Breaking Bad Inspired Sci-Fi Scenario
"I Totally Saved Your Ass"
If you have ever watched Breaking Bad, there is an episode where Guss insists Jessie accompanies Mike on his rounds, to pick up dead drops (drug money) from various corners of the state.
I thought to myself, this could be a fun little scenario for the Potter Brothers.
So the scenario background could be something like:
The Potter Brothers hve picked up a contract from a shadey businessman to go around to various locations and pick up packages, thats all they have to do. Once all packages have been picked up and brought to a base, they will be handsomely rewarded for just doing a bit of driving around in the countryside, generally having a lovely roadtrip together. What could be easier?
Of course along the way, in reality, they will be facing hostile flore and fauna, as well as rival gangs, and, general no-good oppurtunists or highwaymen/women.
For this scenario, probably use a 4' by 4' board. Put a pickup location towards each cormer of the board, and one in the middle. This means there are 5 pick up locations.
All 5 must be picked up.
The exact package location is clearly marked at each location.
To pickup, they just have to pull up to the location, then hang around until the next move/round of movement, they have then picked up the package and can move off to the next.
Once all packages have been picked up, to complete the mission they must move off any edge of the first board.
Then clear that board and set up a new board.
The drop-off base is then placed in one corner of the board, the Potter Brothers enter at the diagonally opposite corner to this and must move across the board to the drop off base.
Before the game, create a 6 or 10 list table of potential enemies.
One of these entries must say "no activity".
Each move, roll a dice (D6 or D10) and consult the potential enemies table.
Place the relevant enemies within one move of the Potter Brothers current position.
The Potter Brothers must then fend them off next turn/round, they can try to skedaddle, but do make it difficult for them to do so and have surviving enemies follow them across the board.
For a vehicle, I am considering getting the Potter Brothers some various vehicles, that I will paint that glorious dirty yellow.
