From the retailers previews:

SHADOWRUN: CROSSFIRE Danger lurks behind every card in the Shadowrun: Crossfire cooperative deck- building game!

Improve your character by buying Hacking, Spell, Weapon, and Skill cards from the Black Market to add to your deck, while overcoming a variety of obstacles to your mission and threats to your lives. Plus, you'll have to contend with the dreaded Crossfire deck, which serves up deadly, new events each round: you might have a Reversal of Fortune, encounter an Astral Surge, juggle a Grenade, or have to deal with the enemy’s Hardened Defenses.

Nice to have a rough timeline for the releases. Thanks!

These are print prices right?

Someone's been researching real life Internet threats.

"One way security can break down is in a Sybil attack. Named after the case study of a woman with multiple personality disorder, a Sybil attack is a type of security threat when a node in a network claims multiple identities."

Sounds interesting.

I like how the core book isn't even out yet and apparently the 5E companion is already in the works.

Hey! WTF is the magic book, everyone knows that's first after the core book.

Hm, the companion before even the gear book? Not sure what to think of that...

Maybe they were concerned about all of those 'runners who have their heart set on metavariants, etc...

I'm all for an early Companion myself-as someone who uses metavariants and the other chargen options I really like the option to get it sooner. Then more toys.

I honestly doubt that list.
It looks a bit like how Amazon gets their release dates.
Stolen Souls was mentioned somewhere before, and it looks like it makes sense, from the synopsis at least, but my personal interpretation is that this is a working list of possible products, not a complete roadmap of what to expect when.

There is no reason to doubt the list. That is the information that retailers order product from and it is from the distributor. The dates may be off a bit, but that is because the products need to be ordered months in advance, in this case, 3-4 months. This list is compiled from 3 months worth of preview material, April, May, and June.

Sure there is a reason to doubt it.
1) New products are usually announced by the publisher themselves.
2) Amazon and other retailers make a habit out of guessing release dates.

As long as I have no official news on any of the official websites, there is reason to doubt it.

If this is the real plan, I am slightly troubled by the fact that apparently, only a companion-ish book is planned in terms of core expansions. No matrix book, no augmentations book, guns book, magic book, no advanced books on any of the core fields of Shadowrun rules. Traditionally, these books can and are used to smooth out any troubles with the core rules and add beloved equipment for legacy players, which are the bread and butter for the RPG market. I can only hope this is not official or close to the official plan. Just after releasing a new edition, plot books is what is least needed.

Somebody always gets the short end of the stick, if not metavariants then characters with a certain tradition/stream, cyberware, pimped drone...

Jason said shattered stats and stolen souls in his rpg chat the other night as next products up.

Shattered stats doesn't happen until I start making NPCs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

EDIT: Shattered States, OTOH...

Oops not so good at typing on iPod, big thumbs!

Interesting. Surprised to see we are not getting a Seattle guide book in the first initial release. I don't mind that the companion is coming out before the gear books. What I would really like to see is a sourcebook for rural/island shadowruns.

I'd like to see an update for Hawai'i. My group really hates thinking about going to LA again after what I did to them the last two times.

...wouldn't that mean potentially dealing with Naheka?

Sure, the dude's no Lofwyr or Lung, but still, far as I know, there's not GD roosting in LA.

No GD, but there is The Magic Kingdom, and ComiCon is just down the road (In Aztlan!).

Who were you planning to make them "extract" next? Spider Man? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

No, already did a superhero (Batman), I'll have to think of something original.

It's called Splintered State, actually.

:smirk:

I would love a new sourcebook for Hawai'i and the rest of the Pacific islands. Though this might be due to me playing more Far Cry 3 since Blood Dragon got released and rewatching the Black Lagoon series.

Amazon has a bare bones page up, claiming the release date is 7/3.

http://www.amazon.com/Shadowrun-Fifth-Edit...run+5th+edition

(man between SRR, Crossfire (assuming it comes out around that time), and SR5).. My head will explode from so much shadowrun... like a Shadowrun Cortex Bomb!)

Edit: They also have a page for Shattered State, but no release date

No date has been officially released. Who knows where Amazon got their data.
