Finding bootleg copies with a fan translation at cons of many of these was the pinnacle of success.and then later finding your own VHS copy was even better. When I started running Cyberpunk I was aware that it held some BGC influence (Bubble Gum Crisis, an anime, for those who don't know), but at least in my neck of the woods it was all about Akira, appleseed, Black Magic M-66 and Potlabor eventually. From website: Bubblegum Crisis: MegaTokyo 2033 - The Roleplaying Game: Adventures in the AnimeWorld of Berserk Boomers and Hi-Tech Heroes Paperback Its.I ran CP 2013 briefly and then migrated to CP 2020 which I played semi-regularly right up until around 1994ish, and the emergent play concept holds well. They would like 2400 for the rights to include it in the set that's basically. I got in touch with the good folks at R Talsorian Games, and it turns out that they have their original source materials and can produce the BGC RPG and the two supplements (Before and After and AD Police) in PDF form.

As a young guy in college this game was amazing, an eye opener that you could run an RPG with such weird energy and pace and feel. I forget now, but I think his later rulebook (Cybergeneration and then CP 2030, the Barbie Doll edition) still riffed off of the alt-history (but correct me if I'm wrong).Second, I observed two things, and this lends well with the topic of this thread: first was that in reading the game I found Pondsmith's (and all the authors) writing was energetic and vivid in creating the setting and feel of their universe. So it had stuff that was already looking funny just 2-3 years after publication, and an alt-history that still had a Soviet Union. I think he wanted the game to be as humanly close to the present as possible while still giving it thirty years to affect cultural change as a result of the CP technology.

Then I designed games that revolved around what I could discern from the book, and what I tended to create involved, at least at first, lots of corporate intrigue, betrayal, and the common solo or fixer trying to stick it to the man while making his way in life. Ice's Cyberpunk game felt very flat to everyone I knew, for example, while Shadowrun was regarded as that Cyberpunk game that people who HAD to play elves no matter what game it was would go and play.So I took the game's setting and ditched the history, then stuck everything pretty much as presented in 2089 instead. It was a sharp contrast to almost everything else on the market except perhaps the other Cyberpunk-themed RPGs popping out, and they all looked like pale imitations, if only because they couldn't figure out that extra special something that CP 2020 offered in its style, writing and presentation. CP 2020 was also a major alternative to those who did not want to play AD&D anymore, or needed a much-deserved break. I ran games regularly for my cohorts in our group, and had two separate campaigns with two groups going at one point.

No one was playing a rocker or a journalist type looking to enact social change, but everyone was playing a solo, fixer or netrunner looking for the big score, that one hit against The Man in the form of CP's myriad corporate villains which could land them either retirement or enough firepower to stand up against a small army. Players loved this, and it was something everyone could agree on. The End.Throughout all of my CP 2020 gaming days I learned the following from my players: the game was deadly, but it offered lots of tools for overcoming that and becoming very deadly instead. Their last mission was investigating a crashed mystery vessel on Titan, and discovering it was full of what were basically Warhammer 40K gene stealers. It was fun, but the very last Cyberpunk game I ran in the 90's was about a gang of dragoons (basically massive guyver-like cyborgs) who patrolled the inner and outer-rim colonies of a far-flung 2090's CP which had expanded into colonizing the solar system. Every campaign ended with a group of mercs looking like a small army either blowing up an Arasaka scyscraper or being blown up.The supplements didn't help this trend, either, with lots of heavy armor and eventually dragoons and other extremely tough vehicles.
