Due to the nature of augments, they were not intended as a way of turning a human into a super soldier. There are two types of augments, Medical and Cosmetic.

Medical Augments are full replacements for lost, damaged or worn parts. They are replaced and designed to match the user’s current performance levels. If they were to be made stronger then they rip themselves from the surrounding tissue or the limiters prevent them from over performing.

Cybernetic Modifications can be purchased for the character. Augments have three costs, the cost for parts in credits, the cost for Surgery in credits, and the Psyche Cost, which is subtracted from the character’s Psyche Derived Characteristic. The Surgery Cost depends on the level of the surgery required to implant the part.
