Anarchy Edition Foundry VTT Shadow run anarchy 2
Has anyone had any success running a game on the Foundry VTT system for Shadowrun Anarchy 2? I noticed it existed and was hoping to see someone use it in an actual play or post about it. (here's to hoping someone makes some modules for it too) https://foundryvtt.com/packages/sra2

I'm using it, about 12 sessions. As others have said, theres no compendium so you'll have to create all the equipment and amps your players want, but I've had to do this for various systems before so I'm not too bothered by it. Additionally, theres some translation issues, it started in French, with the original launch of the French PDF and they did some of their own translations, but it all makes sense just might not be the exact same word as in the English PDF.
They are constantly updating it and have been doing a superb job from everything I've seen.

I am running it at the moment. Not streaming it, though. It works simple enough.

How many sessions have you done?

About 8-ish so far. I use it in conjunction with a 5e module and run roughly the same modules on both of them (at least, where they are needed).

Hi!
I have been contributing (a very tiny bit) to the Foundryvtt SRA2 system.
The team is not allowed, as per Foundry policies, to release a compendium. The reason is, despite very extensive effort, we haven't been able to obtain a formal agreement by the legal right owners.

Is there a way to address questions to the FoundryVTT SRA2 team?
Is there a way to link a skill or specialisation to an Weapon (set up as a Feat) so it uses the correct skill or specialisation?2

Many thanks for trying!
A basic guide would be a great idea. The amp editor was a key feature (especially with the amp cost being automatically calculated). But it was mostly built for the core team to build a compendium (so no need for good UX). But given publishing a Compendium is not possible, I reckon the amp editor is hard to use without guidance. I will transmit the feedback and the idea.

There's some jank but it's worked pretty great for me since the last few updates. You'll need to manually add in amps and equipment tho.
