Here's the full text of the FASA errata sheet for SRII, as downloaded
from the RPGAMES forum on CompuServe.  Now, if only my local gaming
shop (The GuardTower) would get the dang thing in...

Oh, while we're at it, could someone please either re-post or email me
a copy of the ShadowTech errata?  Thanks!

SHADOWRUN II ERRATA
Hey, it's better than a third edition...
	-The Folks at FASA

Sometimes, no matter what you do, errors creep in. What follows is the 
official errata for Shadowrun, Second Edition. Most of these aren't as
much errors as clarifications or reconsiderations of some rules after
the book went to the printers. The relevant rules sections will be
corrected in future printings. Enjoy.

VEHICLES AND WEAPON DAMAGE

An important point was inadequatly made in the rules. On page 108 it
speaks about comparing the Power of an attacking weapon against the
Vehicle Armor Rating. It states that if the Power of the weapon does
not exceed the Vehicle Armor Rating the attack will do no damage.
This is true, except that when using Burst or Autofire (p.92) the
comparison should be made _before_ the Damage Code is increased to
account for the multiple rounds in the burst. So, a weapon with a base
Damage Code of say 5M will not penetrate vehicular armor with a
rating of 6 or higher, even if a burst is fired (adjusted Damage Code
8S). Note also that the Damage Code modifier for a Called Shot should
be applied before the comparison.

BARRIERS AND WEAPON DAMAGE

The references above to the Damage Code and Barrier Ratings hold for
attacks against normal Barriers as well (p.98).

FULL-AUTO SHOTGUNS

Shotguns capable of Full-Autofire mode (FA) should use the Heavy 
Weapon Recoil rules (p.89) and recieve a Recoil Modifier of +2 per
round, not the standard +1 per round.

SPELLS

Change the Drain Code of Mind Probe to [(F/2)+2]D.
