Thank you.
I wonder what it says about me that this kind of thing seems almost totally normal?

You know, I should try to run this.  I wonder if anyone here would be interested?  Of course, it'd be kinda hard to ask for design help without too many spoilers.
Is there a proceedure for that, or a way to gauge interest, or do I have to bite the bullet and create a game?

I can see doing this as a three or four part mini-campaign/module.
I do worry about railroading too much for this kinda thing.  And having opportunities for all character types.
A comment and a question.
Im a geology major.  Dinosours are cool... But there are plenty of other creepy nasty things in the pile of long extinct creatures to use...  Magically oxygenated Giant anthropoids anyone?
So, would a Dino campaign mean that "Chaos Theory" was a street skill then?

Cambrian Park, full of Awakened Trilobites!  Can't stop here, this is Trilobite country.  As for vehicular combat, it is the Seventies, why not Interstate 76?

Hmm...so, the Runners are hired to extract/rescue someone from the park, and/or steal data, and/or eliminate witnesses, and/or commit sabotage...what other activities go down there?

Mm, right, a good secondary objective.  What are your thoughts on in media res?

I like it.  Ive wanted to do it my self, but you need the right kind of group for it.  I always figured I would bribe them with significant karma for it.
