looking for interest in an "unconventional" CoC D20 game

Sathanai · May 4, 2003

Hey all...

I'm running an adveture for my gaming group soon, and i wanted to be able to run it online as well, so i thought i'd see if there was any interest

Based on the "global hotspots" subgenre, the characters will be members of an elite - but illegal - unit maintained by a powerful corporation, covertly deployed around the world to protect the corporation's interests by any means necessary. Needless to say, the group will run into the awful denizens of the dark..
I'm aiming more for survival horror than investigation with this one, so it won't, i imagine, be to everyone's taste, but let me know if you're interested.

I'm interested. What do you need?

Sathanai · May 5, 2003

What do i need? Well, 2nd level characters, really

I'm using a 30pt point-buy system for stats. The game is set in the 2000s era (in Europe), and i have no restrictions regarding psychic feats for characters with the relevant charisma.

I would recommend the soldier and agent profession templates, but if anyone wants to play something a little different by all means say so, and i'll do my best to accommodate.

Also, weapons can be chosen from a vastly expanded list, which at the moment can be found here: http://boards.wizards.com/community/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=266;t=001114

Any questions, feel free to ask here or email me...

This sounds like fun. I'll join up, probably with the agent template, if that's ok? I'll get started on my character tonight.

I'm interested in your game, thinking about soldier temp. Will draw up a char soon.

kuro.

Cool

Just a warning - my posting will be erratic over the next day or so (damn my computer needing fixing! borrowing a friend's comp) but i'm still here, i'll take a look at any characters you draw up and and i'll be back to full-time posting by friday.

Also, i am using the variant offence/defence option rules, just in case anyone wondered.
