So I saw someone post about there being no rewards table to help guide GMs as to how much characters should get for completing a mission. I decided to make one up so feel free to use it if you wish. There are two tables, one for a standard campaign (~400BP) and one for low BP or as I like to call it "Rock Bottom" campaigns.

To calculate the appropriate amount to give from modifiers, take the sum of all the money gained from modifiers and multiply by the difficulty/2 (round up).
Modifier Bonus=(Total income from modifiers) x (Difficulty/2)
EX: Standard Modifiers- Good Roleplaying, Side quests (3,000), Deadline
Difficulty 4, 20,000

500+3,000+3,000=6,500
6,500 x 2= 13,000
Total- 33,000Y

NOTE: Karma is not included as there is already a table for that under the KARMA section of SR4A.

why on earth does the LOW BP campaign get double the money? That is NOT rock bottom. :/

Also, there's no real metric for determining difficulty number, so you either might as well assign the difficulties descriptors rather than numbers or figure out how you would determine difficulty.

Also, nuyen and karma rewards should be balanced, so maybe add those as well?

Thread Revival!

Might be relate to average professional rating? or is it something else?
The table in SR4A p.269 doesn't touch the difficulty aspect of karma rewards...
