Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd share the news. The supplier for the game store in town
just informed the owner that 2nd edition for SR cards will be released on
the 20th of this month!

This 2nd run everyone is talking about, what exactly is this going to
be?

The same cards re-released?

Different pics?

Totally different cards?

Actually it's called 2nd Run.

The answers to your questions are yes, yes and yes.

It's a reprinting of primary set. There's approx 30-some cards from the set
slated to be replaced. Prime Runners are the most likely target.

Some cards will get new artwork. Card text will be cleaned up and clarified to
take care of some issues that were found in the Limited Edition (aka 1st Run).
Stuff like trashing vs sleazing, Hand Razors will more clearly state that two
can be used on a runner, etc.

What about the ratio of rarity of the cards ?? Personnaly, if the third
of the cards are rare cards (like in the 1st run), I will not buy second
run. I like this game and the product, but I'm not ready to buy another
2000 cards to have a complete set of 360 cards.

I agree, they should put two rares in a pack to solve that problem.
