In my home city game my players have decided to topple a facist government from within, and I thought sweet, lets do a cool minigame to speed things up and send NPC teams to task suitable to them
Fluff: homebrew Eberron citystate - in the mountains of the Eldeen Reaches, lots of orcs and shifters and old druidic faith splintered into organized religion, there was a coup, now facists
Goals: make a fun mission based downtime system, a little inspired by kingmaker and most any kingdom minigame from many years of gameing so they can be accomplishing other goals while they roleplay/dungeoncrawl
Rules:
gain 40 victory points (RhoD nod) before 10 Government Notice Points or your rebellion will be crushed before it can begin
- complete missions based on skill/ability checks
- manage and use an abstract resource for man power given the Starwars hype I'll call it rebels
- min and max resources per mission, spending more gains +1 bonus on check, but increases notice government notice chance if over max?
-PCs and ally NPCs can count as min rebels maybe
structure could be eg.
Mission: Save Babies from evil henchmen
DC: 17 athletics or 14 arcana
Minimum rebels:1
Maximum rebels: 5
Danger: stealth 11 or gain 1 notice and lose 1d3 rebels
Reward 4 vp, Grateful townsfolk +2d4 rebels
Does this look fun? Looking for honest constructive criticism and idea's.
(will post links to google docs with more info)
