INTRODUCTION
So you want to run Cyberpunk tabletop in 2077 but you have no clue as to how. I get it,
the video game is cool and feels a lot more traditional cyberpunk than the
quasi-apocalyptic setting that is RED. Lucky for you, RED’s system can be largely adapted
for play in 2077 with a few changes.
CYBERWARE
In addition to the Cyberware in Cyberpunk RED, some of the Cyberware from 2077 is
adapted below.

▶ Neuralware [Foundational Cyberware: Neural Link]

WEAPONS
The weapon system of Red is not enough to simulate the weapon variety of 2077. Under
the 2077 system, all Ranged Weapons are divided into three categories: Power, Tech, and
Smart. Melee weapons in 2077 are the same as in Red.

▶ Power Weapons ◀
Power Weapons are similar to non-exotic Ranged Weapons in Red, with one exception. If
you have a Ballistic Coprocessor, you can ricochet your shots with a -4, bouncing it off of
Cover or a similar solid object. Targeting Scope Cyberware adds +1 to this Check. If you
do this with an Aimed Shot, you do not take the -4 penalty, just the usual -8. The range
DV used for ricochet shots is the distance from you (the shooter) to your target in a
straight line. You cannot ricochet shots with a Shotgun Shell. All ranged weapons except
Grenade Launchers and Rocket Launchers can be Power Weapons. Some Power
Weapons are listed below. Feel free to make your own.

▶ Tech Weapons ◀
Tech Weapons are the natural evolution of railguns into more compact and diverse
packages. Tech weapons are only available as Pistols, SMGs, Heavy SMGs, Shotguns, and
Sniper Rifles. Tech Weapons are Excellent Quality weapons, giving you +1 to Ranged
Attack Checks with them. Tech Weapons can only fire Basic and Armor-Piercing
Ammunition.

Tech Weapons come with a scope that allows you to see targets through Thin Cover.
Before firing a Tech Weapon you can charge it as part of the Attack Action. Doing so
reduces ROF to 1 and causes damage dealt by the weapon to ignore the target's armor
entirely if it is lower than SP7. Armor with SP7 or higher is interacted with as normal. In
addition, if the target is behind Thin Cover and damage from the Tech Weapon is
sufficient to destroy the Thin Cover, the target takes full damage. This property can be
used with Single Shot, Aimed Shot, Burst Fire, or Autofire. Some Tech Weapons are listed
below. Feel free to make your own.

target takes full damage. Additionally, all railguns can make Aimed Shots.

▶ Smart Weapons ◀
Smart Weapons are Excellent Quality weapons with an integrated Smartgun Link. Smart
weapons are only available as Pistols, SMGs, Heavy SMGs, Shotguns, Assault Rifles,
Sniper Rifles, Crossbows, and Rocket Launchers. Smart Weapons can only fire Basic and
Smart Ammunition. A Smart Weapon must be connected to you with Interface Plugs or
a Subdermal Grip to operate. Ranged Attacks made with a Smart Weapon add a +2 to
your Check (+1 from Excellent Quality and +1 from Smartgun Link). Some Smart
Weapons are listed below. Feel free to make your own.

▶ Alt. Fire Modes & Special Features ◀

▶ Burst Fire
Burst Fire is a new Alt. Fire Mode that some weapons have. Making a Burst Fire attack
costs an Action and 3 bullets. If you don't have 3 bullets, you cannot use Burst Fire. To
attempt Burst Fire, you must beat the appropriate Autofire Range DV using the Autofire
Skill. Targets with REF 8 or higher can attempt to dodge your Burst Fire. If you hit, you
deal the damage listed in the weapon’s description. Burst Fire is always 1 ROF and cannot
be used to make an Aimed Shot.

▶ Double-Barrel
Double-Barrel shotguns have an ammunition capacity of 2. They are incompatible with
magazine weapon attachments. While the gun has 2 Shells loaded you can shoot both
Shells together, increasing the damage of the attack to 4d6. It takes 1 Action to reload
both barrels.

▶ Weapon Quality ◀
Non-exotic Power Weapons can come in Poor, Standard, or Excellent Quality. Non-exotic
Tech and Smart Weapons are all Excellent Quality by default. Exotic Weapons will state
what Quality they are.

