My friend is getting married fairly soon and I'm supposed to come up with a good role playing adventure for a group of four players for his bachelor party. I could really use some help coming up with ideas, especially since I am not only a fairly new GM, but our game will needs to run no longer than 3 hours and playable while consuming adult beverages. The players all have level 3 characters (the Rogue Trader, Navigator, Seneschal, and a Void Master), but I may just give them characters to play for the one shot. These guys aren't power levelers and are actually quite slow in getting through areas. I'd prefer to keep the RP light hearted and wedding themed. Any and all ideas would be appreciated!

Bride apparently kidnapped by a heartbroken ex-beau, Keeping the piece between assorted branches of the family, hurriedly replacing the amasec supplies because the cargo lifters broke down down on the planet, explaining human breeding customs to a Xenos, etc.

The Roast escapes from the kitchens and has to be pursued through the corridors?

I actually pencilled out (never used) a wedding themes scenario. It'd need fairly high level characters to run, but was basically an escalation of the fight over Lucins Breath, where the players had to kinap Aspyce Chorda and Calligos Winterscale and force them to mary whilst their fleets were in battle over the planet below. It contained kinapping major players (NPCs) to act as witnesses. Quite Space Opera. Lots of consequences.

I really like that idea MDMann! definitely going to use it. However, since they are low level and haven't met those NPCs (yet- they'll meet them in later campaigns) the names will change, and the motivation for kidnapping and forcing the marriage will probably be something more mercantile than a space battle (shipping rights I'm thinking). I think also there will be a subplot of an "undercooked" xenos escaping its cage and attempting to hunt down the wedding party one by one (thanks DrHoz!).

3h with adult beverages?

Make it short and sweet. You have time for one fight and maybe two scenes, unless you use heavy rail rolling tactics!

cheers
