well, there's not normally much point in looking.
anything of value, and the shoes are typically missing.

but if you need a trench-coat... it's a good place to start looking.

No.  I saw it more like the unstable molecule uniforms from the Marvel universe, although without the adapt-to-a-person's-power ability.

Actually, they have that liquid-that-turns-solid-on-impact stuff for milatary grade armor now. it's kinda bulky, and very heavy, but works really well.

I'm assuming it's a refined version of that for the form fitting.

Yeah, gel packs.  I remember seeing it when I was going through a friend's copy of the Cannon Companion.  You can add them to form fitting, but it makes the armor more noticeable.

works good though.

still, even if it's just the uniforms from the fantastic four... you know how hot ans sweaty that would get from wearing it all the time?

talk about nasty.

*shrug* have you ever known a runner to have two sets of bodyarmor?

most of them are lucky if they have enough money left over for two sets of clothes.

heh, good point.  Although adepts can skimp somewhat in other areas since they don't generally need to keep up with advances in cyberware

adepts also don't normally have priority A resources.

money runs out fast once you buy a lifestyle and a car...

Yup. you get three uses a year, and hope you don't have to use any of them...

LOL

although, if your GM ships you off to the congo, docwagon dosn't help much.
