Espionage or paramilitary campaign!

I am looking to start a group for some espionage modern roleplaying. I have 3 different premises. 1) We will play the Classified retro-clone of the venerable James Bond 007 RPG playing the world of the new Daniel Craig movies. This would be only 1-2 people as players. We would take turns as to who gets to play Bond and take turns as to who gets to GM. You can read up on Classified here: Classified RPG review . This selection would emphasize a single to maybe 2 operatives that are extremely broadly skilled taking on solo missions. OR 2) An IMF Mission Impossible style game set in the modern world where each player portrays a specialized skilled operative that is part of a team that works together to pull off missions that are thought to be impossible or extremely difficult in regards to success. Operative selection and skill packages will be of utmost import and the players will really have to work as a team to succeed. This selection would need between 4-6 players for the team. Covert Ops review OR 3) A special forces group of operatives similar to SEAL Team 6 that goes on clandestine missions throughout the world, operating in secret and consisting of operatives from U.S. allied countries.  This would be very similar in concept to Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six.  This campaign would likely be played using the fore-mentioned Covert-Ops RPG. --I will provide all materials necessary for learning whichever game and selection we choose. I will also aid the players in learning the system. Both these systems are intuitive and easy to learn, mimicking the espionage genre beautifully. Day of the week and time will be chosen once we see how many people we get and what their availability is like. Any interest? Which selection do you prefer?
I had one person PM me about this.  Any other interest out there in doing this?
1st option might be interesting. When are you planning to play/run that?
Trying to get everyone's availability first.  What is yours like? We will decide based upon what works for the majority.
Most evenings GMT should work for me, at least till the end of the month.
Hey there. I'm a huge fan of the Rainbow Six series so I'd love to play something akin to Option 3. I'm available on the weekends, pretty much all day, from 9 AM to say 11 PM CST.
Please pay close attention to the game thread.  I am going to try to schedule a meeting soon over Skype for us all to discuss.
Does it have to be skype? Most people use dischord now. Its easyer.
Discord is fine.
Glad to see your back stabzie. My vote is for option 2 as it would allow the most flexibility for players. I would be looking to play either and Agent, Analyist or Special Forces mall ninja (in order of preference). Preferably something that will allow spoken solutions negoatiations etc.
