I mean, I have an NDA. Somewhere. Actually, I think I have a couple. No one else is reading this, right? You guys are -finally- going to sell an actual Netrunner deck. But, seriously, get Upstairs to reprint some of the original stuff. TT hoodies and shirts, Maelstrom shirts, etc. Mine are fading!

This is the Internet. No complaining here either. No whinging, whining or entitlement. At all. Save that for radio.

Did you ever think...knees just look weird? Kneecaps and knees. Awkward, clumsy, poorly fitted. Yech.

As for the tech, well, the Adeptus Mechanicus does observe/make obeisance to the spirits found in machines, yes. Sure they are crazy, but they also believe in the Omnissiah, officially an "aspect" of the Emperor, who guides them in tech. Ironically, a Void Dragon/Shard of C'tan inside Mars.

Much of the esthete of the Empire is death and semi-death based - the dying/undying figure on his throne, fed by the souls of murdered psykers to guide humanity home. In this sense, the Marines are part of that esthete. They, too, die regularly for the Emperor and humanity.

Well, the easy way to understand it is, if worship of the Emperor is a religion, the Astartes are a cult of veneration. They protest that the Emp. is/was just a man (Templars being a loud exception, they actually worship), but in action they venerate their founder/grandparent to a messianic level.

The rich are different than us: they're rich. Don't remember who said it. Rich don't mean smart or wise. I observe that it has a good chance of degrading those attributes on a fundamental, maybe irreparable level. So of course, nearly all of us want to be rich and powerful. Derp!

I can think of a couple right now I'd sure like - nanosurgeons, toxin binders, enhanced antibodies. Biomonitor. Muscle and bone lace. Replaced and enhanced lungs. Maybe a detuned Sportheart 2000. Light skinweave would have saved me some scars...pain editor, of course, properly adjusted.

Depends on how you feel about "transhumanism" and what role electrical, mechanical and biological enhancement will play in that. We both have a list of an easy dozen pieces of 'ware that would be nice - if it wasn't for the commensurate cost. And if we had the nerve, need or conditioning required.

Yes, but you'll never know it. Except for maybe a faint narrowing of the eyes.

Haven't run it. I did run a DG/Cyberpunk game years ago. Well, DG with 2020s cyberware, more. Style and Substance and Punk were less relevant than, say, not being converted by black zombie goop. Fun though! FNFF works well in DG.
