Excellent! Supportting you FLGS, your favorite RPG publisher, and gaming in 
general is always a plus!

Do the PCs have to be recruited by the OSI?
Overtly, I mean. Can they be sent in as just a crack squad with a cover 
mission (which they beleive is the whole point) and maybe just a few players 
actually knowing the real mission? I would just be worried that being so 
up-front about the nature of Weird Wars would affect the suspense and drama 
of players discovering that they are dealing with "something else" instead 
of a new weapon begin tested, or whathaveyou.

Or are you posting this as a GM-level knowledge/spoiler for the benefit of 
list commentary?
