Summoning changes
Monday, March 22, 2021 in Blog
Some streamlining to summoning
- Drop concept of services, spirits just last some number of hours now
- A raise on the summoning roll makes the spirit tougher instead of granting more services
- Add a reminder to the page about the Power Preparation rule from core SWADE
Augmentations
Sunday, March 21, 2021 in Blog
- Moved all cyberware/bioware/adept powers under a new Augmentations section (this was later removed again.)
- Set out the difference between cyberware (bought with Implant Points) and Bioware (not bought with Implant Points; instead, acts as a trapping for pre-existing SWADE edges).
- Edges that are available as bioware require a trapping ie. they cannot be taken by normal characters / mages.
- Added the following pieces of bioware:
- Adrenaline pump
- Pain dampeners
- Synaptic boosters
- Bone density
- Overclocked / hyperactive platelets
- Buffed/clarified smartlinks.
- Added improved vehicle control rig.
- Added wired reflexes.

New "what's new" section
Sunday, March 14, 2021 in Blog
Moved “what’s new” to be a proper Hugo blog. Doesn’t mean much for the site, but I wanted to learn about how Hugo does this.
Updates – 13 Mar
Saturday, March 13, 2021 in Blog
- Add some details about criminal SINs to SINs
- Moved a lot of stuff around on the site; there should now be a three-way clean separation between Sprawlrunners rules, Shadowrun rules, and Setting information that is not system-specific
- Moved Matrix setting info to setting/ section; now the Sprawlrunners section only has rules
- Moved this What’s New? page to be a top-level site page
- Moved all my old Shadowrun Matrix stuff to the archive section, as it’s no longer canon in our campaign and not under development any more
Updates – 26 Jan
