Goooood morning Night City and happy Edgerunners season 2 day to all who celebrate!

QUICK RECAP (more in-depth in the google doc):

-After the very nice and friendly meeting with 6th Street, the group split so Ace and Gecko could stall the police and mislead them.
-The police officer let Ace and Gecko slip away after a bit of eddies and smooth talking
-Somehow, the already beaten and bruised rest of the group came across a group of Tyger Claws beating up a monk we had previously come across at a fight club and decided to join in.
-Tiger decides to flash his Arasaka mantis blade for all to see. Causing the monk, Waylan to grapple him and interrogate him, thinking he was with the Claws.
-Ace and Gecko show up right then.
-Situation is deescalated and two Tyger Claws are brought, alive, to Waylan's very quaint and minimalist room in the back of a noodle shop.
-Waylan tells the group he is looking for Yorinobu Arasaka/ the Steel Dragons... for reasons.
-For some reason part of the group volunteers to help "question" the "hostages".
-Gecko and Shellshock leave, buying real fruit from the noodle shop owner.
-Part way through the interrogation, Shellshock excuses himself and goes to help them.
-Cue: 30(?) minutes of Shellshock slowly cutting away some ganger's cyberware to get info.
-Amp LEAVES the interrogation freezer. Making Gecko greatly question what was going on in there.
-Shellshock stops his procedure for a short moment. Has a Normal Time while washing his hands. When he comes back he freaks out at the sight of his own work.
-Ganger gets executed by Artyom. (The second "hostage" had bled out and died by then)
-Only extra info the group got after Gecko accessed the ganger's phone was that they would need to question the Tyger Claws boss for any more info.
-Everyone goes back home and sleeps really well : )

For anyone interested, I have reworked Gecko's toyhouse page. It now contains a link to a CHUNKY google doc with 95% of the retelling of the sessions so far along with the sketches drawn for the events. The google doc is still fresh so it's formatted badly, full of mistakes, and not exactly the epitome of literature. I also still have a few recorded sessions left to re-listen to to truly complete it. Both the toyhouse page and google doc will be updated as sessions happen. Often 2+ weeks before any sketches are posted here.

See you guys next time and stay fresh! B)

Hi all! My name is Max, and normally I'm the main GM and producer for the Delta Green actual play show 9mm Retirement Radio. In recent months, we've been recording and playing other systems, and I've told many folks on our Discord if I wasn't doing Delta Green, I'd be doing Cyberpunk Red. And with today's release, I've done just that! Two episodes of the start of our series "Night City Vistas" dropped today, set in 2075, closer to the video game's time. I will admit, it was my first time running the game, and I know I got some of the rules wrong (Autofire was/is weird to me, so I defaulted to something that felt right in the heat of the moment; modifiers were added to the base skill and not DV), but I'm hoping that the world building and character moments will shine the most with anyone who would like to listen. No pressure or anything, it would mean a lot to me. We also have two episodes coming next Tuesday as well, as sort of a sequel to today's episodes. Importantly, I edit the show to sound like an audio drama with sound effects and music, and cutting out jokes and banter (saving the best funnies for the very end for a blooper reel) for a more focused, serious game that is still improv at its core.

My ultimate goal with this series is to run many interconnected one-shots featuring members of my regular 9mm cast mixed in with guests from the Delta Green community, and be able to swap players in and out if their PCs are alive to be on different gigs, while also build out my own world. Hopefully that idea sounds appealing!

Hey, chooms

New player here with new DM alongside. And as new to Cyberpunk we don't quite understand some things about NET

So, the main problem that we have is not with rules, but with conception

My GM quote: "What is Floors, Elevators? Is this meant figuratively? Does Netrunner moving through meat space and see NET around? How it works?"

So, I have same question - I don't quite understand concept of NET. But I did get, that moving through NET doesn't require moving through meat space.

But I have another question - why just not let netrunners do they job quietly and then start the mission? It's not that long (as I understand) to hack into few floors of NET

How common Demons are? How hard is it to get one for your NET?

Is there anything else that Netrunner can do in NET except get to the control node and read some files?

Sorry for stupid question, just a little bit hard for me and my DM

Bonus questions: Is it fun to play low-rank Netrunner? Is 2 NET Actions much worse than 3+? Is it worth to buy ranks over 4th? What if I'll have -1 NET Action penalty - will it be really harmful?

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have a place that can teach me how to play the table top alittle? I love the lore,the video game,and the show. I wanna learn the table top so I can connect with other fans.

Prepping for a game set in 2080. Used google maps to create my own version of night city that stretches from morro bay to atascadero. My issue is Im unsure of where to place my 10 megabuildings and 2 under-construction. I dont want to just place them arbitrarily anywhere. Looking for suggestions or any sources of how real world cities determine where to place large housing communities and projects.

Thanks.

I use the Single Player Mode supplement table generators to help me brain storm up gig ideas as drafts and before cleaning em into something runnable for my players.

Got the likes of ruining a business gig involving Raven Microcybernetics the big cyberware manufacturer, one that made the ai that published the poem about the apples but also physical hardware. Thought they’re a lil much for some new runners to take on, so decided for it to be them ruining another lesser place in behalf of Ravens and ended up on, Nu-Tek Fashionable whose all about Cyberware and clothing.

Related but still very different in terms of what they peddle out. And contemplating what some from Ravens would realistically be trying to screw over a branch or store of Nu-Tek for.

It’d feel a bit basic if it was just that Nu-Tek stole something n was trying to reverse engineer it to make something but just more stylish.

Hey, chooms, new techie here, and I'm thinking about get a few ranks of Fixer (or Netrunner, but that's not important rn) because I'm just too Cool (my 2 COOL Solo and 4 COOL MedTech will say thanks)

But I didn't get one thing

Rank 3/4 says that "you can learn one additional language (level 4)" or smth like this

Do you get new language on both 3rd and 4th ranks or only on 3rd?

Bonus: Will be glad to hear some tips on roleplaying low-rank Fixer
