Time to get serious

[kota1342000]

Ok, Im going to start posting some short adventures here, Im also going to see if they will fit on the T2K wiki. See what you think.

This one is the first of a three part series of the 7th ID Engineer Battalion during a retreat from China, and trying to get south of the 38th Parallel.

[kota1342000]

Fast Attack is designed as another quick adventure, with several options. I originally designed it for Iran, but I think I might make a modification for Europe as well.

[Grimace]

Have you thought of submitting some of these adventures to the Twilight: 2000 fanzine?

I think adventure modules would be a good inclusion to the fanzine.

[kota1342000]

Sounds like a plan to me Grimace, can I also get links to the fanzine?

Right now I have a need to get something T2K done in addition to making ready for my player group (which is pretty much complete). Ill post these here, submit them to the fanzine, and send them to the T2K wiki when I have time. I just cant see writing these up and not having them out for GMs to use.

[kota1342000]

TRAP is another Iran scenario involving rescue of shot down aircrew. This also has the cover template I got from Chico. :D

[Targan]

Perhaps we should edit the title of the Good luck, you're on your own! thread to include something like (T2K fanzine thread)?

[kota1342000]

Take it Easy involves a newly formed armored division with the task of clearing Soviet and Mexican forces from the area around Winslow AZ along the I40 corridor.

[kota1342000]

The Landings at Chahbahar is based from a spot about the US 1st Marine Division from the US Army Vehicle Guide / American Combat Vehicle Guide.

[kota1342000]

...and thanks for the directions Targan...working on catching up with the threads.

Could be a good thing to do. Perhaps someone with moderator status could do something like that. ;)

Ask, and ye shall receive.

MacGuyver's Engineers is part two of the 7th ID Engineers trilogy. The name comes from the name of the surviving CO of the battalion when I built all the PCs, and was originally unintentional until I thought it would fit pretty well with the scenario.

[kota1342000]

The 91st Infantry scenario may have been posted before. Sorry if this is a repeat.

[kota1342000]

Shoestring Wing is the first of two Air Force specific scenarios I built.

[kota1342000]

Saving Davis Monthan was originally designed as a four hour convention scenario, but there wasnt even close to being enough time. We felt it should either be broke into three parts or used as a mini campaign.

I'm thinking Groom Lake could also be used a landing site?

[kota1342000]

Perfect, even better if there is a rail line going there from Nellis.
Also, anyone wanting to use and modify what I have here, please go for it. Its my intention to get this stuff out for playing and its not chipped in stone. :D

[Tombot]

Bah, thats a lot...

Thanks KOTA! I am looking into this forum from time to time and i started playing (actively as a GM) only 3 years ago.
It hit me like a hammer when a former girlfriend of mine got me a lot of T2k-PDF´s as a birthday-present in 2007. Then it took me a while to find some players interested into the setting.

From this forum alone the amount of playable scenarios on my PC at least doubled.
And now all these gems... I dont know if we ever get to play´em.
Maybe if my group still lives, when we hit the retirement-home or something... We´ll see.

But i am so looking forward to it ! :)

[kota1342000]

Thanks Tom, more to come. Im almost out of what I have fully written up, but almost finished with a few more.

At this point, I also think I may need some Moderator and/or Member help. I have two BIG ones finished that are less scenario and more game module. Pacific Fleet is 295k in .doc form without the cover, and Iron Triangle has to be similar. Doing the final hammering for both and they should be ready in a couple of weeks.

[Legbreaker]

Perhaps Paul might be able to do something with them like he has with the fanzine and a few other docs?

[kota1342000]

Pulling the plug is the third of the 7th Infantry's Engineers, and is also a first mention in my stuff about the evacuation of Korea.

[kota1342000]

Holding the line is pretty much hack and slash with mechanized forces. Its one of two scenarios representing whats going on at the front while the 5th Infantry Division is getting plowed under. I also added a detailed OOB for the 36th ID, and that adds to the length of the document. I also know we've had the "J company" discussion, but if it bugs you, feel free to change it. :D

[pmulcahy11b]

I'm willing.

[kota1342000]

Schweet!
Also Paul, almost ready to post one you gave some advice about...Operation Pegasus.

[pmulcahy11b]

I'm waiting for that. Mainly because I don't remember the subject or what advice I gave -- I'm lucky if I remember my name these days...

