Greetings all, and welcome to the TANGO DOWN! pre-game thread. As you can tell, I'll be running a Merc/SpecOps game that's going to start out in Seattle but mostly take place in Azerbaijan, circa 2064.
What I'm looking for here is a bunch of players who are interested in building a team from scratch, not simply a group of individuals who happen to work well together. I'm encouraging discussion amongst interested parties about who in the team should fill what role, etc. Character generation for this game will be handled a little backwards...I want to see character backgrounds/histories before I assign build points...and if your background is good enough and thorough enough, I might just give you a few extra BP. I'd like to see some skill-heavy characters, with lots of experience in either a military organization or corp para-military unit. Anyone who is interested but needs some help sculpting your character, please PM or e-mail (chris.louviere@ieminc.com) me. I would be more than happy to help you guys along. |
