GEAR

MODIFIED WHITE NOISE GENERATORS.

THESE WERE MADE BY COWBOY DURING A MISSION TO MESS AROUND WITH SOME ROBOTS THAT WERE GUARDING A LOCATION THE GROUP HAD TO INFILTRATE.

THEY WORK ON A PRINCIPLE THAT IS SIMILAR TO EMP. WITH ENOUGH OF A BURST THEY ARE ABLE TO FORCE SYSYTEMS TO OVER LOAD, REBOOT AND SEIZE UP ALL TOGETHER.

EFFECT: TEMPORARILY KNOCKS OUT ALL ELECTRONIC ITEMS WITH A LOWER RATING, FOR 30 SECOUNDS MULTIPLIED BY RATING SUCCESSES.

HIGHER RATING SYSTEMS ARE NOT EFFECTED IF THEY ROLL MORE SUCCESSES THAN THE WHITE NOISE GENERATOR OTHER WISE THEY ARE AFFECTED AS PER NORMAL.

THEY HAVE A DIAMETER OF METERS EQUAL TO THEIR RATING +1.
AGAINST CYBERWARE THEY DO RATING SERIOUS DAMMAGE.
OFTEN LEAVING STREET SAMS BLIND AND IN A PARALYZED STATE.
TREAT ALL CYBER WARE AS RATING 5 +1 FOR ALPHA, +3 FOR BETA.

COST: RATING TIMES 2000 NUYEN
ONLY ONE SHOT WONDERS BUT CAN BE RECHARGED BY COWBOY FOR HALF THE STANDARD COST.
AS YET COWBOY HAS NEVER MADE ANY ABOVE RATING 5 BUT HE IS ONLY YOUNG AND THAT WILL SOON CHANGE IF HE GETS ENOUGH PRACTICE.
