A new Shadowrun Mission, SRM 04-07: Burn has been released (Battleshop, DriveThruRPG), plunging runners back into the chaos of the Ork Underground. Here are the full details:

The Heat of Friction

If constant friction makes things hot, then the Ork Underground is ready to blaze. Proposition 23, known to some as “Project Freedom,” is coming closer to a vote, and it could make the Ork Underground a full district of the city of Seattle. People on both sides are willing to do just about anything to make the vote go their way, and they’re demonstrating that willingness with blades, bullets, explosives, and more. This has become more than a fight for votes—it’s a struggle for survival.

SRM 04-07: Burn is the latest in the Shadowrun Missions series looking at events in the Underground and their impact on the rest of the city. Runners will be thrown into the chaos with the chance to bring some perpetrators of recent violence to justice. If they survive, they may also learn about the deeper conspiracies behind the violence that is shaking the Underground.

SRM 04-07: Burn can be played as part of the ongoing series of Missions or as a standalone adventure. It’s for use with Shadowrun, Twentieth Anniversary Edition.

If you’ve just had a run blow up in your face–or might have one go south in the future–we’ve got the book for you! The newest Shadowrun PDF-only product, Safehouses, is out now (Battleshop, DriveThruRPG), providing all sorts of information on places to hideout when the pressure’s rising. Here are all the details:

Hiding from the Heat

If it hasn’t happened to you yet, it will. A run will go south. People will be looking for you. Their eyes will be everywhere—your home, your friends’ houses, the places you hang out, even the spots where you buy your soykaf. They’re looking for you, waiting for you, and when they find you, they’re not going to talk. It’ll be a single shot, or a flash of sharp steel, and you’ll be done.

To avoid this, you need to lay low. You need a place where no one will look for you, and where you’ll have enough of life’s basics to get you by. Don’t know where to find such a place? You’re in luck, chummer—we’ve got the guide for you. Whether your acquiring and stocking your own bolt hole or engaging professional safehouse managers, we’ve got the info you need to live to fight another day.

Safehouses is a supplement for Shadowrun, Twentieth Anniversary Edition that provides both flavor text and rules to help runners acquire or find the hideouts they need to stay out of harm’s way. It includes sample safehouses, equipment suggestions for the well-stocked hideaway, and safehouse creation rules that work with the Advanced Lifestyles rules from Runner’s Companion. Get Safehouses, stay safe, and be ready to charge back into the shadows once the trouble you’re in has blown over.
