Introduction

Full Body Conversions A new view This is the material with which my quest has begun – a sourcebook detailing the problems of Full Body Conversions in Cyberpunk 2020. In Cyberwares of the World I present solutions I came to, when I had to face the questions of full ‘borgs. This sourcebook is also known under it’s unofficial name, “CheapFBC”, and is available on the Net – probably at the same source where you’ve grabbed CotW. Some parts of the CheapFBC have been directly implemented into CotW. Note: the current version is edition 2.8. However, previous ones can be still in circulation.

In the beginning there was only one kind of cyberware. One type of leg, one type of arm, one type of eye… you got the point. And for a time, it was good. However, as additional sourcebooks for Cyberpunk 2020 were issued, new types of cyberwares began to emerge. Never as complete systems, but merely hints of such. Orbital Cyberarm in Chromebook 1. Russian arms, legs, eyes and ears in Solo of Fortune (re-made and published again in Chromebook 4). And for a time, it was good. But I came to wonder. We had Russian stuff, we had hints of Orbital stuff, soon we had some outdated (Enabledseries in Chromebook 3) stuff as well. We had some ideas on top of that – we knew that European cyberwares caused lower Humanity Loss. That out there, somewhere, was bleeding edge Japanese cybertechnology (who haven’t heard about Chiba black clinics?). Some guys on the Net (kudos to Hound and his excellent Blackhammer Datafort) began inventing even more bizarre trends – NuTek, Skeletal cyberware, Chinese cyberware. Still, there was no coherent system. When I began thinking about how Full Body Conversions should be ran, this problem was what jumped into my mind. At that moment, I wasn’t able to do more than just cyberlimbs in various technologies. However, I kept collecting the ideas, and, with help from the great bunch of VftE members, I’ve finally managed to fill some niches. Also, CheapFBC – which, in the meantime, has grown from a scratch into a mighty, 130-page long, fully illustrated netbook – has provided me with a handful of useful bits. And thus here we go. As for now, the Cyberwares of the World covers cyberlimbs, optics, audio systems, voice systems (vocoboxes), implanted body armor and neuralware. While I’m still thinking about covering more areas, it’s proving to be more and more difficult. Still, I hope to do it somewhen, so this sourcebook will probably grow in size. In the mean

time, enjoy what has already been done. Master tables – you’ll find a “master table” in the Cyberware compatibility beginning of every chapter So you have an IEC Cyberarm Advanced limb module, Arasaka Neotech devoted to specific cyberware ToolHand attached to it, with Tritech built-in TV, and cheap, no-name plastic type. It contains the usual kinds cover, and you want it to work flawless? of this cyberware that can be Sure, no problem. And easier than someone could think. All the cybertech use encountered. For example, we the same standards and basic technology. Much like PC computers of the have standard cybereyes, Bug early 2000s – it doesn’t matter what parts your computer did have inside. You eyes, monovisors, and several could use parts made by a dozens of producers around the world, put together other types. Most of them are in a place you never heard about, and have a working computer. You don’t listed in that table for easier have to install only Dell parts, or only IBM parts. And, because the technology reference. However, some, used, and common standards, all that works together. Sure, some parts are less-popular types (or those that better, others are not so brilliant, and some can be a complete waste of money. were not as universal) were Good parts will give you better performance. They may be also less damageomitted. Also, I wasn’t able to prone, or last longer. But still, it works, and you can use the computer to do list every idea people did what you need it for – write texts, surf the Net, play games. published on the Net. But, Simply, it worked together, because it was designed to. having the typical ones for And with cyberware, it goes along the same lines. reference, you should be able to deal with any un-standard piece Including some unexplainable glitches, like the ones that used to ruin a day you might wish to have made in worth of your text writing in the early 2000s. some obscure technology… - senior officer Mikael van Atta

Problems in CyberParadise – these boxes point out possible and – if you give it a thought – pretty obvious problems with various kinds of cyberware in typical life and RPG situations. Things you usually hadn’t thought about…

General guide to the different cyberware design philosophies around the world: Standard cyberware - That’s what we are used to, typical 2020-era cyberware, right out of the Cyberpunk 2020 handbook. This is what everyone does compare other styles to. Standard cyberware is being produced around the world. Skeletal cyberware - This form of cyberware is very basic and robotic in appearance, all servos and mechanics are clearly visible (for an example, a skeletal cybereye will clearly have a camera-type look). It's clearly obvious that the cyberware is not human in appearance. Brazilian cyberware - Brazilian cybernetics are conceptually close to European: they try to appear as human as possible. However, they do not keep up the raw power output of standard and European style cybernetics (this originates from the fact that in Brazil, superhuman-strength cyberlimbs are outlawed), and not as durable. Still, for everyday use they’re absolutely okay. They’re replacements, not replace-and-upgrade technology, and if you accept this idea, they’ll suit you just fine. And they come with a nice price tag, making them quite popular around the world. Chinese cyberwares - “Chinese cybertech” became a synonym of cheap, unreliable cyberware. Not that it comes only from China (Malaysia, Indonesia, India and some other countries have their share in this sector of market as well) or that Chinese can’t manufacture quality stuff (they do). But the proverbial “Chinese take-away” suffers from the effects of inferior materials, manufacturing, and lack of adequate quality control, when trying to match performance of the standard cyberware with a much lower price tag. These tend to be always flawed with some problems. But hey, they’re cheap, and you get what you’ve paid for. NuTek cyberware - This is a completely new idea. NuTek is something in-between cyberware and bioware: implants build of carefully blended cloned flesh and nano-build electronics. Whereas not necessary the best of both worlds, it does combine a number of advantages, including easier implantation, lower Humanity Loss, and the real feel of living tissue. Note: NuTek can’t be used for FBC construction. Russian cyberware - This is a generic term – most of these cyberwares does come from Russia (and post-Soviet republics), but also from Eastern Europe, and there’s at least one company in North America (Mexican Metals) that makes cyberware classified as “Russian”. These cyberwares see to be quite primitive compared to Western standards, but if you can see past their brutish look, they’re marvels of technology. Behind the former Iron Curtain, they do not jump to the newest materials, and they do not peel off safety margins to squeeze out a bit of extra performance. Instead, they do miracles with what they already know. Sure, this gives out crude cybernetics, and optional equipment may be limited, but Russian cyberwares are like AK-47: they do not fail. No matter what you do and where, they remain as tough and reliable, if somewhat clumsy. Outdated technology These „Early” cyberware cyberwares are pre-2013 era replacements and In some descriptions of the Outdated technology, there augmentations. Big, obvious and clumsy, they comes a description „only the most basic options”. While tend to combine flaws of several modern styles. it is to reflect the Outdated cybertech can work only with However, they are quite tough, and can options that were available at the time of its creation, it sometimes have various interesting solutions and may be understood in various means. ideas utilized, that weren’t however used in later Therefore I explain: if it isn’t in the CP2020 core book, it models. They’re generally not produced any wasn’t around in that time. And thus Outdated cyberware longer, and most of these are available only won’t work with it. Clear? thorough second-hand market. Of course, - Mike van Atta custom manufacturing can make a difference, but then you should expect sky-high prices. Orbital cyberware - The pinnacle of modern cybertech. Using exotic and durable materials developed solely on orbital installations, the durability and sensory data quality of these masterpieces is staggering but the downside is that the costs are tripled. Only available on special order, but you tend to get what you paid for (now you know where that spoiled corporate brat got his totally chilly orbital crystal plated cyberoptics). Can be made almost indistinguishable from a normal human body part, but usually plated with materials not normally available on the open market. Also, several other types of cyberware can be made in Orbital technology, linking great design with superior materials. Also, orbital cyberwares are quite often equipped with EMP shielding, for safety reasons when in orbit.

