Saw a discussion on reddit today and thought it might be interesting. Name the system, media influences, and basic plot ideas. Mine is: Over The Edge, Film Noir: Four friends in 1935 are involved in a plane crash in the desert and end up in Al Amarja. Stuck without papers or passports, the group is forced to take piece work from the criminal element to survive. A cross between The Maltese Falcon, Naked Lunch, The Lost Weekend, and Sullivan's Travels.

One thing that has been kicking around my mind for a while is a sandbox campaign where the political structure of the land is based on the one used by the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Unsure what system I'd use since this is just a vague idea at the moment. Currently in 3 campaigns, running 2, so I'm mostly keeping it in the back of my mind.

What's so exciting about the Polish- Lithuanian Commonwealth? Must be cool if you want to base a campaign on it
