Over at The Core Mechanic, there is an interesting series about a way to incorporate war into a campaign (in this case, it’s Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition) using skill challenges. I find this rather fascinating, as it adds a cool element to the roleplaying atmosphere. As of this writing, there are four parts.
This has got me thinking about a campaign that I want to run, and seeing how well it would translate into other tabletop games, such as a modified Shadowrun 3rd Edition (there are a few rules we don’t like, but we’ll not cover that here). There are so many possibilities. Being that it is centered around skill challenges, it would work perfectly into Shadowrun, and I imagine possibly even White Wolf games (though I have only played them once, a long time ago, so I really have no bearing on that).
When I have some progress, I’ll post about doing it the Shadowrun way.

Thanks for the bump! I think all in all the series will probably the longest to visit my blog… i’m estimating anywhere from 7 to 10 parts once it is done.
