Merc 2000

[Marc]

Dark conspiracy (with their rules compatible with Twilight:2000 and Traveller:TNE) have a good collection monsters, extraplanar creatures and this kind of pleasant beings. I suppose that GDW people dont have forgot about the oeclassics.

another merc idea

I was using google earth around Eureca,California - and to my astonsihment there seems to be KMZ overlays regarding "BIGFOOT SIGHTINGS" - so a mission searching for a bigfoot researcher - party is for instance hired by family or girlfriend of said researcher. Offcourse you can add a special government black-op research unit ;capturing bigfoots (or just hairy rednecks) using them for some RnD in battle-stimulants or something else, the bigfoot researcher is typically captured by the black-op-operatives...

Such a mission would include lots of action in wet forests, maybe normal animals as bears and wolfes and as a intro (before they find theeir target) u can make the players stumble upon a Marihuana crop with some local yokels a-la "the hills have eyes" or "texas chainsaw massacre"

ahh.the possibilities....

I've never associated Merc with zombies. I always seen Merc as more contemporary and modern day. more real.

If i went the zombie route, it would more likely be in T2K where some sort of suspention of belief is already in effect. And instead of being true zombies theyd be radioactively affected in some way.

Anyway, Tigger, keep us up to date. I'd be interested in hearing how you go.

Spoke to the guys from my group today. Looks like the game is going ahead on 22 March. Going to be a low key mission for them, starting them off against a street gang with a small drug lab. Based loosely on the scenario in the Merc rulebook. I'll keep you up to date on how it goes, both planning and the game.
