OK, I'm going to take a crack at running a game...
Medium will be DSF, no PBEM/IRC or anything as I'm at Western-Europe time and I'm not willing to give up a couple hours of sleep each day :P As the description suggests, this will be a high-powered setting, so here's the creation guidelines: * BeCKSv2, 2M:nuyen: max. * 460 Karma limit * Preferably made with nsrcg * No availability cap (see below) * Standard rating/skill maximum rules apply (6 max.) To further explain the change in availability rules, I'll go into the details of the mission you'll be presented a bit: the target is -extremely- high-security oriented, so covert action is probably a better choice than going in toting a Panther cannon. I'll probably be lenient on MAD/cyberware scanning, but keep in mind you will encounter these, so smart and/or selective use of cyber is encouraged. The setting will be arcology-ish, with a twist. (Don't go jumping for those RA:S books yet, I haven't borrowed anything from that books except maybe a few ideas on what to include in an arc.) The twist being, it's airborne :grinbig: so maybe you'll want to consider your choices in skills, character background etc. based on that. More info to come when and if anyone shows interest :) |
