Themes: war crimes, esprit de corps, proving yourself

The rookie in the group has a lot to prove - and the fact they played a key role in everyone else surviving the ambush does not suffice yet. Vanilla really, really wants to stick with the team but they are also the only one who still has a possibility to swallow their pride and go back to a normal civilian life.

The Hideout (1st half)

The Wild Pines convoy was not supposed to go through this part of town. However, due to a demonstration, they had to reroute and pass through the La Cage. What was probably supposed to be a sweet jackpot of corporate cash, meds or weapons turned out to be a nightmare for everybody involved in the sorry affair. Hard to say what actually happened, but what is clear is that the convoy started firing back with automatic weapons…and in the end, survivors of the combat had to move out and secure one of the empty rooms as their temporary headquarters. These well-armed mercenaries are now trying to find their footing and get to safety. However, their common past is much more difficult than they would like.

 

All characters in the group will leave the game after the first half. The players will return as one of the RCM group characters. The Hideout game is very specific, and its design centers around waiting, slow tension, claustrophobic relationships, and boredom.

Petanque Club

The annual Pétanque Club Final is one of the most-hyped events of the La Cage calendar! Every year, Team Blue and Team Red go head-to-head in… well, what is honestly a pretty chill match complete with good-natured competition, electing the next Club President, and a few drinks in the sunshine. Even though this year’s teams seem to be divided along slightly political lines, there’s no reason to think their wholesome friendships cannot withstand mild disagreements as they have in previous years.
