I haven't seen anything for the A-team, so here's me giving them some love. I've been re-watching the original series (thanks Netflix!) and I've got a hankering to modernize it and to make it more serious (not necessarily more serious in tone, but content and believability; Apart from the disaster of the movie remake). I'd need at least 3 people. If there's a lot of interest we could go up from there and fill in other positions such as friends of the A-team who assist, the clients and even the villains if we felt so inclined!

Spots are:
Hannibal
B.A.
H.M. Murdock
Face

Of course since we're modernizing it I wouldn't care if they changed gender, names, what have you. E.G. Hannibal is a cigar smoking BAMF five foot five woman named Julie (IDK, random name off the top of my head). Because that would be awesome. My only criteria is that they fulfill the same role. E.G. Hannibal is the leader and the one who comes up with the plans. Murdock is the pilot. Etc.

In terms of setting, it would be like the TV-show. It's not all going to be based in the U.S. There will be times when the team goes overseas. Either on a job or to escape from the military.

To keep in the spirit of the original A-team, there will be moments of over-the-top action (as my compatriot calls it) or campiness. However the only cap on it will be the requirement it is based in reality. Certain things like exploding cars, doing MacGyver like things with paper and twine in order to make a gun, those things are acceptable. Having a hoover car would not be. Because we don't have the technology to build it.

Despite the allowance for said action, this RP will have an air of seriousness. There will be consequences for actions. You blow up a car, people will die. Unless the car was empty (in which case there wouldn't be). If you find yourself in the realm of quasi-anime physics, you've probably strayed too far down the rabbit hole. If you need anymore clarification, please ask.

As for background. We'd keep with the same premise as the TV-show.

"In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them....maybe you can hire The A-Team."

As in the team is on the run from the military. They wont be based out of LA, but might have contacts there. I know I always had a hard time believing they couldn't find the A-team when they showed up at B.A.'s mother's house.

Unlike in the show, where it focused more on the side jobs. I'd like to focus more on their main goal, getting their names cleared. Their merc for hire jobs will play a large part, but it's not the overarching plot. Chances are each "episode" will see the A-team helping out a new client while dodging the military. While the main goal will loom over everything.

The requirements will be Casual-Advanced.
