So I've had an idea for a game that is either genius or just terrible.
The game would be D&D 3.5e, using the old "Testament" setting supplement from Green Ronin (the name is a good indicator of what that's all about). The game would be set in the ancient city of Babel, and surround the Tower.
Said tower being a Space Elevator constructed by a significantly more advanced alien species, who rule humanity through their agents the Nephilim. The PCs would be cast in the role of rebels attempting to bring down the Tower, and thus end the reign of this alien race.
Of course, one fairly significant issue with that premise is that it is essentially jusr "Stargate" - replace ancient Egypt with Babylon, the Pyramids with the Tower, and Ra with Goliath, and you've got much the same thing.
On the other hand, it's an interesting premise. And "Stargate" was of course set long after the rebellion, rather than casting the PCs as the rebels themselves.
Well... it's an interesting thought, if nothing else.
