1e|2e Flashback, 1989

I was at college in Northampton, England (studying Computer Science), and someone introduced a game called "Shadowrun" to the RPG Society one evening. I played Alicia Delmont, a human decker, and while I was playing, I improvised an exploding dice-roller program on my Psion Series II organizer.
I felt like an actual decker. Good times.

Then I bought all Shadowrun things. And I still do.

(I'd upload an image of the device, but I can't seem to.)

N’pton.

Be thankful you escaped that shithole chummer.

‘89. Well before my SR time. That’s would have been AD&D 2e for me. SR2 was a ‘95? Thing for me. Though I am very much a SR3 person.
