I actually never used pickreqs in Shadowrun, Cortex, or Call of Cthulhu. I always used exprreqs or prereqs, becuase I was always generating identity tags and testing for them. That way, you can have things that get disabled, and if they're disabled, you don't forward the "we're here" identity tag to the hero, and any exprreqs looking for that item fail. With a pickreq, you can only test for its presence. You can't test for its current status.

I think I'm finally understanding why you do this. Can you give me an example of how you use them?
Thanks!
