bpmasher Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I think this was done in the latest Shadowrun edition, where everything is in the Matrix. I'm coming up with my own setting mixing alien pawns/characters from Cyberpunk/Battletech and Starfinder. So we have aliens, (human-sized) mecha and cyberpunks loaded on the mapboard on my table right now. All I am missing is names, backgrounds and some cool gadgets for these folks until I can kick off the scenario. So I have a group of tough guys with numerous mecha to aid them about to blast into a bar (from CPRed beginner box) and try to capture a hacker (one of the group inside). Inside there is a mech, a rifleman and the hacker. What I thought would give the scenario a twist is the ability of the hacker to take control of a robot A.I. mind and start giving it commands. Is this a telepathy/mind control thing (limited only to mechanical beings) or something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-Bear Posted September 22, 2022 Report Share Posted September 22, 2022 Mind control versus machine class of minds. Plus technically though the mecha should have the complication affected by mental powers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kealios Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Kazei 5 has some good writeups about hacking written from a Hero System cyberpunk point of view. Yes, I believe all the hacking powers are mental-based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
