You know, the latest group I started Gm'ing actually WANTS to get into the Archology. I'm not sure how I'm going to handle that, but I'm going to let them do it if htey want to.

Well, if you've got a copy of Renraku Arcology: Shutdown, they describe several entrances, the Ork Underground being the "safest" in terms of Deus' awareness (or so we're led to believe)

Have the player's closely associated with the gov't go on a freelance "Find Governor Schultz" run then have everything go blotto afterward.

I liked the Helo pad personally. it had anti-aircraft stuff on it, but you could hit it with a halo jump and some GPS software.

Oh I've got ENTRANCES, but no floorplans of any sort. That is my biggest problem with Sr products in general: lack of floorplans/maps. The books SUCK when it comes to that. But anyway, if they want in, I'll let them get IN. It's the getting out that is the problem. Of course, I could always have them "collected" by Deus and turned into part of the Network. That might be fun...

hahaha, I always use floorplans from google.

they've been harder to get after 9-11, but you can still find floorplans to most public buildings.

Well, I wouldn't trust a structured floorplan since the modular design of the arc allows you to make the floors look like whatever you want them to be.

Well, there's nothing that says you can't modify the floorplans you get to suit your needs.

but it's easyer to get something and 'fix it' rather than draw it from scratch.

I know, but what I was getting at is that if the players are stuck in the arcology for a while, the floor they were just on might suddenly change.

Additionally, the arc has what? 500 some floors? How are you gonna make a floorplan for each floor?

Well, it really depends on how well prepared you want to be for the run.

I've drawn out a 50 floor section for a doungeon-crawl style run before.

took hours and hours, but the gameplay was amazingly smoothe.
