Default Interest Check: Alt. T2k Campaign

I mentioned this off-hand in another thread, here, as just something I was kicking up in my mind.

Basically, it has been two years since the zombie apocalypse. The good news is, most of 'them' have decomposed. The government (the American one at least) has survived in numerous enclave shelters built to weather disasters far worse than hordes of zombies. But, there are more problems than just the 'undead'. Most of the local populace has gone to pot, either rioting and panicking when the undead hordes marched through their neighborhoods, or openly rebelling when the military units declared martial law. Chaos claimed more lives than the zombies.

Enter the PCs, a group of 'volunteer' soldiers who will be leaving the safety of the enclave with all the ammo/food/fuel/gear they can stuff in or on their vehicles. The mission: Discover the fate of POTUS. I call it T2000: Down the Road.

My plans entail for v1 of T2000, because I have the core rulebook readily available. The campaign itself will be very similar to a traditional T2000 campaign. Fuel, disease, marauders, and villages are all common occurrences on the road across the United States. Hell, I'll even set in in 2000, with a different sort of apocalypse. While it might be a relatively 'scenic' drive to Maryland, the countryside is besieged with chaos and the last few hordes of zombies. You'll be safe inside your LAV-25...until it runs out of gas...and you run out of ammo...

So, with that said, does anyone want to embark on this crazy experiment?

I sure will! It will be my first game, and after all, any T2K game is a good game!

That seems like some pretty sound logic!

And for all of those who are worried about time or anything, 1 post every 2-3 days is fine with me. I'll bump things along if they need bumping, but I usually let my players take the wheel when it comes to PBP stuff. And there will be a definitive end to this campaign, so I guess you could call it an 'extended adventure' or something. Point A to Point B, it's just how long it takes until you get there! And the encounters along the way...

I've set up the game on RPOL! It is called T2000: Down the Road. I set it to an Adult-rated game, almost a force of habit to make sure we can cover whatever we want, so in your RTJ I'll need a DOB and a statement saying that you are legally able to view adult content in your place of residence. Gotta follow the protocol.

I'm interested, posting in RPOL as "Deathstalker"