[Legbreaker]

Welcome to the club - at least according to the missus.... :cool:

[Medic]

Leg, it's just something that happens along with marriage. Or binge drinking. Either one works, though the pathophysiology is a bit different. Booze melts your brains while marriage just automatically severs the connection between auditory organs and the brain upon hearing certain code words. ;-)

[Legbreaker]

I'm not married though - just "existing in sin" with the neighbour. :p

[Targan]

I'm not married though - just "existing in sin" with the neighbour. :p

That sounds convenient :D

[pmulcahy11b]

One step further than "Friends With Benefits."

[Medic]

Well, the rule "no ding-ding without the wedding ring" was always stupid in my opinion, anyway. I mean, if you were going to buy a car, you wouldn't probably do it without getting to know the technical details and taking it for a spin, would you? ;)

[Legbreaker]

One step further than "Friends With Benefits."

She actually bought the house next door AFTER she knew me. I think there's something a little wrong with her upstairs... ;)

[pmulcahy11b]

Hey, does she have a sister? There's a little something wrong with me upstairs -- maybe I need more of the same!:p

[Legbreaker]

She does, but she's in the UK and already married.

[rcaf_777]

Hey, does she have a sister?

I do but she's a hippie into no meat and yoga

[pmulcahy11b]

I do but she's a hippie into no meat and yoga

I do yoga -- it's good for my stiff joints -- but her being a vegetarian is a deal-breaker.:(

[Targan]

You're welcome to my sister. She's a rhino-sized single mum though.

[pmulcahy11b]

You're welcome to my sister. She's a rhino-sized single mum though.

Aren't rhinos vegetarians too?

[Targan]

Aren't rhinos vegetarians too?

Well normally yes. But I think in this case I may have originally had two sisters and she ate the other one.

[pmulcahy11b]

Boy, talk about complete and total threadjacking...

[kota1342000]

Meh. Ill be out for a bit anyway, we're getting our asses handed to us by the weather anyway.

[Targan]

Apologies Kota. Back on track, I've been downloading each of your scenarios as you've posted them. It's good stuff, full of good scenario ideas.

[pmulcahy11b]

I apologize too, especially since I was the one who started the silliness. I had an idea -- what if I combined everything you posted so far (including the DOCs) into one PDF and put it on my site for download? Just need a title for the whole thing.

[Legbreaker]

A "book" of scenarios?
Brilliant!

[pmulcahy11b]

A "book" of scenarios?
Brilliant!

I didn't think of it that way, but yeah!

[kota1342000]

Giving a Hand is the companion to Holding the Line.

[kota1342000]

Operation Pegasus is a scenario based from the RDF Sourcebook. :D

[kota1342000]

Iron Triangle is one of the big ones I have finished so far...though "finished" is a relative term. :D

[kota1342000]

And heres Pacific Fleet without the cover and many of the attachments Im putting in. This one is also a work in progress.

[stormlion1]

Pacific Fleet is pretty interesting reading. But one question. What happened to the New Jersey?

[kota1342000]

Arg. Thank you Storm.
New Jersey should be in Yokosuka, with most of her repairs complete but with little remaining 16in ammunition and not a drop of fuel in sight. I also should have mentioned that after New Jersey received major repairs after her slugfest with Frunze, she made a pair of short runs to provide shore bombardment support to the Chinese and Korean efforts. I knew I was forgetting something. Also keep in mind that none of these scenarios have been "Harpooned" out.

[stormlion1]

Thanks for the reply, I just noticed that it wasn't mentioned again after it went to Yokota, and why it went to a Air Force base, I'll never know. :D

[kota1342000]

Thanks for that catch as well. Thats the stuff that neither spell-checker or brain-checker will catch.
Any other problems that anyone can find are welcome. :D

[stormlion1]

I actually only noticed it because I'd been stationed there back in 94-95. For most people they wouldn't know the diffrence between Yokuska and Yokota if it came up and bit them in the rear.

[kota1342000]

Yeah I spent most of my Japan time in Okinawa, But we got to see a little of both. Kinda embarrassed I mixed them up. LOL

[Olefin]

Wanted to point out that Trap and Bridgework, both excellent works from this thread, were in the 2nd and 3rd edition of the Fanzine. Love to use more of the articles submitted here

[Olefin]

MacGuyver's Engineers will be in the 4th edition of the fanzine - just getting it put together now

[.45cultist]

Thanks for the reply, I just noticed that it wasn't mentioned again after it went to Yokota, and why it went to a Air Force base, I'll never know. :D

You meant "Yokosuka". I was at Yokota 94-95 too.
