Full Version: SRM 04-12: Showcase now Available!

The players are lined up. The goals are clear. The waiting is over. The ultimate rush is beginning, and it’s going to pull a lot of dangerous elements closer and closer together until they explode.

The shadows of Seattle have been heaved this way and that in the Great Seattle Artifact Rush, and a fair number of artifacts have been collected (in exchange for a handful of deaths and a helping of destruction). The powers of the magical world have been alerted, and they ready to get their hands on as many artifacts as possible. This means shadowruns, which means plenty of runners are about to be caught up in one of the worst mana-based drek-storms to hit the city in a long while.

What starts as an investigation into a museum heist rapidly grows into a conflagration that could consume a good part of the sprawl. Clever players will need to see if they can survive, and how much nuyen they can wrangle out of the fight. Hopefully they'll get enough for a nice vacation or significant medical treatment, because chances are that they're going to need both.

SRM 04-12: Showcase is the latest in the Shadowrun Missions living campaign. Whether you’ve been playing the whole fourth series of Missions now and are ready for an explosive turn to the ongoing story, or you are new to the series and are looking for a high-stakes, high-danger run, Showcase is ready for you, with the full adventure details and NPC stats needed to give players one of those shadowruns they'll be talking about for years.

SRM 04-12: Showcase is for use with Shadowrun, Twentieth Anniversary Edition.

Available on the CGL Battleshop and at DriveThruRPG.

Does this conclude season 4, or will there be one final thing coming out? Like, a sourcebook?

I wanted to do more, but this more or less concludes it. I ran into serious real life delays, had a couple projects I wanted to do to follow up that didn't find authors or had authors who had to drop out for various reasons, and with SR5 coming up, we're going to shift our focus there (Setting up a new season is a LOT of groundwork.)

That said, the events of these are canon, so it's entirely possible that we'll see more fallout from them, and get to see how Prop 23 effects Seattle and the Ork Underground in Shadowrun 5 books.

Hey, Bull, I've a question for you.

There are a host of Convention Mission Packs that are listed on the Catalyst website, but I've never been able to find if they are available for purchase. Do you know if they are?

There are also 2 Prime Missions that are showing on Catalyst's website that I cannot find. Same situation with these?

PM-02 - Well Preserved

If these are available, I'd love to get my hands on them.

Ancient Pawns at least is in Elven Blood. Don't know about the others.
Bull
I've said elsewhere, these are done and in the hands of upper management at this point. I have no idea what their release plans are. WIth SR5 around the corner, it's thrown things off some, and it's possible they will get converted and released as SR5 adventures.

Bummer. I'd definitely pony up the creds for these, chum.
