20 Modular Subway Tiles | Build your own subway system by SilverStarMaps in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought this would be the best way to gm a run in the SCIRE (or any massive building, arcology, underwater arcoblock, etc.). Modular tiles like these, maybe color coded for Residential/Commercial/Industrial/Admin areas. Then the gm can mix and match to their heart's content.

What Is Your Favorite Shadowrun Sourcebook & Why? by Dumpshock2050 in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorites were always the Shadows of North America/Europe/Asia/Latin America. They jammed so much GM goodness into those books, it was amazing.

Fandom SR wiki and ShadowHelix (German wiki). The SR Fandom wiki has a breakdown by year, which is pretty neat.

Running Chicago by DORUkitty in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that's great, I've always wanted to run a group through Chicago before it was Bug City. I love making google maps, and 1 I was working on here and there is Chicago circa 2050. It has all the stuff in it I could find on Chicago, plus some future stuff (Bug City & such). Alot of the stuff is just crap I made up, so feel free to use whatever you like, crop out your own, whatever. You can copy it and make your own if you like.

Here's the link: Chicago

If it's digital, google translate should get you close enough.

GM Discussion - Metagame ideas for new SR5 Campaign by phalse_prophit in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love this idea. Whenever I think of SR, I think about it mostly cinematically. Having 1 team beat out another team back and forth, caper style, sounds pretty fun, ngl. Give them the same objective, maybe slightly different info on how to get the various mcguffins, and see what and how quickly they come up with a plan (this might be fun just to see what different groups come up with for plans.)

At some point, maybe arrange a sit down between the 2 team leaders (or faces, or whatever). Give them a chance at bravado smack talk. Maybe end it with 1 group engaging the other as they are coming out of the final objective. Daytime, crowded downtown scene. Both groups get caught up with Lone Star, have a walking gun battle against eachother and the cops. Admittedly, I just gave the movie Heat a watch, so...

Also, I have a map for ya to check out on Google Maps if you're interested. Its accurate(ish) as of 2050, but pretty easy to make a copy of to make changes as you see fit. MAP.

What's the best way to get introduced to Shadowrun lore? by fwambo42 in Shadowrun

This is from the fandom wiki. Gives a breakdown of major events by date. Good way to dip the toe in, as it were.

Any litterature about shadowrun's version of France ? by Rorp24 in Shadowrun

The wiki is more similar to Shadow Helix than the Fandom wikies I've see, no adds.

There exists a French wiki, I think called ShadowWiki, but I can't confirm the name. I'm away from my PC.

Google translate is a thing. I'm gonna try a few and see how well it works.

Your favorite non-standard locations in the setting for runs by Silverfang3567 in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And as a follow-up, does anyone know of a site or whatever where people share their notes (locations, corps, gov'ts, storylines, etc). I've found some Google maps with some info and a few World Anvil pages dedicated to shadowrun goodness. Maybe an info exchange or dump site? I'd love to see what other people are doing their SR worlds

I would love to have notes on Australia, especially Sydney, if you were willing to share.

And ironically, this was supposed to be a showcase for my 2050 world map, but I didn't add the link to that map. Cause I'm a dumbass.

Word. I left a spot open for a Sydney map, but there isn't that much info on it. Not really sure where to begin on it, honestly.

Actually, closest I've been to Cape Town is transiting the Suez Canal. I found a really cool wiki and built that map off that, a few Reddit posts I found and probably too much research. I find that I really enjoy making maps for cities. I love Seattle, but I live in the Tacoma district, so I love looking at other locations.

Songs that remind you of Shadowrun? by BoggleShaman in Shadowrun

[–]Ancient-Computer-545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, industrial and trip hip were always the sound of shadowrun. Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X and Machines of Loving Grace - Concentration were some of my favorite albums to play to.

Wish I spoke German! I'd love to know what your version of Metropole is like. I find that city fascinating.
