The top one looks very much like a scenario to me - perhaps the PCs seeing a bunch of the bad guys getting killed by a suicide bomber.. Smiley My favorites of the others are the scene of London, and the subway tunnel encampment.

Lots of good pics.

A place that I have wanted to visit, ever since reading about it on the Narbonics webcomic - The Museum of Questionable Medical Devices (now part of the Minnesota Museum of Science, following the retirement of its founder in 2002).

Off to my Orgone treatment....

The top joins are intended to feed from a backpack - a three part chemical incendiary?

If I hit the lotto I would go to gunsmithing school and start making blasters that use real bullets.   Grin  (As well as build myself a Calico in .45ACP.)

My dad used to be a gunsmith. He built the speargun that was used in Jaws.

Ummm... ow? Just, ow?

I seem to recall there being sixteenth and seventeenth century myths about something like that, only all natural.

The Auld Grump, mixed feelings, but leaning towards 'serves them right'. As for a source of inspiration, guess why the teams Contact is in the hospital.... I think Delta Green with an admixture of Tcho Tcho to widen it out.

I get inspiration from the Hitman video games, at least now I do. The guy goes in, kills his targets and gets out. If you play the game Silent Assassin style, that is how I'm rolling my current character, Intruder/Cleaner. Faceman would be more accurate but I dislike faceman as a starting class.

Since most the people I play with are gun happy, I like to try a more subtle approach. After watching an episode of chuck where they hide in an Out of Order toilet in the men's room, I decided at one point I would use laxatives in a target's drink and use Out of Order signs to place him in the spot I want him. On a toilet with five pounds of C4 strapped to the bottom of it. Evil
