Greysword:
Why didn't they release the write-up for the scorpion thing? It's the stat block for the scorpion drone and the write-up for a motorcycle drone.

...and it's a fuzzy scan of the page. Was this done on a home scanner?

Finstersang:
Thatīs just the page layout. Judging from the german version, can confirm that both have correct stats listed.

And TBH, most of the stuff looks quite fun and reasonably balanced as well. Besides an actually usable jetpack (that isnīt fiercely gated behind the ol' "super experimental stuff with Availability over 9000" wall), there are other really fun new toys. I especially liked the flying Monowhip decapitator drone and the design and "lore" for the weaponized vending machine is silly in just the right way. The new Modification rules are going in the right direction as well: No artificial seperation between drone and vehicle modification, usable armor mods, ample room for modification (in 5th Edition, you couldnīt do shit to most smaller drones) and thereīs an actuall cost benefit when you install things yourself.

No, canīt complain much at all, if it werenīt for the fact that the book also adds a new 3 Karma quality that absolutely fraggs up everything. And not just for Riggers, but for everyone. But hell, at least now we all get to know why SSDR wasnīt able to get a sane version of Analytical Mind through errata  ::)

Just downloading my copy of Double Clutch (English version) from DriveThru now :D

Yeeaaahhhhh ... there are several of us unhappy about that particular quality, but we got overruled.

Aria:
Looks like a house rule to change the cost to 12 would put them back in line with the other edge providing qualities… or is that too simplistic?! Or we just accept everyone getting min 1 edge a round :P
