760 Patrons - Ideas for use

[IanBruntlett]

Hi,

I'm going to be using 760 Patrons in a scenario for the first time, in January.

I'm currently reading it in detail and I was thinking of using it by rolling up an encounter at the start of a standard cargo/mail drum mission and rolling up another encounter at the end of the mission.

At the moment, the (4) PCs are all marines but I think one of them could be replaced with a scout character (or perhaps something else) if it would improve the game.

Ideas? Examples?

TIA


Ian

I used the book to fill in the Ally, Contact, Rival and Enemy rolls during Character Generation.

For creating NPCs, it can also work, but not as a TRUE Patron generator. Although, it can sure spark the imagination!

This. Also, I have ideas to use it as a patron generator actually - insofar as the book, as RTT stated, can spark some ideas. In any case, it's the first "npc" book I've ever owned as an ever-busy adult with kids it'll be a lot better to handle those "one-the-fly" moments. Just need a name generator...
