Wouldn't it be appropriate to cyberpirate Cyberpirates?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohplease.gif) I've seen the pics now of the Mapuche areas with the dotted lines and the big honking toxic zone heading to antarctic, whats the story about that stuff; and what is the status of Ecuador, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay- Is Uruguay part of Amazonia or Not? it was supposedly absorbed in 2062 but the sixth world almanac has it independent Or is it a puppet state or "Autonomous" within Amazonia? and what about the Falklands and south Georgia I bet the Magic in those places would be Real interesting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/indifferent.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lick.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wobble.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/twirl.gif)

QUOTE it was supposedly absorbed in 2062 but the sixth world almanac has it independent The answer is 'crap editing' and crappier work on the map, which is off and inaccurate in almost every place. -------------------- "Communism is like ideological Herpes. It never seems to go away."

As far as I know, the best way to describe Uruguai is "it is a puppet state of Amazonia".

It looks gorgeous. But one first nitpick: why isn't Metropole on the map on page 5?

You can't just skip the use of ambushing, cover, ammo selection, or targeting and just 'roll Firearms'. For social skills, you also have to ambush, cover, select ammo, and target, THEN roll the dice. |

Looks very nice. Haven't had a change to sit down and read, but just did a quick skim on it. Just to confirm, this book is set in 2064 and is for SR3, right?

It was put together from the drafts written for a SR3 book that was never released.
