This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Some of you might remember that SoLA was set to be released for SR3, but got stuck in development hell for years. We, the writers, didn't release the drafts before because Plan B was to release it as a PDF for the Holostreets website (think Battlecorps for Shadowrun). However, Catalyst's Jason Hardy has cancelled this plan, so we're now releasing the drafts as fan material. A complete release of the drafts in a single PDF is in the works. Enjoy!

      Aztlan and Caribbean League, by Jason Levine (Demonseed Elite).[/list]

        French Guiana, by Robert Derie (Ancient History).[/list]

          The
        Panama Pan-Corporate Zone, Bolivia, Caracas, and Crime in Latin America by Jong-Won Kim (JongWK).[/list]

          Peru, by José Barbe and Hugo Medina.[/list]

          Feel free to use them for non-commercial purposes. I will update this post when more drafts become available.

          Sweet.

          And best of all, now when I read the book (PDF) and go

          "you know, Spike, some of the book was balls out awesome, but serious, what was the author thinking when he wrote that awful and trite bit about Caracas?"

          I'll be able to answer myself.

          "Well, Spike, you know that the cool shit was written by some other dude actually. that awful caracas section? Yeah, that was that simpleton, JongWK. Ugh."


          I kid. I haven't read any of it yet.  But I DO talk to myself like that. If I didn't use my own name I'd lose track of who I responding to, and that just gets bad...
          For you the day you found a minor error in a Post by Spike and forced him to admit it, it was the greatest day of your internet life.  For me it was... Tuesday.

          For the curious: Apparently, in person, I sound exactly like the Youtube Character The Nostalgia Critic.   I have no words.

          Thanks. I wish SoLA had had a different fate, but releasing it into the wild for free isn't the worst outcome either.

          I'd forgotten about releasing my Crime section. It's part of a bigger chapter that also includes corporations and surviving in the green hell, but those two were written by other authors.
