[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 806666, member: 1194"] It's all very helpful - thanks! And fun, too - I really do like learning rules. (to a point) 0) Where are you getting the 50,000 cost for Rujtenium Polymer? The only figure I've seen is 10,000 per square meter. I'd guess a human could be plenty covered in 2 square meters, and then one image scanner puts it at 25,000. Wait a minute. Street Index of 2! That's what that does - gotcha. OK - is it possible that we get money in game and he can smuggle out one of those suits that he used to use as an assassin for the Shiawase corporation? (Or if we're completely inexperienced, than he would have used it in practice) 1) Yes, Nervestrike sounds cool, and I really enjoy both of your suggestions. I don't think I'll go that direction, though, since that implies a hand-to-hand combatant, and if I decked out Inue in that way, I'd likely add Killing Hands, etc. I want him more of a dextrous, stealthy killer-from-the-shadows guy. You don't see him till it's too late, and then yoiu're sliced in half by the monofilament whip. :D 2) I didn't know the Adept boosts weren't that useable? Sounds like a tough call between the boost and Improved Physical Attribute. Too expensive, though - what do you guys think? 3) Very interesting suggestions with the cyberware, all. I like it when cyberware gives something that other more mundane things can't get you. (or does it significantly better). I hadn't thought of the Balance thing - that does match what I remember of the vat-grown ninja from Johnny Mnemonic. It's just so expensive! It's definately something I'm considering. The Bone Lacing again pusjes Inue into a hand-to-hand melle combatant, and if he gets that close, he'd be using the whip. Smartlink only gets 1 more than a non-cyber smartgun, right? I'm thinking of just using a Smartgun, linked with a special helmet that goes with his stealth costume: the helmet would be based on a Security Helmet, but not provide any armor benefits. It would be cloth-like with wires and a Vision System, with the features (Thermo, etc) that Shalimar nicely suggested. It's a great ide to cyber that stuff... I just think it's better to not have it cyberware if you can get almost the same effect with gear. Does that sound right to you guys? And Shalimar - I'm sure you're spot on, about how I'm lucky with the whip costs. And about Pressure Points - it really was just a flavor thing, since I couldn't find any other Knowledge skills that interested me. Forget about the Ventriloquism, since I can't find the Holgraphic Projector. [/QUOTE]
