Forward Planning for Override

Greetings friends!

So I need to get this down on paper in order to make sure that I don't forget it!

As you most likely already know, for Override I currently have 3 books planned. The first being the Core Book and the 2nd and 3rd being story campaign books.

But what about between them? Now that's interesting in itself. After all, events happen in between the 'now' and 'then' if the campaigns, but those events are not interesting enough for the campaigns themselves, but they are tied together.

After all Book2 focuses on the fall of a major city. That doesn't happen without a lead up.

Instead individual story missions are going to be produced. Just a single self contained one between each book that gives you a taster of what is to come.

The first is to bridge book 1 and 2, is seton the deep Badlands in a rural farm, one of the few farms on Honos that produces real meat rather than refined nutrient enhanced junk. The owners of this farm were fanatical Christians and named it Rapture Farm, but for some reason their latest shipment of meats was never shipped and they are not responding to connections trying to reach them.

And so we are introduced to High Noon at Rapture Farm.

In this mission both players will be competing to steal Rapture Farm's black box and escape with their lives, but the Farm's population infected with a mysterious virus might have something to say about that.

Yup, that's right, for the first time ever we will be featuring the first in-game Non-Playable faction in the form of The Infected.

Can you reach the centre of Rapture Farms, steal the black box and deal with the cause of the infection?

In this single mission encounter, the portents for Book 2 shall be revealed.

Until next time; stay safe and be excellent to each other!
