I'm about to start a new campaign (first in ten years!), and have a preference for 3rd Edition (namely because most of my stuff is 1st to 3rd).

The problem is with a lot of that stuff being 1st and 2nd Ed, has anyone come up with a simplified (even raw) way of converting the old System Maps architecture into the VR2/3rd Ed Security Rating/ACIFS?

I obviously don't expect it to be perfect, but I'm going in blind. I don't want to put in systems that the party walk through, but don't want ones that'll kill them outright either.

In particular, approximations for the System Nodes for Silver Angel (1st Ed GM Screen), Prototype Envy (3rd Ed Quick Start, but too simplified), and Dreamchipper.

Just until I get a handle on what to expect from the players to adjust accordingly. Even if just a base balance is achieved, I'm expecting an MPCP 8-10 decker, with appropriate programs, skills and stats. What's easy/average/hard for that?
