We actauly planed planed a campaign based on the movie Stargate.
We figured that instead of ending up with the USAF the Gate went to
the aparent homeland of the archologist(and yours truly), Norway.
There it was rediscovered in 2058, and a team from Recon
Squadron,1st(No)Air Cavalry (That was us) where sent through to
investigate. Unfortunately the campaign faded as we lacked players and
time to get started. It would undoubtedly been a good high power
campaign if it had started..
