5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Additon to 3rd Edition, December 15, 1999

By	Nick Raven - See all my reviews

Shadowrun 3rd Edition has been very well thought out, in my opinion the best game balanced edition to date. This book adds a very needed overhaul to the implant technology for SR. The authors went through great detail to cover all areas of 'cybertechnology' which had been previously covered in SHADOWTECH and CYBERTECHNOLOGY and made them better balanced and playable. In addition to updating the previously published 'technology', it adds many new systems as well as explains some of the most debated and controversial game rules. The book is very well laid out and most references made to other SR books are very well cross-referenced. A must for any Gamer that wants to keep up with the SOTA. It surpassed many of my expectations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of useful revisions!, December 10, 1999

By A Customer

This 3rd Edition book is great! The revisions to the rules that they've made in here make things so much easier and so much more interesting! There are no more unfair advantages (well, some maybe, but less). And it's much more mage friendly. All of this is VERY good. And the additions are cool, too. The balance tail, for example, looks cool and is functional, too! All you 'Runners out there, GET THIS BOOK, it's worth it!

4.0 out of 5 stars More Gear - Less Filling!, March 22, 2000

By	Michael St. Pierre (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

Although packed with all sorts of useful information, nifty 'ware, and cool equipment, Man & Machine continues the latest FASA trend of fairly flavorless material. As a reference book, this is excellent... well cross-referenced, covering a great deal of information previously availiable only after searching through multiple volumes, and well clarified and thought-out. For the toymonger or the street sam in the group, this is a must-see. However, don't expect any shadowtalk here, folks, it's strictly rules and equipment.
