Title: Concidering a Texas based campaign...
Post by: frogboy7 on <08-31-11/0812:48>
Hey all.  After being away from SR for quite sometime  :'(  I had a thought...  after a looong road trip through Texas (like theres any other kind of road trip in Texas lol) i thought why not place a campaign there?  My "vision" is something like the Sixth World crossed with Road Warrior.  I was considering the base of operations to be in the Dallas-Fortworth area.  But as far as i know there is little setting info for that corner of the world.  If anyone knows any "official" info it would be of great help and save me some work  :D

You could probably pull stuff from today's narco wars along the border and just insert updated groups and add in a more militaristic response from CAS.

Definitely some fun to be had working against (or for depending on the group) Aztlan.

The neo-anarchist's guide to north america had a fair bit on Dallas/Forth Worth. The metaplot moved on from it, but I found it to be more interesting than where the metaplot's gone so I've stuck with it. I'm certainly having a lot of fun with it.

Something they have kept is that Dallas is a bit of a stop-off point for smugglers heading to the Aztlan border, which I liked.

Not to mention the Charlie-Foxtrot that was "Operation:  Fast and Furious" (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/06/15/house-panel-slams-fast-and-furious-gun-operation-tied-to-border-agents-death/)
