Re: Rules Clarification: Firearms in Close Combat

The one that does the special attack still needs to win the opposed roll and if he does, he has the gun but that's it. If he tries to shot the former owner of the gun that person can do a special attack and take it back. Two people in close combat fighting over a gun, very cinematic I think. But so...

Re: Rules Clarification: Firearms in Close Combat

p68 problem:

Police Rank and Commendations

On pages 156 and 166,167 there is background on Rank, Commendation and Disciplinary Action. What I fail to see is how this interacts mechanically with the game. What police rank do players have, when do you hand out what Distinction or Disciplinary Action and what are the effects of this ? Is this s...

Re: NPCs and Stress

Moreover, what is missing is a Morale rule of sorts. Most people would just give up after being fired upon by the police, most certainly after being hit once. So I houseruled that NPCs (with the exception of Replicant Combat models, which makes them creepier, and other military personnel) give up af...
