A few months ago I started writing a little narrative to explain the SR5 matrix. I wanted to achieve two goals:
1: Present it such that it contrasts with the SR4 matrix.
2: Present it in such a manner as to be approachable by both new players and long time Shadowrunners.

I also wanted to do it without mentioning dice or rules, rather present it to players for role-playing, not roll-playing.

I just dropped in on the Dumpshock Datahaven site.

Constructive criticism is appreciated. Please try to stay on topic.

NOTE: Several long time Shadowrun players who proof-read it said that they learned things they didn't even realize about the matrix in the 101 section. Regardless of any other feedback, I consider that the highest praise as it achieved my desired results... and for people who game at my table on a regular basis.
