Prepare your datajack for a driveload of global cyberculture, friend.

Remix your mind and your DNA with the transhumanists of Tangaroa. Screen yourself from the UV, the corps, and the nanobots in Aotearoa. Swim through the stifling oppression of law and history in the capital of the European Federation.

Resist the corporate boot crushing the last bastion of North American freedom. Blow over the agri-prison baseline and the voodoo hooks of the Big Easy. Slink out of the lab and into the streets with keen eyes, sharp claws, and a vengeful mind.

Circle with the sharks of the Global Giant of Africa: smell the fire in their spirits and the spirits in the fibres. Dance from terrace to tower in the Paris moonlight, rapier in hand, honour in mind. Take down the fat cats and the dirty dogs with anthropomorphic abandon.

Play in the Caribbean sand or slog through the Florida swamp at the nexus of terrestrial and orbital borders. Fight your way free from the bleeding edge of militarised capitalism at the fractured terminus of a new Korean cold war. Kick against the current in SoCal’s melting pot of simsense dreams, global commerce, and covert water wars.

Twelve new ways to experience The Sprawl. Are you ready for the November Metric?

Sorry to be a bother but we’ve run into an issue looking over the playbooks.

How does ‘I Know People’ on the Fixer differ from the base ‘Introduce a Contact’ move? It seems to work the same, save that you need to roll.

We’ve also run into cyberware not lining up between the playbook and the cyberware section (Neural Interface, Skillwires). If the two sections dispute, which takes precedent? I’m guessing the cyberware section?

I’m sharing this to let you all know that I’ve started a Twitch stream (https://www.twitch.tv/peregrinekiwi) which will initially be mostly content related to The Sprawl. It will be irregular, probably announced on Twitter, and I’ll be uploading it to YouTube afterwards (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiOyj21bqvLPgrngqnyJPGg).

This episode was mostly just a test run to try my hand at streaming and the various technical things I’ll need to keep an eye on for future streams; the signal to noise ratio is low! In the future, I want to use this format to answer questions and have discussions with people via the chat interface, but I’ll happily take questions in advance. It’s an experiment; we’ll see where it goes. Comments and suggestions welcome, as always!

Also, Dana and I made a lot of progress on art and layout for the next supplement today. More news on that soon!

Hey everyone

Hey everyone,

here with another question, how much liberty do you give players when creating a custom item? I have a player who is wanting to create a custom vehicle. He is willing to spend the 8 cred and hit the streets.

the specs:

frame: hover craft/car

design: military

profile: Power+2, Looks+1, Weakness+2; 2-Armour

Strength: Fast & stealthy (active camo against visual and electronic surveillance)

Look: Dangerous (Im taking this as the +armed tag)

Weakness: cramped & guzzler

along with this he would like it to posses:

noise suppression system

gyroscopic mount for weapons

auto cannon

and omni directional firing.

He paying for a custom vehicle but i feel like this vehicle is a bit much with a lot of potential for fictional positioning but im not sure how to deal with it. someone please send your advice my way

Somebody from this board was posting something about drugs.

I took this idea with Cyberpunk2020 in mind where you can cook your own stuff.

Here is my first draft.

Feel free to comment this document.

I think drugs are quite important for cyberpunk.

Ran my 3rd session of the Sprawl last night.(first session following a character dying and the group failing a mission, players are cool with that happening) Still trying to get the hang of moving legwork and action clocks. After the game last night, while talking with the characters, we fell in the idea of scene clocks. The help both me and them gauge how the scene is shaping up. Does anyone do this? Any tips and hints for when I try incorporating this clock?

Currently playing Blades In The Dark with my Saturday game group, none are interested in a second game of The Sprawl (family obligations and all that). But, me without a family, I am jonsing to play this game! Does anyone have a spot open for a player? Pacific time, work early (6-ish am untril 3-ish pm). I can, however, make something work.

After I MCing Dungeon World, Worlds in Peril, and The Sprawl(now playing), I feel keenly the importance of using Tags as fictional positioning and as an ingredient in MC moves. But sometimes, I forget to use (or don’t know how to use) them and just make a series of dull description. And I realize the story starts to go flat.

I love Tags because they fuse into the fiction seamlessly(which is the main reason why I switched my go-to system from Fate to PbtA. Sometimes, using Aspects feels artificial to me). But unlike Aspects, I find it very easy to forget to use Tags because there is no bonus or penalty to use Tags. They are only for fictional positioning.

So, how can I become proficient in using Tags as a MC? Could you share your tips?
