Re: Counter terrorism FMA was Alien terrain

Beth,

Great idea.  Make up some plans that match the building/terrain you are
using.	Copies for each side.  Place the terrorist "lines of sight" and
locations then play on those until some contact.  Go to the table from
there.

I do wonder how much fun the abstract portion would be.  I really do not
have a handle on it.  Could be downright boring or incredibly tense and
stressful as the team moves slowly forward into certain death <G>.

If you mean the two table idea then true ;)
A proxy you could use would be to have maps of the two and do some turns
using them only (with the teas in different rooms or corners or
something)
and then only move to the table once contact has been made.

Cheers

Beth
