I of course don't give a single rat's anus whether you can or can't subscribe to that view. As usual that had to be expected. Now do you think that I care a single's rat anus about your not giving a rat's anus? That view is right and canon and any other view is wrong. I love such binary thinking ;)...

Technically neither heath spells nor mama static break the astral gate rules. To openly requote the important part: Spells only have an effect in the plane on which they are cast . Spells cast on the astral have no effect on the physical, and vice versa . While I can see your argument being made fo...

Let's just say, that most of these rules were kept intact both in 3rd and 4th Edition ... except for No.7 which was regularly broken by health spells that healed physical bodies and the associated astral form as well through spells like Mana Static. And I do seem to recall a certain spell from a ver...

Maybe you were actually thinking of the Predator's "official" competitor for "the heavy pistol in the biz": the Browing Max-Power at some point certainly had artwork that reminds of the Desert Eagle: http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101009211457/kolidascope/images/3/3b/Browni...

but i think in SR1 there was, in the core book, an assault cannon (note the lack of panther) that looked closer to the cobra than anything else. SR 1 listed an assault cannon but didn't have a picture for it. The thing that came closest to looking like a Barret in SR1 with a scope like the "Co...

That is what "modeled on" means. Your mileage may vary there then, but to me things that are "modeled on something" are either built "as models" (or props) of an actual item or they represent some sort of distincitive evolution where important features of the original ...

The Cobra Assault Cannon. Correct ... Which is what the PANTHER Assault Cannon in Shadowrun is modeled on. Incorrect. The Panther Assault Cannon - despite its quite obvious "rip-off" name - optically is certainly not modeled on either Cobra Assault Cannon or the latter's real world counte...

You can just take all those 6PP at chargen. You have 20 chargen karma to spend (or something like that, I don't remember exactly) In fact you actually should maximize on adept power points - even at the new cost of 5 (pseudo-) karma - due to the low opportunity cost and the restrictions on how myst...

To be honest: Prior to Pegasus' involvement the german SR versions had their fair share of bad translation and lack of proof reading (and at least part of the current german SR team was involved in such failures as well). First printing of SR3.01D was worse than even 4th limited (or it's german coun...

That's fine as far as it goes - but it's a seriously major change to Shadowrun in particular to advocate for Dodger to not be a member of the team . -Username17 Maybe it's just me, but the way I saw it: Dodger never was a member of the team and "the team" itself didn't exist in the first ...

For reasons that don't make any sense to anyone, Catalyst decided to release a metaplot book which shared the same name as the most well known Neo Nazi hate group. Now come on Frank, it's not as if the term "storm front" is a perfectly normal term in meteorology and that in various forms ...
