Game Idea: Stargate Ascendant

[Natalie C. Barney]

This is a Stargate TV series spinoff. Set on another site this Gamma Site is the base of Stargate Ascendant the place of the Ancients that bridges Stargate: SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis. Made up of a military, scientific and other friendly aliens its the base of the battle against Earth's enemies.

Will be serious with many themes and yes sex when it would naturally come up. You will have access to Earth's first small gate vessels the FALCON STRIKE SHIP, a fairly technologically advanced city and a Earth research facility. A military operations section. And of course the major enemies of Earth to fight- the G'ould, the Wraiths and the Replicators. Add to this the normal duties to make diplomatic contact with aliens, get technology to help Earth and peaceful exploration.

Will use the RUSUS game rules and an off sight dice roller if needed.

Need members of SG- Delta a special forces stargate team and they better be ready what is to come. Will need 6 characters to be sure- three special forces soldiers (USA or allied nations in the program), a diplomat, a brilliant scientist and an archeologist. The special forces must cover the skill specialties needed. Basically a medic, demolitions expert and a leader of the team. Cliches' under Risus should cover most options.

Well I'm not familiar with RUSUS game rules. But I will learn them if the game get's going. I love stargate lol Count me in.

Don't the rules are around 12 pages and EZ as hell, perfect for on-line games. Just looking to see if I can get 6 players but I ran this at a convention in a few scenarios.

I could get by on two I did this at Gen-Con in a pick-up you would be a elite triad, they are in my game think of black ops people they do the high risk missions and are broadly trained you must have a military cliche' and a second cliche of a science or cultural nature.

A required cliche will be Special Forces Unit Member [Combat Expert, First Aid, Use Military Field Technology, *One Elective Area*] since everyone has either active special ops training or extensive SG Team experience so are good warriors. In simple terms everyone can fire weapons, knows martial arts, can sneak and ambush, pathch people up use fairly advanced technology and do something specific like Field Medicine, Demolitions, Pilot, Sniper or something else. All have some relevant science training or something. A last cliche would be open but likely fit the best-of-the-best model so could be an athletic area, or an advanced degree or a veteran soldier or another military area.

They are formerly attached to the Stargate Military Arm and can expect the toughest assignments. They are called Stargate Special Ops or SSO's. And must have a small number of specialists from 2-4 (average is 3).
