The Caldecott Caper

Description
The lowest form of life in the Sixth World is that of the corporate rent-a-cop. You are paid a paltry wage for the privilege of defending the megacorps' ostentatious wealth from the desperate gangers of the Orkland Sprawl. Enter a world of turmoil, greed, and violence, as you struggle for survival with the help of a few hand-picked allies.

Return to the San Francisco Bay Area in this campaign for Shadowrun: Hong Kong, set between the events of Antumbra Saga and CalFree in Chains. Features include:

  • Story-driven gameplay. Your character’s personal tale will develop as the plot advances.
  • Recruit a small core of talented mercenaries and gain their loyalty. They will pay attention to your words and actions, and won’t always agree with you.
  • Make meaningful choices throughout the course of the campaign. The story is semi-linear, but you’ll find sometimes-surprising consequences to the decisions you make.

Ganbatte kudasai, and enjoy your return to CalFree!

Status

This campaign is complete and running smoothly for most players. If you run across any bugs, please report them to the bug thread so I can squash 'em!

Finally, if you enjoy The Caldecott Caper, please help spread the word! I'm awful at marketing, so I'll greatly appreciate any tweets, posts, or other forms of signal-boosting. Even a simple thumbs up on this page will make the Caper more visible within Steam and help other players discover it. Thank you!

There seems to be a specific square in the southwest of Baghdad By The Bay that you immediately die if you step on it. Not sure if this is intentional. Luckily I'd just saved after knocking Zeilor on his ass.
Great mod so far!

Just realized the first part of your series, the Antumbra Saga, is Dragonfall only. No Hong Kong version?

Thank you for a beautiful expansion.

you're the best. wish some of the other devs brought their expansions forward to the hk engine. this inspired me to get all the expansions for 1 & 2 and try them, too.

Can I endorse this twice? This is so good that I've just finished playing it for the second time (my first time was more than 5 years ago).

:truelove: This alone is a strong reason to buy Shadowrun: HK.

@cirion: Any chance you'd ever make a fourth chapter? Patreon/Kickstarter?

I started this trilogy out of order, with Calfree in Chains. It has been a lot of fun seeing all of the twists in the plot that you cooked up for these adventure stories. I’ve only just saved Persi and about to exact revenge on some corp scum, but when I’m done there, I look forward to starting on the first part of the trilogy. Cheers.

@Dead Owl: Congrats! There aren't a TON of differences, but several things throughout the campaign can change based on prior choices. There's more branching in the third entry.

@Mansku: Glad you liked it! IIRC the game can slow down if you reload a save in the hub and visit the disco. That's an engine-related issue and I don't think I can solve it without removing the disco entirely.

@spaceninja80: Merry Belated Christmas! For as much as I complain, the engine is pretty moddable: HBS released the same tools they used to build their own campaigns, and other models have figured out how to change a lot of stuff. I'm so pleased that this felt professional to you, I spent a lot of time polishing it!

@Gareque: I loved the HBS games, and am delighted to hear that this compared favorably to you!

@Taliensin: Thanks for the note, congrats on a successful run!

@teh_wamburger: I'm glad that you've been digging the trilogy. Keep on running!

@Lan: Aw, I appreciate your words! I love the Shadowrun setting, it's sci-fi but very connected to present concerns.

@hi3r0ph4nt: Glad you found the solution!

@Diamond Encrusted Toaster: Hey, thanks! This was my first time writing a romance, and I'm really glad that you enjoyed it.
