What would you guys love to see as a cool campaign? I was thinking about epic campaigns in which all the missions are linked together, and got the idea for this thread. Have you ever wanted to do a highly story-driven campaign which would have an overarching story arc like a TV show, or perhaps one big hidden plot like a console RPG? Maybe something like Final Fantasy?

I think a campaign like Final Fantasy 7 in which one of the characters turns out to be a clone of the villain would be neat. Or maybe one like the Granstream Saga in which one of the characters has to choose to sacrifice one of the other characters, wiping him/her from the face of history to save the world.

Or, for a more down to earth campaign, how about one in which the players are a runner team doing a prolonged campaign of investigation and attack against a group of arms smugglers? The campaign could end with a three-way shootout between the runners, the arms smuggling ring leaders and their bodyguards, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tabacco, and Firearms. At the start of that battle, the players would find out they were hired by the ATF, and now that they have found the leaders of the smuggling ring, their employers want to get rid of them so they can take credit for the bust themselves. The runners would have to fight their way out from between the ATF strike team and the equally desperate gun dealers, and find some way to keep the Johnson from hunting them down, either by killing, kidnapping, or blackmailing him.
