User created Flashpoints

[BARBOSA (Aries)]

I already played "The Raid" from Amechwarrior and The Cache from Hosteen Storm.

I´m glad to have played them and i´m thankful to the creators.

And i wish to play more

So, i´d like to know if there is any other user created FP other than those two mentioned above.

Thanks!

I have heard that RT has some made for it.
Not 100% on that as I don't use it.

I know @akodoreign has been making a ton of them for RT. I'm starting to plan my next one for vanilla that will use UW features. The modularity of 3Way Battle and Attack/Defend mentioned on the streams seems perfect for memorable FP challenges.

I'm still looking for a idea though. "Why not raid the Black Market?" Was the nugget that spawned the first one and I'm still trying to strike gold for the plot. Like "The Raid" I'm planning out the missions and branches now and then slapping plot/story on top.

@Amechwarrior well...for UW.....how about an encounter with the Bounty Hunter.
ends up your merc unit and he are both after same thing...
depending on choices he might fight with or against you

and then of course....you could always make a FP out of one of the many BT scenario sourcebooks.......

I don´t use roguetech either. But thanks for the info. I´ll give it a look.

For vanilla seems to be those two for now, but i´m glad we´re getting another soon (Thanks @Amechwarrior).

I feel like someone should create a Flashpoint based on the Flashpoint scenario book because symmetry.

@Amechwarrior you could make a Solaris Games flashpoint

Amechwarrior made a guide about how doing Flashpoints. I've been tempted to do one myself, but I just don't have the time. I've already made a skeleton "storyline" set after the main campaign but that's the easy part, I still need to try my luck doing everything else.

But if we all try our luck to make some, we all could deliver a huge amount of good content created and delivered by us to us.

Start small, make a simple FP like "Training Wheels" or just change the contracts in that FP to get a feel for making an encounter. Then once you know what to do you can take another small step by editing a conversation. Just keep tackling the small things and before you know it you've made something big.

Dumb question... If I have an idea for user FP, but no time to make it, where can we just post an idea so someone else can take it to completion?

EX:

FP: Bait and Switch

You are summoned by a merchant of [Faction], who needs a certain pirate base captured. It was supposedly heavily defended. He claimed that local officials are taking bribes and refused to send in the military. So he's forced to turn to mercs.

Mission: Due to anti-air resources in the area, you are limited to 50-tonners.

The base has only light turrets and all the defenders (8x) are 30-tonners.

You captured the base, and someone surrendered to you. He tells you that he's actually undercover agent from [Faction] and whoever hired you is actually a pirate sympathizer he was investigating. He needs evacuation now. In return, he's willing to give you a reputation boost with his faction and a share of bounty (250K?)

Consecutive deployment.

FP Choice A) Believe the agent. In which case, the "military" (bribed, remember?) attack to rid any and all witnesses. Defend base mission. Mediocre pilots, first lance is vehicles (APCs and tanks) not expecting resistance. , second lance is medium and heavy mechs. (militia force)

FP Choice B) Turn the agent over, in which case, the agent's friends attack to rescue him (or to silence him?) Convoy escort mission. Ace pilots, first lance is medium vehicles, second lance is medium mechs (elite operators)
