So, what are you looking forward to in the new year? Are there books that you hope will be released? Any new games you're interested in? Or even what you'd like to see plot-wise?
Share what's coming up in your games, or talk about what you want to see in the future.

As for me, I love my plot-books. Kechibi was good, but it felt sparse on the impact (even though the code itself could be shattering). Of course, I'm hoping this is the year FastJack comes in from the cold, and maybe a bit of seeing the progeny of Netcat & Slamm-0! make some appearances in the web, giving grief to Bull & Glitch (and maybe helping Clockwork's heart grow three sizes!).

Lifestyles! And the metavariants + HMHVV characters, those are always nice to build a bit more variation into NPCs and runs.

Oh, that reminds me! The Lifepath character creation!!
-
Some more intel about the Black outs would be good!! Haven’t finished the Kechibi code yet but I don’t think there’s anything in that?!
More qualities, character creation options… and yes, metavarients etc :)
-
I'd like to see a few adventures set outside of the "usual locations" - North Africa, Middle East and China spring to mind.

Ditto on all of this -- I don't care if it is a Run Faster equivalent or just a lot of options published in another way, but the basic character options in 6e feel a lot narrower than in 5e, between lack of metavariants, lack of qualities, and lack of 'ware options.
Also, the amount of time since Cutting Black, with no information on what was going on, is getting ridiculous. I had to make an "In my game" decision as I just couldn't reasonably stonewalling investigations any longer, I just hope I don't deviate too much from canon. (I went with something hinted at in the French version of Cutting Black, but by no mean do I think that was definitive).
-
Actual playable A.I. rules suitable for Shadowrun Missions.
-
Oh. The return of industrial lubricant rules. The slip-n-slide grenade is sorely missed.
-
Primarily, I would like to see SR6 rule books for the matrix and for augmentations coming up (including a cerebellum booster somewhere).
Additional rules on long-term cons / social engineering would be nice to highlight that side of shadow running. I am also curious to see, if there will be an additional iteration / further compiled errata of the core rule book.

There is a kind of Intuition booster in Double Clutch, but requires being in VR.

I would like a Seattle Sourcebook and a few full adventures set in Seattle.
in addition the Matrix Book and Augmentation Book

Shadowrun: Edge Zone ;)

Well there's always SRM 2081 if you want Seattle adventures. Let's see how long it will take to get all published. (Since even at cons the last run is in 2023, this will unfortunately take a while.)

Recently bought the SR20A Runners Toolkit....HOLY CRAP that is a fantastic box set. has there been any word on a SR6 Runners Toolkit?

Sor3y you lost me....im new here lol. so there are Seattle based missions for 6e?
-
Yes, but currently only at conventions and wherever demo-agents offer them. They're not yet published. Currently publishing is at 09-03, so 9 more Neo-Tokyo runs to go, then they'll start publishing the Seattle runs.
-
I want a pony.
-
Give me a sheep first.
-
Are you making a pony out of a sheep ... ?
-
No but he still owes me a sheep for Sim Dreams & Nightmares. o_O

Honestly, I would be willing to pay a (nominal) subscription fee for a digital monthly magazine (sort of like the Atlantic, New Yorker, Economist, etc) that summarizes current events in the Shadowrun world (ex: Seattle: How we got here; Who is Johnny Spinrad?), some history articles (Boston after CFD; 30th anniversary of the Great Ghost Dance; The Tragic Fall of NeoNET, etc), and maybe a preview of some gear (The new Volvo G950 is the sprawl's new go to ride; The Hi Tech rifles Ares CorpSec is using in the archologies; Springtime Fashion for the Daily Commute).
It should have several articles that bring new players up to speed on current events, summarizes an event (or series of events) in Shadowrun history, previews a piece of new gear/magic/matrix thing, and could have a piece of short story fiction.
This could be used to clarify rules, bring people up to speed on the lore, introduce new items/mechanics that may need play testing, all in a manner that feels like an in-game publication. Of course, a cherry on top would be to have ads sprinkled about that highlights products and events from minor (and some major) corps as a way of introducing new ideas, groups, and lower-tier corporations/institutions.
I bet the community would be willing to provide much of the content, too.
Did I mention the subscription fee (aka steady monthly revenue)?

A new color set of tokens and dice would be nice. Maybe blue or red? It would be helpful if players could have unique colors at the table to distinguish edge tokens
-
Yeah hopefully they start considering that stuff again - I don't know how well things like Cards are selling during the pandemic, I'm sure many people like myself have moved to meeting online, but I like the board gaminess of tokens and gadgets.
-
Very very true. I feel like i’m definitely hoarding accessories in hopes of a more physical future for games.

Cool, I didn't know the Executive Dice came back in Stock.