▶ Weapon Attachments ◀
All non-exotic Power, Tech, and Smart Weapons come with 3 Attachment Slots. Exotic
Weapons of any type don’t have an Attachment Slot unless upgraded by a Tech.

▶ Bipod
Cost: 50eb (Costly) • Eligible: All Non-Exotic Two-Handed Ranged Weapons.
A retractable two-legged stand that eliminates the weapon's weight on the user’s arms.
As an Action, the Bipod can be deployed and rested on a horizontal surface. Doing so
means the weapon is considered mounted until moved. Moving retracts the Bipod
automatically.

▶ Holographic Sight
Cost: 500eb (Expensive) • Eligible: All Non-Exotic Ranged Weapons.
A 1.5x magnifying sight with a holographic reticle. Perfect for mid-range combat but isn’t
good at either close or long distance. When attacking a target that is between
13-50m/yds away using a weapon's Single Shot, Aimed Shot, or Burst Fire, you can add a
+1 to your Check.
▶ Laser Sight
Cost: 500eb (Expensive) • Eligible: All Non-Exotic Ranged Weapons.
A precision laser dot that increases your accuracy at short range, but fades away over
longer distances. When attacking a target no more than 12m/yds away using a weapon's
Single Shot, Aimed Shot, or Burst Fire, you can add a +1 to your Check.

▶ Smart Scope
Cost: 500eb (Expensive) • Eligible: All Non-Exotic Ranged Weapons.
Contains two Option Slots for Cybereye options. You can use the weapon to gain access
to the benefits of these options. All options count as if they were paired, and it costs the
same as installing the option once in a Cybereye. Requires 2 Attachment Slots.

▶ Ammunition ◀
▶ Smart Ammunition 2.0
Cost: 100eb (Premium) • Ammo Types Available: All except Grenades.
The development of Smart Weapons also made Smart Ammunition better and cheaper.
The improved version can be used to make Aimed Shots, Burst Fire, or Autofire.
Targeting Scope Cyberware is required to make use of Smart Ammunition 2.0. When
fired by a User without Targeting Scope Cyberware, the ammunition won't fire even when
the trigger is pulled, as a safety feature. Whenever you miss a shot by 4 or less, your
missed shot immediately has a second chance to hit your target. This second chance to
hit is made by rolling again to hit the same shot DV on the range table which you missed,
except that you add 14 to the d10 instead of anything you would typically add to the
Check, with the only exception being LUCK. A target that can dodge bullets can choose to
dodge this ranged attack as normal. Can only be fired by Smart Weapons.

▶ Exotic Weapons ◀

▶ Arasaka HJSH-18 Masamune


Cost: 5,000eb (Luxury)
An Excellent Quality Exotic Power Assault Rifle with a 24-shot capacity. It is incapable of
Autofire or Suppressive Fire. Instead, the weapon has the Alt. Fire Mode of Burst Fire
(6d6).

A Poor Quality Exotic Power Shotgun with a 5-shot capacity. Whenever you Attack with
this weapon and roll a Critical Success or Critical Injury, the target(s) are also knocked
Prone. Despite being an Exotic Weapon, it can fire Non-Basic Ammunition. Firing this
weapon without falling Prone requires BODY 10 or higher unless it is mounted.
▶ Budget Arms Slaught-O-Matic
Cost: 20eb (Everyday)
A Poor Quality Exotic Heavy or Very Heavy Power Pistol. Made using cheap, colorful
polymers and 3D printing, these guns can be commonly found in Vendits. The weapon
comes loaded with 36 rounds of Basic Ammunition. It cannot be reloaded, repaired,
upgraded, or modified in any way. Once all the ammunition has been expended, the gun
is Destroyed Beyond Repair.

▶ Budget Arms Cut-O-Matic


Cost: 500eb (Expensive)
This weapon is the missing link between machetes and chainsaws, and it is brutally
effective. The Cut-O-Matic is a Poor Quality One-Handed Exotic Heavy Melee Weapon. As
an Action, it can be revved up. Once revved, it will remain so until stowed or revved down
as an Action. While revved, the Cut-O-Matic is a Poor Quality One-Handed Exotic Very
Heavy Melee Weapon that ablates armor by 2 SP per hit, if it does damage through
armor.

