I concur. I've often wondered how a new player or character was supposed
to to just join an established shadowrun team without some kind of
connecting plot. It just doesn't work-
"Uh, you bump into a decker named Chip and you realize that you
share the same fixer..."
For realistic mergings the story just has to be deeper than that,
at the very least to explain why the established team would trust this
new guy on their backs in a firefight. The GM should definately be
involved in this process, IMHO.

Late!
