Chrome eyes. Computers called "decks." Big hair, big cyberlimbs and bigger guns. It's Shadowrun in the year it all started. Take a step back to Shadowrun's roots with Shadowrun 2050, a book that combines Fourth Edition rules — the smoothest, most accessible rule set Shadowrun has ever had - with the setting that first made the Sixth World a legend. Shadowrun 2050 has everything players and gamemasters need to dive into the grimy beauty that kicked off one of the greatest roleplaying settings of all time. With information on how to adapt Fourth Edition Matrix, gear, and magic rules for the 2050 setting, as well as in-universe information about the powers of the world, what shadowrunners will be up to, and who they'll be running into, Shadowrun 2050 puts a new twist on the classic setting. Captain Chaos. Maria Mercurial. The Laughing Man. Sally Tsung. JetBlack. Hatchetman. Nightfire. And the Shadowland poster who just called himself The Big "D." These people and many others are waiting for you in the year that started it all, a setting brought back to life with new, full-color artwork showing the chrome, dirt, neon, and darkness that was in the heart of Shadowrun when it started and remains at its core today. Shadowrun 2050 is for use with Shadowrun, Twentieth Anniversary Edition.

A beautifully published, skillfully written Shadowrun sourcebook!

Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2012

Shadowrun 2050, while not being the lengthiest sourcebook in the series, is a beautifully illustrated, flawlessly printed, and skillfully written addition to one of the better (and one of the longest surviving) role-playing gaming worlds. Herein you'll be able to travel back in relative Shadowrun time, back to the beginning, but with the newest ruleset. This is the leftside bookend to the series, chummers, and I'm glad it finally hit the street.

New school going old school. What's not to like?

Fantastic source book. It brings all the key elements of the original Shadowrun (complete with slang and decks!) to the rule set of 4th edition. It's thorough without being overly verbose. It has all the conversion rules required while still allowing for a good dose of imagination on the part of the GM. Anyone who likes original Shadowrun but enjoys the new rules should ABSOLUTELY purchase this book!

When you get the opportunity to way-lay over 20 years of plot-line and run the game fresh, it is certainly something to go for.

Erstmal in deutsch...

Da ich vermute, dass Pegasus diesen Quellenband nicht mehr bringen wird, habe ich mir Shadowrun: 2050 von Catalyst geholt. Sieht im Regal aufgrund des Format-Unterschieds zwar blöd aus, macht aber nix.

Der Großteil des Buches ist eine Geschichtsstunde, also quasi eine aufgebohrte Fassung des Almanachs. Es gibt ausführliche Berichte über die verschiedenen Big Player in der Welt von Shadowrun, vor allem mit Augenmerk auf die Punkte, die sich (in der Geschichte von Shadowrun) bis 2070 wesentlich geändert haben.

Regeltechnische Infos gibt es hauptsächlich zu den Magie- und Matrix-Regeln, da hier noch einiges anders abläuft als in 2070. Der Rest des Buchs besteht aus Spielfertigen Beispiel-Charakteren und einer Ausrüstungsliste, bei der vor allem Preise und Verfügbarkeiten angepasst worden sind.

Für alle Nostalgiker, die gerne noch mal Wirepunk durchleben wollen, eine klare Kaufempfehlung. Für alle anderen: kauft den Almanach.

Cool.

Une excellente initiative que d'avoir remis Shadowrun au goût de ses débuts. Les règles pour pouvoir jouer à l'époque étaient ce qui manquaient pour ceux qui étaient passé à la quatrième édition mais n'avaient pas encore franchi la time-line. Achat recommandé mais attention, c'est un supplément, pas un bouquin de base, il vous faut les règles de Shadowrun 4 pour en profiter.
