Hello folks, would you help me out a bit? Are there any scenarios/missions out there written for the 6e Cutting Black Detroit bug outbreak storyline? Where should I look?
If nothing worked, let's think!

Not currently, but 30 Nights does touch a bit on it. It's set in Toronto, though, which is a bit further east. It's more focused on the Blackout than anything else.

Cutting Black was a bit frustrating for telling us about all the exciting things happening, but not inviting us to take part in most of those events.  As FastJack says they did bring out 30 Nights, set during the blackout in Toronto, but nothing about Detroit dealing with the bugs, investigations of the disappearance of 3 Corp, the NAN seizures of territory, the Quebec invasion and fall back, etc.

I will say that later 6e plot books have been much better at translating into game play.

(the French version of Cutting Black added some adventures, but IIRC they were prequels to Detroit, to introduce enough of what was happening in Ares that Cutting Black would make more sense when it became news).

Indeed, for the French version we've included a way to bring in French characters to Toronto ( but that hook could be modified for other cities) and some kind of thread between the adventures.

Btw, I was wondering from a few years back, where is Platinum Trollgirls in Detroit supposed to be located.  Did whoever that came up with it as a writer have an inspiration, heh, ala "I know this strip club location in real life, lets put it over here." kind of thing, or something else?  /checks map, if its somewhere Downtown was maybe Legends Strip club the inspiration?

edit: woop nevermind...

looking in the book again, where deadline is saying "basically everything within 3/4th a kilometer of (Ares Tower) is leveled, makes my idea of "Legends Strip club" as inspiration a no go...it's in the destruction zone.  Too close to the Ares Tower it would seem.
