Well, I'm not really concerned with jumping off points; I'm confident I'll be able to get a reasonable enough level of verisimilitude going after a session or two (seriously, after GM'ing a group of ninjas delivering cheeseburgers, anything else is easy).
I discussed it today with my players and working for DIMR as itinerant archaeologists seems to be the most popular choice. I'd love to see this thread keep going though, there's a ton of great campaign ideas already in here and I'm sure lots more to come. Someone above mentioned cannonball runs - I did a cannonball arc in a campaign once, the runners were hired for a series of escalating 'Runner Games' which were being used by the shadow org operating them as a way to get for free runs out of some of the best on the fiction that they were competing for a huge payoff. mixed in with serious runs were some real crazy ones though: Obtain and Deliver a full glass of Champagne from the 9th Circle of Dante's Inferno; Return to the Estate with a Lonestar Squad Car (bonus points if it still has the officers inside..) etc. It was alot of fun for a more lighthearted set of runs |

I certainly will; although probably in a new thread and not for several weeks, the game won't start until sometime in January. I may post portions of my preparation for it for feedback as well. |
