Andreievitch 240 Posted October 31, 2018 I am surprised to see this hasn't been mentioned yet? A wonderfully produced Shadowrun conversion. Hats off to Paul Haakonsen! I can't see this online anywhere other than Christopher West's link on the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/GenesysRPG/permalink/255122858538369/ This is publisher quality and looks like an amazing conversion. I am dying to play it! 2 akumagits and dougansf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dougansf 129 Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) It's a beautiful book, and I've liked a lot of the material I've read so far. But a 600+ page pdf needs bookmarks. Edited January 29 by dougansf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adairhammer 17 Posted October 31, 2018 this is great..the Shadowrun conversion I saw before seems to be starting shadowrun. whereas this seems starts with genesys then makes it Shadowrun flavored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a direct download link there that Christopher West added. I am not sure where the original sits though. Mu Google Fu brings up nothing. I can't even track down the create to pass on my kudos! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted November 21, 2018 There is two Facebook Sites for Genesys, There is Genesys Universal Role playing Game and Genesys Role-playing game which Join Both of them and you will have access to whatever gets done, He has another surprise coming soon...

Drax40K 3 Posted January 3 Possibly copy the URL link from Facebook here instead of the Link to Facebook that has the link? It takes me to the Group Join page. Perhaps I will join, but I really just want to see the Shadowrun Conversion. 1 SavageBob reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noahjam325 105 Posted January 4 Because I also found it problematic to only access it through Facebook, here's a more direct link. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZugRlhH_V_rkSuyCrEnpO3kuOGIBzDDa/view?usp=drivesdk That should be correct. It's crazy how in-depth this PDF is. I think my only critique after reading through some of it is the choice of just using the 1 knowledge skill. If I run this I would probably add more. 1 GnosisNoise reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I have been communicating with Paul since I downloaded this pdf from the Facebook page. You can add whatever you want as Paul Created this Pdf for a starting point for Shadowrun and any of his other pdfs hr has created which is 3 others one dealing with Zombies, another is a Lovecraft setting and his pride and Joy as he is in his 2nd edition is a Fallout adaption and he is working on another setting book and looks great for the parts I have read so far which is a Modern to Sci-fi setting and other things don't want to ruin the fun for you. I am only helping on Feedback since it is all his stuff. Will be highly recommended once it hits the the internet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would love to ask him this and a coupe of other questions. When Paul converted his Shadowrun, his players never played those classes and so would allow you to do your own creation as a couple of us are working on the Physical Adept, I have done the original Adept powers converted over for Shadowrun and here is the Adept as a starting class, we introduce a new Skill called Ki for the Adept. So the Physical Adept is Ki, Discipline, Charm, and Brawl with the other 4 being the players get to select or if it is a Secondary class would not be allowed to pick the other 4. We are into 4 skills that are given then allow the other 4 to be selected as this allows you to open up for characters to have other classes to buy into. Paul can be reached over on the Facebook page as well. The one for quick response would be the "Genesys Universal RPG System since there is 2 different pages for the Genesys role-playing Game. We do have a creative Messenger conversation going on and we talk quite a bit I will let you know he is leaving it up to others to continue his work, he is big into the Fallout setting that he converted over, so whatever you continue to create he will be happy to hear what you have done and he will add changes as we all continue on with his work..

Andreievitch 240 Posted January 15 I fear creating Technomancers myself might be a bit hard given the time I have. I was hoping to use them for a one shot I am running. I am converting Forgotten, the Order 66 module by @GM Chris, to Shadowrun. I was hoping to have the Dorn character be Technomancer, but might him a Decker instead.

gilbur 208 Posted January 17 i have not read that module been helping Paul with another setting for Genesys through our creative group on facebook. so i do talk with Paul on a regular basis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andreievitch 240 Posted January 18 So my thoughts for a Technomancer are as below. I am going to try and make it as simple as possible to convert ASAP. Skill: Technomancer - allows player to access the Matrix without the need for a Deck. Acts pretty much the same as the Arcana magic skill. Spells: I am going to add a Spell descriptor to each of the Matrix Actions. For example: Access system will be a Utility spell, Data Spike an Attack Spell etc. The player then uses the Technomancer skill for these actions just as a Decker would use Computer. What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 18 sounds pretty good, if you put together something, i will show Paul as he usually doesn't frequent this forum like i do. you can start with what you have planned and could modify as you go. i am actually getting ready to put together a shadowrun game myself and going to possibly work on the other meta sapients this weekend and maybe even expand on the adept powers from the magic book... 1 Andreievitch reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 19 so here is two new Metasapients for Shadowrun, check them out and let me know what you think of them. Will most likely doing the others this weekend since we are under a Winter Advisory this weekend. Metasapient races.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 19 got a response from Paul on the Arcane Arrester and downgraded to 2 setback dice, so if you want to change the modification go ahead under the gnome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 20 Here goes a Revised edition of the Adept powers, if you have problems with them, we can talk about them as it is still a work in progress. revised.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 20 So here the final Physical Adept powers to be converted over to Genesys for Paul's version of Shadowrun. Look earlier in this forum topic for the starting skills for the Physical Adept. adept powers.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masablasta 7 Posted January 21 How do power points work for phys adepts in this conversion? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbur 208 Posted January 21 i will look back at our discussion we had a while back. two of us started talking about it and which stat is was going to be based off of as Paul's group was not into the physical adept or the technomancer that is why they wasn't in the conversion but others are working on them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There really isn't any thing set in stone, Chris Hartigan has started a shadowrun game already and has started power points at 2. Which I would use myself if my players play a Physical Adept. This stuff is still in the works as Paul as approved of anything we do, I myself has sent stuff to Paul and let him look it over and to allow him to add to his PDF or if he ever revises his rules.

I have some basic notes on a ki skill and power points somewhere. Will dig up and post tomorrow for you. Note play tesyed yet, but meant to go hand in hand with Gilbur's adept powers. I also added new drain rules to spells casting. 1 gilbur reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snowman81 7 Posted January 25 Fantastic conversion! Just wondering how starting funds are handled though? 1000 creds seems way to little for specific builds (most really). Was that intentional and I'm missing something? Would anyone have any idea how to convert XP to extra resources (from SW perhaps?) to match the appropriate pricing levels in this conversion?
