Awe seemed to work well - it seems to take effect almost immediately.  As I have had Presence used on Cate for several times already, I went ahead and looked it up.Max could just skip awe and go right into Dread Gaze + willpower  to Nik. Also he can add up his successes each turn to basically eat away Nik's willpower until he's completely subjugated without having to do anything.  Of course Max will have been shot first because Nik has initiative so I don't know what that does to everything.Also, I wasn't going to say anything earlier, but I guess since we bring up the gun subject and since it looks like it will be a big part of the game.  I'd like to know how we are going to deal with the use and carrying of guns in an policed urban setting like NYC.  I'm also going to assume that we want the weapons to be concealable since they've been taken to highly public areas.A shotgun and machine gun are relatively bulky weapons and difficult to conceal.  They do make concealable SMG holsters that hug the body for the covert military, and a bulky trenchcoat might conceal it, but he'd have to be really careful when sitting down or it'll stick out.  Also keep his trenchcoat buttoned up as the telltale criss cross of the holster will show.  This of course will make it difficult to draw the weapon quickly.Rifle holsters are a different story altogether, they are designed (at least the ones I've seen) to be worn in the back with the rifle sticking out.  That means without the holster, one hand has to be on it at all times, and you can't sit down or the rifle will be revealed.  Also walking with it will make it very obvious you're holding one to any police officer (or anybody for that matter).  There's a reason why rifles are not exactly the weapon of choice for NYC street toughs.Pistols I think are the best bet as they are easy to conceal at a moment's notice, if you don't buy a huge pistol that is.  They make plenty of concealable holsters for them and can be put easily under a jacket.  Also they come with nifty (and highly illegal) silencers.  You can of course make your own silencer.ok end dissertation on guns, hehe.Festy would know more than me anyway.EDIT:  Realized we were talking about shotguns. It can be a bit shorter than all out traditional rifle, but still very bulky to conceal.</blockquote>
