I typically contact InQuest through their editor -- IQJeff@***.com .

Since one of the best ways to promote the game is to have published
articles for it, I'm running a special offer for people looking to
publish 'stuff' for Shadowrun -- a free box of First Run.

Ideas I'm thinking of: Deck construction and deconstruction; 'power
card' listings; and, basically, anything that showcases the unique
quality of the shadowrun card game -- bluffing, for instance, and the
psychological impact it has on the game.

Top on my list: A feature-length article suggesting means and methods of
integrating the card game into the role-playing game. (Both Inquest and
Shadis do both ccgs and rpgs, so this would be ideal for either one.)
One possibility might be to allow each player to get a 'deck' of ten
random Specials (or contacts?) that they could flip over during the
course of the game, to throw in an unexpected loop; another might be
ways to craetively interpret some of the ccg Runner's abilities into
role-playable characters.

Please contact me through *private* email for more details.
