Totally fine with this if someone else wants to move it forward. I'm fine with people setting up a scene a bit.

I can do that, or @Little Italy can take care of it just so she can jump in with a post.

I wouldn't mind setting the scene as long as I have some details about the base to work with?

And I must have missed you suggesting her as a driver, I'm totally cool with that!

Honestly, I think there isn't a base per se. They're working as a cell, but the place they're going to will be deeper in the Green Mountains and is probably a prepared location for guerrillas. Stockpiled supplies. So they'll be getting of the beaten road.

It's probably not fair to call it a base. More like a hole, a place to hide. It might have a stove and some cots, but it's rugged.

I would suggest a hunting cabin deep in the woods. It may have been something the Guiguere boys used since they were kids; a place they are familiar with. It would be something difficult to get to, but yes, you could drive a 4x4 to get there.

That makes sense. They might have stuff cached nearby as well. Weaponry and supplies.

Hey, is it fine if I make a character that defected from the United Socialist States of America? Maybe a politician or an ambassador?

If I might ask, why would such a character defect so early on? The US just fell and the Warsaw Pact is still consolidating gains. I'm okay with the idea of a politician, but I think that to avoid having him executed, there would need to be a good IC reason for them to trust your character's loyalty.

Just pointing this out, but I'm fine with seeing what you come up with.

So with all this in mind, how would he wind up with a relatively small cell like this? What envisioned meeting do you have in mind? Of course, they are in a safe house in the mountains, their next move might be to grab him and pull him out there. They might get that as an emergency cell phone call.

Is he being detained by guards or anything? What are your thoughts?

If so, the group will probably have to get automatic weapons and do an actual assault to obtain him and his information.

@HeySeuss. I plan on having Wyatt's friend looking inside the suitcase, causing Wyatt to either knock out or kill his friend. After Wyatt runs away from the scene, the police start looking for Wyatt all over the town. People around town start talking about the incident and a rumor spreads about the mysterious suitcase. Someone from this cell hears about the rumor and manages to get a name, Wyatt Robinson. The person digs around and finds out that he was a politician for the newly United Socialist States of America. Sullivan uses his connections to find out where Wyatt is hiding. Then, Wyatt's disappearance becomes national news and spreads all over the country. Confirming his political background to everyone in the cell.

Meanwhile, the secret police manages to track down Wyatt and sends an undercover to meet with him. The undercover says that he's from a rebel cell in the Midwest and wants to see the suitcase with some of his friends. Wyatt agrees to a location and plans on meeting them; but, he doesn't know that they are in the secret police. Your guys' mission is to track down Wyatt and save him before he reveals the contents of the suitcase and gets arrested.

Is it good enough or do you have something else in mind?

I need to think this through, maybe the meeting was set up with LeBeau and company.

One particular thought on the data your character might be carrying, @The Spectre is data on how the current Soviet security systems on the internet work and so forth, since my thought is that they stuck some security on to deter casual users from accessing, but have not been able to plug it up the way they'd like. However, being able to use the internet is a subtle sort of victory for resistance forces.

My feeling is that they'd probably have gear there like good tents, some winter gear and other stuff. Hunting stuff, bought from outfitters, rather than military surplus that might raise eyebrows.

Thoughts? And would they have dug some sort of cellar into that cabin? Ie, to hide in so it doesn't look occupied?

The miltary/survival stuff isn't really my forte but I imagine the cellar is a good idea. The more ramshackle it looks the better off they are.

This makes sense, although, many hunters shop at Army/Navy surplus stores in the area. More than likely, they go for the older woodland camouflage than the more recent ACU stuff.

Sounds good. I just got Cabela's and L.L. Bean outfitters' catalogs for the hunting season and realized that they've got some pretty good stuff. So it might be a mix of whatever but I imagine that's what the cabin is looking like at this point. They probably spent time prepping it while recruiting.

As noted, the internet is currently limited, and I guess we need to work @The Spectre's character in. I wanted to throw it open to suggestion since I want to get him started sooner than later. Thoughts?
