Welcome to the Jungle!
1st Force Recon, 1st Army Special Forces Reconnaissance Unit, Coalition States Army, Chi Town.
The first army is based out of Chi Town. The unit has a brilliant history of success and awards. The 1st Force Recon team is a coveted team to become a member of, similar to being a part of the old U.S Seal Team Six.
- Build options: Make character as per RAW with standard forum rules. Re-trapping may be allowed on a one off basis, but no 'special' characters. All characters are standard / normal CS troops from Chi Town. Unlike most of my games that have unconventional characters this truly is CS characters. Psychic is ok. No magic.
- Notes on weapons and armor: Long Range Recon often employs non standard CS gear. So pick non CS armor. CS weapons are available. We are trying to not look CS.
- Advancement: Character will begin with 3 total advancements (7 if MARS). This already includes site bump and all other factors. Representing that your character has been a part of the CS for a year or two.
- MARS F&G Roll: MARS characters may select their Fortune and Glory results, however the same option may not be selected multiple times.
- Hero's Journey: You may roll the dice, then select from your character's allowed Hero's Journey tables to apply the die roll to.
- You are loyal CS: troops, grunts, intel ops, special forces, psi stalkers, dog boys, wilderness scouts, EOD etc. You have been selected for a special mission in South America. Please feel free to discuss options with GM. EDIT: As you are not NPC’s you do not have to take Vow: Loyal to CS. You can. Either as a Major or Minor, but are not required to. Even if you do not have this Vow your character has been loyal to the CS up to start of game. Possibly something changes that as we progress but if so probably you’ll need to join a different team.
- All ranks will be enlisted unless approved by GM to be an officer. If you via for officer be prepared to be team leader.
- Special Note: Each of you has a reason you can speak Spanish. Either from your background or by CS training. This skill is free: Speak Spanish d6. So you can speak American and Spanish but not read or write either. You are illiterate! Unless you spend/buy an Edge: Literate: (Language).
- Max 8 Players.
The CS team will assemble in Chi Town, be sent to S. America and play through their own trials and tribulations while occasionally interacting with the other two teams headed to S. America.
Ultimately there will be a showdown or some sort of epic crossover between the three teams/groups sent to obtain the artifact in S. America. Granted to get to that point the Characters will have to survive the mission deep into South America. There will be more than just Federation Mages and Legion members to deal with on the journey.
