For variety imo there should be twelve options for all 3 categories.. OR even 4 categories!
Like, the PC's opinion or disposition toward the NPC.

Thanks for your reply, I mean that normally actions resolve in the order of highest roll goes first, and second action may not happen. So if player A rolls a 15 blaster and player B rolls a 5 dodge, d ...

One way that PC's might notice the presence of the matrix is to allow them chances to see the "glitch in the matrix". An NPC's response seems out of place. Or he repeats his question inste ...

Something in the weapons descriptions caught my eye and spurred a question:
