Greetings all. I'm starting this thread to gauge interest in a game I'm thinking about running. The basic premise is this:

The characters are all CAS Consular Operations operatives who are tasked with a long-term, deep cover mission that requires them to pose and behave as Shadowrunners. The game is going to be set mostly along the CAS Gulf coast area, and will be using 4th edition rules.

The kicker is, I have house rules for a LOT of things. Mostly, those rules center around firearms, armor, and combat. Plus I use thresholds way more than dice pool penalties for tests.

So if that doesn't scare you away, and this sounds interesting, let me know. I've got 5 slots to fill, and I want the team to have all of it's bases covered. Later on this week, I'll post my character gen rules, and then will probably give everyone until the middle of next week to write up their characters. So go ahead and sound off!
