u/-ParlainthTownie-

I was just watching Freejack which is a favorite cyberpunk movie of mine. So well done. Not many people know about it. Maybe it's better known in the Shadowrun community. What a great cast and concept. Rene Russo, Mick Jagger, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Hopkins, Frankie Faison. Amanda Plummer what a gangster she is. You can tell the writers of the film opened a few Shadowrun books. Grand Bush is definitely a Street Samurai.

And what a coincidence with one of our recent threads concerning immortality in the Shadowrun world. Does anyone else have any favorite cyberpunk movies that they know of? I'd like to know about ones I haven't heard of before. Johnny Mnemonic, Blade Runner come easily to mind, Escape from New York. Bright was a bit on the nose. Although I guess so is Shadowrun at times. Does anyone else have any cyberpunk movies or TV shows that they like?

I like collecting the ephemera of a game. Long lost fanzines or bonus material and pamphlets. There are a few things out there for WFRP that I would like to get. I seem to have missed the Enemy Within Developer Diary #22 and #23. The early Warpstone magazine, issues 1-8, are certainly rare.

There are The Thousand Thrones Expansions. Parts One and Two are wonderful. I have heard there are fragments of Parts 3,4 and 5 out there. And then there is the prequal: The Maiden Voyage of the Gilded Drake which was 99% complete but never really published. I see hints that there is a digital copy that exists.

Does anyone know of any other rare 3rd party ephemera or creations out there? Or know how I can get the above supplements I have mentioned? Some are digital. Some are physical.

These things seem to be getting old and forgotten. Is anyone collecting or preserving them?

I remember hearing about a Fanzine once called The Fettered Files. Saw an issue on eBay once. Does anyone know how I can get it?

Another fluff question about magic. Would the Magic of Lizardmen be Winds magic, or their own brand, and/or Ancient high technology that still works?

The lay lines they use, are they ancient infrastructure or augmentation of the winds made by building temples. Are their ancient cables linking things or did they come up with Wifi?

What is under the stone of their temples?

I have heard about wormhole portals, and orbital space lasers that can still be called upon. It must still behave like chaotic magic since it is based on math and technology but that technology is a bit glitchy after thousands of years of sitting in a rainforest. Sources?

I have always wanted a more clear and succinct explanation of the winds of magic. I understand that the winds are not cut a dry. That messiness and irregularity and overlapping spheres of influence are the essence of Warhammer. And it does make things more beautiful and living. Nothing is clear cut and simple. However I need a reference since I get confused by the names and colors and titles. So I came up with the following chart. Part of it is an AI answer. I have annotated it with the titles. I would like RPG elements as well as in-game powers. I understand that Alchemy experimentation and the philosophy of purity do not translate well to dice but they do a lot for role playing.

The Chart: I would like edits and ideas from the community on how to make it better. ADDENDED AND UPDATED based on below suggestions and more research.
