Hi, I’m looking for a few playtesters for a Shadowrun hack for the Sprawl. It will happen Wednesday Nov. 15 at 6 pm pst. We have run it for Shadowrun players but would love to get feedback from people familiar with the Sprawl and PtbA games. If any on here would like to help and play a one-shot (possibly 2 shot) let me know.

Here’s a link to the hack: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B67EZlLqY7BtNDhaN3ZWM2JfSVE/view?usp=sharing

I’m all new to PbtA games, but I love how The Sprawl figures the Cyberpunk theme. My still “old school” mind asks me to include a few more moves in the game, that I feel are needed to increase the options for the players when doing an infiltration in a secure place (very common in how I envision cyberpunk missions).

As said, being all-new to PbtA, I’m sure my new Moves will lack the finesse of the ones provided by the game. I’m not even sure they are needed at all. But as I said, something in me still struggles with the idea of playing covert-ops and not having them.

Tell me what you think, please, or help see how and why they aren’t needed in an PbtA game.

Sneak:

10+ You are a shadow

7-9 You’ve done it, but choose 1:

* Leave traces (Advance an appropiate Threat Clock)

*Takes more time than expected (Advance the Mission Clock)

*An ally gets noticed

Understand technology:

10+ Ask 3 questions

7-9 Ask 1 question:

*What is its purpouse?

*How does it work?

*How can I use it?

*Who built it?

*What problems could it cause?

*Is it illegal?

Physical prowes (Athletics):

10+ You do it

7-9 MC chooses 1, based on the fiction

*Take +1-harm

*You loose footing/grip

*You are stunned

*You lose something

*You are noticed

Let the thoughts and corrections flow.

Thanks to Hamish Cameron, this is now a real thing, and available to you all.

I wanted to ask permission before distrubiting (freely) a hack I have been working on for porting Shadowrun into The Sprawl.

I have tried to be very careful to not include anything in my hack that makes the game playable without owning The Sprawl AND a core Shadowrun book.

I plan on posting it mainly to a few Shadowrun and Sprawl social media sites and thats it. It will probably clock in at 12 to 20 pages, most of which is a new playbook, foci, amd revisions to a couple existing playbooks.

For the Major Advancement: Make a Second Character, how does this work?

For the Major Advancement: Make a Second Character, how does this work? Do they have two characters that they rotate in and out at will? If so, how do they earn XP and cred?

Otherwise, do they now have two characters in play at the same time? Or is this more of an MC’s personal interpretation?
