Default [UT] Cyber legs, legless, and basic move.

I had a player pose a question for me: In the Basic Set, under Lame: Legless, it is mentioned that you must buy basic move to zero, but you do get the points for it.

Then, in the Ultra-tech write up of the Two Cybernetic Legs, it includes Legless with the -70% cyber mitigator, but does not mention changes to basic move.

Should a character with two cyber legs buy their move down to zero with the -70% mitigator?

In my interpretation, yes.

I would say “buy” move to zero and then buy it back to “normal” with cyber. Removing move with a cyber limitation on the removal implies that disabling cybernetics magically gives a limbless player movement.

You work out basic move as per normal.

Add the cost of the Cyber Legs and any other bonuses.

The mitigator reduction goes on lame or legless. A -10 point disadvantage would be -3 with the reduction.

Similar to bad eyesight, mitigator - glasses.
