Super! Damit alles zügig geht, wäre es schön, wenn ihr euch schon mal Gedanken macht, welchen Backdrop ihr gerne spielen wollt. Es gibt folgende Core Backdrops:
The Outpost The story of the first Martian outpost. After communications with Earth have been cut off, they fight to survive on the Red Planet.
The Compound A group has barricaded itself against a world they can no longer take part in. The year is 1982 and in their solitude, they will create a new Utopian home.
Sing The Earth Electric Left behind for one final mission before humanity abandoned Earth, a misfit crew of machines pursue their ultimate duty.
Thieves’ Cant Scoundrels and thieves must develop a way to communicate with each other in public without betraying their real intentions.
Es wird empfohlen, beim ersten Mal ein einfaches Backdrop wie The Outpost zu nehmen. Am Ende sollte es aber etwas sein, womit wir alle Spass haben. Wenn euch also ein anderer besser gefällt, ist das auch völlig in Ordnung.
Neben diesen Core Backdrops gibt es auch noch ganz viele Contributed Backdrops, von denen einige sehr cool klingen.
