We’re looking at what’s inside the Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit every Friday until it debuts at GenCon on August 1st. This Friday, we’re looking at one of the most important details: The table of contents.

When you open up the Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit, you’ll find two booklets inside. One is entitled simply “Rule Book” and the other “World Book”. Both are truth in advertising, as they contain exactly what they say. What does that mean, though? Let’s break them down, chapter by chapter. A lot of the chapter names might seem familiar but we promise, there’s a bunch of new information packed inside.
