[QUOTE="Chainsaw Mage, post: 1362104, member: 16679"] First of all, I love your idea. Just reading it gave me tons of ideas for my own adventures. I really enjoy it when people post things like this--makes these boards a great resource. Okay, now on to your questions: 1) For the same reason that only Frodo can take the ring to Mordor...namely, it doesn't have to make much sense, just make it happen. How about a lone military commander sends the PCs there on a fishing expedition that isn't authorized? He tells them something like, "I'm not even supposed to be talking about this, but I'm sending you in. You're the only ones I can trust..." etc. 2) A recent Dungeon/Polyhedron had a Delta Green adventure with some pretty good maps...but really, any basic "dungeon" map would suffice. Just turn slime-covered stone walls to slime-covered steel walls. :D I really like the previous suggestion of using floorplans for Half-Life or similar video games...I've done that before and they are superb resources. 3) Depends if you want to go pseudo-scientific or occultic. But my vote would be a star doppelganger for the great evil (DAMN those are cool) and mindless zombies for the minions. You GOT to have zombies, dude...and limited ammo, and...and...and... Excuse me, I'm off to plan my own game. :D [/QUOTE]
