This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Ideas? Besides the "Mo' Planes!" Scotty has been dreaming of, I mean. :D

I can think of several:

1: Entire pre-packaged mercenary campaigns, both real world and fictional.

2: Equipment and/or vehicles, concentrating on single divisions, like a Brown Water Navy supplement or a Mechanized Infantry Supplement.

3: Prospective Contracts, with maps, fully developed back histories and thorough analyses of both sides.

4: Advanced Tools for creating contracts in more depth than in the core book.

5: More Prior Services for ChaGen Options.

Any more?

Wild Blue: Banana Republics

The organisation of your typical dictatorship, political fallout of contracts. Warlords and movements.

Introducing - The Fallout Scale. A mechanism to determine the stability of a country/region/ whatever and surrounding states. Actions affect the Fallout Scale. Could lead to whole campaigns based on what has been carried out by the PCs in the past in the area.

I demand Guardia Svizzera Pontificia as Prior Service Option!

The game direly needs funnily clad polearm-toters who speak all "K"s as "CH"s :D

When I write "TDE", I mean "The Dark Eye". Wanna know more? Way more?

Can't do them as Prior Service, Skyrock! They're already mercenaries! :D

Point taken.

Btw, I support the Fallout idea for banana republics. It would not only fit great into many merc campaigns (Iraq, Jagged-Alliance-Style tyrannys etc.), it would be an awesome mechanic for use in other games. I'd probably buy a mini-supplement just for such a subsystem alone.

Yeah - it's elegant! I'm jazzed about it myself!
