Yo, a definite MUST if you ask me is the Grimoire - by far the most
enjoyable/usefull/interesting Sourcebook for SRII. It describes tons of
new stuff about magic and its workings.
Schadowtech is good - kinda munchkin though and not value for money,
but it helps to keep the munchkins in your group happy :)
I liked both Tir sourcebooks very much though the Tairngire one could
do with a bit more history and the NaN Og one with a bit more detail -
the magic was cool though, even though it leaves you with a feeling of
disapointment for not being able to use it :)

If your going to play a sam, you definitely need shadowtech!
Shadow tech has a section on Bioware, a great addition to cyberware, lots of great
chemicals, dikote, and some other neet goodies like Bone Lacing.
If you have a mage, you need the Grimoire.
The Grimoire has the rules for initiates, Druids, Enchnting, Free Spirits, creating
spells, new spells, and some stuff on toxics and insect spirits.
Fields of Fire is good for Sams
Fields of fire has new weapons, equipment, and a rules compilation that can be pretty
usefull.
And if you play a rigger, you need The riggers black book. Speaks for itself.
And if your a DM you need as many sourcebooks as you can afford for ideas to keep the
plots new.

Hello folks,

Anybody got a Prime Runners book and a Tir Tairngire book they'd

If so, please respond to the e-mail address below..
