2000AD Judge Dredd Errata

[MacD]

On pg 71, the Counterhack exploit refers to a "system override exploit" which doesn't seem to have made it to the book.

That's an exploit from NEW.
I don't think it's very useful within Judge Dredd - System override is a hacking attack in starship combat, counterhack is additional defense against it

It would be good to have it all in one place.

How the feth did I miss that.
TBH I was just agreeing with Ben.

In that case every pregen character needs their REP increased by 3. Is it safe to assume the REP starts at 3 not 0 is optional? I kind of liked that it started at 0.

In that context, yeah, it makes sense to drop it, but it makes sense to have it as a response to general hacking. (Though, I'll admit, it doesn't really come up that much in JD.)

You should talk about that with your GM - GM's may change rules as they want (golden rule of P&P) - they should be so nice and leave a note about rule changes (or at least those changes that directly apply to them).

I don't know very much about the world of JD; as the exploit RAW only works if one is ACTIVE counterhacking, I don't think it's very useful as PC - but, as the exploit has to be re-written by your GM to apply to your game he also could change it to be useful ;-)
