Re: [HoE] Junkers (PEG guys)

Most junkers are not Hucksters or Mad Scientists.  The methods that junkers use were created and
perfected by Huckster/Mad Scientists, then taught to "regular" folks.  
Junkers actually bear much less similarity to Mad Scientists than people tend to think.  Junkers
can't "mass-produce" anything; every one of their devices is going to be slightly different.  They
also need no scientific knowledge beyond Occult Engineering.  I've got junkers in my game who have
no idea how a real machine works.  They just pile a bunch of crap together and put Spirit Battery
power through it, and it works.
