There is a Shadowrun LARP at GenCon.  Past LARPs for SR at GenCon were for Missions - is this one a Missions LARP?

You can... LARP shadowrun? You know paintball and airsoft still hurt pretty badly. Kinda takes the fun out of using a sword or fists... wait how do you adept in a Shadowrun LARP? Or mage or shaman? Or is this just dressing like your character?

The SR LARP is priamrily just dressing in character and running around the con interacting with others, no actual combat takes place :)

That sounds fun. My character has 1 charisma so my awkwardness and naivity will be in character!

We are sad to say that the Shadowrun LARP has been cancelled at GenCon 2016.

The demand for Shadowrun Missions and CMPs is exceptionally high so we had to cancel the LARP to reassign GMs to meet the highest demand.  Unfortunately, the LARP is not a high demand event.

GenCon will notify those of you who purchased tickets.

Sorry about this, but hard choices had to be made.