EuroCyberware - It is, generally, perfectly suited for hiding as a part of real body, undistinguishable from it. Generally, it requires 1 level higher Awareness to spot it with a naked eye, and as they are so non-obvious, Humanity Loss is lower – so it comes with a healthy price tag. Most of these are German, Swiss or Scandinavian models renowed for their durability, although French, Spanish Option costs: and Italian have gained popularity thanks to better prices Unless otherwise noted, options do cost the and clever marketing. same amount of both cash and HL, no matter Japanese cyberware - This cybernetics are which technology they are made in. The only marvels of micromachine engineering. Whatever you do, distinctive exception is Japanese and Japanese Japanese can make more advanced and smaller. And High Tech – you need specially made, the processors in their cyberwares are much more miniature Japanese option packages to utilize advanced, allowing them to handle more peripheral all these additional spaces and other goodies equipment. It differs from series to series, but most (i.e. increased effectiveness of Japanese Japanese cyberwares can handle 25% more options, neuralware). The cost modifier for such options and some even 50% more than their Western is the same as for the cyberware itself. When equivalents. Of course, said peripherals and options have used on other types, Japanese options provide to be Japanese tech as well, and are priced accordingly. no superior performance. They do come mostly from Japan, but the term is as - Mike van Atta generic as any – there are Korean companies that make this type of stuff as well, and at least one Chinese producer keeps within these standards.

Technological advance Borrowed from CheapFBC Let’s face it: no piece of gear is the bleeding edge forever. The Murphy’s Law for Computers says that the best, fastest, most powerful machine ever made becomes obsolete just in the moment you pay for it. And so it is with cybernetics. The technological advance is a problem often neglected in Role-Playing Games, and while within the fantasy genre it isn’t much of a problem. But in cyberpunk, when the new, revolutionary tech is one of the things it’s all about, it becomes an issue. And then, it’s supposed to go much faster than what I can see from my window. Yesterday’s bleeding edge is today’s everyday use. Tomorrow it’ll become so common you won’t be able to imagine yourself living without it. In two days, a new, more advanced version will appear to take the market, and yesterday’s marvel will become so cheap and common that they’ll almost start adding it as a freebie to cornflakes. And in three days, you’ll be able to find it only in a pawn shop, and nobody will be interested in buying it. Sure, it doesn’t go literally that fast, but that’s the idea. We can’t predict what will appear next on the cyberware market. What revolutionary changes will come, or when they will come. However, here you’ll find a quick guideline. Use it as you prefer.

Cyberwares of the World Rule #1:

1 space = 1 space We assume that spaces in cyberware do not change with user’s BOD (contrary to CP2020 standard rules, where you could for example put a bigger gun in the cyberleg holster, if the leg was bigger). Here, a space is a set amount of volume in cubic centimeters, which, however, can be shaped as you need it.

Cyberlimbs of the World Cyberlimb types presented in CP2020 sourcebooks, and how od we deal with them in Cyberwares of the World: Standard: not much to say, it’s standard. Soviet / SovWear: it becomes Russian technology / style. Orbital Crystal: we do have Orbital cyberwares of great durability, but the look itself should be resolved by “superstyle” rule, described in Romanova Cyberlegs text box. Romanova Cyberlegs: there’s a separate text box on these, introducing the “superstyle” concept. SuperSized Arm: a paragraph here deals with size of cyberlimbs, also - oversized cyberlimbs. Not just arms… Corvette Cyberlegs and Speeding Bullet system are described separately, in their own text box. Bioechanical Arm (from Interface) was an experimental system anyway, but it is well represented by NuTek cyberwares. Wet Bar leg and tentacle arms have their own boxes. - Mike van Atta

De facto this is what has started the whole Cyberwares of the World idea. These rules & tables were presented in CheapFBC as well, if in a slightly different form. Usually players are not concerned about the wide variety of market-available cyberlimbs. A cyberarm is a cyberarm, and it doesn’t matter whether we’re talking about Raven Microcyb model F-24, Arasaka Neotech Type 17, or IEC Cyberarm Advanced (or whatever the brand name is). But – as with modern day computers – cyberware is produced in numerous styles and technologies, limited only with prices and market demand on them. By the way – didn’t you ever wonder that all cyberlimbs do have the same damage resistance, and can house the very same number of additional modules (optionware)? Doesn’t matter whether we’re talking about a sleek, thin arm for a tiny lady, or a huge and „muscular” arm for a cybernetic body builder, all are alike... And here we are. Cyberlimb size: first, the rule is that anybody buys him/herself a limb that matches his body type (BOD value). You can use another size of a limb, but this is pretty obvious for anyone observing you, and raises limb’s HL by 50%. Superhuman-range (Body 11+) limbs are usually built on a special request only. Remember to add whole body’s damage bonus to hits caused by cyberlimbs – the damage dealt is as well a matter of the limb’s How do built-in options emerge from a