▶ Electric Heavy Baton


Cost: 500eb (Expensive)
An Exotic One-Handed Heavy Melee Weapon. If the damage dealt by it would reduce a
target to under 1 HP, they are instead Unconscious at 1 HP. Damage dealt by this weapon
cannot cause a Critical Injury and doesn't ablate armor.

▶ Malorian Arms 3516


Cost: 10,000eb (Super Luxury)
The 2077 version of this iconic weapon is an Excellent Quality Exotic Very Heavy Power
Pistol that deals 5d6 damage. It comes permanently installed with the Smartgun Link
weapon attachment, which must be connected via Interface Plugs or a Subdermal Grip to
operate the weapon. In addition to Basic Ammunition, the weapon can fire its own unique
Armor-Piercing Incendiary Ammunition which ablates armor by 2, when it deals damage
to HP, and ignites the target Mild On Fire. Multiple instances of this fire cannot stack. This
ammunition costs 100eb (Premium) for 10 rounds and can only be fired by this weapon.

▶ Malorian Arms Overture


Cost: 1,000eb (V. Expensive)
An Exotic Very Heavy Power Pistol with a 6-shot capacity. The weapon is incompatible
with magazine weapon attachments. It deals 5d6 damage with a single shot. If fired by a
user with less than BODY 10 or a cyberarm, the weapon jams after each shot. Unjamming
the weapon requires an Action to reverse the malfunction before it can be used again.
▶ Midnight Arms SOR-22
Cost: 5,000eb (Luxury)
An Exotic Power Assault Rifle with a 12-shot capacity. It is incapable of Autofire,
Suppressive Fire, and Aimed Shots. The weapon is fired with the Heavy Weapons Skill
instead of the Shoulder Arms Skill. It deals 6d6 damage with Single Shot. Reloading this
weapon requires using two Actions, and thus can only be done over the course of two
Turns. Firing this weapon requires BODY 11 or higher unless it's mounted.

▶ Militech M-179 Achilles


Cost: 7,500eb (Luxury)
An Excellent Quality Exotic Tech Assault Rifle with a 9-shot capacity. It is incapable of

of the Shoulder Arms Skill. In addition to the features of a Tech Weapon, charged attacks
made by the M-179 ignore half the target's armor if it is between SP7 and SP11. Despite
being an Exotic Weapon, it can also fire Armor-Piercing Ammunition. Reloading this
weapon requires using two Actions, and thus can only be done over the course of two
Turns.

▶ Militech Mk.31 HMG


Cost: 5,000eb (Luxury)
An Excellent Quality Exotic Power LMG that consumes 20 bullets per Autofire. When you
hit a target with an Autofire Attack using this weapon, do not roll 2d6 for damage.
Instead, roll 4d6 plus a number of d6 equal to the amount by which you beat the DV to
hit your target, up to a maximum of 4 (8d6 damage). Reloading this weapon requires
using two Actions, and thus can only be done over the course of two Turns. Firing this
weapon requires BODY 11 or higher unless it is mounted.

▶ Techtronika SPT32 Grad


Cost: 10,000eb (Super Luxury)
This .50 caliber anti-material rifle is an Excellent Quality Exotic Power Sniper Rifle that
deals 6d6 damage. It comes permanently installed with the Bipod and Sniping Scope
weapon attachments. Despite being an Exotic Weapon, it can fire Non-Basic Ammunition.
Firing this weapon requires BODY 11 or higher unless it's mounted. As an Action, its bipod
can be deployed and rested on a surface. Doing so means the weapon is considered
mounted until moved. Moving retracts the bipod automatically.

▶ Techtronika VST-37 Pozhar


Cost: 5,000eb (Luxury)
An Exotic Power Shotgun with a 12-shot capacity. Shotgun Shells fired by this weapon
deal 4d6 damage, instead of 3d6. When firing Slugs, roll 6d6 and take the highest 5d6
for damage. Despite being an Exotic Weapon, it can fire Non-Basic Ammunition. Firing
this weapon without suffering the Broken Arm Critical Injury requires BODY 10 or higher
unless it is mounted.

