The Matrix Defragged
A supplement for Shadowrun 3rd Edition that streamlines Matrix hacking and cybercombat while retaining concepts such as hosts, nodes, RTGs, killer IC, and system maps. It supports both wired and wireless Matrix settings and incorporates later ideas including AROs, agents, augmented reality, Overwatch, marks, and ultraviolet systems. The rules unify Matrix-enabled devices, simplify security and system design, and give deckers tactical options through passcodes, node marking, specialized agents, and reusable maps. The system is also compatible with Shadowrun's first and second editions.
