And lastly, at long last, Shadowrun is coming with Holostreets, which allows for the creation of community content. With the help of "art packs and layout templates to give you the professional look you want", soon you can sell your own Shadowrun content on DriveThruRPG.

Errata / Shadowrun Sixth World, Core Rulebook - Issue Reporting

« Last post by Chuz on <03-27-23/1737:02> »

Hoi Chummers,

Report your issues with the Roll20 Core Rulebook Compendium here. 

Please try to list the steps to repeat your issue including the URL of the page if possible and most importantly, be kind.

Remember, character sheet issues are not necessarily related to the compendium though the sheet author may find out about them, as he has sprites everywhere.

Thanks for your patience,
The Roll20 Integration Team

This thread is really great and I learned much about hackers from it. But why is always "Hacking (Hosts)" included and not files? Files are more often the goal of a run and also use the host values.

Rules and such / [SR5] Hacking Rules Question

« Last post by Fatespinner on <03-27-23/0131:27> »

Hi all,

I have a two questions about hacking.

First: Let's assume that I am on-site at a host location. I use a direct connection to get access to the host by hacking a slaved device with direct access. So now I want to control some doors and cameras which are slaved to the host. Do I roll against host+firewall or against the device ratings?

Second: Now I want to access a file on that server. Do I have to roll against the file with hacking on the fly to get marks on the file or would I roll against the host? The defense roll would always be host+firewall, correct? The difference for the hacker would be which hacking spec to get at char gen. Hacking a host should not be such a big issue if you have a direct connection, but hacking a file is always difficult. So why do most builds include "Hacking (hosts)"? Or did I understand something wrong?

Edit: Third question: Would I use control device or spoof command to open doors and to disable traps and guns? To control a gun I would use control device. But for simply disabling? Would a mark on the host (which I gained through hacking a directly connected device) be sufficient for spoof command?

Character creation and critique / [SR5e] Action Hacker

« Last post by Fatespinner on <03-26-23/1420:13> »

Hi all,

I have tried to create a hacker that is good at hacking, but also in action scenes. The goal was to have a character that can be fun in combat (with guns and hacking) nd action scenes (driving and running), but also in the leg work phase and for serving the hacker role against hosts (rating 8-9).

I would like to know what you think and if there are areas where I can improve the characater to better fit the role. I haven't set the knowledge skills (i haven't decided on the background yet) yet and some karma and nuyen is still available.

What are things shadowrunners are expected to be good at? Combat, perception and basic social skills?