strength, as the strength of whole body. As you can clearly see, SDP and amount of option slots do vary depending on arm’s size. A typical CP2020 value is listed as Average – sized cyberware, with book price matching it. There’s also an additional column with ‘ware prices, listed as „Cheap cybertech”. Well, as these tables and rules come from CheapFBC, a sourcebook was meant to help creating more affordable FBCs, the prices for parts have been to be seriously reduced. However, a BOD 12 part will cost as much as a standard such piece of cyberware right from the main book (please remember that, according to CP2020 supplements, cyberlimbs are equivalent of BOD 12). Limbware interfaces are something many people forget about. You have to remember that a cyberlimb module (arm, leg, partial arm / leg or independent hand) isn’t just bolted onto your flesh and bone shoulder, hip, knee, and so on. It has to be bolted into a special socket for such appliance. Whether such a socket is installed on a live flesh or on another part of cyberware, this is another kettle of fish. More – your typical cyberarm has two points with such interface sockets / links: one at shoulder (to allow the arm to be linked to the rest of the body, cyborg or flesh) and at the wrist, to allow a cyberhand to be installed. These interface sockets do not have any apparent Humanity Loss assigned, as this relies on what would you attach to them. They have no apparent cost also, as this is included into an implantation cost of your metal limb. But nevertheless, they are there. Your arm can be disconnected and taken away in a matter of minutes, by a skilled cybertechnican (or in seconds by anyone, if you have quick change mounts), but that does not mean your bones and nerves do lay there bare and unprotected – the

limb, without damaging the cover? First, not all of the built-ins have to be easily accessible. Quite a number of them need to be reached for maintenance purposes only, which isn't a problem, if you consider specialized tools cybertechnicans do use. A number of options, however, need to emerge from the limb - built-in weapons are one of the most classical examples. These are placed within appropriately-prepared chambers, which keep the required environmental rigors, thorough access panels in the cover. Whereas access panels in most covers are easy to imagine (however, please remember they are usually made to not be visible when not in use), it goes more difficult when there are Realskinned limbs on the agenda (not to mention more advanced Skins). How is it done? By a "flesh" seal, very similar to the one used in subdermal pockets. However, unlike a subdermal pocket, it doesn’t have to be pressure-sensitive, and easily openable form the outside. The main book calls for Diff 20 to detect a subdermal pocket - and since cyberlimb popup accessory covers are even better, I'd call for Diff 25 here... if you know what you're looking for first! - Mike van Atta

socket core, built around your bone, is still in place covering them. Pressure and heat sensors, responsible for SDP rating for Cyberlimbs the sense of touch, are built into cyberlimbs and torso. The way I’ve dealt with cyberlimb SDP You can, of course, boost their sensitivity by installing in the CheapFBC 2.5 (and previous editions as Tactile Booster, and analogical modules. well) was simply a mechanical improvement of Clumsy limbs: some types of cyberlimb the original CP2020 rules. However, it bears technology create equipment that fails to meet several flaws – including the fact there’s always a standards. However, modifiers caused by these are not 10 point difference between “disabled” and simply cumulative. E.g. If you have a Chinese “destroyed” status. It becomes especially visible cyberarm, you are at –1 Ref and –3 tech to all actions when we get into the realm of high-SDP involving this arm. If you have a Chinese cyberbody, cyberlimbs. Thanks to the Taking Damage rules, you still are on –1 Ref and –3 Tech, just now this introduced in 2.5 ed., we can now rule that applies to all actions performed with your body (driving Disabled level is 66% of the total SDP of a a cyberlinked vehicle, for example, is usually cyberlimb. unaffected). So, just to be clear: the SDP ratings in Additional SDP: Within the limits of particular the tables below are according to original CP2020 technology, a cyberlimb can be produced with better rules. If you ant to use the CheapFBC 2.8 quality standards, using better grade (and thus more standard, refer to the “Taking damage” resistant) materials, or just with sturdier construction. paragraph. An additional 10% SDP costs 20% of the part’s cost. - Mikael van Atta However, you cannot go for more than 50% SDP this way. Cheap cybertech, made with poor quality control, and with your generic materials, is of course cheaper – every 10% less SDP gives you 5% cost save. Again, it cannot be less than –50% SDP total if the limb has to be working. Yup, even among Chinese cyberarms you can find sturdier models, and really cheap trash... Independent cyberhand: (wrist-down) can use 4 cyberfingers or a single cyberarm option (GM’s call, most cyberweapons are too big). Almost any cyberhand variant is available (+50% price).

European cyberlimbs: human-looking by the very conception, European cyberlimbs are designed for realskinning, and they have smooth control interfaces.

However, if you really think you have an application for a stronger arm (or leg), there are three general ways to achieve that: Tighter myomars (total BOD stat bought as optional: enhanced performance, 10% of the part’s cost per BOD point) will do the job. You cannot, however, raise the strength this way more than 8 points over your BODY. And this trick doesn’t use option spaces. Second generation myomars (strengthened myomars from the main book) can be also used. However, they are much bulkier (eat 25% spaces of the body part), and their cost is 40% of the body part This trick doubles part’s strength. Superfast cyberlegs There are two interesting sets of cyberware, boosting one’s Movement Ability considerably: Speeding Bullet (Solo of Fortune 1) and Corvette Cyberlegs (Chromebook 4). Speeding Bullet gives a flat MA of 16. Corvette comes in two variants of +3 and +8 MA. Both systems require a pair of specially modified cyberlegs, as well as an additional CR level surgery to strengthen your pelvis, lower spine and lower ribcage, as well as joints. I’ll deal with the modification here, as the unmodified legs are standard models. Speeding Bullet (aka RoadRunner) costs 500e$, and takes 75% spaces in each legs (it is 75% of the total, including the space reserved for cyberfoot). HL is 4d6, due to the fact the system is pretty invasive and user’s interface somewhat primitive. Other parameters are unaffected, although with the 10m jump ability, a flying kick is going to really hurt. Also, Speeding Bullet can’t be used with legs that have boosted strength of any kind. Corvette legs are a more advanced form of the Speeding Bullet. They’re based on a variant of Advanced Myomars, which has to be installed (for the normal cost) . Then, movement augmenting package and power flow control system are installed, boosting the MA by +3 (500e$, HL 3d6) or +8 (upgrade pack, +500e$, +4 HL, requires the basic system). Also, respectively, a +1 / +2 bonus to all movement rolls is applied. - Mike van Atta

Romanova Cyberlegs aka “Superstylish” cyberlimbs These were originally presented in Chromebook 3 – a pair of shapely cyberlegs with stiletto-heel feet, granting +1 to Wardrobe & Style. Okay. Here we are. The Romanovas are just a sample of what we call “superstyle” cybernetics. Cyberwares designed to look good, which implies they are to look like cybernetics, not natural body parts (however, this is up to GM). How the designers do achieve this – by some fancy coloring, or maybe rather by elements made of precious metals or gems used to incrustate the cover –this varies from piece to piece. Most popular are semi-precious gemstones, but if you really want a diamond - incrusted cyberarm, it can be done. The basic cost is +25% for a +1 W&S modifier (GM’s call whether multiple levels of this bonus can be achieved). There’s no extra HL nor any spaces are taken. However, Realskinn and it’s variants can’t be effective (although they can be applied). While this is simple by rules, it’s more complicated in life. First, the bonus is granted only if the “Superstylish” part is visible. A single arm will pass on a human, but not on a ‘borg – it should have matching arms (not necessary looking the same, but designed to fit the style together) – most likely along with the body. Legs are usually used in pairs, even on fleshies. Also, since this kind of jewellery can’t be easily changed, it’s important to wear appropriate clothing if you do not want to spoil the effect… - Mike van Atta Hydraulics can be used for the same price and space requirements, but there's no way such a body part could be made to look human. The part’s strength is tripled (sic!). Cyberlimbs as a recoil absorber If you apply Recoil rules (from Solo of Fortune 2 / Blackhand’s Street Weapons) you might

wonder how the cyborg arms work with that effect.

