Maybe a sovereign, player-run nation is resisting the Rebel Army at its border and have to adapt to the war as it progresses, from the royal family to the soldiers on the battlefield. Failing that, maybe just a squad-based RP will do, beggars can't be choosers when it comes down to it. I think the right people can balance the occasionally ludicrous subject matter (at least some of it) with the hard drama of war, though I'd understand if the GM wanted to shift the tone one way or another.
