I had the opportunity to chat with Jason Hardy while at Con on the Cob. We talked about Shadowrun of course. We specifically hit on some of these; Evolution of game mechanics (light), An archetype book, Ares Corporation, Splintered State, Intro box set, Sprawl Gangers, and Crossfire.
You can check out everything you need on Shadowrun at Catalyst Game Labs.
At Con on the Cob Jason Hardy ran a seminar on the Shadowrun universe. He covered the following What is Shadowrun, Shadowrun 5 overview, what’s next for Shadowrun, writing and drawing for Shadowrun, what kind of character to play, and philosophy. I hope you enjoy it.
If you listened you are as excited as I am about Shadowrun’s future.
Figure Forge 38 Badlands Rally
In this episode of Figure Forge Matt assembles all four gears for Dream Pod 9’s new game Badlands Rally. These models go together so easy it isn’t funny. Dream Pod really out did themselves with this set of models. They maintained a high level of quality and kept the models approachable for new modelers. I think my personal favorite is the Jerboa.
Thanks for watching. We hope to have more Heavy Gear coverage in the near future.
