I don't have time to help playtest Gangs of Mega-City One, but I am interested in news of the game. Is there any news that the folks from Mongoose Publishing would be willing to share? Thanks.

Here's an idea: Maybe the players are a crack commando unit sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.... Plenty of story possibilities there, I think. :wink:
