I understand that it's generally 30 days from the release of the dead tree edition, but the PDF and paper releases have usually been at the same time (or near enough to it) so that it doesn't matter.
Now we've had the Run Faster PDF for over 30 days and the paper version is not available yet. Any chance of Run Faster becoming legal prior to the paper release?

I highly doubt it will be legal before 30 days after the hard cover release. Honestly that's a good thing. They need all the time they can get to balance the different character generation methods, pick which positive and negative qualities are right for missions play, and figure out missions stance on metasapients and infected.

Dont worry it will be here soon enough :)

The only time making a PDF legal before book release has been considered, was going into a major con (we're talking Origins or Gen Con here).  Any other time, it has not been moved up from 30 days post dead tree.

At this time no release date for Run Faster has been confirmed.  However please know, you're not alone in wanting it out.

according to the Critical Glitch facebook page, the first sighting of the DT version of  Run Faster was at Ohayocon from a player's pre-order

however the official release date has yet to be announced.

It will still be 30 days from official Street Date, since that's when the bulk of Shadowrun Players will have copies.

Yeah, I saw the date, I was more wondering if you'd made up a list yet.
But I guess I'll take that as you'll get it to us by then :)

yup measure twice cut once. Would much rather it get as much thought as possible than need a ret con or to have something promised to us and then taken away before it becomes official. No rushing perfection they say ;)