Tentacle cyberarm Okay, we’re here, and I’m to cover this abomination just for completeness sake. It’s twisted, and what I would call “completely sick”, but it is there in the books, and so it should be here. A Tentacle limb (well, technologically speaking, legs are possible as well) has following characteristics: Model SDP HL Damage spaces price dealt Tentacle 66% 250% 100% none 133% Extendable Tentacle 66 250% 100% none 200% Although they lack option spaces, they can still be equipped with Ripper blades in the tips, and 2nd Generation Myomers. A typical limb consists of 8 tentacles, that have combined strength equal to the listed. Individual tentacles have strength of 1/8 listed, minimum 2. - Mike van Atta

In original rules, cyberarm was treated as an equivalent of a BOD 12., i.e. twice the BOD of an average human. However, this was a bit out of nowhere. So, keep the limit your BOD shows (upping your arm’s Strength comes handy here). After all, maybe your arm is going to absorb the recoil, but your meat still will have to keep this damned handcannon on target!

Covering the cyberlimbs

You can leave your cyberlimbs uncovered, but that’s not a wise move. They would be unprotected from elements. Would you want to electrocute yourself under a shower, because of your cyberarm short-circuiting? True, I do exaggerate. Safety will jack in, and kill all the electricity in the said arm. Still, it isn’t a welcomed solution. Better have it covered. The cover can be transparent if you wish, so internal mechanisms will be visible. Some techno-freaks do like it. And don’t worry about loosing the look of your skeletal cyberlimb. Covering of your chosen style will be applied to it, and it will fit like second skin… or rather, like second layer of varnish. Plastic cover – just plastic panels covering your cyberlimbs. For 1 e$, these are dull, pale basic colours. Nothing interesting. More expensive variants are painted, sculpted, made in numerous lifelike colours or transparent. Whatever you wish. As most simple covers, plastic cover does not take option spaces, as it is simply bolted on the external part of the cyberlimb. It also, as all the covers, provides basic waterproofing, so taking a shower won’t short-circuit you. However, don’t try swimming pool (dynamic pressure during jumps or swimming can reach the level of a serious diving depth for a split of a second) or sauna (loads of steam that can penetrate membranes, which are capable of stopping liquid water) with a cheap model – it can hurt you. The more expensive ones don’t have such flaws. SP 20 ballistic nylon – the basic armour for cyberlimbs, known almost as long as the cyberlimbs themselves. These are panels of rigid and elastic (on the joints) ballistic nylon, usually with ceramic scales buried deep inside for added protection. It is usually black, but you could also get a camo variant, if you’d really look for it. Superchrome – cover made of light metal alloys, covered with chrome, nickel, or something similar and shiny (bootleg editions use just shiny paint). Precious metals, like gold, silver, and platinum and so on can also be used, although this causes price to go sky-high. Retro style is also fashionable these times, using copper or brass covers. It offers you similar protection as plastic cover, but every variant of Superchrome requires lot of work to keep it clean and shiny. RealSkin – the early „skin” Cyborg body cover and realism technology, it was in 2013 already in the You’ve probably noticed that an “unit” of covering streets. This imitates human skin, with small material does cost the same money, whether it’s used to scars, hair, discolourments, and so on. A cover a BOD 2, or BOD 12 limb. I admit - it’s not overtly difficult awareness roll is required to tell it realistic. But on the other hand, a model makes sense only as from human skin on casual inspection. long as it’s less detailed than the thing it is to represent. After However, a more detailed check always all, ACPA covers (see Maximum Metal) do cost for the SP unveils its nature. RealSkin has temperature value, not for the size of the ACPA that uses them. So let’s of surroundings, and if cut, it’s just a very, give it a break. very good latex imitation of skin. However, if someone’s so obsessed with realism, ExoDerm – nicknamed also I’d suggest dividing the price of a cover by 6 (average BOD of WarmSkin, this is a late first generation a human), then multiplying it by the actual BOD of whatever upgrade of RealSkin, invented first for the body part you’re going to apply it on. The effect should be original Raven Microcyb’s „Gemini” FBC. pretty realistic… ExoDerm contains tiny wire mesh and its own Myself, I won’t trouble my mind with it: the system power source, thus it is heated up to around that exists so far is detailed enough for my needs. 36,6 degree Celsius (normal temperature of - Mikael van Atta the human body – on some body parts it’s a bit lower). Thanks to this you not only look

human, but are as well warm as human (RealSkin has the temperature of surroundings, so on longer contact or when checked via some form of thermovision it will surely unveil it’s nature). TrueSkin – this is definitely second generation technology (and some may consider it’s even more advanced, third generation tech), TrueSkin is just a step behind a real (or cloned) human skin. First, it is warm like real skin (similar effect as with ExoDerm). Each limb contains also a nanoid tank. The nanoids make the skin grow hair (a default setting is all the hair growing in the places where a live human has them, but this is often tuned into custom settings if you don't want to shave yourself every day for example. The colour and type of hair can be set also). They are artificial, acrylic fibres, but they look like real, and feel like real. And yes, you still have to visit a barber. Unless you set it otherwise (the hair are woven from stocks of raw acrylic material by specialised nanomachines replacing normal human's hair growing cells). They also carry synthetic pheromones and sweat to the places where such should emerge from your skin (again, these uses replenished storages, and can be used for various custom settings). Your fingernails also grow and have to be regularly cut. They act as blood if your skin is punctured / cut / torn (purely for aesthetic reasons, but the nanoid mix looks, smells and tastes like blood. However, a simple optical microscope - or cybereye with microvision ability - is enough to identify it as artificial. Same goes for hair, sweat and so on). And also "heal" punctured skin as well as your natural body heals itself (no, it cannot restore internal SDP of a limb. Only the skin heals!). You have to visit a licensed cybertechnican to replenish material stocks and tune up nanoids (if you want to change your hair colour for example). This costs 100e$ per limb (twice for torso) and should be done once a month. However, if you Cyberlimb Coverings use this system a lot (like heavy sweating or Cover HL Spaces Cost losing significant amounts of "blood" due to Plastic cover 1 0 1-200e$ injuries) it has to be performed more often, SP 20 ballistic nylon 2 0 200e$ usually once a week (such maintenance takes Superchrome 3 0 200e$ one hour).

