Welcome to the World of Covert Operations!
 Introduction - Operation Dead Drop
"The unthinkable has happened�. You have 24 hours to save the world."
The Countdown Series presents intense, high drama missions with the urgency of the show "24" and the creativity of a Bond movie. Each Countdown Mission Pack presents players with action-oriented, focused adventures that will plunge their characters into "catch your breath" style gaming. Countdown Missions are designed for use with d20 Modern.
Operation Dead Drop:
As the mission begins, Saddam Hussein has announced to the world that the Republic of Iraq is now a nuclear power. Unless the United Nations drops all sanctions against his country, Israel exits completely all land claimed by the Palestinian people, and the United States ceases all aggression against the Iraqi Republic, in 24 hours a nuclear tipped Taep'o-dong 1 (TD-1) missile, acquired from North Korea, will be launched at Tel-Aviv, Israel. To further safeguard his interests, Hussein has taken a group of foreign nationals hostage, including 5 American citizens.
In this Mission Pack�, PCs take the role of Delta Force soldiers sent into Iraq to complete a two-fold operation:
1. Rescue all hostages, and kill all Iraqi personnel.
2. Assassinate Saddam Hussein and thereby prevent him from launching the missile.
The hostages are being held at a secret detention facility near the city of Ar Rutbah in western Iraq. Once the hostages are rescued, the PCs must travel to the Abu Ghurayb Presidential Palace, south of Baghdad, and assassinate Saddam Hussein, the Iraqi dictator.
Both missions must be completed within 24 hours or the missile will launch. If Saddam gets word of the hostage rescue, the missile will launch. Israel has also informed the Bush Administration that if Iraq launches, Israel will respond in kind.
This Mission Pack� is a challenging adventure for use with D20 Modern. Players must pit all their skills and wits against the Butcher of Baghdad in a desperate attempt to save the world.
