This is a list of stuff which is good background on this game. It
includes not just rules, but all sorts of other books from which
I am cribbing ideas for this campaign.
We are using third edition Shadowrun. I upgraded from first
edition, just for this game ... third edition is a significant
improvement. These are the rules/supplements in use.
Shadowrun: Third Edition Note: most of the reviews are for FOURTH edition, which we are not using
Some good cyberpunk combat ideas, but mostly I'm using the
whole "Musashi Flex" concept with only enough alterations
to make it fit the game world. I highly recommend the
original trilogy (the first three books listed below).
A great, great series from the '80s, with a good dystopic and violent
feel. It's my source for go-gangs, and is heavily informing my take on
Black Market Bloodsports. (And if you know American Flagg, you see the
connection already.)
