SR in RL the Horison-Doble Revolution

« on: <07-29-11/1250:10> »
I had a revolution for one of my char's but I figgured it was a theoretical design........

I guess its true. the longer a product is out the cheaper it gets! ;) Runners get a bargin at 8K, while us "oldsters" gotta pay 13K. Now All I gotta do is figure out how to put a sidecar on the RL one too.

Well... That and the electric motor blowing it to speeds of upwards to 60 MPH, smart tires, and the AR to be able to actually SEE where you are going. But, yes, it looks like someone grabbed the design of the Rev, and slapped it into the real world. I wish more things from Shadowrun would see that shift.

Not really.  Nothing like it at all.

I could quit anytime I wanted to.  I just don't want to.

What?

WHAT???

I don't have a problem.  YOU'RE THE ONE WITH A PROBLEM!

Nothing wrong here at all.  :P

CanRay, Sichr and Chrona are the only guys that have put more time on the boards than me. And I think Chrona just falls asleep on his keyboard most nights.

And I have yet to be asked why, too!

As for the Monowheel, I like the one design someone made using a Buick Engine...  Wish I could find the old link to that...  Two computers ago.  :(

The design stupefies me. How does it stay balanced while not moving? It'd need one motherfucker of a kickstand.

Never said I'd answer, just that I've never been asked.  On the boards or through PMs.

Back to Monowheels.

IIRC, they have smartwheel technology as well in Shadowrun, that makes for some interesting chases when the guy driving after you can go up stairs!

Well, you have now, so it's a claim you can no longer make, answer or no :P

No.  It wasn't done politely, and I am Canadian and thus can choose that route to go.

Too bad, you wasted the chance.  ;D

1) Please
2) Can't play the 'I'm Canadian' card without ending the sentence with 'Eh?"