* Please keep in mind that whereas Optishield gives you several advantages of a cyberoptic, it isn’t a cybereye. It is not connected directly to your optical nerve, so some other options requiring use of cyberoptic won’t work with it. For example, Ambidexterity Chip (advanced variant) or Speedreading Chip won’t work. Optishield is more like an implanted pair of smartgoggles or a HUD than cybereye: while it will display things you could see only thorough cybereyes (or smartgoggles), beneath it you’ll still have a pair of fleh and blood eyes. Of course, you can go for it and replace them with cybereyes too… Note: ThirdEye option is a socket for additional eye, not a cyberoptic itself.

Problems in CyberParadise: Optishield Since optishield does hermetically cover your eyes with an SP8 protection, there’s no way to access your eyes without cybertech’s assistance. This is good as long as you have to deal with folks trying to stick their fingers into your eyes, or simply airborne dust / insects (if you ever tried to remove such a foreign body from your eye, you know what I mean). However, your tear ducts have to be redirected to your mouth, so should you cry, the OptiShield wouldn’t fill with tears. The problem is, there are other glands that, for example, moisturize the eyeball, and residue from their excretions have to be periodically removed (i.e. you just wipe your eyes – impossible with OptiShield on). Protection against chemicals prevents you also from applying drugs onto your eyeball, should you need medication there. Sure, none of the abovementioned problems apply, if you have a pair of cybereyes. Right. Now try to get to them for maintenance purposes, for example refilling the silicon lubricant reservoir that helps the ball move smoothly within you eye socket…

Notes:

Problems in CyberParadise: Cyberaudios and vocoboxes These have a nasty habit of causing feedback in audio equipment - microphones, loud-speakers and such. The effect is painful to hear ... for everybody, if you were using a vocobox, or for yourself (cyberaudio). The effect is so bad it has been known to stun people for a moment, and - since the problem is audible for the user only, as there's no sound in the outside - level damper doesn't help at all (pain editor does, however).

I guesstimated Attr loss after similar Subdermal stuff. Use it, or lose it. ** Cyberfacial Remounts seem to be an idea from someone with a weird taste for inhuman cyberware. My first idea was to treat them as Skeletal tech at the very start, no variants available. Yet even these can be made uglier and more blatantly inhuman. And applying some tech principles here could lead to nonsense results. Use with care! Note: some cybertech will be offering modifiers to Notice Difficulty. These should be applied where there is any Notice Difficulty. A Difficulty of 0 means automatic notice. However, if an Automatically noticeable gear gets some levels in notice Difficulty, you may opt to make it “not instantly recognizable as armor”. GM’s call here!

Problems in CyberParadise: Cyberarmors First, keep in mind that these armors are worn under your clothes, which means the clothes will get ruined by the attack, even if it was stopped by the armor. With subdermal armor, this also means there’s some skin over it, including blood vessels, and the attack is likely to damage these. While it poses no danger to one’s life and health (no more than a shaving cut), the blood is going to stain one’s clothes. Second, a microwave emitter’s effect isn’t going to be stopped by a cyberarmor. It heats and harms you, if the microwaves themselves weren’t able to boil your flesh. If you’re wearing a cheap model, chance is that metal inserts have been used in it, and they’ll heat even better, aggravating the damage (damage x2, GM call). (continued next box)

Contact poisons will also work their way – either to the skin, under which the armor is hidden, or, in case of external armor / body plating, thorough the plate itself. After all, it has to stop bullets & blades, yet allowing skin to breathe (the material is microporous… and that is enough for a toxin to work. These things usually do have great penetrating ability). Keep in mind that, however, this applies only to toxins that are sprayed onto the target (e.g. with a paintball gun). If the method of delivery is a dart or other projectile, it still has to penetrate external armor. Subdermal armors are ineffective. Third, if any surgery has to be performed on a person with an implanted armor, the implant has to be at least partially removed. No scalpel is able to penetrate armor plating (although monofilament ones can deal with thin Skinweaves), at least not without using a lot of strength – and thus loosing precision. This means that first aid on an armored body part will be limited to applying a basic wound dressing on the outside. Under field conditions, there will be no way to do anything with internal damage, and even a fully-equipped surgical ward will need to lose precious time removing the armor. Fourth, it hasn’t been said in the books, whether the implanted armors cover both front and rear of the torso. If these are just breastplates, then your back is unprotected. Also, a high-energy projectile attack with good penetration has a nice chance of penetrating the first layer, passing thorough your body and bouncing off the second layer on your back, to pass thorough your body once again, causing a whole lot of mess. A similar problem was observed by troops wearing personal armors in 1990s. Fifth, remember that should your body drastically change it’s size (due to implants like Muscle Grafts, pregnancy, or perhaps just getting fat), your armor has to be removed and resized. Otherwise you have a chance of becoming too big in an armor too small. Sounds fun, but can kill you. - Mike van Atta

Neuralwares of the World Neuralware was a particularly tough nut to crack. It consists of many elements that do different things, and the only ones that can’t be pointed at and said simply “options” aren’t doing much in the mechanical part of the game – they have no option spaces, no SDP, no skill modifiers. But hey- it took me quite a while to deal with this problem, however, I finally made it. Effectiveness – in some early stage, this was intended to be a catch-all, universal rule for all cyberware. I went for the simpler rules, but Effectiveness finally made it back it this section. How does it work? Let’s say you have an implant that provides you +2 to some skill. So, +2 is the nominal, 100% effectiveness. So, a cheap copy of your implant would have only 50% effectiveness – it would grant +1 to the said skill. Okay, but what about the situations when the number isn’t even? How to define 50% effectiveness of a +1 implant? There are two ways. Either there’s 50% chance the thing would work, every time it is used, or you may roll once, upon installation, to check whether the character will get the +1 bonus, or not. In both cases, we assume the implant is working… it’s just a matter of determining whether the boost is significant enough to provide that +1 boost, or it’s too weak for that.

Simply, I see no way how neuralware can be made more “skeletal” and “robot-like”… Same goes with Russian and Brazilian. Russian – whereas Russian neuralwares might look like something a knife-happy surgeon got from an do-it-yourself shop, they match world standards. Brazillian – there is no distinctive Brazilian style in neuralwares, and processors produced there do match world standard in any aspect.

