Using the SR 6e Matrix rules in SR 5e
Being a Matrix backport attempt, presented for your delight (doubtful) and utility (maybe)
The SR6e ruleset contains a gently streamlined version of the Matrix rules from Shadowrun 5e; these have several useful changes that reduce book-keeping and give deckers a simpler and more agile action economy. In this section, I lay out a backport of these rules to work within the Shadowrun 5e ruleset.
