I'm about 2/3 through Winslow's "Power of the Dog".   Great fiction account of the beginning of the Mexican Cartels.   Though a bit north of your intended action, the book would be a good scenario source (and there actually are some scenes set in Colombia).

Looks like a great project.

It is a well known fact that EVERY drug-wars-like game turns into a Predator-B Movie-game sooner or later...

Great sounding project! Do the players have to play, speaking in bad South American accents?

Jim, that hanger looks the biz! What planes did you get?

What about these guys for your game. The Crooked Dice Danger 5 set comes with....er....5 models! ::) 3 of them might be good characters.



Also, they have a villain character that'd be good......

He's the bad guy that killed former Miss USA Deborah Shelton in Brian de Palma's BODY DOUBLE (1984)!!!  :o

Maybe it's because of my background over on the Colonial Adventures board, but when I see the proposed set-up of airstrip, hangar and tropical foliage, my mind goes towards an Entebbe raid or Wild Geese type of set up.

You should do that as well as drug cartels and Predators. :) Anyway, good luck with it. Looking forward to seeing the it in all its finished glory with battle reports and shit.



Edit: Oh, and you definitely need Zoe Saldana in a catsuit, and a motorized garotte that cuts Brad Pitt's head off if you're going all-in with drug cartel nonsense.  ;D
