Rigger Black Book (Shadowrun, No. 7108)

Rating:
Summary: Must-need for any rigger
Review: I have seen this Rigger book and must say, it is phenominal. I was suprised to see that Amazon had anything on Shadowrun at all, but this is amazing. Very detailed with great new vehicles and spectacular drawings, a must for anyone who wants more than the average Shadowmobile.

Summary: Much Better than Rigger 2
Review: Ignore rigger 2 and the vehicle rules for SR3, they're garbage. Anyone remember the matrix rules before SR3 and VR2.0, well, Rigger 2 is worse, now it's a everyone sits out while the rigger does a maneuver situation rather than a matrix run. RBB is truly awesome, nice artwork, gives you a feel for the game with the Shadowtalk(from Shadowland), and in general is a must have. If you want riggers in your game, use this book and SR2's rules, ignore the 3rd edition stuff. The combo of the 2 makes for imo the best rigger system out. I seriously hope FASA goes back to this style of writing books soon.

Summary: An absolute necessity for continued game balance.
Review: The Rigger Black Book represents the expansion that makes rigging worth being an archetype. Quite frankly, the rigger is nearly a pointless waste of focus in game terms without this expansion. Each archetype got enough toys and game mechanics to make them practical but until this book, Riggers were glorified cheaffeurs. I can hire one for less than it costs to get rigged!!!! Get this book if you want to really expand your gaming possibilities to include exciting high speed chases and low brow humor.

Summary: Much Better than Rigger 2
Review: The Riggers Black Book, as it sounds, is the complete guide to rigging. The main book for Shadowrun Second Edition is very sketchy, but this book clarifies, and expands on the concepts given in SRII. If your riggers are to have a good chance of survival, the Rigger's Black Book is about their only savior. The book is also a guide to the majority of the vehicular items in the whole game, so all players should try to be familiar with the contents. The eight rating is due to the lack of a Second Edition reprint. The only RBB available currently is going to require some adjusting by gamemasters to fit into the current game mechanics.
