Listen to the PC describe what they’re looking for. Write them all down on scrap piece of paper or handle them one at a time. Look up basic cost of item(s). Look up PCs reputation with the region’s dominant and secondary factions. Find reputation chart, cross reference faction reps, check if player...

or you could remove the entire computer step and give the NPC a calculator... way simpler.

Armor/clothing cannot be swapped during combat. This could cause a safety issue. (ie some armors may require being pulled over the head which cannot be done safely during combat). And yes, all items must be physreped. Remember, many items are off site type deals so your "item" is really ju...

Grenades are more on the limited amount set (requiring actual laminated cards which are turned in after use in a scene). They shouldn't be everyone has a dozen. Weapons, sure, but I see no point in having cards for these as the physrep is way better at tracking this. For example: I'm new, enter the ...

What Aaron means is I need a phone #. Skype is just how I do conference calls since I can call phones and skype numbers. Skype is nice since I can also share documents and such. Could even use gotomeeting but the call quality is less.

Carrying two (or three) weapons isn't really awkward. I used both the shotgun and P90 quite effectively when we played. I just propped one against a bunker so when I ran out of ammo or needed a slightly different style I could swap quickly. Very handy. I'd expect more of this. As for gun hits, under...

That... or more correctly Nelkie took care of all of that and the rest of us didn't want to deal with it.

Also remember that increasing creation costs is not actually a money 'sink' but rather a money 'conversion'. It's only a sink when the item is destroyed. In the case of some exotics, this is highly unlikely and thus will create a problem down the road.

I think he was refering more to Chris' "must actively block" post rather than the required acknowledgement concept.

While I whole heartedly agree, good luck with that idea... It's been shot down at least three times already.

That's as bad as NOUP...

stuff Nelkie and I discussed last night: Reputation: Basically do a star pattern for major factions (say 5 to start, must go up in odd increments). Each faction has two opposing factions. Base reputation is 100% in each. Getting a bonus to one faction equals half minus to the two opposing (ie +10% e...

Reputation stuff - eh, I can see it though not convinced we need 'guilds' for mercs. It'll end up needing all kinds of ridiculous rules determining when and how often people can switch, rep loss from switching, etc. Let the players create their own groups but I wouldn't tie any rules to it. I think ...

perks are there to give something when buying level 3 in a attribute. Buying level 3 and 4 just for an extra body or luck will be a hard sell most likely. Using a body as a shield is only for people willing to get pelted. This would not be a forced on you deal, and NPCs would obviously not be willin...
