Title: The UK Today
Post by: BSOD on <07-30-11/1344:01>: Well I decided that some runners I know could do with a little more infomation about the UK in the 2070's
More to the point does anyone either have any ideas, well founded for not, or know where to look for (other than 6th World Almanac) for mention of what's going down this side of the pond.

Post by: Longshot23 on <07-31-11/1309:35>: Personally, i'd start with the London s/b (possibly with the Tir na nOg s/b as a side), move on through the U.K. and TNO sections of Shadows of Europe, and finish with 6WA. It's the progression of information over time that makes the difference IMHO. Plus 6WA filled in or expanded on some of the blanks that the setting write-ups in SR3 main book and SR4/4A core book.

Post by: raggedhalo on <09-07-11/1059:45>: The London Sourcebook always makes me kinda sad; it really glosses over most of the other British cities. Now, you might say that this is fair enough as it's the London sourcebook but for a long time it was the only place to get info on the UK in Shadowrun. Shadows of Europe does a lot to help out in this regard.

Post by: Angelone on <09-07-11/1136:59>: I believe an upcoming book (Conspiracy Theories?) is going to have new info on London.

Post by: Deliverator on <09-07-11/1503:49>: Pendragon as in UTHER Pendragon? Supposed father to King Arthur?
Title: Re: The UK Today
Post by: SirDelta on <09-07-11/1523:52>: Nope. Pendragon was the guy who caused a huge uproar in the UK. If I remember correctly, there's not much detailed info about what went down.

Harlequin wasn't King Arthur, he was Charlemagne. Arthur just stole Excalibur from him.

Title: Re: The UK Today
Post by: Angelone on <09-07-11/2235:36>: Dwarf, Ehran's the Orc.

Edit- Which really makes you wonder about their feelings towards Elves.
