AUGUST RELEASES

Shadowrun, Third Edition

The popular fantasy cyberpunk game gets updated, revised and improved!
Shadowrun, Third Edition features a completely new look and feel for
today's science-fiction and fantasy fan. The core rules remain
essentially the same, but are presented in a more user-friendly style
that will help new players understand the game and give experienced
players a fresh angle on their ongoing games. Current sourcebooks and
adventures will be compatible with Shadowrun, Third Edition. This
revision also updates the Shadowrun timeline, so that the core rulebook
is the only book new players need to begin playing Shadowrun.

Note: The price will change to $30.00 after the first printing.

Stock - #7001
Price - $25.00

Woo-hah!

A bit of additional news (occasionally, it's good that my personal e-mail
account is on AOL). Unlike previously reported, SR3 will hit stores in the
middle to late August, *not* September as we thought.

Also, the Corporate Download sourcebook. This is described as the color
pages in the Corporate Shadowfiles blown up to an entire sourcebook (i.e.,
paydata on the corps themselves, little info on business practices and the
like). This is on the FASA calendar for a release date of January 1999.
Which means those of us really diggin' on the BitB action will have to wait
another six months or so for our next big fix on that front.

Oh yeah...SR3 baybeee!!

Alright, an update to my favorite Shadowrun sourcebook. I know a lot
of people think its useless, but I enjoyed it. Good stuff in there
about how corps work, I thought.

I'm still waiting for one of the lame stores around here to get
BitB... but enough on that subject.
