Treasure Island Comments:
Great idea. I like the idea of Mad Jake's Island.
I like the booby traps. I might expand these further though with some additional random 'unseen' traps (i.e. no markers) set off by trip wires and so on. You could rule these on an 'If you run roll d6, on a 1 something happens = trip wire, covered pit, falling debris, etc. In the Necro expansions you can get dogs and I like the idea of Mad Jake having a couple of dogs with him - after all he is up against TWO gangs!
I think the restrictions when picking up the loot are a bit too heavy, it's relatively small stuff, the gang would come prepared with shoulder stuff bags or whatever, suggest you use rules as per standard Scavenger scenario, so you can carry more than one loot and you can still shoot... Of course if there was 1 or two pieces of special heavy loot, you can see it locked in a heavy box/safe but can't get it open there and then, then one man can slowly drag (1/2 speed?), or two can carry, then that's a different idea again...
