I recently built a home brew adventure for my group and it went really well and we all had a great time. Recently, my group expressed some interest in learning Shadowrun (5th ed). After spending a week trying to learn the game, I shot the idea down. It was the most miserable experience I've had in a long time trying to learn a game system. That being said I actually like the ideas of Shadowrun, specifically the idea of being runners. the whole game may as well be Heist movie: the game. So, as a result I want to build what would essentially be Heist movie: the Pathfinder game. This is what I'm coming here for.
I have a basic idea so far for setting, game outline and the initial heist, a daring midnight airship robbery for a mcguffin. The party gets betrayed afterwards by the employer. From that point the game would basically be an episodic heist tv show where the party would do various heists while at the same time uncovering why they were betrayed and a way for them to get revenge.
I did this episodic style of story telling in my last game, which was basically a series of adventures loosely based around classic western movies and it did really well. It allowed players to miss sessions without missing out too much on the story.
What I'm looking for help with is basically people to help shoot ideas off of to build the various heists and as well as setting ideas npc character ideas. Thanks in advance.
Ps I'm thinking of gathering a second group of players and doing a side by side game as the investigators who are going after the main party. I haven't really fleshed out the idea at all yet.
