She’ll cut you up real good. Work on the city kit continues apace, so I thought I would preview another spread, this time it’s the quintessential gang generator. Simply read across the columns to quickly bring a street gang in to play, or roll several times…
Very cool!
Gonnna use this in the future, thanks for sharing!
Geist’s blog is awesome. I really like what he’s published thus far and the city kit is going to be a must have for my future Sprawl games!
I hadn’t heard of this project before, so thanks for bringing it to my attention, David!
Thanks all! Out in January, I hope, and totally system agnostic, so useable by any self-respecting cyberpunk GM, regardless of rules preference. 😉
Please feel free to post in this group when you release it, Geist! I’ll be picking it up for sure.
Will do!
Playing around with this to create interacting factions. Made a group of eight and 4 of them were street fighters. I rolled a die between the 8 to figure out whom the last table connected them to and what it created was a ring of Street Fighters and their connections to the Underground. Most of it centers around Chosen Terror, Street Fighters whom manufacture their own needle-guns and flechette weapons, and how they either trade their weapons with dumpster divers and hackers, or use them to threaten gangs and other competition. Most interesting to me were Radical Kidz, who could be a Street Fighting Hacker as an individual rather than a tribe; and the Polymer Kids (Buddah-faced Political Gaurdians specializing in smash and grab jobs, for money and fire arms) who are targeting the rival of their ally for dumpster diving territory and in a turf-war with the Subway Clowns, another street fighting group.
Elliott Canada Awesome!
Geist, it seems like these are really good for coming up with a sandbox atmosphere by populating it with threats. I absolutely find it engaging,
I just generated Crosstown Hammer, Rag Enshrouded Tech Junkie Boosters running their own minifactory for the weapons. They are concerned with employment and harbor a exile or outcast from a wealthy and powerful family, Catherine McAlister, the head of the Biodivision R&D at Health First and do so as part of their employment with the same corporation. Screaming Army, a group of militant, couture stealing Boosters whose finical and legal backing allow them to engage in extreme road race stunts. They owe money to Miguel Fernadez, a tech dealer for Honda-Davidson Vehicular Drones, who runs an illegal street clinic. They are being destroyed by rival gang, Subway Assassins. These Ubermensch Chromers obsess over Olivia October, using the neural boosting drugs and intellectual sims to go deeply into the music, which is always playing around them. They robbed Health First pharmacies to get a hold of a dangerous narcotic.

If this was the opening set-up of game I’d have two plot lines to follow, McAlister + Crosstown Hammer +Health First, and Screaming Army vs. Subway Assassins.
Elliott Canada That’s fantastic and is exactly the way I intended Augmented Reality to be used. I’m really glad it’s proving to be so useful. And thanks for taking the time to let me know!
