Method, that sounds like me, but I play. I have probably 20 un-used characters for every one that I've actually played.

What about a sphere?

Well, I believe the original Virtual Realities would tell us that the silver sphere was Renny . . . ;D

I know, I know, off topic . . . ;)

Yeah, I cannibalized my Sprawl Sites, placing all those generic archetype maps into my dedicated "Maps" folder. <laughs> And am now, (as in between reading posts here now) working on an Excel spreadsheat of all the spells in the game. I'm tired of flipping through a handfull of books to find a spell, it's TN, it's drain code, and effects...

I'll own all SR3 books within the matter of days. Finally, my collection shall be complete...<rubs hands in maniacle, OCD glee...>

I don't mind passing out copies. You have to have the books for them, though, for copyright reasons. PM me the first sentence from page 10 of the following books:

SR3
Target: Wastelands
Magic in the Shadows
Target: Awakened Lands

If I'm forgetting any books with spells in them, let me know folks.

That's fucking irritating!

My books are half a globe away, so I guess I'm out. Even though I am one of the more vocal advocates against copyright infringement.

Edit: Note that if someone really was a pirate, they could easily download the books you have listed and PM you the sentence requested, so this is no assurance that people actually own said books.

You are correct, Fortune. But, it's also a means of covering my ass to a limited degree. Paranoia is part of human nature for a reason. ;)

Grendel - that is f**ing amazing.

Best set of compiled tables I've ever seen. Not sure they come within fair use provisions though.

You can't play the game with just that spreadsheet, you at least need the mainbook in order to give the numbers any meaning.

I'm *very* OCD about grabbing every book ever printed. I'm not even sort of near being there yet, but it's a serious complusion for me. Even if I don't like the book. I won't buy Matrix or Target: Matrix until I have a copy of everything else in the area, but it's still on the list. I'm even picking up Earthdawn for it's SR connections. (Maybe I'll find a fantasy game I don't hate there, we'll see.)

At this point, I would commit crimes for Lone Star, the Tirs, Aztland, and Harelquin. (Not harlequin's back. I can pick that up at any moment.)

LM, if you pick up some Spanish language chips, you could try Arlequín, the Spanish edition of Harlequin. They even updated the NPCs' stats (but they left SR1's Matrix design, bummers!). I could point you to a Spanish retailer if you want. I've heard they're working on a translation of H's B.

Oh, and Matrix is a fantastic book I can't stop reccommending. Go get it. ;)

While I haven't reached the levels of OCD some of you guys acheive, I do own every SR book released (all editions, but not the reprints) except the lCharacter Dossier which haven't reached Sweden yet and the 3rd edition reprint of Street Samurai Catalogue (read it through, realised there was no point in owning it) and together with a friend I own all the novels.

I also own most of the minitures ral partha created, and a few of the grenadier packs.

I have no Duels stuff, however, and only three Earthdawn sourcebooks.

Jong, someday I will probably take you up on those spansih translations, but not until I'm done with the english. I wonder if Japanese SR is still set in Seattle...

Well, after a week of squeezing the sheet in between work and family life, it's finally complete. If anyone wants a copy, please adhere to my guidlines posted, and I'll be more than happy to shoot a copy to whoever wants one. Please let me know of any fixes that need to be made.

Oh, and I finally recieved the last of my SR3 books... :D
