The following material has been inspired by the game scenarios played out in the Greater Lafayette Indiana region by a number of Shadowrun players. All material should be considered as entertainment value and game session inspiration. I do hope you enjoy it...

addendums to the various source material that you may have access to. Do
enjoy it, as the usefulness of all of it is quite worth the reading.]<<<<<

Wartech Burn EMPer (tm)
Parts Cost : 95,000 Nuyen (3 CF)
Installation Target # : 5
Installation Time : 72 Hours
Facilitation Required : Vehicle Work Shop
Appropriate Skill : Appropriate Vehicle B/R, or Electronics B/R
Damage Appropriation : 6S3
*Range Categories : 0-10, 11-30, 31-75, 76-150
The Blaze and Burner devices have proven to have high degrees in both
functionability and usage. Capable of hitting any and all vehicular
electronics (including Vehicle Control Rigs and Rigging Devices) within
their fields of effect and doing a comparable level of damage. Although
the first device has been viewed as having a somewhat limited range,
its versatility in Motorcycle Installation has proven worthwhile.
*[GM's Note- The damage done to a system by these devices is reduced in power as the range to target increases. A modifier of one (-1) to the Power rating is accrued for every range category after the first.]
[GM's Note, Additional- These devices will do a level of stun damage to an individual who is cybernetically interfaced with the vehicle in question. The level of damage is equal to the base damage, minus one (1) category STUN. Willpower is used to resist, with any EMP Protection/Armor (see below) applied accordingly.]

measure.]<<<<<
-Dapper Dan<10:36:05/5-28-60>
->>>>>[Hey Dapper, chill out. They are pretty useful. What they don't
tell ya is the Field of Effect is limited to a 5 Degree Radius Service Arc,
basically forcing you to get a pretty directed "shot" at your target.]<<<<<

Type Modifications Cost (per 10)
Improved Explosive +3/+1 Staging 90/875
Vehicular APDS +1/0 Power, -2/-1 Armor 110/1050
[GM's Note- the Improved Explosive Shells ARE available for Assault
Rifle's, SMG's, and LMG's as well as heavier weapons.]
Parts Cost : Modified Vehicular Body Cost X 10% (per +1)
Installation Target # : 5
Installation Time : 7 Days (168 Hours)
Facilitation Required : Vehicle Repair Facility
Appropriate Skill : Appropriate Vehicle B/R, or Electronics B/R
This system is a resistance to the level of resistance that a vehicle
has against EMP systems (such as those mentioned above). The rating
of the resistance system cannot exceed the Vehicle's Total Body
Attribute (not including Armor). This acts as a number of dice that
the vehicle has in resisting EMP "weaponry." Any individual that is
cybernetically linked to the vehicle (a rigger) also gets this number
of dice when resisting the effects of EMP.
[GM's Note- Standard Vehicular Armor is of NO USE in resisting the effects of an EMP setup.]
Parts Cost : Modified Vehicular Body Cost X 25% (per +1)
Installation Target # : 5
Installation Time : 7 Days (168 Hours)
Facilitation Required : Vehicle Repair Facility
Appropriate Skill : Appropriate Vehicle B/R, or Electronics B/R
This system is counted as FULL armor against the effects of EMP
systems (such as those mentioned above). This level of protection
has a few restrictions however.
Parts Cost : 1,500 Nuyen (.25 CF)
Installation Target # : 4
Installation Time : 6 Hours
Facilitation Required : Vehicle Work Shop
Appropriate Skill : Appropriate Vehicle B/R, or Electronics B/R
These little objects have been born out of the truly desperate
chase scenes. Similar to a standard Flash Pak, the system is set with
an encoder system that causes a series of ultra-brilliant flashes to go
off in sequence to one another. This, combined with the pure lumino-
city of the setup, creates a +5 to action target numbers. Visual
Flare Compensators are at half their rating when dealing with this
system as well.

you drive. And then hold on for the fun. Gives the 'ol Star something
to REALLY think about...]<<<<<

[GM's Note- If more than one system is used at the same time, in synchronous
"firing," the target numbers go up by two (+2) for every additional pack
to a limit of 4 (+6). The cost for the integration of multiple WFP's also
accrues an additional 5% to the parts cost and an additional 3 hours
per set of WFP's after the first.]