Cyberweapons of the world Melee Cyberweapons Master Table Since the original rules were a bit inconsistent, I’ve changed a few stats. Mainly, the HL for some cyberweapons was reduced to make it proportional. Please note that according to Chromebook 2, in the Exotic chapter, there’s a possibility to install Scratchers & Rippers (apart form regular Natural Claws, which implies those are standard, cybernetic versions) for 1d6 HL less than listed in the CP2020 main book. This is explained as “Low HL due to implantation in a hospital”. Which, simply speaking, implies that cyberweapon’s HL isn’t all that high, just a matter of the usual way of getting these in a ripperdoc’s clinic. Type HL Notice** Diff.

Hollow Teeth Adaptation allows any teeth implant (from natural fangs to the most bizarre cyberjaw) to inject poison / drug. Generally only canines have the ducts for poison. Can be used on natural teeth. Hollow Claw Adaptation does mostly the same for bladed bodyweapon. Poison Sac is a reservoir holding 4 doses of a drug / poison to be applied by the means of hollow tooth / claw they are linked to. Poison Gland – has to be implanted into living flesh – does the same, but is able to produce the drug / poison. Two variants: one is linked to the hollow teeth, the other excretes it’s content on hand blades (rippers, scratchers etc). Cost for poison glands varies by drug: Sleep, nausea or somatic glands cost 500e$, Hallucinogen is 800e$ hands / 500e$ teeth, and Biotoxin type 1 is 1’000e$ teeth / 1’100e$ hands. Searching for cyberweapons: Most of the time, you want these to remain concealed. It is assumed that the primary method of detection is visual observation. If the weapon is under the cover of a Skinned limb, use Skin’s detection value if it’s higher. Keep in mind that those values – except for a few actually listed in the books – were simply guesstimated. Lab only – this cyberware cannot be identified with bare eyes & hands, even if closely inspected – metal detectors, microscopes and such are needed to recognize it. Observation / glance (o/g) – this is the difficulty of spotting the cyberware during a search / prolonged observation and as a result of accidental / momentary observation.

Cyberarm Blades How do I see it This is an old problem. What you can see in the Book of Forgotten Tech of the CheapFBC, is merely accepting the status quo. However, it needed a more serious approach. Many of the cyberweapons in Cyberpunk came there because they “looked cool”, without any regards for realism. The “wolvers” are a good example of it: they were literally stolen from the X-Men comic books. Sure, these are cool. But first, they’re not going to deal 3d6 damage. They’re thin, thinner than knives, and not much longer. Sure, we could agree that each of these blades equals a knife, and since there are 3 of them… Whoops, wrong point. See, if you shoot 3 bullets, each worth 1d6 (.22) damage, you do not roll 3d6 versus the armor. You check each of the bullets separately. And the same it goes with wolvers. Suddenly, it’s not that lethal, right? Still, if they hit someone unarmored, they’re going to make real mess… Not to mention the way these are implanted, housed, and deployed. For example, wolvers are usually shown reaching circa 30 cm from their access points in the back of the hand. Now, make a simple exercise: take a ruler, and check how you’re going to hide these 30 cm in your forearm. Unless you’re really big, this is impossible. Not to mention you wouldn’t have more than 3-5 cm of the blade still in the housing on the back of your hand. What does this mean? Circa a 15:1 leverage ratio when you hit anything with a slash of your wolvers. Now, if these are housed in a flesh arm, this is pretty

likely to tear them out and apart. A real pain, not to mention screwing your blades… and leaving a lot of your blood spilled around the scene. Rippers. Sure, that’s cool, having blades springing out from your fingertips. But 5-7cm length depicted in the rulebook would require taking place within the finger, up to a second joint. Whether the finger would be replaced with artificial one or left biological, it would have to be stiff. Simply, with a 5 cm blade inside it won’t be flexible at all. So no bending your fingers any longer. And this is damn uncomfortable. The only option is to have rippers like Molly had – small, flat, double-edged blades under your fingernails. Taking my hand as an example (I’m 182 cm / almost 6’ tall, on my better days), this would mean no more than 2 cm blades, and that’s the best assumption. I’d guesstimate that 50% of the blade’s length would have to stay inside of the finger, anchored Votum separatum on cutting there and acting as counter-lever. What we are left with, are weapons damage essentially scratchers. Not that you can’t kill someone with them, What I'm saying is that a but this wouldn’t be so easy. broadsword does about as much But then there are cyberarms. You can use a much more damage as a .22LR (which is space in these, since you don’t have to worry about veins, bones, under-rated in CP2020) and a 2muscles and nerves – their cybernetic equivalents can be arranged handed weapon like a greatsword/ as you wish to allow installing whatever-you-wish inside. Still, the axe/ polearm hits about the blade can’t be longer than the part it is housed in. damage of a 9mm. One thing to But then why not make it fold? A typical folding knife remember about "damage" in an consists of a blade, and a handle that covers the blade when RPG is that it's not about cutting folded. But change the handle for a twin-blade set that would cover power; it's about the chances the primary blade when folded, maybe add a third such a segment target X will be dropped by an to house these two, and attach the butt-end of the whole assembly attack with this weapon in one to the cyberarm’s wrist. It’s all nice and dandy when folded – it shot. If I hack off a limb with one hides within the forearm. When deployed, the segments unfold, and hit with a broadsword is the the hand (useless for the time) is moved out of the way, usually to immediate result any different than the underarm. In a moment, you have a blade that is almost 2, shattering the bone with a 9mm sometimes 3 times as long as your forearm. round? Sure, it has its weak points: the joints. But still, it’s an - Psychophipps impressive blade, which can rival proper melee weapons. Since the way they are linked to the arm, such blades can’t be used for proper fencing – you lack the wrist mobility needed for those fancy movements. Also, due to their length, everything larger than a knife-length (well, maybe short-sword, in a pinch) are too unwieldy to be effective as thrusting weapon. Still, as cutting (or rather cleaving…) blades, these work pretty well. They have the proper length, and although the lower parts of the blade tend to be sharpened as well, you usually use only up to top 1/3 part of the blade to actually hit the target the rest is mainly to provide the reach and leverage. The rules below will allow you to create cyberlimb blades under the abovementioned mechanics. Please note that damage listings are my guesstimations, and they do not equal damage listings given in CP2020 official rules. Use them, or lose them – I needed them mainly to reflect the scale. Take in mind that this takes different approach to conceal ability: blades tend to be flat, long objects, so one that could be strapped to a shin or forearm and hidden in a sleeve of one’s cloth (P conceal ability) won’t necessarily fit into a pocket (also P conceal ability) – CP conceal ability rules were invented for guns.