Cost: 2,000eb (V. Expensive)
An Excellent Quality Exotic Power Assault Rifle with a 20-shot capacity and an integrated
Laser Sight weapon attachment. It is incapable of Autofire or Suppressive Fire. The

costs the same as typical Armor-Piercing Ammunition does, and can only be fired by this
weapon.

▶ Ultra Hammer
Cost: 5,000eb (Luxury)
The iconic weapon of Sasquatch, leader of the Animals gang. It is a Two-Handed Exotic
Very Heavy Melee Weapon. This solid-tungsten sledgehammer deals 5d6 damage. When
you attack with this weapon and score a Critical Success or inflict a Critical Injury, it also
knocks the target Prone. Using this weapon requires BODY 11 or higher. Because of its
weight, this weapon cannot be used One-Handed.

LINEAR FRAMES
▶ Militech Centaur
Cost: 10,000eb (Super Luxury)
The Centaur is a powered exoskeleton that can only be purchased as an External Frame.
Two installations of Interface Plugs are required for operation and it can be taken on and
off with an Action. While connected properly to the frame, the user increases their BODY
to 12. This frame cannot increase the user’s BODY to 13 or higher. This increase in BODY
does not increase the user’s HP or change their Death Save.

The Centaur has 3 Option Slots for installing Cyberleg or Cyberlimb options. All options
count as if they were paired, and it costs the same as installing the option once. While
being piloted, the user gains the benefits of those options. Any options stored in a
Cyberleg or meat leg become inaccessible while piloting a Centaur.

The Centaur cannot be rendered inoperable by EMP effects, like Microwaver pulses, or
non-Black ICE Program Effects. While piloting a Centaur, the user cannot dodge Ranged
Attacks or Explosions, even if they have REF 8 or higher. The user also has access to the
exoskeleton’s integrated Heavy Laser Cannon.

▶ Militech Heavy Laser Cannon: An Excellent Quality Exotic Shotgun that can only fire
using the Shotgun Slug firing mode. The weapon is fired with the Heavy Weapons Skill
instead of the Shoulder Arms Skill. Instead of using ammunition, whenever this weapon
is fired it drains one of 16 charges from its easily rechargeable (1 hour) proprietary
Militech DuraPower battery pack, included with every purchase. Additional DuraPower
battery packs cost 500eb (Expensive). Reloading this weapon requires using two Actions,
and thus can only be done over the course of two Turns. This weapon is permanently
mounted on the Militech Centaur and can only be fired while piloting it.

Whenever you deal damage to a target through their armor using this weapon, you
ablate SP by 2 instead of 1. In addition, you ignite the target Mild On Fire. Multiple
instances of this fire cannot stack.

DRONES
▶ Arasaka Minotaur ◀

Mount Description Data Cost

Arasaka Large-sized, bipedal, heavy combat drone. Equipped 4 MOVE • 18SP • 70HP 20,000eb
Minotaur with the following: (Super
• Militech Mk.31 HMG Perimeter of Defended Area
Luxury)
• Grenade Launcher with Drum Magazine containing 6
DV24 Electronics/Security
grenades.
Tech, 5 min to counter
• Observation Camera with Low Light / Infrared / UV
• Very Heavy Melee Weapon

PERSONAL DRONES
Unlike drones, personal drones don’t require a NET Architecture. Personal drones can be
operated directly using an Agent.
▶ Using Drones ◀

When purchased, a personal drone is linked to an Agent. Voluntarily linking it to a new


Agent requires 5 uninterrupted minutes and both Agents must remain within 6m/yds of
the drone the entire time. Unless mentioned otherwise, personal drones have three
operation modes: Standby, Auto, and Direct Control. Some drones may have additional or
fewer modes. Switching modes does not require an Action.

▶ Standby Mode: In Standby Mode, the drone is powered on but not operating. When in
Standby Mode, the drone cannot move, nor can it make or dodge attacks.

▶ Auto Mode: In Auto Mode, the drone follows within 8m/yds of its linked Agent,
constantly scanning for threats within 50m/yds. Use the drone’s Combat Number as its
Perception Skill Base. If the drone detects a threat to its user, or the user identifies any
number of entities as a threat (no Action needed), it attacks immediately. In combat, the
drone is GM-controlled and prioritizes any threat to its user before all else. At any time,
the user can call for the drone to break off and return using their Agent or a verbal
command, without an Action. Personal drones cannot dodge ranged attacks in this mode.
▶ Direct Control Mode: The drone can also be controlled directly via its linked Agent,
using an Action. When controlled directly, all attacks and defenses are made using the
user’s own skills as if they were firing their weapons in their own hands and dodging with
their own body. Personal drones cannot dodge ranged attacks in this mode.

