Retro Engineering Boom - Event - Emergence of Zayin Group Heists, Interventions, Extractions, and Wetwork. A mysterious group hits the Zonetech underground. No one knows who they are, who funds them, or how they know so damn much. They prove to be a particular thorn in the side of any group or nation developing tech to close or block the Zones...

Event - European Riots Set in Period Retro Engineering Boom The EU cracks down on Zonetech, fearing the unknown and barely tested technology disrupting Europe. Europeans, seeing the surge of progress in the Americas and Asia, not to mention how their leaders seem to be enjoying access to this tech as part of official duties, express disapproval. Paris in particular is brought to a standstill by the riots.

Signs of Something Different - New Event - Creation of the OCRG (Between Right Twice A Day and Point Nemo) After a few squabbles among the different US agencies and departments, a conference is held leading to the creation of Outside Context Response Group, an interdisciplinary force made up from loaned personnel. While still rife with internal politics, the OCRG allows some level of coordination, policymaking, and info sharing that prove vital to keeping things under wraps for as long as possible.

Event (Bright) Signs of Something Different Right Twice a Day The more perceptive members of the Browsy Weird Stuff community notice government interference with their community, driving them into cryptographic hiding as the Broken Watches.

Yes: Small/Vehicle Sized Mechs for exploration and combat.

We can also throw a couple concepts together then vote on those.

Weird Quasi Scifi/Fantasy blend, like Olympic Exclusion Zone, or The Zone from Annihilation, or Roadside Picnic.

For Different I was thinking Modern/Near Modern. In conjunction with some of the Apocalypse poll, things like Modern Day with Fantasy or Scifi things happening (Magic Returns for Fantasy, Pod People for Scifi, or even something weirder like Pacific Drive's Olympic Exclusion Zone/Annihilation's The Zone, etc.)

Turns out thinking of what to post isn't posting. My Fate game is next Friday, and I doubt we wanna hit this Friday, so next good time for me is 2/2.

Yeah, I was kinda looking things over and going, 'What if I wanna play a Dawnbringer Crusader?' Of course, that's just to disguise my true intentions of 'How can I get saithor to let me play a Skaven...'

"Well you know the solution to Stone's disapproval?" Grey leans forward, a feint at a conspiratorial whisper, though she's yell-talking to be heard over the music, "...don't get caught." She leans back again, arms laying along the top of the booth, faking ease she is only kind of feeling. Hoping bluster works as well here to keep her out of local social faux pas. "It's against my religion to refuse the offer of free intoxicants, bring it on. But yeah, it's odd. The org I'm working for is probably going to be more odd jobs than milk runs. But from what I've been able to dig up, I think we'd make good business partners..."
