Gas grenades – Hand area in Tech Playbook, Near area in Gear. Which is  it? I guess Near but…

Does the +2 to Processor from Efficiency Routines do anything other than allow two extra programs to be run. Does the value of Efficiency Routines allow you to switch points into other Ratings i.e. can you make Processor rating 1 and use Tech: Expert Breadboarder to get two programs and run one as Efficiency Routines to get another two programs running (total 3) on effectively a Rating 1 processor.

Can cyberdecks have a value of 0 for some ratings i.e. can Hardening or Firewall be zero and points allocated to other ratings not to exceed the max (2 normally)

Does the ‘You may take the Hacker move Jack in as an advance’ in Tech Playbook p99 override the list in Advancing p137 where other Playbook is advance option 4 and 5 i.e does Jack In only get picked after three previous advances for a Tech?

MC: Lucifer bucks and screams as the RPG splinters her bodywork, cracks the rear window and blows a chunk out of her back left tire. The wind sends her spoiler spinning up and into the night as you struggle to correct the spin. Your HUD display shows a heat spike near the fuel tank, then BOOM! Lucifer flips end over end, tossing you around the cabin like a trussed up crash dummy until she comes to a rest on her roof on the sidewalk. Take 3 harm and make the harm move.

DRIVER: I want low right? I get a 7… plus 3. 10… Ugh.

MC: The Blackwater-Verizon van screeches to a halt a hundred meters away and you see boots emerge and fan out. Which one of those options do you choose?

DRIVER: I’m gonna regret this… I’m choosing the cyberware option. The electrics fed back into my Control Systems during the crash and shorted the CPU.

MC: Ouch. It feels like your head is on fire as you force yourself to focus on the approaching kill team. What do you do?

I’m almost finished the move example text.

I’m seriously considering kicking Manoeuvre to the curb (it’s not obvious how it flows from the fiction, and there are arguably too many moves in the game) BUT, I love that it puts those mechanical options for making combat dynamic right there on the table in front of the players.

So, come at me with elegant ways to keep that stuff in front of the players eyes and minds, while scrapping the move.

Just curious on the status?  I assume we are not going to make the February deadline.  Any news on when it is set…

I’m in the process of revising and streamlining the moves. Currently in my sights is Obligations/Hit The Street.
