Stuff you need[edit | edit source]

Setting Summary[edit | edit source]

You are all residents of the Silicon Island. Silicon Island was created as a joint venture between Lockheed Martin and Samsung Techwin. It was created after the re-vitalization of the Soviet bloc. The island is known to for its manufacturing of new military goods to help the new UN deal with the threat. You are members of the Judgement, a group of specialist that specialize in taking town threats to the city, and transporting key military items. It is the year 2025. You all are currently being tested for HALO compatibility.

Tech Level[edit | edit source]

We will be playing in a slightly futuristic campaign. Think cyber punkish. Drones will be used by police, Mechs will be used as part of armored military units they are called V.T. . (Low end mechs, not gundams) The world will be connected by a streamlined internet that can be connected to called the Interweb. Cars can be placed into autopilot mode, guns for the most part are the same, but high level para-military forces use Augmented Reality glasses to help them take down threats. Megacorporations rival medium sized nations. Most things are connected to the internet and hackers are valued as much as an awakened.

Rise of mega-corporations[edit | edit source]

The monolithic powers are the Corporations, dubbed "Megacorporations", "Megacorps", or simply "megas" or "corps" for short. Megacorporations in the 21st century are massively global, with all but the smallest corps owning multiple subsidiaries and divisions around the world. They are the superpowers of the world, with the largest corporations having far more political, economic, and military power than some nations. The largest of these actually are registered UN members themselves.

Some of the largest corps also exhibit a privilege known as “extraterritoriality”, meaning that any land owned by the corp is sovereign territory only to the corp and immune to any laws of the country within. Corporate territory is not foreign soil but corporate soil, just like its employees are corporate citizens, though dual citizenship in a corporation and a nation is common.

Some Examples in the game

  • Samsung actually has taken power over all of Korea outside of the Seoul-Incheon Metro
    • Samsung's personal army is the drafted army for Korea
  • Google has sole ownership of the interweb and all information that goes through it.
    • Google manifests itself in every machine, Google can create a virtual clone of you via the information it gathers. (note due to your job you are for the most part off the grid)
  • Monsanto owns most of the worlds food supply.
  • Others...if you guys have any ideas please bounce them off of me.
