all of which are places you hardly hear much about in discussions on the board and where you could have a stranded bunch of Americans or Brits in very easily - more so in Pakistan and China than India - in a place where there is no govt at all and its down to the village level

A while ago someone - I can't recall who - started a thread about ideas for campaigns set in more unusual places. If I recall correctly various suggestions were put forward (one that I recall involved East German troops who had been serving with the Soviet forces in China and were now trying to make their way back to Germany; another - and probably more popular - one was for the pc's to be a group of US Marine Corps Embassy Security Guards stuck somewhere in Africa and trying to make for the coast to get a ship to the US. I think Law went as far as starting a pbem based on that premise).
