Hello Everybody!
I've been listening quite a while now to this list and as I am about
to start a SR-Game as GM (first time GM too!)I want to thank you all for
your diskussions and rules, as they have told me more about the game as
most of FASA' s books.
One of my major Problems is getting those books (here in Austria you could
think they are at least Streetlevel 10) and so,as I am visiting the southeast
of the US this September, I would be very grateful for Adresses of Game
Shops (best Atlanta or New Orleans).
Thanx in advance
Stefan

Probably the best thing you can do is when you get over to Atlanta or New
Orleans is pick up a phone book and hit the yellow pages [business section],
then check under the headings "Comic Book Dealers - New and Used" and
"Games
and Supplies - Retail". Most Comic book stores in the USA also carry gaming
supplies. Call around before you go.

And, check the advertisement section in the back of U.S. published
gaming magazines. You don't have to by the magazines, just pick one up
in the store and thumb through it. Atlanta's a pretty big city. It should
have at least one big gaming store that places adds in the major
magazines.
