Listen Up you Primitive Screwheads!!!
The Unexpurgated Cyberpunk Referees Guide is a resource book for referees(GM’s) for use in Cyberpunk 2020.
LISTEN UP, YOU WHINY SCREWHEADS!!!
“Bob’s super-Solo’s killing everything he meets!”
“My players always start the adventure in a bar!”
“Why can’t I get anyone to play Netrunners??”
Does this sound like YOU? Refs. Let’s be honest. You’ve heard this kind of whining before — and aren’t you sick of it? I mean just fed up to here … so much that you wanted to leap across the table and kill the guy!? Except…it’s YOU?
Before you resort to cyberenhanced suicide; examine the alternative: Listen Up You Primitive Screwheads!!!! The Unexpurgated CyberPunk Referee’s Guide. We grabbed six of CYBERPUNK’s best (and most opinionated) Referees, writers, and players, as well as the creator himself, by the scruffs of their necks and made them tell us what to do:
- How to start a Campaign
- Good character rule choices — that aren’t just Solos
- When your players think that they’re smarter than you.
- Beef up your Lifepath: Why should the Cybergen kids get all the angst?
- How to run combat against an ex-Marine — and not lose all your NPCs in the first round
- As a bonus, you get Uncle Mike’s Dirty Tricks: notes by the Master from a thousand savage conventions
BUT WAIT — there’s more:
- Blowing Things up for Pleasure & Profit — and Explosives system that’s realistic and works!
- And a completely indexed list of all the new skills and rules ever published!
Cyberpunk 2020
The Corporations control the world from their skyscraper fortresses, enforcing their rule with armies of cyborg assassins. On the Street, Boostergangs roam a shattered urban wilderness, killing and looting. The rest of the world is a perpetual party, as fashion-model beautiful techies rub biosculpt jobs with battle armored roadwarriors in the hottest clubs, sleaziest bars and meanest streets this side of the Postholocaust. The Future never looked so bad.
But you can change it. You’ve got interface plugs in your wrists, weapons in your arms, lasers in your eyes, bio-chip programs screaming in your brain. You’re wired in, cyberenhanced and solid state as you can take it to the fatal Edge where only the toughest and coolest can go. Because you’re CYBERPUNK.
Cyberpunk: the original roleplaying game of the dark future; a world of corporate assassins, heavy-metal heroes and brain burning cyberhackers, packed with cutting edge technology and intense urban action. A game system that combines the best in realistic action and playability.
