Oct 19, 2010 8:56:54 So I am trying to work out a campaign idea. I am stealing the idea that floated around about having a community that sends their children for a test of adulthood into a facility to get 'key cards' and/or omega tech.

I am thinking the facility that I want them to break into is the Cheyenne Mountain NORAD facility. However, I only have their website and google maps to garner information about it. I was just curious what populace is closest to the actual entrance to the mountain facility. That way I could build the society on the ourskirts of it.

Does anyone out there know any information about it or where I could find it?

Oct 19, 2010 9:38:00 I can concur, living in Colorado.

Its next the Colorado Springs & the Air Force Academy (another great offering for adulthood test).
Fort Carson isn't too far either.

Yeah, Wikipedia can be a decent starting point:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheyenne_Mountain

Also, watch the old early-80s movie WarGames!

From their website it claims to be close to Peterson AFB. So I was curious where the 'tunnel entrance' that you see in just about every movie or picture is in relationship to Colorado Springs proper or more specifically Peterson AFB.
