These are the system-provided paper or plastic slips that represent in-game resources. Most of these cards do not need to be attached to a physrep – consider them the physical representation of items which are commonly traded and used within the game. The exception to this rule is the Frag Grenade rip, which must be accompanied by a grenade physrep when it is used – you may reuse the same grenade physrep as many times as you have Frag Grenade rips. Some cards must be ripped upon use, such as dermograft patches, grenades, and marksman rounds. The ripping of these cards indicates that the resource has been used up. All rips that represent physical items such as money and resources can be stolen IC. Rips that represent non-physical resources and game mechanics cannot be stolen.
