Nice LP so far! I played a bunch of hours of the new-ish PC game and now I'm trying to find a PnP group too. This should be fun to watch.

This thread is making me want to dig up the old Shadowrun novels, and give them another read. They were terrible, but pulpy fun.

Can you recommend somewhere for a neophyte to start? I've read a ton of cyberpunk but never anything specifically Shadowrun-based.

This update was hilarious. Kitsune getting more and more sick of Armitage's poo poo :lol:

The Secrets of Power trilogy starting with Never Deal With A Dragon. I don't think the books hold up that well on their own merits, but as an introduction to what you can expect from Shadowrun, I think they work well.

Cool I'll see if I can pick these up this weekend, I need a new time-waster book.

And because I never miss an opportunity to pimp a certain series; if you dig on speculative Sci-Fi, the Revelation Space trilogy and its associated novels are also good fun.

Hadn't heard of this one, I'll check it out as well. Also, I don't know how anyone could claim to have read cyberpunk without including Gibson and Stephenson :)

Is there anything stopping a runner from becoming a Goro with four shooty arms, or one of those MGS triple-arm-bots?

My first exposure to arcologies was in SimCity 2000 and I would always beeline for them because the :krad: concept. Nothing has changed in the subsequent years.



And then they blast off into space!

Great LP, I really enjoyed all the side conversations and personality you crafted for the runners. Also now I get why Armitage showing up in Returns is significant!
