You're kidding? You're actually going to play DNA/DOA? I have a copy
of it (merely for collecting purposes) and when I read it, it barely
even seemed like Shadowrun to me. I guess there were a lot of growing
pains in the really early books, before they had a set theme laid
down.

My bigest gripe about DNA/DOA is that becase SR was so new and untried
back then, FASA had hired a big name D&D writer to write their first
module, and the whole book just reeks of D&D cloaked in SR's clothes.
