Hey, has anyone here ever done a terrorist campaign, in which the PCs were a terrorist cell? I think it would be pretty neat to play a group of neo-anarchists who are politically motivated, and make their money either from looting or discrete contributions from private donors, rather than being hired. Would anyone like to GM such a game on the boards? Cause I would love to do that.
