Hey folks.
So I've been itching to finally get to play SR4 since it's been ages since I've gotten to play any SR at all. Used to play on SR: Seattle MUSH back in the day, but thats been about it. I do, however, have all the 4th ed books (or at least all the core books etc).
I do have a few questions however, before I try making up a PC to play here and get into things.
1) I'm assuming standard 400BP build?
2) Is there any limitation what one is allowed to at least try and build within the set BP Limit? (I cant seem to find any listing of rulings on this). Specifically I'm wondering if say.. I wanted to try to build an alternative character out of the optional rules in Runners Companion. Alternative metatypes, shapeshifters, drakes, infected all that fun stuff.
3) Is there anything specificaly that people need or would like to see more of role wise? (Decker, Street sam, spell slinger, rigger etc)
