Hey there,
First time poster (and I apologize in advance for my english as it is not my first language) About a week before 5e was announced, I bought a copy of Shadowrun 20th anniversary rulebook. I don't have much experience with Shadowrun but after 20+ years of D&D and 5+ years of Warhammer 40k rpg, it looked like the way to go... But with a new edition on the horizon which seem to adress a lot of "problems", I'm at a bit of loss. My RPG budget is not what it used to be and I just can't buy books for both editions, the one we choose will be the one we will be playing for the next few years. So what do all you experienced Shadowrunner's think, is the next edition worth the wait? Should I store away my SR4A core rulebook and wait a few months for 5e or should I just buy the 4e core supplements (which are getting harder to find) and start playing now? Thanks Btw I also posted this on the Catalyst game forums but I wanted to have Dumpshock's opinion on the matter |
