Hello, I'm going to be a first time gm for a Shadowrun game coming up and none of us really have experience with the system since playing 1st edition briefly when it was new. I would like to put together 4 basic characters using only the core book for the players to choose from and employing the standard 400 build point limit. I could use some of the pre-mades from the book, but they look pretty awful even from a very inexperienced player. I know I'll need to cover the face, magic, matrix, muscle, and probably stealth angles with possibly a side order of rigging. Obviously there can, and will need to be, overlap there with 4 players.

What kind of statted out characters would be effective and fun in this situation? I'm obviously being lazy here, but since I need to figure out how the rules actually work (since my players will probably only have a modicum of game knowledge, meaning I'll have to do a lot of hand holding) I'm coming to more experienced people for help.

Thank you in advance.
