Modern Thriller with Savage Worlds
I've been thinking about running a modern thriller campaign, focusing on freelance heroes in a world like you'd expect to see in a Bourne movie or a Tom Clancy book. I've narrowed things down to a few options:
Supernatural Conspiracy: The PCs are independent operatives - burned spies, ex-military, criminals, etc. - who stumble upon a vast international conspiracy, controlled by a mysterious, supernatural entity or entities. Jason Bourne meets Van Helsing.
Swordfish: The PCs are members of an anti-terrorist organization that doesn't officially exist. Frustrated by international politics that allow evil men to walk free, their organization is self-funded and self-motivated, free from the constraints of government interference. They do bad things to very bad people. See the 2001 film Swordfish.
Mercs: The PCs are an independent mercenary company, taking jobs all over the world from whoever will pay them. It's not nice, and it's probably illegal, but it pays the bills. Some contracts let them play hero, rescuing hostages and aiding downtrodden rebels against oppressive regimes, while others involve kidnapping, false-flag operations, and other dirty deeds. See The Expendables films or the anime series Black Lagoon.
So, what of the above appeals to you?
