- Can we assume that anthropomorphic drones have the equivalent of cyberlimbs with regular upgrade capacity, or do they have sort of primitive arms?
Aka, can we put upgrades in them.
I'm assuming so, but it's unclear.
- If I exchange the drones piloting program, does it suddenly make the arms more agile, given that their Agility is based on Pilot?
In case it does, what if I boost the arms agility and then upgrade the Pilot?
I would rule No. You would need to get your arms and legs upgraded, although I'm not sure what it should cost because, if you just replaced the arms, they would be the same new price. I'd probably go with just 2500 nuyen per increased Agility. The second question wouldn't really change.
- Is Smartsoft limited per drone or weapon?
I'd go with by Drone, because it's "integrated into the sensors of a vehicle or drone" rather than into the implanted gun. This does mean that you have to get an almighty load of Smartsofts or specialize in a certain drone model.
- Are the weapon mounts of Ares Duelists in Addition to their blades, or are those the blades? Do they have actual hands?
I'm pretty sure that Ares Duelists have a sword mount instead of hands. And the integrated weapon mounts are that blade. If you want them to have guns or hands, you need to remove the integrated mounts.
- Can Drones mount additional Armour like a human can? I assume they aren't allowed to wear actual armour, though I dare ask "Why not?", but what I'm really getting at here is things like Riot shields. For their own good, not others.
Huh. I'd actually allow a Riot Shield definitely. Now that I think about it, drone armor is more analogous to dermal plating, so I could see an Anthroform droid wearing a Sleeping Tiger suit and getting the armor. But that does not count for the "it bounces off" check, only for the Damage Resistance check.
- Can drones use hardware modules from Datatrails (wired in)?
Drones are devices, so I'd say yes.
