The sales exec who approached us was claiming they'd got together some of the old cyber docs and improved the tech so we don't get the burn like the Rust Alley vets. He's probably bullshitting us, and I wouldn't have even entertained him if they hadn't already met with the local Gangers. The Johannas pushed them during a tech demo and a few of them didn't come back. They reckon the guy they had running the implants was one tough cookie. Needless to say, they've screwed the pooch with their chances of getting their hands on any implants now. A couple of our troopers volunteered to give the stuff a shot if it looked good, pretty big gamble if you ask me but they're rookies looking to get ahead in the game. If the stuff came off we could maybe match up with the Karma stuff.

Keane wrote:Well, not quite. But the Jo reports sound like it's up there with Nuke Tendons and then some, and the old Chrome tech had some serious potential. So we arranged for a meeting tonight. Course, then you guys showed up. Not very subtle, but maybe that was the idea. That fake scout mission around the facility in the sewers was cute. I'm not tangling with the company again though, and if these Chrome boys are bringing the big Eye of Slayer into my sector then I don't want them here any more. So I suppose I have to trust that you guys will stick to your word, and give you a bit of an incentive. Carrot and stick, but lets stick to the carrot for now. I don't trust these upstarts anyway, so I've not a lot to lose by helping you guys do your job and get back to Uptown. We were going in heavy, heavier than those gangers by a long stretch, just in case they gave us any trouble. So now we'll see what they're made of. And if you want to cart off the cyber hardware for whatever black marketeering you fancy then good luck to you.
