A blindfolded mage can only cast spells on themselves, which helps at least.

One thing I'm unclear of with BitD - if I mark off some gear slots to turn them into a grappling hook, do I continue to have a grappling hook for the rest of the mission? Or is it all now 'expended'?.

MagusofStars posted:Yeah, but that was in an army unit where there's all sorts of politics and bureaucracy that keeps you from straight up dumping his rear end. Unless they're Connected enough that having them die anywhere in your general vicinity would result in a Large Pile Of poo poo, so you have to try and shepherd them along and keep them safe and entertained until you find some other sucker to palm them off to.

SIGSEGV posted:The IJN was known for introducing recruits to (relatively, compared to hinterland areas) good food, I don't think those would qualify. Since white rice was more prestigious than brown rice, a bunch of IJN sailors ended up with malnutrition.

Kobal2 posted:Yeah, she's pretty good at the whole win-win thing, isn't she ? Like with us. We're either assets who can do what they're told competently enough for real work (who are under her thumb for good so much cheaper than paying real runners), or we're goodwill tokens to the HKPF and/or whoever's organized the massacre, possibly coming in a number of bags each no bigger than a breadbox. I mean it wasn't zero-cost for her, she had to spend some favours organising the burning of our SINs. But she ran the odds and decided a wager was in her favour.

By popular demand posted:I have no trouble believing that, FASA dropped the ball almost every step of the way. It's CGL now. And 'dropping the ball' is a massive understatement for what CGL's been up to the last few editions. Possibly 'set the ball on fire then spiked it into a wood-chipper' ?

It turns out 'how to fix deckers' was a very simple question all along: give them grenade launchers.

JT Jag posted:There's also more mundane explanations for Lau's situation than him being a secret spirit or something. Well, mundane for this setting. Maybe he's a human who grew up poor in this part of town, made it big with one of the local corporations because of his likely magical talent, and could afford a leonization. Good plastic surgery is a couple orders of magnitude cheaper than leonisation.

bewilderment posted:I guess it's jumping to conclusions but "the victim was killed instantly/painlessly, then the corpse was mutilated afterwards" means that even without foreknowledge it seems pretty clear to me that this is some kind of professional assassin only pretending to be a wild beast or freak, seems odd that the party hasn't suggested it. They seem to be very particular and specific about the flaying though, not just hacking away with a knife for a bit and calling it good.

Once you've tried BTLs a few times, actual-reality starts feeling like a lovely low-res trid show. It just doesn't seem real anymore, like life is the dream and only in BTL are you awake. Many deckers, incidentally, use hotsim to give them an edge. It works! You see more clearly, react faster. The downside is that decking becomes highly addivtive.

Rogue AI Goddess posted:Is it possible to magically or technologically overclock one's brain and nervous system so that everyday reality is augmented to BTL levels? Sounds like the sort of thing that would result in the player character finding a series of journal entries scattered around your home / basement lab.

K10 aka 'Blood of Kali' is the ultimate combat stimulant. Half the test subjects died of heart-explody. The other half died from the wounds they suffered during their rampage - but not until AFTER it wore off.

It should be noted that most Red Samurai use guns like everyone else. It's just that a few start taking the unit name too seriously and start using their ceremonial katanas as major weapons.

Ghouls are generally kill-on-sight everywhere, because they're usually near-mindless predators and also carriers of a highly infectious and highly dangerous disease.

GhostStalker posted:Dunkelzahn’s Will includes a huge nuyen reward if anyone is able to come up with a viable vat grown solution to the ghoul feeding problem. No one has as of yet been able to collect. Growing metahuman flesh in a vat is easy, but it doesn't actually satiate a ghoul's hunger because what they're really feeding on is the traces of the person's essence left in the flesh. If it was never a person then there was never any essence in the first place, and it does nothing. Alacron posted:Wait, wasn't the streetdoc in Kreuzbasar feeding ghouls? I may be forgetting but I thought he was using synthetic or vat grown body parts? He was using dead patients and the bits he cut off live patients (if you get a cyberarm installed he'll dispose of your old arm for you.)
