Underworld is the first official expansion for SRTCG, to be followed by
Corp War (what you probably mistook as CyberCorp), which is just about
to hit the shelves.
I'm currently open-playtesting an expansion set (currently called "The
Amerindian expansion set" -- I'll think of something nifty later).
Currently it sits at about seventy-five cards; in fact, I should have an
update ready to post to the list tonight, for comments and further
submissions. When the expansion is ready, it'll be formally submitted
to FASA; everyone who's submitted a card will, with luck, get a byline
on the actual printout.
There are other, unofficial expansion sets on the web. I have three (in
slight disarray) on my website: the first is The Containment Zone, based
off of the Bug City and Target:UCAS sourcebooks. The second, The High
Seas, has a nautical theme (and is the largest of the three). The last,
Seattle by Gaslight, features Detectives and Lone Star Runners, and is
still being worked on. All three are viewable at my website (sig in
url).
Forrest - who used to post frequently but apparently is in lurk mode -
also has a number of cards posted at his website (
http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Zone/3056/srccg.html ). From time to
time, other people have posted card ideas (Norm McLeod and Don
Arganbright, most notably perhaps) although I'm not sure if either one
has a webpage.
I'm not sure what FASA has in mind after the Corp War release (well,
hopefully Second Run will become a reality). The Amerind expansion set
will get submitted sometime -- at its current rate of growth, in early
September.
