Hi all,
Newbie here (well, semi-newbie, played a little 2e way, way back). Just had a great time with the 8-1 Mission at Gencon, but I'm not likely to get a chance to play again until Gencon next year. Which means it sounds like my next mission will be in Neo-Tokyo!
We did a character generation session to design our characters, but our guide was aiming at helping us get characters ready for Chicago. It sounds like there's some differences: Neo-Tokyo will presumably offer more opportunities for deckers. I get the sense that weapon legality is also going to be a bigger deal (I'm seeing that blades are across-the-board legal, but guns are across-the-board illegal? So should cybernetic weapons or holdout weapons be the only firearms I expect to be able to use?). Any other big differences? Thoughts on how the setting change might affect character builds?
