Shadowrun A Savage Worlds Conversion for Shadowrun Second Edition
Author's Note Welcome to my Savage Worlds conversion of Shadowrun Second Edition. Existing Savage Worlds conversions focus on Shadowrun 4+, however I am a huge fan of the earlier versions of Shadowrun. The 2!s are where I li"e it #est, and so the $lan for a fully fleshed%out conversion of Savage Worlds for $laying Shadowrun during the times of the Second &and may#e later, Third' Edition was #orn. I tried to ca$ture the flair of Shadowrun which originated in certain game mechanics. If you have $layed Shadowrun with the official rules #efore, you will recogni(e Essence and )i *oints, although #oth have #een modified modified to fit into the Savage Worlds rule system. If you $refer a different a$$roach, have a loo" at Wrath of om#ies Shadowrun 4 conversi conversion on &lin"ed in the -$$endi -$$endix x '. I modified cy#erware and )i $owers in order to #etter integrate them into the Savage Worlds rules. I also too" the li#erty of using the $rice ta#les from Shadowrun 4 as a #aseline for $rices, #ecause the Shadowrun 2 $rices for cy#erware and other things are sim$ly ridiculous. ou will need the Shadowrun Second Edition Core Rulebook &mostly Rulebook &mostly for the Shadowrun #ac"ground, #ut also for some descri$tions of cy#erware, $owers, and e/ui$ment' and the Savage Worlds Core Rulebook Deluxe Edition &Savage in this document'. There may #e some things ta"en from other Shadowrun source#oo"s, #ut those will #e Worlds DX in ex$lained, so you don0t need any of the other Shadowrun #oo"s. If youre familiar with other Shadowrun conversions, you may find some similarities with them in this conversion. Sometimes I too" ins$iration from the wor" of others, other times it was sim$ly coincidence. Every#ody whose wor" contri#uted contri#uted to this conversion is listed in the Thank You section You section in the a$$endix. See you in the shadows, and always remem#er1
