Some months ago, while chatting with Premonitioner, he made the disastrous mistake to tell me about an idea that he had once had that involved filling in the gap between FF1 and 2 with a few short adventures starring different characters or small groups. I say "disastrous" because, unfortunately for him, this idea caught my interest in a big way. I was fairly burnt out with the DCUG at the time, thanks in part to the ugliness a while back, but I had always wanted to do something with the FF cast. Long story short, I bugged Prem. until he came up with a working first mission, and then I contributed two more in short, and then very, very long order. The result is the first episode of Patriot City Tales!
Join your favorite FF'ers in the aftermath of the events of the first game (and those of Liberty Bay). Things are quiet, and the heroes are beginning to go their separate ways. However, evil threatens Patriot City once again, and the few remaining Forcers have to do their best to hold things together until the team can regroup. The plan for this mod is that we will tell stories starring small numbers of FF'ers facing various baddies, largely those from the first game. Each episode will have one mission from each storyline, and the storylines will run until they are finished, at which point they will be replaced by another. We will hopefully be joined by a few other modders (and perhaps one first timer!) in the subsequent episodes. If you have any interest in taking part in this project, please let us know!
