Any word on if/when London Falling will be legal for Missions play?

Immediately.  These are Missions adventures.  They were part of the 2012 CMP set.  They've been revised a bit and updated a bit for SR5.

Time to send my runners to die against the Guns of Brixton I guess. ^_^

Can we get Debriefing Logs for them?

There aren't any in the ones in the file I downloaded from the Demo Team download page.

They probably can be easily made if someone has a PDF Editor, since the convention dropbox contains a blank default debriefing log, or simply done manually for the time being. However, I'd appreciate an official errata file with the logs. :)

I'm a bit surprised by the SR5 karmic rewards of the runs though. Given the high dicepools you tend to face, with 16/18/15/18 as highest, I'd have expected 6/7/6/7 as total karmic rewards, not 5/6/6/6.

I have also noticed that Artholomew's Connection Rating doesn't appear anywhere.  I can make a 1/3rd page Contact sheet using the Template from the back of one of the draft mods I've got access to as an Agent, but not knowing the Connection Rating makes it a bit hard. I'm going to guess in the 4 or 5 range because he seems to operate exclusively in the UK (London Sprawl).

I would agree with the second one, but the other three seem to pay high enough to qualify for karma reduction due to the "cold-hearted bastard run" modifier on the karma awards table.  As such I'm not going to complain about the end rewards too much.

Granted I haven't looked through the complete adventures yet (something about finals week(s) for pharmacy school right now) and it's entirely possible I've missed other things that would raise the end rewards back up, so if your estimates accounted for things other than the dicepools, I apologize (and if so, I would appreciate a more complete run through of your estimates...it would save me time for my home game.)

The potential nuyen ceiling in at least a few of them seems to offset the relatively low karma reward.  One run might have the highest ceiling I've seen.  (No, I'm not going to go back over everything and check.)

True, did not read enough of them for cold hearted bastards.

So whats the word on the debriefing log?  I'd like to run this for my Missions players but having no log puts a hold on that.

I've sent a PM...though I think this has been out long enough that it would be good to include in some fashion for all purchasers of the produce (electronic or otherwise).

If I recall correctly, I contacted Drive Thru RPG and mentioned that they were missing, and I offered to provide them so they could add them to the package. They declined and said that they would ask Catalyst.

I think this is the first one of these that did not include the Missions Logs as part of the actual book itself.
