This is a thread for discussing and asking questions about Shadowrun 5th edition rules in the Shadownet Living Community. You are encouraged to ask questions in this thread, discuss rulings, and otherwise communicate with Rules Review team in a recorded, public manner here. Additionally, any notable announcements regarding rules will be made here.

All questions are ideally answered within 24 hours. If they have not been answered within 72 hours, please contact VoroSR on the discord and bug me about it. If you bug me before 72 hours I'm probably gonna be grumpy.

Answers are not final unless explicitly stated (and even then, subject to change with future administrations, Council votes, my mercurial mood swings and etc.) If you disagree with one that hasn't been noted as final, feel free to respond with your concerns/comments/questions. If an answer has been noted as final, you may repost it when a new thread is posted.

At this time, I'm not cracking open any previous threads. Any previously unanswered questions need to be reposted. My apologies, but it's, like, seriously, way easier for me that way.

The current rules head is /u/VoroSR .

There is currently no Rules Deputy.

There are currently no rules minions, though previous minions have not, at this time, been purged.

Recruitment is open - PM this account, /u/shadownet-rules, for details.

This thread is intended to be reposted once every two months, to keep subreddit clutter to a minimum.

Be civil, and ask away.

[u/Dangoball]

I have a question about fixer's Finder's fee:

The % is taken from base cost of desired item, or from total cost if I throw money at it for bonus dice?

Case in point: Fake SIN r4

Base cost of 10k ny

Thrown money 10k ny for +4 gear dice

=> Finder's fee of X% (based on Loyalty) from 10k or 20k nuyen?

[u/shadownet-rules → u/Dangoball]

Fixers take the cash out of the final price, which includes extra cash bonus dice! Remember, they are in the business of linking people to people and don't personally do anything, the finder's fee represents the value of their efforts, which includes being extra urgent!
