Hoi, chummers, As to Shadowbeat and Shadowtech--Both books are
currently listed at $15.00, one of them should be appearing in about 6-7 weeks
at your local Bookstores, probably sooner at hobby shops. The other one is
delayed to an unknown time after that. FASA gave original release dates of
November to distributors, then moved them back to March, as for when both will
actually be out... I dunno. Both were announced at Gen Con Last August, and
they said expect to see them in the spring. ShadowTech should have every type
of Gadget in it that anybody ever wanted. Ranging from Nukes to Electric
Toothbrushes and everything in between. ShadowBeat will have all the info.
about everyday life in 2050. Starting with the TV schedule and going through
Combat biking, including a debate as to where it should take place ('Keep
Combat biking out of the arena's and back on the streets where it belongs!').
It will also have rules for playing the professional sports and what teams are
in what cities, etc. Over the weekend I got a chance to look through FASA's
Spring catalog. It only listed one of the two sourcebooks in it (I think
Shadowtech), so I'm feeling really unsure about when both will be on the
market. Hope I was able to answer a few questions...

Anybody interested in a conversion system for Cthulu monsters to
Shadowrun stats? I just developed one and a system for calculating a Shadowrun
Character's sanity... if there's enough interest, I'll dump it to the list...

ShadowTech is also suppose to have lots of biotech stuff. I'll try to
find out when those two will be released..
