Something's brewing in the mountains, and the family owners of Planket's, which mostly grows poppy and marijuana for the medical industry, are worried. So worried that they're willing to hire mercenaries to protect their farm from whatever's coming their way. PCs who are hired get 300 a day, and any day they have to actually work (keep people out, get caught up in a firefight, get shot, whatever) they get hazard pay of an additional 1000 for that day. The contract specifically says that anyone who tries to get hazard pay fraudulently will have all pay revoked and any relevant charges will be pressed.
There is someone trying to take what the Plankets have made: an anarcho-commune further uphill made up of mostly ex soldiers and survivalists has had their eye on the farm for some time, both for its crop and the land itself. They had planned on offering the Plankets a deal of including them in the commune, and giving them a share of the commune's labours, in exchange for a share of the farm, but that offer was shot down due to the commune's quasi-legal nature. Now their leader, Dallas Groom, has decided that it's about time the commune shows the locals, and the government, that they're serious about taking their own slice of the state.
Aside from the PCs there about a half-dozen other mercenaries working for the Plankets, plus the family itself, and the commune has around thirty able-bodied fighters.
