So what books does adam have that the rest don't?

I'm missing the new Sprawl Sites, and that Into the Shadows Graphic novel.

that's it.


Oh and Silver Angel from the 1st edition Game screen. Still haven't been able to find that.

What else is there to get except multiple copies of Denver in the Shadows for all the sector passes?

Adam-san has an official Shadowrun phonecard from Japan, and has recently taken to collecting all the international Shadowrun books, like the France Sourcebook, the German FanPro products, etcetra.

I can't compete. Even with my minis.

I started thinking about taking up German just so i could read the novels and books not published here.

Miniatures are something i didn't get into. I lost patience after painting all those old D & D minis from eons ago.

Not sure if i'd want the french sourcebook. It would conflict with my OFFICIAL/CANON German Sourcebook :grinbig:

Oh, you almost certainly don't. :)

BTW, there is no "Graphic Novel" of Into the Shadows; just a trade paperback and a slightly larger paperback.

I'm currently waiting on one of Japanese SR products to arrive. :)

I'm actually not sure. I just know it was cheap and something I didn't already have. Unfortunately, the Japanese SR core book was around $100US, and I don't have that kind of cash floating around.

Typically from the publishers websites or by talking to people who live or visit there. Obviously it's easy to get the German products, and with Quebec nearby getting French language products isn't that difficult, either.

I have a Shadowrun DocWagon First Aid kit that I must have picked up at GenCon one year. That one probably only saw one production run. :)

Now that gencon is closer to me i gotta go to both Origins AND Gencon.

I got a press pass from the election. It was for the Brackhaven party. He was a Humanis puke i think.

Bleh. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Personally i voted for the dwarf eco nut.

Soka for the Linkage Shadow , but I am a little taped out at the time now .:(

I know I still have a ways to go . I only have 4 novels , but I wanted to catch up on my US source stuff first . A lot of this I have been searching for for years .Right time right place for once I am always a step behind .
For instance the last time I saw Guide to real life , my friend reached out and grabed it just as I saw it . :(
The up side is allof it was less than $100 , so I don't have to here to much screaming from the spousal unit .:)

Yep ;) I'm really just giving EVLTIM a hard time over it. Generally (not always), if a phrase ends with "ka" in Japanese, it's a question (the "ka" actually being a spoken question mark). "Soka" generally is a question along the lines of "Is that so?" It's generally used to seek confirmation of something.

"So desu ka." is an ultra common phrase which means "I understand" and is an obvious exception to the "ka" = question thing.

[edit] SR seems to use "so ka" where "so desu ka" is more correct. However, it's quite possible that "so ka" is used that way in the future (or even now, in slang, for all I know). The original use seemed to be more along the lines of "thank you", which is a different world alltogether.[/edit]
