Rules
1.- everything that FASA had write about Aztlan is true, so far it must
be respected. I try to tell you that instead of argue or correct what
ever FASA had said, you will try to justify why they said it.
2:- The writes that you send to be part of the NAG to A must have
certain historical, cultural o sociological background. We must try to
give it a RL base.
3.-Our primary object is to write in the holes that FASA left, at the
same time give a Latino flavor to the Aztlan that FASA made.
I will like to see this like a multipeople project. I'm sure that
different opinions will rise about the various subjects that we are
going to touch and some of the opinions are going to be opposed to each
other. So I propose a method to resolve conflicts.
Let's vote. I will count the votes this way: 1.5 to the "nationals" 1
vote to the "Foreigners" according with the rules.
The reason behind this is that the "Aztlaners" of the list had a day a
day contct with our view of the world. I put a " mark in national and
foreigner because an ID in archeology with a degree in Aztec or Maya
culture, will count as a "national" no matter his/her nationality is.
So he/she will have 1.5 votes.
Before vote, the arguments must be constant based in rules 1 and 2.
If you don't have specific vote an argument, I will take it as an
abstention. If we face a even situation, I will throw a coin :- )

The reason for this; to give certain unification to Aztlan, so that mean
everybody works in the same channel and at the same time. And give a
fast cut to arguments that in other case can last forever.
The goal is that when we have every idea, write, story, study, etc..
give this a sourcebook FASA style and make it a Web file (NERPS)

The name (for the moment ) is Neo Anarquis guide to Aztlan

Well I thing this is everything. Fell free to mail me any question,
complain, comment etc.. you have

Having also had a look at your 'list of holes' i don't think there is
anything i can do myself to help, i have little enought spare time
these days.

However best of luck at waking up some interest, as you note there is
a LOT of missing back plot in Aztlan, and for those who feel like
trying to make things interesting for runner useage i can think of a
few things that have happened fairly recently in FASA's campain
timeline that may make Atzlan 'interesting'.

It helps if you have read the Dragon Heart Trilogy, but courtesy
certain evernts there should be quite a power vacumn left behind in
the 'lets invite the Tizimme (ie Horrors) to a great big party'
movement in Aztlan after some folks dropped a few spanners in the
works. (i can go into detail but thats spoilers ref 3 novels). this
opens up the options to stress the corporate side of Aztlan,
infighting between Magic/'Black' (Tizimme summoning fanatics, the
more murderous end of 'blood' mages) Magic/Corporate factions in
Atzlan/Aztechnology.
And of course the fact that such events give Texas and the Amazionian
folks just the excuse they wanted to bang some Azzie heads together
(and if you want to avoid a war Runners are the most deniable of
'terrorists' for Texas at least to use).

Unfortunately i don't rate your hopes of waking up NERPS, but over
one of the 'pet' organisations of big time badguys liked by GM's you
never know :)