Personal drones never travel more than 50 m/yds away from their user, no matter their
mode. Each drone has 48 hours of energy before it must charge for an hour in the sun
or at an outlet.

Drone Repair: Any personal drone can be fully repaired in one day, with an Electronics/Security
Tech Check vs. DV17. Repairing a drone restores all HP, SP, and functionality.

▶ Militech MT0D12 “Flathead” ◀

Mount Description Data Cost

Militech A six-legged spider drone, roughly the size of a 6 MOVE • 11SP • 25HP 10,000eb
MT0D12 chihuahua. Capable of combat, recon, and remote Combat Number: 10 (Super
“Flathead” hacking. Equipped with the following: Luxury)
• 4 Option Slots for Cyberleg or Cyberlimb options Roaming Range: 50 m/yds
• Observation Camera with Low Light / Infrared / UV
Cannot be countered
• Weapon Mount

Unlike other drones, the Militech Flathead cannot be Countered using the
Electronics/Security Tech Skill. Any One-Handed Melee or Ranged Weapon without a
BODY requirement can be attached to the Flathead’s only weapon mount over the course
of 1 minute (no Check required). Its Observation Camera can record up to one hour of
footage.
Like a spider, the Flathead can climb any solid surface, even walls, and ceiling, at the cost
of 2m/yds of movement for every m/yd traveled (2 squares for every 1 square). It has 4
Option Slots for installing Cyberleg or Cyberlimb options. All options count as if they
were paired, and it costs the same as installing the option once.

If the user of the Flathead is a Netrunner, the user can use the drone to remotely “Jack In”
to a NET Architecture. The user must be within the Roaming Range of the Flathead and
the drone must be within 2 m/yds of a NET access point. If the Flathead moves further
than 2m/yds from the NET access point, it causes the user to suffer an unsafe Jack Out.

QUICKHACKING
Modified from FreedomsFlame#9166‘s homebrew.

Quickhacking is an evolved form of cyber warfare used by Netrunners in 2077. It is a fast,


aggressive, meatspace-based combat Netrunning that is used to attack Cyberware,
drones, and other Active defenses.

Like classic Netrunning, Quickhacking requires the Netrunner to have Interface Plugs, a
Cyberdeck, and Virtuality. Using a Quickhack requires a NET Action and uses the Interface
Role Ability. Hence, only Netrunners can Quickhack

Quickhacking requires special Programs called Quickhacks, which are a new type of
Non-Black ICE Attacker Program. They can have an ATK value but no DEF or REZ. Like any
other program, Quickhacks need to be Activated as a NET Action before they can be
used. Each Quickhack loaded on your Cyberdeck can only be Activated once per
Meatspace Round. You may install multiple copies of the same Quickhack to counter this
downside. Quickhacks automatically Deactivate after they are Activated. As with standard
Netrunning, you must choose between taking Meat Actions and NET Actions.

Anyone in Line of Sight with a Neural Link or Internal Agent may be targeted by a
Quickhack. Targets behind Cover are not considered to be in Line of Sight. Quickhacking
range is equal to twice the standard range of your Cyberdeck (12m by default, 16m with
Range Upgrade). Resolving a Quickhack uses:

Your TECH + Interface + Quickhack ATK + 1d10


vs
Target’s TECH + Cybertech + 1d10 or Self-ICE DEF + 1d10

Weapons, Rippers, etc.) may also be targeted, even if they don’t
have smart capability. Weapons that have Malfunctioned cannot be
used until it is fixed using a Meat Action (doesn’t require a Check).

▶ Self-ICE ◀

Self-ICE is a specialized cybersecurity firewall that protects your Cyberware against


Quickhacks. A Self-ICE must be installed in a Neural Link as Chipware and thus requires a
Chipware Socket. Self-ICE has a DEF value. Only one Self-ICE may be running in a Neural
Link at a time.
