... Namikaze.  Dude.  He's inventing it.  Not everything is an automatic text reference, y'know?

Ahh, see I didn't get that from the context of his post.  Makes more sense now.

Still a policlub dedicated to purging the world of the Sinless calling themselves "The Guilty Ones" is a great inspiration for antagonists. These guys are "proud" wageslaves who approve of every action of their corporate masters and wants to beat the rest of metahumanity to SIN up. Someone who willingly fights for the Man, even if the Man treats them like shit.

I've never heard of this policlub - where did you find info on it?

*cough* Human Nation *cough*

Although IMO such activities would be too blatant for Human Nation as a whole . . . but that doesn't mean Human Nation sympathisers wouldn't ever engage in SINless hunting. If HN can get people into position to launch a missile strike on a cave system in Madagascar, why not take shots at folks 'no one cares about' . . . .

So if a Corp Sinner Policlub pops up, what would their targets be most likely be? I am planning a campaign where there has been reports of murder of Sinless on corporate property and it turns out a new Policlub is on the rise and I decided the perfect idea would be a Wageslave policlub "approved" by the Corps to keep the Sinless down even harder. The initial idea of the group is that after a Wageslave was pushed too far when a corpsec decides to show some respect to a sinless panhandling and the Wageslave begins forming a policlub where disgruntled workers form up and take it out on the Sinless society. What would be the best targets for them to hit?

Some ideas I had

-Handing out pamphlets warning wageslaves not to go to red light districts in the barrens. Telling them that the elven women is hot but is likely to pry your secrets and leave you with sexually transmitted diseases
-Attacking self sufficient societies.
-Anti Charity law lobbying.

Same crap political clubs there are now.

The world is flat.
Save the mosquito.
Ban hydrocarbons.
Freeman society.

And that is a few of the more sane fringe ones around right now...

So when's the e-document supplement coming out?  Could call it "The Sarariman's Guide to the Sixth World" or perhaps simply "Better Arcology Living"

Rather reminds me of a group in zettai Karen children they were called the normals and where a bunch of ordinary people (housewives, doctors, dockworkers, etc) who were determined the eliminate the scourge of people with psychic powers. Quite willing to kill a 7 year old girl if she had powers to preserve "humanity.

Awesome thread, wish I had seen it earlier.

One point on the megas though. The difference between AAA status and AA is Corporate Court membership, that's it.

It was mentioned somewhere that there are AA corps larger than the smallest AAA (don't remember which book of the top of my head). They are all extraterritorial and produce their own currency (a requirement to become an AA), which as far as a wageslave is concerned, actual money. Most workers never see nuyen, at best they might use some of the local country's currency for "slumming" opportunities.

I know Sony is mentioned as being on par with the triple As but hasn't managed to get court membership yet although they're trying.

[Sendaz]

When Novatech got their seat, I had images of Sony going 'Nandeska! O Nadeska, Novatech Beat Sony again?!?'

[The Wyrm Ouroboros]

Well, Novatech could not, by design, lose their seat ...

... though I'm sure they were feeling that way when Wuxing and Horizon got in.

[Rift_0f_Bladz]

Isn't Wal-Mart considered AA in SR, they damn near are in RL too! Seems like I was miss informed on how powerful an AA corp truly is.

[PiXeL01]

Wal-Mart would be AA but I believe they are owned by Aztechnology.

[Sendaz]

Isn't it called Kong-WalMart now after the Crash of '29 forced to merge with Kong Hai Inc?

Have to go digging through the books...

[Ursus Maior]

They are. And last time I checked, they were a single A company almost making AA rating and the corporate court decision was imminent. Something was going on with Aztech as well. Either they were owned by them or the big A was the largest competitor in the UCAS. I'll recheck...
