Anything but a spellchucker sounds good to me.

Also, we have a few people here who know 4th edition, so it's not a big deal to show someone the ropes.

As for the book, you can check out drivethrurpg.com, which has PDFs of all of the books, or you can be a pirate, Arrr.

 Not that I would condone the cool, cool crime of piracy.

I suppose I ought to consider creating a character then?

[kv]

I think it would be a lot of fun if you did.

Okay.  Believe it or don't...had to do a D&D character last week to start some noobs down the geek trail, so I'm a bit behind... (I whipped up a bard and bought a treasure map to the the derelict temple for the deity of Amphibians and Retribution...?  Really, sez I, hell of o portfolio, is he in the same pantheon as the lord of toenails and daisies...of anvils and toast...the noobs were worthless for about the next fifteen minutes)

I'm still serious about running this- did I have any interested players?

Hi Kid,

I'm interested, just not finished with my character

[kv]

Interested is what I'm looking for- if it takes you a little longer to make a character, I don't mind so much; it just means you'll be more patient when it comes to my stuff when you have to wait a little bit.

I had nibbles from ROOTless, Zone, Ingo, Van, and Apocalypse. Ingo has re-mentioned that he's interested and making a character; anyone else want to chime in?

Ingo, what sort of character were you making/interested in playing?

[Ingo Monk]

Gonna try and make a hacker/rigger.  If the points don't work out to my liking I'll stick with hacker.

[kv]

4th edition has a much better crossover between tech-types.

No more: "Can I hack his car?"
No.
"Why not? It's run by computers?"

Let me know if you need a hand with crunchy bits or anything. Have I mentioned that I'm a big fan of the new forum software? I love that I can finally use shortcut keys to mark text.

well if you could kid whip me up a mercy to play would apriate it

Someone made mention of this missions thing that they do here in Colorado of which I just moved to... So If I understand proper you are looking to put together a group for some sort of game somewhere (here?) and need some bodies to fill in...

If so I would be definitively interested in broadening my understanding via interactions of more experienced types... I can work out a character in a short bit based on any lacking requirements which being that you need a wheel-man I may look into 'rigging' a character to meet the groups transportational needs... but yea...

[Zyano]

btw are the other books allowed... ie Augmentations?

[kv]

The Shadowrun: Missions starts in Denver (the first one was in Seattle, but it's actually in 3rd edition still), and yes, I'd love to have everyone on board.

Mercy, what sort of character were you interested in having? A mercenary of some kind?

 Zyano, everything is allowed, but I'd like to keep things basic (since things are basic for the Missions, and I'd like to let everyone get over the learning curve and enjoy playing).

I could run 'Back to the Shack' first, if you guys want.

Just wanting to know where I could potentially build from thou, I was thinking something with cybernetics but if needing to be simple I will try and do what I can.

This will be a PBP?  If so I guess I need refereed over towards how things are done via determining success.  Online Dice Roller?

Just use to do some slightly DMing of DnD ver3 online and disputes about dice always came up.  I made it plain to players I would be doing the rolls and they agreed to it since I found that letting them 'try' to be honest was not working out really well.

But I am more than happy to try and fill some sort of roll in the group if we have a good established PC's filling other roles.  I do not want to be fighting over a spot that may already be filled.

Meat Shielding is a good roll I can play... wheres that red shirt....

[kv]

I'll try and convince Ingo to import some of the dice roller code that other forums use- if nothing else, I'll use the invisible castle roller to do my rolls, and post the links so you can keep me honest.

I've played a few PBP games in my day- Mythweavers is a good site, if you're looking for more games. I stick around here because I like the people.
