| Item | Details | |------|----------| | Title | Chromebook 3 (sometimes listed as Chromebook 3 – The Cyber‑Aesthetic Handbook ). | | System | Cyberpunk 2020 – the classic tabletop RPG created by Mike Pondsmith and published by R. Talsorian Games. | | Purpose | A sourcebook that expands the game’s cyber‑aesthetic options: new cyber‑optics, implants, fashion, accessories, gear, and “chrome” (augmented body parts). It also includes narrative tips for running high‑tech, high‑style campaigns. | | Typical Page Count | Roughly 80–100 pages (varies by edition). | | Publication Year | 1992 (original print); later re‑released in PDF format by R. Talsorian. | | ISBN (for print) | 0‑962–42373‑6 (if you need it for library searches). | Quick tip: The name “Chromebook” is a play on “chrome” (the cyber‑enhancements) and “book.” It is not a computer’s operating‑system guide, despite the modern “Chromebook” brand name. 2. What’s Inside? (High‑Level Table of Contents) | Section | Highlights | |---------|------------| | 1. Introduction & Setting | Overview of the aesthetic tone of a cyber‑enhanced world; how chrome affects daily life and the underworld. | | 2. New Cyber‑Implants | Detailed stats for fresh optical upgrades, neural interfaces, limb replacements, and “smart‑skin” patches. | | 3. Gear & Gadgets | Expanded weapon mods, data‑jack accessories, and hidden‑compartment clothing. | | 4. Fashion & Style | Outfit templates, neon‑tattoos, synthetic fabrics, and the social meaning of different looks. | | 5. Game Mechanics | Revised rules for implant installation, maintenance costs, and “chrome‑overload” risk tables. | | 6. Adventure Hooks | Short scenarios that revolve around corporate black‑market deals, street‑style contests, and illegal chrome‑races. | | 7. NPC & Faction Profiles | Sample characters and groups who specialize in chrome trade, from underground “sharps” to corporate R&D labs. | | 8. Appendices | Quick‑reference tables, conversion charts for older editions, and a bibliography of in‑world “tech magazines.” |
These sections give both players and Game Masters (GMs) tools to flesh out the gritty, neon‑drenched world of Night City (or any cyber‑punk setting you prefer). | Platform | Format | Price (USD, approx.) | Notes | |----------|--------|----------------------|-------| | DriveThruRPG | PDF (download) | $4.99 – $7.99 | Official store for R.
