Hey guys. First post here so I figured I'd jump in on the FAQ discussion. I have a few... okay a lot of questions. But I'll try and break them up into a few posts. Sorry if I ask questions that have already been answered. I read through and I think I got all the duplicates.
“In Japanese business dealings, it is expected that the best deal possible is offered upfront. Directly negotiating with your Tanaka-san is an affront to their Honor. When working with your Tanaka-san, a gentle reminder of the difficulties and the professionalism with which the task will be done may place them in a frame of mind to consider a generous bonus.” This sounds like it's still a negotiation test during the mission. Did I miss something, or will there be specific rules for how payment is being made in the future seasons?
When concealing illegal items, what is the difficulty threshold of the palming test? Are the difficulties different for different security levels of Neo-Tokyo? If so, what are the different areas and their security levels? Or is there a book that maps out Neo-Tokyo and its neighborhoods and security levels?
What are the actions that are considered “potential criminal activity”? I can safely assume any non-HTR violence, non-violent magic in the street, getting caught decking in public, failing a palming test to hide an illegal item, or openly flaunting restricted/illegal gear are safe bets. Are there any others?
What are the response times for the two man NTMP patrols? Or are we just supposed to have them show up whenever runners do anything pink mohawk?
What are the stat blocks for the NTMP patrols?
What are the stat blocks and tactics for the HTR Drones for NTMP?
What are the stat blocks and tactics for the HTR Teams for NTMP?
What are the stat blocks for the local Yakuza members?
Or can I just hold my horses and all of the above stat blocks will be in the primer of each mission?
Under the Prime Runner section, what is a SMH?
That's all for this one. Thanks for any information.
