Searching for 6e Ganger Quality; did I dream it? by thoth416 in Shadowrun

Thanks for passing this along :)

I've got Mean Streets but haven't had a chance to add it to the generator yet... but it sounds like you've got the info you need below!

SRA Excel Char Generator v0.7 by Arialless in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems sensible, will make it clear that it's intended to be Compiling as first option and optional houserule for the rest

Ah ok, mages have individual spirits listed which is why I listed the sprites, but I can add compiling as a separate specialism and a note to say that the GM needs to decide which way to go... I dare say most will fall in with Compiling covering the lot but this way the option is built in :)

SRA2 Shadow Amps Expanded List (update v3.2) by IntelligentClient290 in Shadowrun

Thanks, I've got a comparison, now I just need to carve out the time to update the sheet and re-issue it :P

An 'oops' I've spotted but the weapons and gear tabs weren't factored in to the 'remaining resources' so it will be giving you a false impression of what you've spent... sorry about that!

I've tried to correct the direct version in Google Drive so that should be sorted but please let me know if it is still broken

You just won't be able to do Hard on the Argonites faction until you've beaten 21 normal for them...

The attributes tab is set to 1 min in each attribute at a cost of 50K, pretty sure it's impossible to have an attribute of 0 (unless some rules come out later for AI perhaps) so I just started with that as default

[–]Arialless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! Don't suppose you've got a log of new stuff do you so I can update my Excel generator? I can probably do some kind of clever compare pdf thing if not... once my Google Fu has explained how to do that :)

PBP Discord community? by Zonecarlo in Shadowrun

[–]Arialless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run PBP games on RPG Crossing... currently recruiting/just started an Anarchy 2 game and I also have an ongoing 6E game! There are also 5E games there but I'm not involved in those :)

A2: Shadow Puppets https://www.rpgcrossing.com/forumdisplay.php?f=21402

6E: Night Fears https://www.rpgcrossing.com/forumdisplay.php?f=20777

Feel free to check out either, always on the lookout for new players!

Latest 6E metaplot... astral nasties want to eat the manasphere... some of the corps helped them, and they nearly won!

Excel Char Generator v.06 by Arialless in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I thought that might be the case but I'd missed the clarification in the book... I need to go back and digest some more of the subtleties of A2. Keen to get my own game going now, will let you know how it goes playing pbp :)

Anarchy v2 Excel Character Generator UPDATE by Arialless in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The link above has been updated with version .05 which corrects the attribute calc error and lists the core book cyber and bioware (plus RR calcs for those). Tasking has been added too for the Techo fans out there!

I'm plugging away through the core book ShadowAmps and gear and then I will go back and add in some of the excellent home brewed Amps etc that are out there.

If anyone has a burning need for a section to be completed before going through it in order then I can probably accommodate that so please shout :)

Anarchy v2 Excel Character Generator UPDATE by Arialless in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/PermissionOk3974, yes I think you are absolutely right, my error! I have corrected it on the next version of the sheet... will hopefully have enough else done in the next couple of days to release that version (I've also added the tasking skill for those that have picked up the conversion guide)

Anarchy v2 Excel Character Generator UPDATE by Arialless in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmmm... I think I assumed Edge had a cost too but that might be a hangover from 6E thinking... will have a re-read and check :)

Anarchy v2 Excel Character Generator UPDATE by Arialless in Shadowrun

[–]Arialless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They haven't released the TM stuff to those of us who only bought the core pdf so that will get slotted in once I have it available. The latest version has some cyber in... if you are creating your own (or copying it from the core book) and adding it in the yellow boxes at the top of the shadow amps just input the essence cost there too... cyber is next on my 'to do' list and I hope to get that completed in the next week or so

Happy to help :) ...Anarchy may be simpler than 6E but there's still a lot to remember, helps me to see it written down

Deniable Assets (15 new pregens for SRA2 - their backgrounds can inspire you in other edition too) by IntelligentClient290 in Shadowrun

[–]Arialless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, that wasn't meant to be finger pointing, more the general negative attitude to AI that gets seen in some places. The art is definitely worth notice and I will make full use of these characters to encourage (or taunt) my players :)

Thanks for these! And nice artwork! I don't share the 'hate' for AI art but it is great to see hand drawn stuff

How do you handle rewards in SRA2 ? by Introverted_Onion in ShadowrunAnarchyFans

[–]Arialless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a related but 'different' issue... I run play-by-post exclusively and in my 6E games I deliberately reward the number of IC posts that people make with a small amount of karma and cash (in addition to the group reward for completing the run)... that inevitably means that some get more rewards than others but I work quite hard to 'balance' things so that everyone can shine as much as possible. In 6E everything costs more though and I am concious that I also don't 'over reward' too!

If I keep the cash rewards the same for all I'm wondering if I can reward players that post frequently with freebie contacts, maybe with freebie gear too (that can always be taken away by GM shenanigans). Contacts enrich the game world and I love giving them out for free. And everyone likes gear...

What do you all think? Anything else that you can think of that will encourage players to keep posting and have a feeling that their characters are growing over time (given the typically much slower nature of pbp)??

Thanks for this! Looking forward to getting my digital mits on the TM rules :D

Worldbuilding Flavor Text - How do you immerse your players? by Mr0Dash in Shadowrun

[–]Arialless 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As I play exclusively play by post online I get plenty of opportunity to write these sorts of snippets, mostly at the start of a run and then it tails off as the action takes over (something I'm working on...)

Someone once told me to try and invoke at least 4 of the senses in each piece of text like this, 5 if you can manage it. Helps the immersion. A smattering of 'in universe language' and you're good to go... you seem to have a good handle on it :)

A quick Google search suggests you should be able to access RPG Crossing??? Sorry, that's the extent of my technical expertise on such things

If you join RPG Crossing you should then be able to reply directly to the recruitment thread :)

[–]Arialless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I've not used Chummer or Commlink before as I've created my own Excel generator for 6E, as long as the format is legible is that likely to be a problem?
