Hello.

I have the core books in various printings and I'm starting a new game with Missions and wanted to know if there was a list of the most current printings of the core books. SR4A, Arsenal and so forth. Just not finding all the info with searches.

I just checked the listing on the SR4 website, and it looks to me like all the books shown there reflect the current printings.  I believe that one exception is the Runner's Companion which is in the process of being re-printed (revceived an updated PDF last month), though not sure when it will actually hit shelves.

Regards,

AJC

Thanks, I'll go with "If it has a new cover, use that one". Just didn't know if the new covers reflect older printings, like I know Street Magic would be Second Corrected printing, just wondering what current printings the books were at so I would know how outdated I am.

Is Street Magic getting a sexy new cover like the others?  I thought it would've been on the reprinting block before Runner's Companion.

It did get a reprint and a new cover already, it just got redone with a different color instead of new artwork.  The newer printings have teh Yellow/Orange background, while earlier ones have a Blue background.

Well, I've got Arsenal [Second Printing], Augmentation [Third Printing], Runner's Companion [Second Printing], Street Magic [Second Printing, Corrected], & Unwired [Third Printing, Corrected].

I've read that the third printing of Street Magic reverted to the pre-errata first printing text, so I haven't touched it.

yeah, unfortunately the 3rd printing of Street Magic does not have the 2nd printing errata in it :(

So the Street Magic currently for sale has the 20A page number listings and errata in it?  Good to know, I'll buy the book tomorrow when I'm down at the game store.

That's unfortunate. Guess I'll just stick to my Blue cover one, unless there's a 4th printing with a cover change and the errata in the works.
Look past the lies, and all the scary stuff that remains is the truth.

Dang. I have Unwired First Print, Second Print and now there is a third? I gotta get up to date.
