We’ve posted our Year in Review article on FanProGames.com — if you’re interested in the state of Shadowrun, our other game lines, and FanPro as a whole, check it out!

The first Shadowrun Missions adventure of 2007 — Rising Sin is now available for free download!

Who said you should never mix business with pleasure? After dealing with a timeless love story, the runners hit a casino and brothel to steal a file. So, get ready to indulge in a little high-stakes gambling and spend some time in the tender care of the “employees.” Just don’t forget it’s a job!

Also, responses to SRM02-05 Through a Rose Colored Display Link are now closed, and the official results are available.

Shadowrun, Fourth Edition [FPR26000] is temporarily out of stock. A reprint — the fourth printing — is underway, and we expect to have it back in stock by January, but we don’t have an exact shipping date yet. As soon as we know, we’ll let you know.

For those awaiting an updated copy of the eBook version of SR4, it will also be made available in January.

We’ve had a few requests for a more printer-friendly version of the SR4 FAQ, so I’ve whipped up a quick-and-dirty version without the web page navigation elements. It’s not extra-pretty, and the code is quick and dirty, but it’s what you asked for: http://shadowrunrpg.com/resources/faq_print.shtml

FanPro LLC Launches FanPro Direct Online Store

We’re pleased to announce that our new online store — www.fanprodirect.com — is now up and operational. Fans who don’t have a friendly local game store in their area or who just want to get it straight from the source can now order Shadowrun, Classic BattleTech and The Dark Eye books (and in the future Degenesis and Perry Rhodan too) directly from us.

FanPro Direct is also the only site where Classic BattleTech fans can directly order their own copy of the Total Warfare Limited Edition online! This print run of leather-bound, foil-stamped, and individually-numbered books was limited to 1000 copies, so get yours now!

The site’s still a little rough in some areas, so please bear with us. For example, we don’t have PDF sales enabled yet, but they’ll be coming in the future.

FanPro Direct’s stock also includes miniatures from Iron Wind Metals and Ral Partha UK, and we will continue to expand this stock to incorporate other items relating to our game lines.
