i found myself reading this: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/08...currentPage=all
and wondering where the SR policlubs have gone to. Sure the occasional humanis is paraded, but the kind of masses of angry people seems to have largely vanished. |

Still there. Sons of Sauron. Mothers Of Metahumanity. Multiple others.
Blame the Angry Trogs, it's the UCAS way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) |

They got downplayed a lot in SR4 for some reason (ALong with a lot of the other tropes that defined earlier editions of Shadowrun). I know they play a part in Season 4 of Missions though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Why bother asking that question? B&E would be more fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

It's not hard to figure out. The Ork Underground plays a big part in one of the plotlines for Season 4. It stands to reason that if you're using a lot of metahumans, Humanis can't be far behind.

The description of policlubs in SR1 Seatle Sourcebook was somewhat funny to me. It's like they made up a word for something that have always been existing on the European political scenes.
