LFG (New to Shadowrun)

[ManyMindsManyVoices]

"I have been really wanting to get into a system other than DnD, for some reason, and I love modern fantasy. Since I can't stand the tweaks to nWoD, and oWoD is just too disorganized for my tastes (I'm really OCD about that sort of thing). I decided to try something with fewer books, but I have no interest in GMing."

"I don't mind being the person who organizes the forums, I enjoy doing that a lot as well. So I can work with a GM to get things organized and stuff, if someone is willing to run the game, and of course, there are people to play."

"I am a very experienced RPer, with at least 8 years (I'm bad at remembering time, it could be 10 or 12 even) of DnD under my belt and having run at least 10 campaigns (3 of which I was able to complete) in a myriad of settings. I will not be a slow learner, but a little nudge of help here and there would be nice."

Expanding out and learning new systems is always fun. I wouldn't mind helping to round out your group, if you find a GM. I have moderate experience with Shadowrun (I assume 4th Edition?) and tend to play Fixers/Technomancers/etc. Technology is cool. :)

I'd suggest a Street Samurai or Special Ops type of character for your first if you want to get into the meat and potatoes of the system without too many extra rules. I find that playing a Mage leads a bit too much worry over physical things, managing your magic, and the occasional random spirit trying to eat you. :3

"I like to be complex, I don't mind complicating my character, if it makes a character I want to play, even if I'm a beginner. I'll learn quickly, it just helps to be pointed in the right direction. Either way, it's good to have someone else on board."

"As is my usual, I won't technically be around for the weekend, so drop a line if you're interested."

Is this Shadowrun game moving and is it 4th Ed?? I hope so. Been looking for a Shadowrun game that won't die on me.

[ManyMindsManyVoices]

"Haven't seen a good a deal of interest, but I'll still play if I have time, someone to help teach me, and a GM. The former shouldn't be a problem, but I have found myself visiting Elliquiy less recently."

I havnt played shadowrun in a very long time and never acctually got to play 4th edition (let alone read the whole book) but consider me interested, but just as a player

[WyzardWhately]

I like SR4E a great deal, but haven't had the benefit of actually getting to play it.  If anyone shows up to GM and looks sufficiently sharp, I'll be very interested.

I would love too play, but the only way I could hope to GM another Shadowrun game right now is if I could find an Earthdawn GM too run where Aeval and I could play. 

[Kunoichi]

And I've certainly got plenty of Shadowrun characters just laying around on my computer that I would love to get the chance to play some time, but I'm afraid I can't really do the GM thing either, myself. ^^;

I can GM 3rd (I won't touch 4th) if people don't mind home brew campaign.

"I continuously wane in my desire to look at system stuff, because a lot of it is overcomplex and restricting. If a 3E Shadowrun were to be played, I'd need a mentor willing to teach me everything from the ground up."

[WyzardWhately]

I can GM 3rd (I won't touch 4th) if people don't mind home brew campaign.

Sadly, the time I played 3rd has completely turned me off the game.  I totally get system-loyalty on the part of those who became attached to the earlier versions, but 4th is sufficiently cleaner, and the technology (to me) more interesting, that I just can't see myself going through the effort to relearn 3rd.

There are things in 4E that need house-ruling out...some of the social-bonus granting items are pretty absurd.

[Hunter]

No problem.  Just offering.

[Chazy]

I aggree. The earlier versions of Shadowrun was way to complex. I like 4th better. It is alot cleaner and more interesting to play. Especially the new character archtype: Technomancers.
