Persona-Fixers and Runners of the NBZ

[grävling]

1. Are hackers runners? Don't they have the 'cybernetic quantum computer interface with the organic cryptochip'?

2, Typos and grammar
s/their fortunes/their fortune/
s/hold out hope of being able to return to normal life/but still intend to return to the normal life/
s/when they have profitted/after they have profitted/
s/at a Cyber Knights side/at a Cyber Knight's side/
s/complete and total end/irrevocable end/
s/to the end of their life/for the rest of their lives/
s/soley/solely/
s/keeps to their own/keep to their own/
s/to police/to police itself/
s/and insure/and ensure/
s/Runners available in the south-east corner of the NBZ are all coming out of the Fennians ranks/all Runners available in the south-east corner of the NBZ come out of the Fennian ranks/
s/the more experience/the more experienced/
s/many connection/many connections/
s/to better trained and higher quality/to a better-trained and higher-quality/
s/ dangerous and ready/ (the sentence doesn't make sense. ready to do what? )
s/been around before/long experience/
s/hires out exclusively/exclusively hires out/
s/dception/deception/
s/having connection/having a connection/
s/known for locating/believed to be locating/ (to avoid saying 'known for' twice in one sentence)
s/should insure that/should ensure that/ (2 times, but better to reword the sentence so that it isn't used twice).

but in any case 'ensure' is to make sure. 'insure' is what insurance companies do.

I think instead of being subtitled 'Known Runners Operating with the NBZ' it should be subtitled 'Known Persona-Fixers and their Associated Runners within the NBZ'.

There is an error in the section of the Yakuza -- Ging Fe Kury provides gunslingers, not melée-trained fighers. And I wouldn't have understood from the description that Nino Doors provides Faces.

The list is also incomplete, Trey Instantaneous in Fennian is left out, for instance, but I suppose that is ok. The whole Streets faction is left out -- is that too on purpose?

THANK YOU.

So much for all your energy and assistance with building the game!

I assumed it is a reference to below:

grävling - i will work on your fixes. In response to the question about hackers / knights / runners. Only Knights have the cybernetic quantum computer interface which allows for true hacking. Runners are individuals trained with the use of computers, software, and devices, but lack the essential cybernetic hardware to be a true Knight Hacker.

Therefore, a Knight provides a "tunnel" for his hacker runners. The runner plugs into the Knight, and the Knight plugs into the data terminal. In this way, the Knight is capable of staying conscious and on-guard (because the runner is doing the dangerous hacking work, ie. brain-dead to the world).

A vigilant woman in a battered trenchcoat pats her HunterSight and stands over the slumped form of her hacker, just within the shadowed entrance of an alley.

As the Matrix system plays out (mental / physical damage from the Matrix, high-heat Matrix runs resulting in combats) these realities will start to be more apparent in game.

Thank you for explaining.

grävling - all typos resolved for the next release, as well as your content suggestions. Yes, the Street is actually left out on purpose! In the eyes of Mars, they don't count.
