Has anyone considered the rules for creating groups and bases in PRIMEVAL? I quite like them and have been fond of them since the playtest.
Anyone tried to use them for canon Doctor Who groups like UNIT or Torchwood?

I highly recommend that any DWAITAS GM go and buy this right now because it’s a box of harvestable resources for the game. |

Mind giving examples of groups you have made for DW:AITAS using the PRIMEVAL rules? Or would they be SPOILERS?

I'm running a new campaign using the X Doctor (an unspecified future incarnation) and there is a small UNIT section present with some regularity. so: UNIT SECTION HQTraits:Armoury, Code (Military Chain of Command), Medic, Minions (x5)*, Official Sanction (The UN), Secure Base, Vehicle Pool, Wealthy. *Minions: 3x Squads of Soldiers, 1x Technicians, 1x Support Staff (Admin, catering etc.)

Cool I'm assuming you didnt worry about point cost? When considering UNIT, I was coming up with way too many Good traits and not enough Bad for it to balance out. |

The UNIT book comes with a section on designing bases.

Personally, I really like using the Threat rules from Primeval for non sentient creatures in DWAiTS.
