The Chrome Berets

The PCs are hired to be mercenary commanders in a full-blown Third World conflict. At stake are the interests of entrenched oligarchs, military strongmen, revolutionary zealots, and big corporations. The cyberpunks get the opportunity to shape war and history in the 21st century.

The Chrome Berets features:

- Complete background on the Malagay Islands, a young pacific republic writhing under the twin hells of oppression and revolution. Isn't a tropical vacation just the thing for cyberpunks who've had too much of the big city? - Dozens of non-player characters -- dubious allies, formidable foes, self-interested politicians, and unscrupulous middlemen -- who will interact with the player characters. - An outline of plots, events, and NPC interests that gives the Referee all the information she needs, while judiciously avoiding a prescription of linear adventure. The characters' very goals, to say nothing of the story's resolution, are completely flexible. - KILL OR BE KILLED: a mass-combat system for the Cyberpunk game. It's suitable for large-scale operations that the Friday Night Firefight system in the rulebook can't very well cover. - New military hardware that your cyberpunks may put into action on the island -- maybe even bring home afterward. This source material could be used for any Cyberpunk campaign, anywhere in the world.
