None of the old T2k links I know of featured this campaign. Do you have any other details 'cos this one really has me scratching my head?
EDIT: 15 seconds later and I just had an epiphany - either that or the collected crap in my head shifted sideways enough for me to comprehend something.
This sounds very much like the campaign Targan was running with the very morally suspect Major Po in charge. They had an alien item that could regenerate their injuries and I'm certain that the last mention of the game stated that they were in New York. As I recall, the campaign came to an end because one of the Players was being a bit of a dick and messing with the heads of the other Players.

Yes, apart from the Templars part that sounds like my campaign. It was set in the "Seven Worlds" version of the multiverse as described in Harnmaster's default setting, where the Earth (Terra) was one of seven "planets" that were basically linked in a metaphysical sense, but not physically (only two of the seven worlds, Sherem and Terra, were in the same physical "universe", and the Terra in Sherem's physical universe probably wasn't the same as our Terra). The Earth basically had the lowest psychic/magic level of the seven worlds, and my campaign had a kind of X Files feel to it, sort of a T2K/Twilight Nightmares/Dark Conspiracy/Delta Green fusion.
It's true that one of the players liked to mess with my head, that was the player of the PC Major Po, but he's a doctor of psychology in real life so I didn't blame him for it :). The honest reason I stopped running that campaign was that one of the players ended up in a relationship with a girl I had been in unrequited love with for 20 years, and I only found out they were in a relationship after they'd been together for some time. I took it really badly, partly because it had been going on under my nose for so long. I didn't blame him for it, but I couldn't deal with it being rubbed in my face every time I saw him/them so I felt I had to cut off contact to save my sanity. So really the campaign ending was my fault, my pride was pretty badly wounded and I was weak. There, that's the honest truth of it.
