Yes, but my point is, when loaning AP to your ally, the enemy's
abilities, armour, edge, atc. are ignored, despite the fact that you
are supposed to be shooting at them. Therefore, ALL the AP loaned to
an ally are usable by the ally, whereas AP bid for a direct attack
are adjusted for defensive edge. Not that I dislike the whole idea by
any means, but this seems peculiar.
