| Did anyone see this before? I sent this post almost a week ago, and it

I read it and agreed with it. Didn't respond because I didn't want to spam
the list with a ditto :)
| The world map idea is a good one, btw.
On this I have something to say. FASA's stance is that they want
GM's to have the freedom to do what they want with the rest of the
world (at least, that's what I heard). So they aren't going to
publish a world map. Fine. Except, that they make several
references to other countries from time to time. The one that comes
to mind is a reference to a metahuman country somewhere in Siberia.
My feeling is that if they are going to say something about a country
they should at least let us know where that country is. I don't need
a World Sourcebook, I just want to know the names of countries and
where their borders are. And if they don't want to lose money on the
deal they can post it on their web page (with one of those standard
freeware notes that if you like it send a couple bucks to FASA).
The lack of a world map is the only thing about Shadowrun that really
frustrates me.
