I like the idea of "hardened hits" -- meaning that for both capture and assassinate, the target is a boss and fights back. This means the payout would be a lot bigger, but the risk a lot higher too. +1 for drops. My thoughts exactly ;D Targets could also be using experimental gear that we can salvage when we beat them.

Fennian special boss with Gatling gun. Yakuza boss - female in maid costume holding two katana... wait that's might far. Aztek boss - cyborg Jedi ( ?). Los Val boss who like Mariachi holding guitar case, which functions like machine gun or flame thrower. Brave Star boss look like Dirty Harry with specially modified Python. Streets boss - Extremely highed on various drugs, has a lot of AP than other Streets gangers. look like Junkie. Yakashima - Sniper... Attack from very far. Need to be caution when try to get close. Mars - Rambo with RPG. Accuracy is very low, but if it hits you, it hurts like hell. Blue OX boss - Gunslinger with dual UZI. if you are in optimal range for that boss, you will be in trouble.

oh the Gang Envy...remember that cheesy movie Assassins with Stallone? In WetWorks, the best newcomers have to prove their merit by "retiring" one of their predecessors. That is how you move up the ladder, by beating the best of the best.

and in CK the cyber knight is both outcast and ally to some.
the Knight cannot be trusted and is an easy target for jealousy, repping up, etc.

That's why I couldn't agree with the players crying about "gang envy", its built into the system. It is integral to any system where there is more than one ego. It causes necessary shifts in nature.

I'm all for gang envy. Not EXCESSIVE gang envy though because you can't work anymore without looking over your shoulder

Totally agree with you there, the issue is how it was presented to the player as just another time getting jumped by the locals. Cory has definatly improved that, just a little different flavor text is all it takes to make more sense. I would like to see someone pop and say something like "Your getting to popular around here and the ladies only have eyes for you chummer. Time to take you down a notch!"... ya get the picture.
