Hey guys I am about to run a game and I am looking a excel or word doc that has the Metatypes, qualities and equipment.

I am not after full stats, just quick descriptions and page numbers from books. Then I can edit down for items I want available for the start of my campaign.

If no one has one or knows where I can find one to save me having to make one that would be great.

Metatypes and Qualities are listed at the back of Runner's Companion.

There is way, way, way to much equipment in Shadowrun to make a list worthwhile.

I completely forgot that set of tables was there, thanks for that.

And the amount of equipment is huge which and in multiple books which is why I was hoping someone had done it already to save me the job.

One of the booklets in the Runner's Toolkit is of compiled tables from Arsenal, Augmentation, Street Magic, and Unwired (and, of course, the main book).

And, if you have the cash, let me strongly recommend going with Hero Lab. It has compiled, searchable tables sorted by equipment category. Gonna cost some bank to get everything, though, since it's an official, licensed product and not a fan creation.

Of course, there's also Chummer. Chummer is totally free (being a "fan creation"), and has a complete list of gear with page references, but doesn't tell you what anything does since they can't legally reprint that info.

Thanks I will see if I can get chummer to run, thats sort of what I am after, but I was hoping for something printable so I can hand it round the table.


Hero lab is expensive seeing as I have most of the books already, I don't like paying twice for the same thing.

My thoughts exactly. Granted if Hero Lab were the same cost as buying one of the books to get it at full functionality, I'd jump on it.

I can also highly recommend hero lab. Especially for npc creation.

I am thinking I need to edit the first post to say I am skint so stop suggesting hero labs.

If I knew about it before I bought all the books then yepy great but I am skint and jobless after finishing uni so please stop suggesting it!

Right there with ya bro. In fact, I'd go a bit further into wishing people would stop buying it at the current ludicrous pricing to attempt to force them into making the pricing reasonable.

chummer is printable

The only obstacle: the pricing is reasonable.

Let's not make this an argument. The OP says he doesn't have the money for Hero Lab, so (everyone) stop recommending it, (and/or analyzing it's value); end of story.

You are right, we shouldn't make this an argument - so stop saying that I recommended Hero Lab in the post of mine that you quoted when it is plain as day that I did no such thing and wasn't even speaking to the OP.

The post was targeted at everyone, more or less as a "stop bringing it up". The part that was targeted at you (and A4BG) specifically was "let's not make this an argument". Hero Lab's value is very much up to the individual, and no good will come of arguing price. No need to take it personally.
