I wanted to see what I can learn of the SR back story as many of the events of the metaplot as I can. Shadowrun has one of the longest running, most developed metaplot exclusive to an RPG. I see no reason not to take advantage of that. ;)
Could the veterans please give me some advice on what books, from any edition, to look out for? I'm mainly looking for the material that covers the bulk of the metaplot. Not really the random flavor texts that appear in the corners of chapters. I would also like to know what books contain elements of living in the Shadowrun world and what life is like in the later half of the 21st century. Hmmm...curious...what year did the original SR begin (game year, not RL year)? Any help would be great! |
