a gun out of someone's hand, but you cannot subdue someone with a kick)
2) I don't believe it would count unless you had something like spurs in your knucks
3) Yes, again within reason
4) Yes
5) No, because we have a techno in our group
6) Sure! haha
7) No, they wont stack, sorry!
That link looks like a great way to handle it
9) Yes, to keep it simple it will be standard ratings
10) Distinctive enough that if someone was paying attention they would be able to link two things together. (Ex, a mortician notices that two unrelated deaths both died from similar wrestling moves) but it doesn't have to be super obvious either.

Thank you, Omnibobatron! I will have a couple of new questions for you, when I have time to paste some stuff from R&G :-)

Although I can't wait with one:

Would you allow Weapon Personality from R&G?

Weapon personality (accessory): Does your gun need its own software complete with an artificial personality to provide information in a more chatty fashion instead of just providing numbers, crosshairs, and other similar data? Depends on how you function. If meta-to-meta interaction is how you prefer to get your information, you might want a weapon personality, which provides a metahuman-like interface so you can chat away. The guttural Neil the Ork Barbarian with its “scalped ‘em” grunt to tell you when you got a hit is especially popular.

It has availability of 8 and costs ¥250.

Although I want to use it in an unconventional way: Error has two sports commentators' voices in his head, which describe all his actions as if he still was on the arena. He misses the old days that much :-)

Would you allow to change it that way?

[ve4grm]

If you're a techie, and work in Winnipeg, there is a good chance she has appeared to you once in a while.

Random thoughts from 3 pages ago...

- So Angel and I would be aware of each other. Would I know she's a technomancer?

- Angel sounds like she'd play out a lot like Baron Samedi, from the Shadowrun Returns campaign. I don't mind this at all.

[Triskavanski]

She probably wouldn't reveal she is a technomancer so easily. But she may allude to the idea that she could be a decker, free sprite, AI or yes also a Technomancer.

Totally cool 

[Poindexter]

is Jellybean good with you, captain?

[Omnibobatron]

is Jellybean good with you, captain?

Yes. I've been debating on the kamikaze and the codeblock quality, but I'll allow it. You should be good to go

[martinchaen]

Any outstanding issues with Loki? If not, I am absolutely ready as well.

[Poindexter]

i pray neither of us ever have to care about that tooth.

[Triskavanski]

has anyone seen anything wrong with angel?

[Elektrycerze3]

Fixed Error and changed a couple of things. I need GM's approval on a couple of things from R&G and one MP from Gun He(a)ven 3. Some of those things I attach as pics, some as text quotes. I know some gear has already been uploaded, like PPP, but for everyone's convenience I include all the nonstandard stuff in this post.




The gas mask is installed into the Ballistic Mask.

CUSTOM FIT
Items that are Custom Fit were measured for a specific person. They are specially designed for that person and don’t fit well on anyone else, therefore conferring none of the positive Social Limit adjustments to the character. When an item is Custom Fit, any changes to an individual’s Physical Attributes, whether through Karma advancement or augmentation (but not through magic), require the suit to be refit. The refit process requires an Armorer shop and an Armorer + Logic [Mental] (10, 1 hour) Extended Test. The owner can also use their Contacts to help them get the job done, requiring loss of the armor for one week and a payment of 25 percent of the initial armor cost.

NEWEST MODEL
These items are the most recent incarnations of their corporate creators. That means they lose a little more when purchased as Lightly Worn, namely a 20 percent loss of Armor Rating (round adjusted Rating up) when buying older models of the clothes.

I changed my Prejudice quality to Prejudice (Indians). Error generally equates Amerinds to Yakuts, who did to Russia what Amerinds did to the US. Since I find "Yakut" too specific and unlikely to surface in this game, I write it down as "Indians". Is it OK? If not, consider Error a Russian SINner.

Also I would like to have the following Quality from R&G:

ONE TRICK PONY (–7 KARMA)
You’ve watched the same action trid or chipped your way through the same simsense so many times you actually know how to do that really cool move the star always uses. This quality allows the character to choose one Martial Arts technique they can do without first learning the associated Martial Arts style.

Finally, here are Error's MA techniques:

COUNTERSTRIKE
(UNARMED COMBAT ONLY)
Interrupt Action (–7 Initiative Score)
Counterstrike allows the character to leverage the opponent’s force into an advantage, allowing the character to make a quick strike back. In place of the standard Defense Test, the character makes an Unarmed Combat + Reaction [Physical] Test against the opponent’s standard Attack Test. If the defender achieves more hits than the attacker, the defender successfully avoided the attacker’s strike while returning and landing a strike of their own. The defender’s counterstrike attack has a Damage Value equal to the defending character’s standard Unarmed DV + net hits. The damage is resisted by a standard Damage Resistance Test. If the defender does not achieve more hits, then he must make a Damage Resistance Test against the damage of the attacker’s strike as normal. Note that use of this action requires Martial Art training.

KICK ATTACK
Yeah, everyone can insert boot in opponent’s groin, but not everyone can level a kick to the sternum or raise their leg above their head and drop it like an axe without pulling something. From the traditional back,side, and reverse kicks to the axe kick, this is a staple of many martial arts. This technique provides +1 Reach to basic Unarmed Combat Actions. Multiple purchases of this technique cannot be combined to give more than a +1 Reach advantage.

RANDORI
This is a freestyle technique of sparring by using any means necessary. While variations are incorporated into martial arts such as Judo and Aikido, the generic technique includes eye gouging and other less than friendly holds and attacks. Reduce Called Shot penalty by 1 for Called Shot (Dirty Trick), reduce the Called Shot penalty by 1 for Called Shot (Vitals), or reduce the Called Shot penalty by 1 for Called Shot (Specific Location (Eye)). Characters only receive one of these benefits, as listed with the martial art style they select.

YIELDING FORCE
Opposite of Opposing Force, Yielding Force is the practice of using the opponent’s force against him. It provides +1 die to Riposte, +1 die to Counter Strike, or +1 die to Throw (including both the Throw Person and Sacrificial Throw actions). Characters only receive one of these bonuses, as indicated in their particular Martial Art style.

SWEEP (CLOSE COMBAT ONLY)
Martial Art techniques allow more control over how the opponent falls when the character knocks him off his feet (Knockdown, p. 194, SR5). He may choose to inflict damage as if it were a normal melee attack.
Damage type from a sweep is always Stun.

Hope everything is OK this time =)

[martinchaen]

Looks like you might have taken Yielding Force twice according to the character sheet, everything else looks good to me.

[ve4grm]

Pretty sure Brink is good to go. I added insulation to his jacket, because -40 probably counts as cold damage.

[martinchaen]

Hehe, ve4grm, that's about what I did for Loki as well. Rating 4 Insulation, and a ballistic mask with flare compensation and a respirator; sucking down cold air is a bi***... I guess it's a good thing that Loki knows Ignite; never know when that particular spell might come in handy

i think im gonna go throw a respirator in my freeman mask before we get started, now that ya mention it.
There's just no damn good reason not to, really.
