Re: [HOE] A Junker question

Thanks man, I spoke with him and we just had 
misunderstanding, he's allowing it to work. But thanks alot.
I do agree with you, it does seem odd that a 
predator like effect is easier to pull off then a 
radar jammer. Thought you guys might like to see 
my design. Before you go all crazy, my marshal 
did rule that a familiar doesn't have to be frame 
2, it just wants that size body. I'm attaching my 
writeup, see below. I also now wanted people's 
input on my design mentality. I've decided to go 
modular with my junker stuff. Why add targeting 
every gun I build, when I can make a single 
targeting computer with vtol and commo. So it'll 
calculate the targeting from all my guns, because 
they paint their target with a laser, and then 
beam the info to a set of standard goggles 
equipped with a radio. Which can also get data 
from my long range video sensor to make 
binoculars, or sonar, spirit scan, or anything.

Sorry I'm so late in replying... :)

I think visual ECM is clearly intended to work on all visual sensors, like a
predator cloak. Of course, your marshall can rule it however he wants. Here's a
house rule that you might ask him to consider, if 
he thinks near-invisibility is
too easy to achieve:
