I am trying to hunt down an old senario from GM magazine (must be 15 to 20 years ago).

It was a set in the Battletech universe but ran as an RPG not a board game.

The idea behind it was that the players ran a prisoner of war camp in the run up to and during a planetary invaison.

The players ran the camp and had to deal with many events including: design, shelter, food, policing, up risings, and an increasing numbers of inmates due to the war. Possibly there was a problem with refugees as a result of the invasion but i might be imagining that one.

Does this ring any bells with anyone?

I thought i had a copy of the magazine but after a month of hunting i'm starting to give up hope.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I remember it well (there was a nasty twist at the end wasn't there) but also remember that I've thrown out all my copies of GM magazine so can't help here. :(
