Cyberpunk 2020

Released by R. Talsorian Games inc. in 1990.

This is a revision of Cyberpunk 2013 with a majority of the rules staying the same. The one major revision was the removal of the active defense opposed roll against ranged attacks, while keeping it for melee attacks and net combat as well as use of non-combat skills against other characters, e.g. sneaking past someone or seducing someone. All of these are resolved by rolling one D10 and adding the values of your appropriate Stat and Skill as well as any applicable modifiers and checking it against either a target number or another character's opposed roll. Another change is that while a draw still results in a win for the defending character in opposed skill checks, it now results in a win for the offending character in combat. Damage is usually dealt with nD6, but in some cases with nD10 instead.

There may have been some slight overlap with a few of the supplements at the tail end of 2013, but the rule similarities made them 'usable' until new supplements were made for the 2020 system.

There were two versions of the Cyberpunk 2020 rule book printed; 1st and 2nd printing. The 2nd printing had some rules claification notes (and some new artwork) printed in it. The original text was not altered.
