Shadowrun - Cyber Fantasy

[glenrm]

Does anybody have any ideas for running a Shadowrun-like Cyber Fantasy setting? I enjoy the Shadowrun world but Hero is the only game system for running a game IMHO. Do you just combine Fantasy Hero and Star Hero or are there any other products or sites that could help with this?

There is a Shadowrun pbem game over at herocentral. That may have info/links.

Use the Search utility to do a board scan -- there have been threads about this before, and you might find some interesting material.

You may also want to check out the star hero book line. It's got some advanced computer stuff, cyber punk, etc. Also the UNTIL powers has a section on cyberkenesis (sp?)

Particularly in the Star Hero and Other Genre forums. (glenrm, I didn't notice before that you are new, or I would have mentioned this before.

This thread contains most of the material that's been posted to the current and old boards on the subject, either as discussion on the thread itself or as links. There are extensive notes on creature conversions by johnflang near the end of the thread. Also look for the posts by Damon_Dusk: he developed a fairly comprehensive Shadowrun/HERO conversion, and included an email address where you could request a copy of the file.
