HMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm. . . .how about these DAWGIE thoughts, CC?
a. UN/NATO humanitarian mission to some horror wracked area of the world (disease/famine/genocide/civil war).
b. independent _or_corporate_or government oil/gas exploration team _or drilling operation in remote area.
c. independent _or_corporate_or government gold, diamond, fissionables prospecting team or mining operation in a remote area.
d. highway_or_railway route survey team moving into/through a little known area of the interior. could also be actual_construction teams_moving into the area.
e. foreign contractors hired to build one _or_more advanced civil or military airfields deep in the little known interior for the local government.
f. independent_or_corporate_or government survey team hired to chart unknown interior waterways.
g. independent _or_museum_or_university_or_corporate_or government sponsored/approved scientific/medical expedition dispatched into the back of beyond.
h. official rescue/recovery mission dispatched into a little known area of the interior to locate a downed aircraft. said aircraft can be a civilian air/cargo flight, corporate logistics/re-supply flight lost due to mechanical failure, sabotage, terrorist action, bad weather, etc.
i. secret drug cartel expedition sent into the interior to locate/recover the cargo of a crashed smuggler's plane to cartel control. aircraft was lost due similiar circumstances as outline above. complications could include a rival cartel out to recover the goodies for their own use _or some independents hoping to make their own fortune_or_ the forces of law/order destroy same and eliminate cartel expedition!
j. the (corrupt) minster of internal security forces and his (corrupt) para-military henchmen might also be involved in an attempted locate/recover operation under the guise of an official government operation.
k. mercenary_or_government strike forces searching for insurgent base camps deep inside the largely unknown interior. insurgents retreating deeper into the interior under heavy presure from government forces.
l. USG/NATO/OTHER GOVERNMENT covert mission to recover data from a downed manned_or_drone surveillance aircraft.
m. secret mission to recover data_or_specimens from a downed spy/research satellite/manned space mission before_a rival power does same.
n. covert mission dispatched to locate/rescue survivors and retrieve data from a_covert_ deep space misson that went down (for wotever reason!) into the little known interior.
o. private_or_university_or_government_or corporate expedition organized to investigate reports of cryptozoic animals in the interior.
p. quest for a legendary lost treasure ("KING SOLOMAN'S MINES", "CITY OF OPAR", "ROMANCING THE STONE", etc).
q. a confirmed alien spacecraft has been shot down by one of the major powers of the world and has crashed into the interior of this little known hell-hole. the black ops race is on between world powers to locate the wreck/rescue any alien survivors/recover any/all alien tech ("BAMBOO SAUCER" revisted?).
r. allegedly abandoned NASA/USSR tracking station built in the 1960s is really being used to support government black ops research involving extremely_ dangerous_ ETA lifeforms recovered from a downed spacecraft.
s. expedition into the interior to survey and begin construction of a black ops research facility.
just some thoughts!
