One of my favorite old movies is Operation Petticoat. So I was watching it today with hubby and I began wondering could it be reworked into SF adventure...<div><br /></div><div>Elements would be 1 a military ship that can land on planets... the Star Tiger.</div><div><br /></div><div>Ship gets attacked at port on planet or space but a good chunk of crew survives, but fleet considers it a loss, except for crew which must get it fixed enough in 2 weeks to leave port or abandon it & station, part of crew transferred to another war ship, PCs are the folks around the station/port no one wants on their ship... lol. Have native Voodoo folks bless ship if on land.</div><div><br /></div><div>PCs through hook & crook must get the shopping list for repair of the ship.</div><div><br /></div><div>Get ship off world/off station an jumped away, escaping attacking fleet.</div><div><br /></div><div>Ship gets to small outpost, effect more repairs, send PCs to check out out post, discover survivors from attack, take them on board.</div><div><br /></div><div>Drop out of void chance to strike enemy cargo ship. Jump away again.</div><div><br /></div><div>Jump to next base, still need tons of stuff, try to get rid of troublesome passengers... epic fail, hook & crook some more, complete with stealing some sort of critter for dinner, and protective painting the ship's hull with a hot florescent color not military as that is what is left for base the military color never get's applied because of... full on invasion requires more passengers taken on, kids & prego women, livestock for babies! Oh ships radio still broken can hear can't broadcast...</div><div><br /></div><div>Sathar Sussy broadcasts messages to ship surrender, next time drop out of void friendly ships, but they think your ship is a Sathar trick, more running and escaping, PCs must figure out a way to signal friendly ships successfully or escape.</div><div><br /></div><div>The goal make successful contact with friendly forces and get to a safe harbor.</div><div><br /></div><div>Anyhow just an idea from a great old film, and it could be a great challenge for players as it is a lot of breaking & entry, hustling, stealing, vehicle stealing, vehicle chases and evasion and jerry rigging things to make it all happen.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>
