I'v only had a chance to skim the Crossover rules, but they look
good. (Sorry if they're not posted to Shadowrn. But I think I
saw them there as well. It's hard to keep up.)

Not that I realy need them in my game. I've been haveing
Vampire and Shapechange charachters for some time. It doesn't
realy outbalace the game, as I have rewritten the priorities
chart. Vampire PCs have to become Vamps during the course of
play. Not as the result of background options. The benefits are
balanced by alergies and weaknesses that are compulsory. And
the fact that Cyberware can't be added. It tends to fall off
when you change form!

I use the More Meta's rule, but shapechangers are Priority `A'
this stops supper charachters. I also only give the options to
players I belive could play it sensibly, this is the main way to
get around munchkins.

I could run the ST system with a SR background or an ST
background with SR mechanics, It doesn't make any difference.
But I like to keep them seperate.

Ok enough. Bye for now.......
