Those of you looking for information on the next couple of releases, FanPro has uploaded the intros to the two books which should be hitting the shelves in the next month or so, namely SOTA64 and Mr Johnson's Little Black Book. Both are loaded with goodies for almost everyone including a lot of stuff that people have been asking for recently.

(Sorry Adam probably should have waited for you to post)

I assume you're referring to the page not loading, or...?

The german guys were migrating the site from one server to another sometime this week. I guess sometime this week is "now."

2072? Man, the 2060s I can deal with but the 2070s just sound like the future. :-)

Glad I have a book budget... cause its about to go out the window again... JBB looks like another book, with the SSG that I should have players read parts of before they play...

When you say hitting the shelves in the next month or so, do you by any chance mean at Gencon? I've heard the "we hope to have these books out by Gencon" a few times, but as Gencon draws close, no official word that either of them will be there...

Lindt - Clarification, while MrJLBB contains loads of material for everyone, it is for the most part directed at GMs. For example, the Anatomy of a Shadowrun section "guides the gamemaster through the standard process of hiring the runners to commit a crime, step-by-step."

Question Man - If you mean more material in these books then the answer is yes. I'm co-writer on a couple of SOTA64 chapters (one should be obvious, the other not so).

Well, it's fact that the book contains them; whether you think they're good or not is another thing entirely.

Oh I'll definitely buy it. But, seriously, you've got to admit that "fast and simple" rules for covering decking and rigging is promising a lot. I just didn't want to get my hopes up in case that bit had just Slipped In There. Though I guess if someone who's edited it says it's there, it's probably there.

Man it gets harder and harder to catch up on book purchases :( Everytime I think I have a chance new stuff pops up.
Still the two books look very promising ... Guess I should get these two before I buy more adventures hehe

Just wanted to pop in and say that Shadowrun is really hitting its stride with recent releases. I can't think of a single book I haven't liked, and these next two look great too! Keep up the good work, everybody!

I have to contribute my own bit of enthusiasm.... these two books rock, and they were produced relatively quickly. This stuff will revitalize SR for me -- a slew of new Adept powers and metamagic always spices things up, spy gear is something my players have been painfully inventing for years, and Mr. J's Black Book.... well, I'm already brewing on the spin-offs and rule extensions I can submit to TSS. What fun!! I haven't been this excited about SR for many years.
