I'm starting a THS game tonight, just character generation. It will be a new system/setting for just about everybody. I plan on pulling story ideas from spy games, SpyCraft and the like.
I plan on starting with a canned module for THS (review here (http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/11/11029.phtml)) and keeping the investigation and intrigue going. It will be a very combat light game.
If anybody has any favorite SpyCraft modules feel free to speak up. :)
I'm also looking for general input on intrigue ideas and plot lines.
I'd love to play some TNS but suspect that I'm not up to running it. Also, GURPS scares me.
The first session went pretty smoothly.
We introduced the characters and let people get a feel for the world and the game. Most of the folks in the game have never played GURPS and non have played THS.
It looks like a game full of intrigue will fit nicely into the THS setting. It will also allow me to pull story ideas from all sorts of novels and movies. There is no shortage of spy genre material.
Watching Fight Club over the weekend gave me a killer idea for a BBEG utilizing something along the lines of Project Mayhem. It's not a spy game so to speak, but it could be if someone were investigating it. YMMV
