The last Apocalypse Prevention Inc review for now is a free downloadable adventure called Seafood Chowder.
Written by Brennan Bishop, the adventure builds off of the information in the Lochs book for API, as your API Agents find themselves investigating attacks by “fish people” and discover that there is far, far more going on here than meets the eye.
At the risk of spoiling too much, since it is an adventure (albeit one available for free), the agents quickly find themselves embroiled in local aquatic politics, specifically involving a Loch API bureaucrat and a group of enraged Ondine.
The endgame is left very wide open, with the adventure written in such a way as to set up the situation (which has no easy answers to it) and the API Agents get to make the call on how to finish it out. Let's just say that both sides have done some crappy, crappy things...and there is the possibility of bad political fallout regardless of the outcome. It doesn't mean that it's no-win, exactly...just far from clear cut.
No less than five possible solutions are given for resolving the conflict, with the possible long term fallout for each solution laid out as well.
Unless you just really rather hate the aquatic races of API, I give this a strong recommendation. Heck, even if you're not a fan of them, its still worth it as a GM just to get an idea of some of the hairier situations you can involve the agents in.
Also, it is worth noting that if you just have the API corebook, you don't NEED the Lochs sourebook use the adventure, as all the relevant game information is included...though it certainly doesn't hurt, just to give you a broader view of the Loch-Ondine conflict.
