Welcome the Denver, chummers- I know some of you have been here for years, others are fresh fish.

This is the OOC thread for the Shadowrun: Missions games we're going to run on here. Post here with your character ideas, questions, and the like. I'll answer as soon as I can, but don't be afraid to ask your fellow runners as well.

which edition?  and are you prepared for magic/trolls (or a magic troll)

[malady]

Any room for an experienced shadowrunner in a PBP job on here? Ive got a couple of different characters setup, including a hacker/technomancer in the works.

[kv]

Honestly, we've got room for days, so if you want to play, just post a character concept and we'll figure something out.

I would like at least 4 players for the game, to make sure there's enough for everyone to do and to keep it going. If we don't have four interested players, I think we'll need to try something else.

[Mr. Van]

This still in the works?

[kv]

I have 0 out of 8 slots filled... so 'in progress' is an optimistic definition.

  - kv

[Mr. Van]

Wow ok so need I even submit a character?

[kv]

You can if you'd like. We can fill the rest of the roster with NPCs, other players, and our local miscreants in guest spots. I'm not above making the effort.

Hey Kid, am I correct in assuming that you're planning on running the start missions from the Shadowrun website?  If so, I would probably be interested in giving it a shot, since I plan to run the same set for my group (whenever I get around to playing again).  Playing through the missions will give me a much better insight into them when I GM them. 

What kind of characters are you looking for?

[Zone]

Do tell, I've been on the gamer wagon for a really long while now, maybe I'll try and pull that part of my brain out of mothballs....

[kv]

Wow, three actual players? I might die of SHOCK!

Seriously, you guys can play anything that sounds interesting to you. I've read through the first eight or so missions, and they have a good blend of tech and magic, although they're pretty low-body count (if that's a downer for you). There's a lot of travel between the different districts in Denver (major game mechanic), so if you're making a troll with a PAC, you might want to have a viagra prescription or something to explain what you're hiding under the blanket in the bed of your buddy's truck.

For a three-person group, I'd recommend one magic-y character, one tech-y character, and one character with a car and some driving and covert skills. You can all fight over who does what.

Dibs on the techie guy!  I guess it wouldn't be hard to be the car guy too.  I'll give it a shot and see what happens.  I don't think rigging is as hardcore as it used to be...

[APOCALYPSE]

If there's any NPC that I can play or comment out of then I will. I love to do those especially if they're my kind.

[kv]

In 4th edition, it's really easy to be a tech rigger. It just means buying drones instead of high-level computer programs. You can have a bunch of mid-level computer programs, or a bunch of other skills and the same low-level ones (which is how I built my rigger for another game), but riggers are no longer a distinct skillset.

Apoc, I'd be happy to have you play an NPC. Let me track down a PDF and read through the first session again, and we'll figure out who you can play.

If I'm playing, I'll take on anything but a spell chucker.  I don't do magic well...


btw, I've never done 4th ed. either, nor do I have the book, just thought I'd throw that out there...
