I have prior experience as a player in Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition, and I've been intrigued by the game Cyberpunk RED for a while. Since I suggested it, I have taken on the role of being the game master.

With that in mind, I'm looking for suggestions on good one-shot adventures that can accommodate a group of 5 players. Three of them have no experience with Red, while the other two have played a few sessions.

Additionally, as a first-time game master for RED, I'm seeking online resources to assist me. I already have the rulebook and plan to read through it, but I'm also interested in finding helpful YouTube videos that offer advice on transitioning to a new system and how to prepare for the various abilities and actions that my players can undertake.

Depends on your setup, but there are some pretty nice FragMaps available for free as a Foundry module: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/fragmaps-free

The official companion app isn't too bad: https://cyberpunkred.com/#/ Easy way to generate characters and mooks. I believe the paid mobile version has some functionality for random encounters and some lore stuff.

Make sure to check out the 'DLC' available on the main website: https://rtalsoriangames.com/downloads/

There are some screamsheets in there that might help frame a one-shot or your first game. There's also a few one-shots in the main book.

If you're looking to establish something longer, the Tales From the Red book has a lot of dope multi-session missions in it.

Highly suggest JonJonTheWise on youtube for content and rules discussion.

Can dump more, so if you have any questions, hit me up. :D
