    Doing a Pathfinder game filled with Espionage and this playlist helps a lot for doing session notes and conspiracies. I'm messing with my players currently as they have a mission, Operation: Mooneater, to take over Fort Moon, a base that we are going to insert a puppet captain into, however, each operative is also given a secret mission that they cannot tell the others. What the real messy part is that the BBEG of the campaign is actually a counter-spy op that has comprimised their communications and has given one of the players a *different* mission. One of them is to take documents from a warehouse, bind it and give it a secret marker to place it into the dead drop. However, another player is tasked to kill an enemy spy in the village where the dead drop is. Unfortunately, the reality is, the enemy spy is actually an allied spy deep undercover who was designated to pick up the documents from the dead drop, so if she's killed, then the documents can't be recovered, leading to a crisis on the party's hands that one of them technically failed their secret mission

Kidnapping, bad guys with guns, looked into ak barrel waiting for it to take my brains out. Mercenaries, specialist, area searches, deep African forests, gangs, exchange of hostages even playing hide and seek with local intelligence. No car chases though.. sometimes it seems that it was so long ago, it was probably a dream.
