[HOE] Unity adventure [shane]



just a couple marshall's only questions from a lurker on the weird west.   I 
just moved onto this list so I apologize if these have been asked before (and 
they probably have, they're kind of obvious)


apologies for tagging this shane, but if nobody else has noticed them, you 
may be the only one able to answer them

Marshall's only-----













Really---------









just a couple quick questions I've come up with after reading the unity

1)in Brainburners on page 98 it says one of the unforgotten 15 survived.   in 
the unity, there are 15 syker heads in the brain glom.   did one syker go 
back?  did the people miscount?   or is this just a storyline that got 
scrapped after the seeds had been laid?


2)in the unity, it says that the most damaging thing that can go back is 
information.   you suggest damaging the datapad or infesting it with gremlins 
on the way through the hunting grounds.

hypothetical situation:   a time traveler comes back through the portal to 
the wierd west from HOE with a simple book detailing what happened in the 
future.   the book is obviously futuristic because it can't be printed with 
current technology.   thus the book is credible, without being so furutistic 
that one can just throw some gremlins at it and be done.   let's call the 
bearer of this book.  oh... let's say...   Jackie Wells

yup, my posse has passed that book from member to member as people die, and 
have even made copies of it (though the copies obviously aren't very 
futuristic).   so far all they've used it to do is indocturinate new members 
into what they're fighting for, but I worry about what could happen if they 
sent it to the epitaph or something.   I'd like to just have the book go 
"whoomph" and disappear, something like "stuff from the future can't stay 
here longer than a month", but stone already nixes that (plus some character 
might be coming back sometime) so I'm against doing that, which leaves me 
with "toss a flamethrower at the4 person carrying the original.   the only 
thing is, I really don't like targeting characters specifically, especailly 
for supposedly random attacks.

any suggestions?
