[QUOTE="Cedric, post: 1074127, member: 2044"] First edition Shadowrun...while a unique concept and setting, was...well, nothing to write home about. On the other hand, the current release of the rules (and maybe final release, but who knows), Third Edition...is a very good game. Many parts of the game are streamlined and more easily handled. The game is not as deadly, and there are optional rules to handle how deadly you want it to be. You can control how much technology, mysticism, realism and everything else goes into the game very well. The setting is phenomenal. If you want some Shadowrun Specific forums where you can get a lot of your questions answered, try [URL=http://invision.dumpshock.com/index.php?showforum=7]here[/URL] Let me know if you have any questions also. But I want to share this thought as well. I like the d20 system. It's simple, but well thought out...with nealy limitless capabilities for expansion and imagination. But it is [B]NOT[/B] the end all and be all of gaming. There are many good systems out there, don't get so locked into one system with multiple settings that you lose sight of some of the other great systems. Hero being a prime example. While it's certainly not D20...Shadowrun is a very fun system stacked onto a great setting. Cedric [/QUOTE]
