One updated repeat, the other all new, for Shadowrun, the fantasy/cyberpunk RPG

Shadowrun Essentials (repeated)

https://bundleofholding.com/presents/2020SR5Essentials
The year is 2081. Magic has returned and creatures of myth and legend walk among us as megacorps bleed the world dry. You're a shadowrunner -- a deniable asset, a corporate pawn -- using bleeding-edge science and magic to make your meat body and mind better-than-flesh. Stay on the edge, and you may survive another run on the mean sprawl streets.

Revived from February 2019, SR5 Essentials is the first of two now in progress featuring the 2013 Fifth Edition of Shadowrun, the cyberpunk-fantasy RPG from Catalyst Game Labs. This Essentials revival once again gathers the complete Shadowrun 5E rulebook and all its key rules supplements. If you're new to Shadowrun, start here. The all-new companion offer, SR5 Lethal Streets, gets runners into new and deeper trouble with more Fifth Edition supplements and sourcebooks.

We provide each ebook complete in .PDF (Portable Document Format). Like all Bundle of Holding titles, these books have NO DRM (Digital Restrictions Management), and our customers are entitled to move them freely among all their devices.

Ten percent of each purchase (after gateway fees) goes to these two Shadowrun offers' pandemic-related charity, Direct Relief. Direct Relief gets protective gear and critical care medications to health workers, with emergency deliveries daily to medical facilities across the US and to regional response agencies across the world.

The total retail value of the titles in this revived offer is US$170. Customers who pay just US$19.95 get all three titles in this offer's Core Collection (retail value $70) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the complete Shadowrun 5E Corebook (Master Index Edition), retail price $20, plus the free 5E Quick-Start Rules and 5E Character Conversion Guide; the player's guide, Run Faster (retail $25); and the cyberware catalog Chrome Flesh (retail $25).

Those who pay more than this offer's threshold (average) price, which is set at $29.95 to start, also get this revival's entire Bonus Collection with four more key 5E supplements worth an additional $100, including the rules expansions for magic (Street Grimoire), the Matrix (Data Trails), and riggers (Rigger 5.0), each retailing for $25. For this revival we're adding the combat expansion Run & Gun, originally presented in the February 2019 SR5 Runs and Guns offer. All previous purchasers of this Essentials offer during its Feb 2019 run also receive Run & Gun automatically on their Wizard's Cabinet download page and in their DriveThruRPG Library.

Lethal Streets (New)

https://bundleofholding.com/presents/LethalStreets

This is one of two offers now in progress featuring the 2013 Fifth Edition of Shadowrun, the cyberpunk-fantasy RPG from Catalyst Game Labs. This SR5 Lethal Streets Bundle is an all-new companion to our newly revived February 2019 Shadowrun 5E Essentials Bundle. If you're new to the game, start there. This Lethal Streets follow-up gets runners into new and deeper trouble with more Fifth Edition rules expansions and setting sourcebooks.

We provide each ebook complete in .PDF (Portable Document Format). Like all Bundle of Holding titles, these books have NO DRM (Digital Restrictions Management), and our customers are entitled to move them freely among all their devices.

Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) goes to these two Shadowrun offers' pandemic-related charity, Direct Relief. Direct Relief gets protective gear and critical care medications to health workers, with emergency deliveries daily to medical facilities across the US and to regional response agencies across the world.

The total retail value of the titles in this offer is US$170. Customers who pay just US$12.95 get all three titles in this offer's Starter Collection (retail value $65) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the Fifth Edition version of No Future (retail price $25), the Neo-Anarchist Streetpedia (a reference guide that works with all editions of Shadowrun, retail $20), and Better Than Bad (retail $20).

Those who pay more than this offer's threshold (average) price, which is set at $24.95 to start, also get this offer's entire Bonus Collection with five more titles worth an additional $105, including the combat expansion Street Lethal (retail $25), the Matrix expansion Kill Code (retail $25), Cutting Aces (about confidence games, retail price $25), Hard Targets (about wetwork, retail $25), and The Assassin's Primer (retail $5).


In 2019 I said "Shadowrun has never been one of my favourite games, I'm not convinced the genres mesh wonderfully, but it's an OK system with a big user base. I think that there have been previous offers for earlier releases, but this is the first for 5th edition, which updates things a lot. I think it's a pretty good deal if you want to give the system a try, or are only familiar with the earlier releases." I really don't see any reason to change that.
