THE BULLETIN BOARD From: Silver Cianide Address: <[j--r--y] at [teetot.acusd.edu]> Date: Wed, 11 Mar 52 09:27:11 To: Neo.Anarch.Guide.Everything.Else Subject: The Bulletin Board Well, the bulletin board for the Neo-Anarchists Guide to Everything Else is now officially up. Send your comments, ideas, information, warnings, and just plain drek to the Bulletin Board via me, Silver Cianide, at [j--r--y] at [teetot.acusd.edu.] From: Maximum Overload Address: <[g--l] at [wam.umd.edu]> Date: Wed, 11 Mar 52 23:07:54 -0500 To: Neo.Anarch.Guide.Everything.Else Subject: Orichalum Cyberarms How 'bout this one... to ponder, there are no real rules in this one, merely an idea. The Orichalum Cyberarm... Ideal for punching, plus a good focus as well... Mind you, the mage using this does lose a point of essence, but the fact that there is a focus involved does compensate. Cost is the usual... Cyberarm cost+(rating x 300,000); A bit steep, but when you consider the possibilities (orichalum spurs, razors, etc.) it works out. I doubt Orichalum Decks would be useful (magic and VR doesn't mix at all!) and vehicles are right out. A little background...I ran into a CorpMage with one of these. Dear ol' Max Overload (El Rigger Mejor, c'est moi) hit him with a panzer. Just cuz you're magic don't mean you're invulnerable to tech.

Even for a Sprawl Gang they are vicious and cruel. They are all of mixed race, creed, and subspecies, but they all share a common bond. Anger and hate. Their leadership are mostly Vampiric, and most underlings are not, but (when they prove themselves) are infected as they rise in rank. The Yaks are using them more and more often as hit teams or enforcers (since they are rather effective), and the Seolpa Rings are beginning to realize their potential as well. Both are actively employing the BloodRunners for various jobs, although each are unaware of the others presence. The BloodRunners don't dress like a gang, they all wear normal clothing (so as not to make them easily distinguishable), however, they do all wear black silk shirts so they can recognize each other. The BloodRunners are extremely dangerous... Not to be taken lightly. If ever confronted, pray. Some of us carry silver crosses for that purpose. Another characteristic worth mentioning- whether or not the gang member is infected with the Vampiric Virus, all members drink the blood of the slain after a skirmish or battle. They even scare the I-Marines. I ran into one once - With an Armored ATV. Had to back over it twice and then tossed it into the Pacific. Needless to say, I now live in FDC.

Does anyone else have any confirmation of this? From: TAG Address: [d m m] at [linde.harvard.edu] Date: Sun, 15 Mar 52 07:07:56 EST To: Neo.Anarch.Guide.Everything.Else Subject: The Barrier My party is attempting to circumvent the primary problems e.g. insanity/death associated with the barrier by entering a state of "cryogenic statis" in a life support unit on the way up. Why cryo? We hope that our lowered body functions and reduced auras due to being enclosed in high tech machinery will help us survive. We have already decided we can deal with the rest of the problems. Dave will be there with them and could use your input.

It describes the state of astral space beyond the barrier and in the void. (It also includes your group's findings on the barrier. Thanks much! Not everyone would have been willing to share such hard-won data.) I think I speak for many when I say we await your findings avidly. I hope you come back to tell us what's out there.
