There's always room in our games.

In fact, if you head on down to the 'Welcome to the Shadows' section, there's a run going on under the thread "The January Run."

Oh, I'll just link it.
It all started because of that C@FP0W! Machine!

Okay, go there, read up, and then jump in as a decker contact that knows RayMan from the Arcade, and offers to help out.

Can someone get her a sports bra? ;D

Just kidding- welcome to the Pub, Tish. We actually haven't managed to start a 4th Edition Game yet, so if you're interested, I'm sure there are at least a couple of people here who would be happy to participate. (Me among them, although I don't know 4th Edition well enough to GM anything yet)

Yeah, a little. They streamlined a lot of the rules (thier words, not mine), and they made the matrix a wireless 'augmented reality,' where you can hack the devices of the people around you.

And stuff.

I know Ingo (the Sysop) is running a 4th Edition campaign, and he might be happy to do one, and Ruski (my loud-mouthed older brother)  is chomping at the bit to play 4th Edition.

And hell, I'm more than willing to try it out. So we'll have a full roster.

Is anyone else interested in a 4th Edition Game?

Hey Kid Vid, is that game still open?  Do I need to find a third edditon rule book if I wanted to play?  Do I need to create a character or somthing?  Sorry for the questions, but iv never played a forum styled game before.

Hoi Tish,

Forum gaming is just like table-top pen & paper gaming with the exception being that one round tends to take a day or two. ;) And yeah, you are going to have to create a character to play, but Kid_Vid and the others are usually really good about helping out with that. As for me, I still play 3rd edition, so I can't really advise you much on how to go about it for 4th. But just out of curiosity, do you have any character ideas?? You know, background, style, picture in your mind.

Well, my RL game just took a hit when one of da guyz got a promotion that takes him to second shift.  Anyone want to step into a berserker dwarf with a tattooed scalp and a drinking problem?

No? Wise deciscion. ;)

I've never even read fourth edition stuff, though I suppose I should. Is it really 'streamlined' or is just another marketing technique?

It's very WoD, in my humble opinion.

In fact, learning Shadowrun 4th Edition made joining a Werewolf group that much easier!

Well, I did start a thread down in the "Welcome to the Shadows" area, so that we could get cracking on the game, but... nobody responded.

If people wanted to start creating and posting characters, we can attempt to get a 4th edition game on the road, and start learning the rules.

I would love to play, but I haven't a 4th edition sourcebook, thus have no idea how to play

That's okay, none of us do either.

I Still owe you a dvd, actually. That might remedy some of your sourcebook troubles.
