Modules / Adventures
« on: 16 June 2022, 01:48:20 »
Are there any modules and/or adventures for Mechwarrior Destiny? My friends and I have played through the classic Mechwarrior RPG adventures and are looking for something new.  I know we could create something but but I wanted to check first.  Thanks in advance.

The Shrapnel magazines have been getting some RPG scenarios every so often.
So there's at least on consistent place to keep a look out.
It's not about winning or losing, no it's all about how many chapters have you added to the rule books after your crazy antics.

Oddly enough, there are one-page Traveller adventures by a guy named Michael Brown that with a little bit of elbow-grease can be adapted into MW:D scenarios.

If not, look at other game systems to steal stuff from and run though. Twilight 2000 could give tons of stuff from old 1st ed stuff. Maybe Shadowrun stuff for non-mech-based or even change a couple of things and you can add some big fight with mechs.

I have used the great worldbuilding tools from Stars Without Number to create Mechwarrior adventures. They have everything from military battles (Starvation Cheap), merchants/traders (Suns of Gold), to espionage (Darkness Visible). You can easily reskin them for Mechwarrior scenarios.

a lot of modern era RPG scenarios would probably work as a foundation as well since a lot of the BTU exists in a flux of technological states between uptech frontier to near future. replacing or adding certain universe elements could be done without a ton of disruption
