[HoE] Cyborg Questions
<<1) A table is missing. There is no Stockpile table, which is reffered
to in the #7 Rule of Engagement.>>
This probably refers to the Search And Destroy Table, and is just misnamed.
<<2)The Spurs have two listed Defensive Bonuses. The Chart on page 110
says +2, but the listing itself says +1. Which is correct?>>
By comparing it to other wepons of similar length, etc, I'd give the Spur a DB
of +1.
<<3) Hard Point systems: Do they just add slots for more stuff to go on
to? Do the hardpoints themselves take up a slot? If so, then the Head Hard
Point is rather useless, since it would merely replace itself.>>
Hard Points allow the can to mount external weapons or systems to himself.
They're not the same as Mount Locations. The external wepons you can have start
on page 103, and there's rules for making external systems in the Deadlands
Dispatch.
<<4) Some Equipment lists Light or Heavy in the mount section. Does this
mean it can only go on a corresponding Hard Point system? (ie Light on the
Light system and Heavy on the Heavy system)>>
You're confusing the external weapons with the internal systems. See the answer
to the last question.
<<5) Only some of the Harrowed powers are listed in the book. I assume
the powers from Book o' the Dead are still valid, unless updated in Cyborgs
or the HoE main book, right?>>
Some are less useful now than before, but they should all be valid...
<<6) Is a Can without a SRU stuck with their damage (to their Equipment,
that is), barring they or a convineint Junker comes along with a Cybertech
or Repair skill?>>
Or the Duct Tape power. But, all cans get an SRU for free, it was just left off
the systems chart and mount sheet. I imagine this is why the torso is listed as
having 9 Mounts in some places, and 10 in others. The 1 slot difference is for
the SRU.
<<7) One Unusual Background Result gives a Harrowed power at level 1, but
the book says Cyborgs cannot use Harrowed powers without a Power Focus or
the unfettered hindrance. Will a Harrowed power from the background still
work for a Can?>>
This is interesting. Since the source of the power is supposed to be an Ancient
Pact, it should come from somewhere other than the Harrowed's manitou. I'd let
someone keep in if it were my game.
<<8) The Mounts Chart on page 83 has a listing for Replacement Mount #s
for the locations, but no mention of a cost for having replacement
limbs/parts. Is there a cost, or are replacement parts just obviously
inorganic, or is it something completely different?>>
Replacement Limbs are listed in the systems, page 88-90.
<<9) This is actually an old Junkman Cometh Q: Did Rocket Man ever get a
TN? It wasn't in the Cyborg Errata section, and I kinda want to know for my
Campaign.>>
Can't help ya there...the memory ain't what it used to was...
