I need to learn to write better… Or stop trying to post at work…
What makes a good runner group? Does it have to be super specialized or can a generalist group compete? I like a group that has been designed- just like the characters – to perform shadowruns, and usually a specific type of run too. Does this take some of the fun out of the game? My problem with the ‘gang of criminals’ shadowrun method is an issue of suspension of disbelief. Sure, there is now magic, and orcs and elves… but people are still people.. Throwing 12 6th worlders together (with or with out SIN’s) isn’t going to get you a good baseball team. And a running team has a higher standard to meet than most baseball teams, in baseball you mess up you loose... in a shadowrun you mess up you go to jail or die.. or worse some one else goes to jail or dies. Sure shadowrunners are not nessacarly the cream of the crop, but they still have to do the job, otherwise they wont get hired… |
