[Interest Check] Shadowrun using CovertOps/Barebones Fantasy rules (Weekly, Sat, 7pm EST)

I'm currently running a modern Covert Ops campaign and I like the system, but after a month I haven't gotten much traction attracting new players to the group. &nbsp;I'm assuming that modern settings aren't that interesting to people. &nbsp;I'm thinking of using the Covert Ops rules to run a Shadowrun campaign, but before I dive into reading up on the setting (I've played the recent PC games, but would still need to do some reading) I'm curious if that's something more people would be interested in? &nbsp;I know Shadowrun is a popular setting, but what I don't know is if people like the setting more than the rulesystem. If you're interested let me know. &nbsp;You can check out my current LFG listing as well ( <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/46069/agents-of-sector" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/46069/agents-of-sector</a> ). &nbsp;We're probably going to do one more session of our current Covert Ops game since I'll be on vacation all next week and probably won't plan a new campaign then. &nbsp;Then after that we will be transitioning to either Shadow Ops or something else. &nbsp;
I'm currently in the process of creating a Danganronpa game, which would take priority, but i've been wanting to play shadowrun for a lond time. I'm not familiar with the Covert Ops system, but if it's not drastically different from the shadowrun one, i'd love to play. What time were you thinking of playing?

We try and play something every Saturday from 7pm to 11pm (or a good stopping point around/after 10pm). &nbsp;If someone is busy on Saturday then Sunday is our goto backup day. &nbsp;This coming Saturday (5/21) I'm going out of town for a week so we're going to take this weekend off. &nbsp;When I get back on 5/28 the plan is to play another session of Covert Ops. &nbsp;So the first Shadow Ops game would be Saturday 6/4. As for the Covert Ops rules being different from Shadowrun's rules, it depends on what &nbsp;you would call drastic. &nbsp;I've never played Shadowrun, but Covert Ops is a light d00 system (though on the meaty side of light) that (in the 4 sessions we've played) flows smoothly without getting bogged down in one combat encounter. &nbsp;Shadow Ops will be a little meatier as well since we'll be adding in spells, cybernetics, etc.
Interested. I have played BBF before, and am familiar with Covet Ops and the Shadowrun hack (downloaded last week). And Saturdays work perfectly for me. I am also in the EST zone. Failing that, I could jump into your Covert Ops game to keep that going.
