just wait'll the awakening hits.

I see the ranchers are still playing the "our animals are more important than your animals" card though. How long until beef cattle are considered an "invasive species"?

/no bovine in this fight, I'll gladly eat either one

Well beef cattle is tastier for the reason that we've been breeding for that trait for a few thousand years, but I do find it amusing that Ranchers are petrified of the bison carrying Brucellosis, a disease THEY introduced decades ago from poor management of the domestic cattle

I've had bison burgers, and I think they're as tasty as beef, with the bonus of being much lower in saturated fat.

LowbrowDeluxe: RoyFokker'sGhost: I can has Panther Assault Cannon now?

And old rules APDS ammo?

Yeah, but wasn't there some thing in the old rules that resulted in even a Panther Assault Cannon being unable to perform a one-hit kill?

They ain't doin much if they take enough damage to make them unconscious after an 'S' wound. Beside, the Panther is for taking out light pursuit vehicles. APDS loads in the SMG's and Assault Rifles for when the drek hits the fan. Usually, I'd load gel-rounds loaded with DMSO4 and knock-out juice for general security.

Pro-Tip: the less of a security guard body count you leave behind, the more likely a corporation will be open to surrender and negotiation for your continued survival in exchange for some odd jobs.

Parthenogenetic: The Panther Assault Cannon, designed and produced by Panther Industries, is your only choice for heavy assault weapon. Firing a stable superplast explosive warhead, the Panther has proven effective against both hard and soft targets. Comes with shoulder-strap and hip-bracing gear for stable hip-fire. The Panther fires specialized 25mm HV grenades with a double-sized propellant charge. Impact from one of these grenades deals 2D6 damage beyond the normal damage for such a round. Rounds also cost 2.5x the normal cost for 25mm grenades.

Frag. Looks like modern tech has caught up to fantasy tech again. Time whip out the 45mm sniper rifle or 75mm man-portable howitzer from Underground.

Yes. mm. Not fractions of an inch. One of those will empty any pail, boosted or not.

Not that I recall. Hence the reason my players usually had unfortunate accidents the moment they got their hands on one.

And APDS ammo had a bad habit of catching on fire... coincidentally...by accident...frequently...

LOL! Sounds a lot like my old GM. In his universe, a terrorist group got into the factory that made survival knives and added unstable particles to the steel in the blades causing them to explode at random times. Of course, that may have had something to do with the time our group totally farked his three week planned campaign with the contents of two survival knives (although these weren't standard issue as they also contained fishing line).

Party Member: "I use the compass in the handle of my knife to tell where the magnetic field is coming from."
GM: "Ok. You found it."

later...

Party Member: "I tie the lever down with the fishing line from my survival knife so we can all get through."
GM: "Crap."

later...

Party Member: "I jam the door open with the blade of my survival knife."
GM: "GOD DAMNIT!"

later...

GM: "Ok, he's lying there bleeding to death. What do you do?"
Party Member: "I use the med patch from my survival knife to stabilize him."
GM: "FARKING SURVIVAL KNIVES!"

later...

GM: "Power's out. There are no lights. Temperature in the room is too hot for thermal. You need to find the exit fast to make it out."
Party Member (laughing his ass off): "Glow stick. Survival knife."
GM: "THAT'S IT! NO MORE SURVIVAL KNIVES!"

Good times.

Bison meat is MUCH tastier than cow meat. I'll take a bison steak or burger any day of the week over a cow steak or burger.

In this case, money will probably win. I sure and shiat hope that one day they'll realize they will have to eat their own money. I wonder if they'll put salt on it or not.

Nerdy Story Bro,

Used to play in a Twilight 2000 game years ago. As the group was making it's way across Europe, we found an unused ADM that the GM was expecting us to use up to solve the current plot. Well, we managed to solve the situation without going all mini-nuke, and the GM forgot to resolve the fact that we had the device now. The guy playing our quartermaster had like everything, I mean *EVERYTHING*, our unit had written out; he hid the ADM in our inventory list among the list of individual spices that were a part of our mess. So, a few games later, we have a rather intractable situation involving a dam needing to be destroyed and a unit of Spetznatz holding it. Our leader says, 'No problem. We wait until dark and then set the ADM to blow the dam.' GM: "Wait...how do you have an ADM? You left that thing behind.' Leader: 'Nope. Still got it.' GM: 'What? It not on your inventory sheet?' Quartermaster: 'Sure it is. It's listed in-between the cumin and oregano.' GM: 'FFUUUUUUUUUU.....'
