Has anyone compiled a list of where each rulebook and sourcebook falls within the overall timeline? I know that SR3 started in 2060 and I've heard that SR4 starts around 2070 . . .
I'm trying to gather a complete collection of 2060-2065 information. As an example, I don't know where Target: UCAS and Target: Smuggler Havens fall within the timeline and the rules systems. Are they pre-2060? Are they SR2 or SR3 compatible? I'd hate to buy a book that used an older version of the rules . . . |

This page covers all [most?] of the FASA published books: http://www.xs4all.nl/~gurth/shadowrun/sour...ok%20dates.html
Most of the Target series of books had very minimal rules information -- both Target: Smugglers Havens and Target: Wastelands have roughly 18 pages of "Game Information", not all of which is mechanics. 2060 to 2065 is really SR3-era only books, which is basically FASA books from mid 1998 to 2001, and FanPro books from 2001 until SR4 in 2005. |

I made up this list for my own use, so I figured I'd share it. The dates are the initial post at the start, usually by Captain Chaos if there is one, or the setting date. Anything without a date has no "in character" information.
Corporate Punishment (Adventure) Cannon Companion Shadowrun Companion *Corporate Download - 26 February 2061 Critters *Dragons of the Sixth World - 16 February 2063 First Run Magic in the Shadows Man and Machine - 2061 Matrix - 2061 *New Seattle - 8 August 2060 *Renraku Arcology Shutdown - 10 February 2060 Rigger 3 *Shadows of North America - 14 August 2062 *Sprawl Survival Guide - 30 April 2063 *State of the Art 2063 - 5 January 2063 *State of the Art 2064 - 20 December 2063 *Target: Awakened Lands - 12 June 2062 *Target: Matrix - 1 August 2061 *Target: Wastelands - 16 September 2062 *Threats 2 - 11 July 2061 *Wake of the Comet - 2062 *Year of the Comet - 1 January 2061 There's also System Failure, which has stuff that covers a fair bit of time, plus... [ Spoiler ] And don't forget Brainscan... [ Spoiler ] I haven't got Shadows of Asia or Loose Alliances yet, so I haven't added them to the list yet. |
