There is one that is ONLY built for Shadowrun and nothing else, which I find hilarious and so appropriate.
It's a pretty slick setup.

Think it's free to use.  Maybe you guys can set a game up and have some fun during Covid.

That's pretty cool. Hadn't heard of it.
But it is pretty much what I was talking about, a tool that helps you organize and just run stuff faster than trying to get a big old block of assorted paper sheets in some order and drawing initiative phases on post-its

One of my local FLGS seems to have reopened and I saw a copy of Shadowrun Anarchy on the shelf.  For those who have played how is it?  It's been mentioned a few times and I know it is more storygamey (not an issue for me) but I do want to know what the crunch is like.  A slimmed down version of SR would be cool (instead of just using Dresden Files Fate or something else - Rifts/FFG Star Wars).

I've heard it's cool as it retains some traits of SR (like dice pools) in a streamlined format. But it's apparently half-baked in that a lot of things are missing (there is no Nuyen, for eg., payment for runs is done in Karma.. ouch). So people usually play it heavily house-ruled. There's even a site with lots of tweaks and resources that some players say is mandatory, called "Surprise Threat":

I already play a light version of Shadowrun that runs fine for us, so I'm passing Anarchy for now. But if a 2nd edition comes out fixing current issues, Im totally getting it.

Thanks for the link!  I'm more likely to play the others since I own them all already or stick with 3e but I'm curious enough to read that site.
