I've written a load of company profiles for Version 4 and I'm not sure how I should display them. I rather like the way that Cyberpunk/Corporation/etc write the profile as if written by the marketing department (with some game text naturally) and corporate logos but I am not sure it makes it easier to use.

What do you think? Big corporate profiles or simple list in line with the rest of the book?

Well it depends on how much extra work it is, and if you can accommodate that extra time in your bloody ridiculous schedule.

I voted for the Individual Company profiles, it's just cool!

I'll echo Mr Echo. Individual profiles can become mini introductions to those corporations. It gives the reader a chance to see some of the personality involved, and it gives you as a writer an opportunity to use different character voices. Not to mention that corp profiles pretty much write themselves. If you find any difficulty in writing them, you are obviously too sober. I've had to this sort of thing often enough as part of a rebranding strategy in my day job. Scotch helps. It helps lots.
