according to the FAQ, you can have cyberware act as a foci (enchanted before its implanted.  So I was wondering, if I was to make a cyberspur a weapon foci for a cyber adept how do I calculate the cost?

Is it using just the cost of weapon foci = 10,000 x rating
or is it the foci + the cost of the cyberware = (10,000 x rating) + cyberware.

seondly, if the spur is in a cyberlimb, can it still be a focus seeing that its connected to somethin that cost me essence?

The 2nd...cost of the Foci plus the cost of the weapon itself.

The Singular is FOCUS DAMN IT!
And yes, seeing how you paid for the limb with your essence, the limb is part of you.
It works.

True. He said "foci" so I followed suit with the plural.

If he had said "parts" or "components" I would have done the same.

I have a whole thread on Foci using the right form for the singular, around here somewhere.  :P

Remember that feeling, though, next time somebody says "clip".  Like fingernails on a chalk board.

Dog-latin? (as I'm pretty sure there's no translation for Ammo in a dead language :P)

Before reading the abbr code, my thoughts were:
I run, therefore I am... or words to the effect....

'Shoot accurately....' and then nothin'... not a lot of latin coming back to me from high-school...

Interesting quotes to choose though....
- I run therefore I augment
- Conserve ammo, shoot straight and never make a deal with a dragon
