In short, we play as a company of mercenaries/adventurers in a time of war and crisis. Our services are in demand, though whether we are fighting for profit or survival depends on the setting in question. Players will take control of a single character within a small group of fighters, and as a collective they will decide where to pursue their adventures and how to react to the developments as they unfold. I will propose a series of scenarios below, but of course players are free to suggest their own or expand on existing ones. These games will be run as a one-thread or a few-thread games, with a much less rule-intensive experience than our usual forum games that will mainly be focused on rp'ing and having fun but still with an element of chance and risk involved.
{Warhammer Fantasy: The End Times}
The world is ending, and our troubles are just beginning. Greenskins rampage from the south, Beastmen pour forth from the forests, and Rat-Men swarm the world from deep below us. In the north, the Ruinous Powers ready their final assault on a crumbling world.
Players will be able to take up the character of a mercenary adventurer from most of the races in the Warhammer World; Humans, Dwarfs, Elves, Ogres, Vampires and even Orcs are not out of the question.
We have a few options here. A Vermintide-like scenario in which we are in the Empire as it is being swarmed by the Skaven Under-Empire. Alternatively, a sojourn eastwards into the Darklands, or even part of an expedition into the jungles of Lustria or deserts of Araby.

{The Witcher}
We are a Free Company fighting in the Northern Wars, one of the many mercenary groups employed by both sides to kill and despoil. Who we fight for is in our own hands. We play as Men, Dwarves, Elves, and other nonhumans and mutants - one or two witchers could even be feasible. It will likely be set in the war with Nilfgaard or in a smaller scale conflict like the wars over the Pontar Valley.

{Historical}
We play as band of mercenaries or free riders in either medieval France or Italy, accepting contracts on behalf of the city states or pillaging a lawless and divided kingdom for profit.
Alternatively, a band of mercenaries in antiquity, fighting for one of the city states of Greece or the Mediterranean powers of Carthage or Rome. Lots of various scenarios to explore here.
