4 hours MAX run time one-shot operations? Particularly shotgun scenarios?
My apologies in advance as I have searched the subreddit multiple times, but I feel I need more specific advice.
I need a one-shot scenario to run for my table, as we will be down a player and need something to finish in a single session while the player is gone. We typically play for around three hours, but I could probably push it to four hours if necessary. I just need help because there's a ton of shotgun scenarios out there if I'm going to look at those, and I have been but it's a lot. Not sure how many official scenarios are actually one-shot-able.
A lot of the recommendations I've seen are typically Music from a Darkened Room (I don't think this is doable in even four hours), Lover in the Ice (same thing), something from Control Group (the one I'm most familiar with is Sick Again and that's definitely at least two sessions imo), or Last Things Last (I've played and ran this thing so many times, if I have to do it again I will go insane). I've also ran Puppet Shows & Shadow Plays before and that took two sessions. PX Poker Night does not appeal to me, and neither does 'The Button' shotgun.
I'm considering shotgun scenario 'Burner', but not sure if it will really hit right with my group. 'Metamorphosis' might be good but I kind of want to save it in case I get to properly run a Delta Green campaign for this group. Can anyone think of any other interesting, short scenarios or published operations and can provide a brief sentence about what it's about so I can take a look?
One of the players was in my group when I ran The Night Floors, and one of the players had played LTL with me when I was a player before. The other two have not played Delta Green but we play CoC together.
