The Roaring 70's - Cyberpunk 2020 in 2077

Resource

Hey, hey, everyone. I apologise ahead of time if this isn't the appropriate considering when the homebrew is, but figured what the hell.

Anyways, my history in brief is getting to love the setting with the video game and then diving into the RED ruleset which, after a couple of short campaigns, became annoyed and disillusioned with. So went back to the previous edition and wanted to port that over to the 2077 time period. What I present to you in a google doc is a painstaking merger and adaptation of the time period using Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk RED rules.

Sadly didn't get to test it out nearly as much as I would like, but I did scour a lot of the many discussions about the finnicky rules and gave more concrete elaborations on a few pain points (like Rate of Fire).

Inside the doc, you will find 3 Volumes, an write up of Auxiliary rules, a barebones write up for a 70's Yugoslavia (how it would go in my mind), and a WIP that I haven't bothered with just yet. The three Volumes cover Base rules, additions and ports, as well as cyberware and assorted equipment in the first; RED Netrunning and quickhacks in the second, and the third has rules for Temu ACPA's.

Figured to share it to help other folks play in the time period the video game takes place, but wanting the 2020 ruleset instead of the RED to work with. But also to just share something I worked on with the rest of the community.

I hope you enjoy!
