So with the announcement here (http://catalystgamelabs.tumblr.com/post/139925660561/new-shadowrun-art), what do you think the mash up is? It says there's a hint in the art for the previous article, but I have no idea. I don't really care about Battletech, but am curious.
I'm betting that Racter's bot Koschei is the first Battletech.

Might have something to do with Hyper Power Rabit Go! And their march first launch.

You think it's just for the mech warrior game by hbs?
-
There is already an 8th world mecha version of Shadowrun...

There is also a whole new twitch Chanel that is scheduled to have a night or Mechwarior RPG gameplay, a night of Batteltech tabletop gameplay, and 'More table top to come'
maybe another aveneu for Shadowrun as well, but the dates line up for debuting the new channel and its content.
-
I don't think it's a mashup, but rather some new that will benefit both lines...i.e. bringing back all the FASA fiction, graphic novels, etc.
Disclaimer: my opinion only...no insider info in this one, sorry.

It's going to be big.
It's going to be impressive.
It's going to be historic.

Yup. It's where my title over at the BattleTech forums came from. "LBI Shareholder"

What?
No one looking forward to the "Help! Possession mages taking over all my battlemechs!" Threads??
;D

Rigger 4 becomes canon? Woohoo, Ares Warhammer! :)

Well, just saw these pop up on DTRPG:
Shadowrun Legends: Choose Your Enemies Carefully (Secrets of Power, Vol. 2) (http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/176257/Shadowrun-Legends-Choose-Your-Enemies-Carefully-Secrets-of-Power-Vol-2?src=slider_view)
Shadowrun Legends: Find Your Own Truth (Secrets of Power, Vol. 3) (http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/176259/Shadowrun-Legends-Find-Your-Own-Truth-Secrets-of-Power-Vol-3?src=slider_view)
Suspect we'll see an announcement about "Shadowrun Legends" shortly :)
-
How's that mash up with Battletech though? And am I reading that these are novels right?
-
Just got a DriveThru email about changes to Double Blind, Wolf Pack and Wolves on the Border. Guessing a re release of classic Battletech and Shadowrun novels.

It's not a "mash up"...it's a new (well, old) range of products available for each of the lines. Still haven't seen the formal announcement yet, but it looks like they've finally secured the rights to re-release all(?) of the fiction originally released under the FASA banner.
-
There we go: http://catalystgamelabs.tumblr.com/post/140304021991/legends-fiction-returns

Oooh. If we're getting a return of the FASA lore, is there a chance that we may see more (veiled) ED references?

+1 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Or not so veiled. I know, I know The current FASA is not really interested in tying that knot back together (neither, IMO, is CGL) but the 5th world needs its 3rd world and I want to run an Obsidiaman street sam up against some Troll corp muscle.
-
I hope you mean 4th and 6th world respectively, right?

Who wouldn't want to get caught between a Rock and a Hard Case? :P

Late night with lots of paint fumes. Yes, I did. But you would need the 3rd and 5th as well

You're welcome for the setup. ;D

Wait, what? On Steam? When did they start selling pdfs that weren't directly connected to a video game? ???

No idea!
But I did a search for shadowrun on steam. It gave me all the games thst came out, PLUS the option for the 5e CRB pdf.

It's because of shadowrun chronicles: boston lockdown, you can get that PDF on steam too.