Spaces used: 1 per damage die. However, the blade can’t take more than 50% of a cyberlimb’s total spaces. So, under CheapFBC rules, an Average-sized (Bod 5-7) cyberarm, that can hold 4 spaces, can’t house anything bigger than a machete-sized (2d6 damage, 3d6 HL) blade. Cost: 50e$, +100e$ / damage die. The abovementioned machete would thus cost 250e$.

Optionally, the top part of the blade (the one you use to cut) can be made out of monocrystal, giving it +1d6 damage extra. It costs +300% of the system (not +500% as in typical rules, because the monocrystal blade makes only a part of the whole assembly).

Psiberserker’s rule: When dealing with wounds from bladed weapons, apply 1 extra damage per turn per 1d6 of the weapon’s damage, due to bloodloss. A successful dressing of the wound stops it. - Psiberserker

To have the action, a scissor-lift mechanism and hide- Mike van Atta away doors would cost you too much money and make the design overcomplicated. KISS the problem. Keep It Simple, Stupid. First of all, this kind of weaponry has the primary principle of being hidden. It is either an assassin’s tool, or a last-ditch defense weapon. Either way, it’s meant rather to be used on a minimum distance, with a surprise advantage. In most cases a gun does not “pop up” from a forearm – rather, a part of the forearm folds down and away, showing the barrel and other access points if required. Note: you can apply the same style modifiers as for other cyberweapons, just keep a GM’s watchful eye to keep away from obviously nonsense results.

Micromissile / Microtorpedo These two differ only by the means of environment they are to be used in. Both are fired using compressed air “cold launch”, with motor engaging about 1 meter from the user. There is a number of variants of these homing weapons, and they are usually implanted in “batteries”. Their advantage, compared to more typical guns, is that you can mount a pretty big one, as there’s no need for a barrel, action or magazine. There’s no recoil as well. In the effect, the launcher is often little more than a transport canister, which opens up to allow the launch. The most typical is the 20mm micro, but it has bigger cousins – 30mm and 40mm micros.

The standard micromissiles, described in Cyberpunk 2020 are WA +2 Heatseekers, HE, Standard range (basic cost x2). 30mm micros were originally described as Rostovic Wirst Rakate, and the only ammo available in this caliber was Dumb Rocket (200e$ per a 6-pack). 40mm’s are D-Roc’s invention. Humanity Loss for micromissile launchers is 2d6 for a battery that takes up to 1 space. Bigger batteries are treated as multiple batteries, and smaller have the same HL as full-space ones.

Grenade Launcher Why one would want a GL as a cyberarm weapon, is beyond me. Obviously, the first of these nd were deployed during the 2 SouthAm conflict, as test samples. Somehow, it did catch up among the people who claim that “Bigger is always better”, mostly gang members. This explains why modern cyberarm GLs are often of such a poor quality – they’re made for gang members by illegal gunsmiths. There are two classic GL calibers, 40x46mm NATO (the Western standard) and 30mm Plamya (the Cold War – era Soviet standard, still popular beyond the Iron Curtain) often chosen for it’s compact size, since the damage potential is comparable with 40x46mm. Keep in mind that, however, 30mm Plamya are difficult to obtain, even on black market, outside of Russia and a handful other countries that do use them. Then there’s the 25mm Tsunami, high-pressure GL, and Militech 25mm low-pressure GL (the ammo used for U-55 Cowboy launcher). There’s also the new Militech standard, so called “25mm microgrenade”. However, since “25mm’s” are interchangeable with 10 GA shotgun shells (that is, any weapon capable of using “microgrenades” can use 10 GA shotgun shells, there are also known examples of 10 GA shotguns adapted to fire “microgrenades”), which are of circa 20mm caliber, the “25mm” denominator should be seen more as a part of Militech’s marketing strategy. Militech Microgrenade launchers are therefore treated as shotguns with GA of 10. The caseless, muzzle-loaded 40mm Russian grenades (originally made for GP-25 and GP-30 grenade launchers) are virtually unknown outside of Russia. However, they are one of the best choices, if you really must have a cyberlimb GL. Note: due to their short barrel, the range of a built-in GL is always 1/3 of the listed for a full-sized variant, and accuracy is -3. If the GL’s size is doubled (+50% cost), the longer barrel provides 50% of the regular range and accuracy of -2. No GL may take more than 50% spaces in a cyberlimb. All these are break-open designs, and there’s no space for separate ammo. Loading is manual, taking double the time in case of the 40mm “caseless” muzzleloader, since it has to be literally screwed into the rifling at the base of it’s barrel. Recoil factor: the grenade launchers do pack a punch, and they do pack a kick back as well. Therefore, to keep things somewhat close to realism, a recoil factor has been taken into account. It may look surprisingly high, but remember that regular grenade launchers are universally shoulder arms or even stationary, whereas a cyberarm mount calls for a single-handed equivalent. Some grenade types, meant for automatic GLs, have a stronger propellant charge (meant to provide the weapon with the extra energy required). They are often referred to as “high pressure” grenades (marked with an “#” in the table below). Note: there are high pressure rounds in 40x46mm caliber (meant for NATO – standard automatic GLs), however these are not used in hand-held GL, and shouldn’t be pressed into use with a cyberlimb GL (even if technically possible).

Note: there are other GL calibers, like the obsolete Polish 40x47mm “Pallad” system, Russian 43mm “GM-94”, Chinese 35x32mm SR “QLB / QLZ” (hi-pressure) and South African 20x42mm “PAW” system. However, they never reached the popularity of the above-mentioned calibers, and thus any cyberlimb GL in any of these calibers must be a one-off construction.

Weapon mount & link nd

Another piece of hardware introduced during 2 SouthAm Conflict, this one allows the user to interface a purpose-built cyberlimb “popup” gun (anything from a one-shot Finger Special, to a 40mm GL) – price is the same as for a cyberlimb weapon. It counts as a built-in for game purpose. What is different is that it can be disconnected and re-connected in a moment. The mount itself is usually non-regulated by law (the weapon modules are another story), and when not in use, it can be covered by a special shield of cyberlimb cover material (diff. 20 to identify what’s on). Of course, when a gun is attached, everything is obvious. Due to the same reason, HL is so low.

