Shadowrun doesn’t get enough love, I’m glad to have this series

[@Akatsukimember6]

Austrian here: one year too late but still I want to congratulate you on your German pronunciation, really not bad for someone who’s not actively learning it. I’m Impressed by your “ch”

[@Clockworkwraith]

Hey I did that thumbnail/Troll Wars art for Catalyst! Good to see chummers digging it.

[@TheMapleTable]

Thanks for your support of the community

[@andrewsamuels8358]

Do you make more Shadowrun / Fantasy / Cyberpunk art? The image from the thumbnail is really cool :salute:

[@crapstirrer]

Trolls are great. They do more damage throwing a light pistol than firing it. At least I did back in 3rd ed.

[@TheMapleTable]

Its super effective

"Congratulations. You bricked the troll's shotgun. He shifts his hands to the barrel and is now wielding it as a club."

[@andrewsamuels8358]

NOBODY is underestimating the 9ft tall demon creature that eats bullets for breakfast, bowels out your chummer by lunch, and folds your dodge scoot into a paperweight! Trolls ROCK and ROLL

[@HandlesAreStupid2024]

Shadowrun was one of my first non D&D games I ran into in the 90s. SNES game + RPG were such mind blowing changes to what a kid thought "RPGs" could be.

[@Takintomori]

Nate, what the hell is that shirt lmao. Fantastic video, we need more shadowrun,

[@TheMapleTable]

Its a vest and I love it :p

[@andrewsamuels8358]

@@TheMapleTable Its on brand for the Shadowrun world!

[@isaacgraff8288]

I absolutely love that cursive became the 'code of the trolls'.

[@Taliesin2]

That pronounciation of Rottweiler Befreiung was not too bad at all. Also there was a not so bad Schwabenstreich among all the tries :D

[@TheMapleTable]

Shotgun approach means one is likely right

[@Peecamarke]

Great video, each race is so fascinating to learn about

[@TheMapleTable]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@SirBabalon]

It's so nice seeing more Shadowrun

[@SirBabalon]

I also really love this format!

[@TheMapleTable]

:D

[@GrafBocula]

Since nobody in the comments seemed to mention i yet, i just wanted to note that "Schwabenstreich" is an outdated german synonym for a foolish endeavour.

[@Silverset_]

I hope you continue with these Shadowrun videos! Great job!!

[@TheMapleTable]

That's the plan!

[@bewitchedadventures4977]

I see these have been done fairly recently. I throw in a vote for more Shadowrun! I played 5 when I was 16-17 years old and am just getting back to considering playing again. Would love some more on the setting, lore, history, etc.

[@Mama.Athena]

Wonderful! I can't wait for you to do a video on my dwarves!

[@keithhinder7042]

And he is back in his gimp suit

[@TheMapleTable]

you keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means :P

[@KermodeBear]

I saw that frame. I was watching.

[@renatomeira4145]

i Freaking love that shirt! More Shadowrun content! You could make a vídeo about World of Future Darkness, and tips on running a wolrd of darkness campaing on a cyberpunk future!

[@TheMapleTable]

There is a surprising amount of crossover

[@allones3078]

Love me some trolls my go to meta-type.

[@TheMapleTable]

They are pretty neat

[@danacoleman4007]

I'm not sure this could be creepier

[@OsirisLocke]

Love the Shadowrun lore vids. Can't decide if I hate or love that vest though.

[@TheMapleTable]

got your attention though

[@wolffang489]

Evo has also gotten a fairly good reputation among minority populations due to their Troll CEO, Spirit controlling shareholder, and overall aggressive pro-meta policy. They're so interested in everything inhuman/transhuman that they have a bit of a reputation for being mad scientists, which still makes them one of the more reputable corporations.

[@Lucifer.s.understudy]

Big Fan. Keep up the great content.

[@viniciuscunhacoelho]

In your opinion, which is the best edition of Shadowrun for someone who wants to play and never played before? (Sorry for my bad english)

[@chainsawsubtlety9828]

"Bigger than MOST NBA players." ?? Which NBA players were 8'2" and 740 lbs?

[@vindicareassassin271]

Can you make dwarves

[@johanfk]

As Shadowrun is mainly US centred what sourcebooks exist with descriptions of Germany?

[@meisterprakti6371]

A lot of them. German has many exclusive books

[@Razamaniac]

Mn that leather attire you wear !!! 😆

[@TheMapleTable]

its not leather but it looks cool I think :P

[@Razamaniac]

@@TheMapleTable it suits you for sure, just don't wear it outside the house 🤣

[@wolffang489]

In the *present* cursive is pretty uncommon. 😂

[@TheMapleTable]

True, it's almost its own language right now

[@KOkami03]

I'll be honest, I've never understood that whole "Trolls have the highest literacy rate" thing. I mean, don't get me wrong, I can totally buy Trolls being the only group fluent in Cursive and having the best penmanship. What I don't get is this: how would you be able to program/use a computer without some ability to type??? Did computer code also get replaced by pictures? Or do I simply not understand the actual meaning of the word "literacy"?

[@meisterprakti6371]

The people who can type are literate. Most people cant code

[@bjorncorvin4568]

Dwarves pls daddy

[@TheMapleTable]

They will be on the list
