Since people do not seem to know: great tools for #Shadowrun-GMs
- Google Maps for satellite photos of target destinations (works best when you play where you not live)
- generated.photos for NPC-pics
- google “$building_type floor plan” for real maps
I thin k I have an idea why in #Shadowrun 6 all Fake SINs have the same availability. Max gear rating on chargen is 6. If they did the standard rtg*2-thing, players could only get rtg 3-fake SINs. Well…house rule it is. Fake SINs get an availability of rtg+2 in my games.
One thing that I really don’t like in #Shadowrun 6, and don’t ask me why it is important to me because I don’t know it, is that fake SINs have all the same availability unlike in previous editions. So characters can start out with level 6-fake SINs. I wonder why this changed.
The #Shadowrun 6-test run went well. The rules are fine and work quite well. Combat is deadlier, Edge is neat. But people should definitely use tokens for their edge and might even need to use tokens for their minor actions. I have to say that I like it :)
So generated.photos is pretty awesome when you need some pictures for NPCs for a modern game. #ttrpg
Ich mach einen Shadowrun 6-Regeltest Mittwoch Abend. Wenn jemand Interesse hat:

Ich überleg wegen Kosten und Müllvermeidung vom Systemrasierer auf Rasierhobel zu wechseln. Ich hab aber Sorge, dass ich mich dann dauernd schneide.
Wie schwer ist das denn und wie lange dauert es, bis man sich mit sowas sicher rasiert?
How the hell did I ever create pre-generated characters in Shadowrun? Just typing also all the additional info would be so much work.
I’d like to do a test-run (pun intended) of the rules and for that I’d need pre-gens for the players…
I wanted to try the plant-based whopper out of curiosity. And it is not vegan…
Well. Then I don’t have to cheat on my diet and can eat a better burger next time.
Dear OSM-navigation-app-developers, please add a) more than one route to my destination; give me choice b) a choice to reduce the number of turns c) a way to select: “no left turns” (that would be a unique feature which I’ve never seen in a navigation app)
Any recommendations for an OpenStreetMap-navigation app? I walk, use my bike and/or public transport (Berlin).
Do OSM-navigation apps even incorporate public transport in navigation?
Follow up to my last post regarding #Shadowrun: Deckers could still hack the commlink of a runner to get access to the data on it or the data the runner shares with their group through their commlink like audio and visuals (or change communications through them etc).
I think I just solved the “Wireless bonus”-problem of gear in #Shadowrun for me which bothers me since 4th edition. The gear just gets this bonus and is not connected to the matrix. Most of the bonuses were in 1e-3e anyway part of the gear. This nerfs hackers a bit, but well…
Puh…das gedruckte deutsche Shadowrun 6-Grundregelwerk im Pegasus Shop ist Stand 2019…aber man bekommt kostenlos die PDF dazu, wenn man direkt dort bestellt.
I forgot how annoying the shopping-part of the Shadowrun character creation is. Packs make it more bearable but still…
Shadowrun 6 - das erste Spiel bei dem ich den Onlineshop Anfrage welche Auflage man bekommt und welchem Erratastand das entspricht…
I think the #Shadowrun 6-team should have far more publicly communicated their ideas (maybe some blog posts) behind the rule changes.
And the supposed nerfing of magic is probably a good thing. In the last editions one of the major criticisms was that magical characters are so much more powerful than the rest - especially in the long run. With the Transhumanism-rule from the Companion it gets even more leveled.