Firearms Like with the cyberarm blades, no gun can take more than 50% spaces in a cyberlimb (i.e. no gun bigger than 2 spaces can be installed in an average, 4-space, BOD 6 Cyberarm), including the barrel, action, magazine and whatever else. The calculations are made for handgun rounds. Rifle cartridges are considered to be 2x as big as a handgun round of the same caliber. Shotgun cartridges - except for .410 GA - are considered to be rifle cartridges (and big ones!), they also produce more recoil, thus enforcing a more durable construction. .410 GA are 50% bigger, and enforce Volume space? Length space? What the heck? 150% cost increase. Thus, if considering a rifle (or I know – I stated in the beginning that 1 space = 1 shotgun) - caliber cyberarm gun, double the space space. 375 cubic centimeters, mold them as you and triple the cost requirements. wish. The problem is, the guns can’t be molded Heavy weapon calibers, like .50 BMG, aren’t even much. The barrel has to be straight metal pipe, taken into account. otherwise it would be better to not have it, period. But Keep in mind that the length of the round doesn’t if we put a 10mm pipe thorough our standard 5x5x15 matter when barrel size is discussed, only for action cm cylinder “space”, there’s a lot of empty space left. size. Therefore the concept of length space – it eats a lot of length, but not much volume. Some of it is left for Types of action other applications (a magazine, for example). These do include minimal barrel length possible for - Mike van Atta holdout weapons. The cost is calculated in comparison to the ammo price in that caliber. Barrel size: You can’t cram a barrel into your arm that has caliber bigger than your BODx2 in millimeters. It’s not only the volume, you have to take into account other factors as well (recoil absorption, heat dispersion, material stress) in the problem of adapting the volume to such a long, straight pipe. Barrel takes 0,5 volume space per every space of length in both handgun and rifle calibers (including the .410 GA). Shotgun calibers call for a 1 volume space per every space of length. Suppressed barrel (that is, one equipped with a muffling shroud) takes twice as much volume spaces per every space of length as normal. Barrel costs 20% of the action’s price per every 0,5 length space, 60% if suppressed. Action size: Break-open / derringer. Takes 0,25 space (mulitiple barrels are possible, but should be treated as separate guns). Basically, a firing chamber and pin. Reliability is VR. The cost is equal to 5 ammo boxes. Revolver. 0,5 space base. In fact, it consists only of the ammo cylinder and firing pin. Cycled (i.e. drum rotated) by electric motor, or myomer muscle flex. Although it would be possible to make a bigger diameter drum, it is considered to be highly impractical. Reliability is VR. Cost is 15 ammo boxes. Revolver action has the merit (and flaw) of not requiring additional ammo space.

Aiming with cyberlmb guns First of all – you can’t aim with them. Remember that cyberarm weapons lack iron (or any other, in fact) sights. This can be easily countered by installing a laser sight or a smartgun rig (normal cost). If you don’t have a neural processor for smartgunning, you can use the LimbLink option – it’s basically a stripped down smartgun module to be used with cyberlimb guns (+2 accuracy – a correction to the original Chromebook specs). - Mike van Atta On the lasersight, it could be equipped with an insert that allows you to switch target patterns for different weapons(Red dot, dot with a halo, crosshairs, brackets, ring sight(for shotguns), etc.), more expensive ones could have color patterns(red, green, blue, inside out or outside in) and perhaps different colors(purple, yellow, coral, could also have multiple colors that shift), just to get the "style" aspect. Also, for stealth sniping, you could have non-visible-light lasers(infrared, ultraviolet), although you would have to be careful, if your target has IR or UV in their goggles/optics, because they'd give your position away, like a common lasersight in fog or smoke. - Snowtiger

Autoloader, 0,5 space. Take note that this is the only type capable of fully-automatic fire, if designed to do so. It fires from a closed bolt (like most modern SMGs), and is cycled not by it's own blowback / recoil, but built-in electric motor. Reliability is ST, UR if autofire capable. The cost is 20 ammo boxes for an autoloader, 60 for an autofire – capable weapon (ROF 20).

Barrel length: When you buy Action only, you get action only – i.e. no barrel. Unless you want your own variant of High Five Palm Bomb (action only, no barrel) you need some barrel. The longer the barrel, the better range and accuracy you will get. For extra accuracy and range, a longer barrel can be installed (since it's the barrel only, it takes less space, but for the purpose of determining how big the gun is, double these values). Barrel cost: +20% gun cost per 0,5 space length of the barrel 60%, if suppressed). Barrel lengths (in length spaces): 0,25 is holdout barrel (somewhat shorter than 2”). 0,5 is short handgun barrel (about 3”) 0,75 is long handgun barrel (about 4½”) 1 is Dirty Harry’s 6”. 1,5 goes for a SMG-sized barrel. This is the longest one you could cram in if you don’t have abnormally long limbs. 2 is a sub-carbine barrel, +0,5 space to get a proper-length handgun barrel (+15 cm). Suitable for machine pistols and short shotguns as well. Keep in mind it would count as full 1 space for calculating weapon's overall size. +1 space to get a barrel of a mid-sized SMG (+30 cm). Shotgun bores by gauge A carbine barrel would need +1,5 space. Approximate values: Assault rifle-sized barrel calls for +2 spaces. 10 GA = 19,5mm 12 GA = 18,5mm 16 GA = 17mm 20 GA = 15,5mm .410 GA = 10mm

Any cyberarm gun (except for shotguns) can be equipped with a silencer. It doubles space requirements for the barrel (i.e. a 1-space worth of barrel is going to take 1 full space, not 0,5 as without it) and triples the cost. Keep in mind that most barrels are too short to effectively suppress a rifle round!

- Mike van Atta Feeding the ammo: Autoloaders do use box magazines: • External - no space or cash cost, the gun is equipped with a conventional magazine well. A magazine well can be made to accept any commercially available magazine type (e.g. have a 10mm autoloader, fed from Minami 10's mags) You stick a box magazine into it (or even a belt canister, if you're really crazy). Advantage: doesn't take spaces, easy to reload, can be made to accept any one commercially available magazine type. Disadvantage: can't be hidden (how you hide a 30 -round box sticking out of your arm?). Unwieldy when in use. Belt-fed guns fall into this category. • Internal magazine: number of bullets = 150/ caliber in millimeters per space taken, round the result down. If the magazine is integral, this is the exact result. If it is detachable, reduce the capacity by 10%. Integral magazines have to be refilled, whereas detachable ones can be swapped for full ones (which is much quicker). Only handgun rounds can be used this way (rifle rounds are too long!). The Magazine quick calculation: magazine is placed parallel to the barrel, Derringer: no magazine at all. like in P90 SMG, and the bullet is Autoloader, external feed: no magazine. rotated 90 degrees just before it enters Autoloader, internal feed, integral: 150 / caliber (mm) = the lock.
