Ok. Now that the SR4 pdf is out I think its about time we start having some SR4 games around here.
First up, I'd like to do something quick and simple to test/familiarize people with the combat of SR4. For that purpose I have converted the Food Fight! scenario from the First Run adventure book. For those of you who aren't familiar with Food Fight!, it is basically like a random encounter. After a night of doing whatever, the group of shadowrunners stop at a Stuffer Shack to get some munchies. Unfortunately, a group of gangers have decided to rob the place at the same time. As the guns start blazing, food goes flying as various packages are shredded in the hail of bullets. I want to make sure this runs quickly since it is just for familiarization purposes, so please only speak up if you are serious about playing and posting a minimum of once per day. To get started I just need character concepts from people. Just a few sentences will be enough, though I will accept more lengthy ones if you like. Once I have selected from those concepts, there will be time allotted for chargen using the standard 400 build points, with assistance via post or pm as needed. Also, while we run through the Food Fight! scenario, I will be looking at the characters' backgrounds and designing more of a true adventure around one or more details within them to follow this up with. |
