Welcome to your apocalypse!

It’s been almost 400 years since Earth

endured its first Nuclear War. Once looked
up to as the world’s leading country, with
its prosperous economy and vast globe-
spanning military might, America suffered
the brunt of the onslaught of nuclear
missile attacks, turning the empire into a
smoldering, unrecognizable wasteland of
its former glory.

In the wake of this Nuclear War and the

Nuclear Winter that followed, humanity
somehow found a way to survive through
these dark times. Everyday people, went
underground in caves and caverns to avoid
the radiation. They banded together,
forming small communities, sharing skills,
working toward goals of survival. Each of
these clusters of people, thought they were
the last survivors of human race, but they
were wrong.

In pre-war built underground Bunkers all

across the United States, hundreds of
thousands of military personnel, politicians,
scientists, mechanics, computer & robotics
experts, engineers, and the ultra-wealthy
and elite, rode out the War and Winter in
relative comfort and safety. During which
time they established the “New American
Allegiance”, a new world power who’s
mission it became to set about rebuilding
civilization, and specifically, America back
to its former glory, making it safe for all
mankind, and ensuring no other world
powers or other threats rose to challenge
them.
And lastly, there were those who suffered
the most, the surface dwellers, now called
Nuke Children. They were those who
stayed above ground, whose bodies were
burned and ravaged by radiation and
tortured by the freezing temperatures of
Nuclear Winter. Over time, their bodies
were altered, down to the molecular level.
Some disfigured and mutated into
something unrecognizable as human.
While others developed Psyched or
Magical abilities.
Once the radiation levels had subsided and
it was safe to do so, the New American
Allegiance, left their bunkers for the
surface. What they found, terrified them.
The landscape was almost unrecognizable.
Entire large cities, were wiped off the map.
Some buildings from smaller cities still
existed, but stood crumbling and
abandoned, burnt out husks of their former
glory. Roads and Highways, damaged in
the war, then left to the elements, were
slowly being reclaimed by nature, making
travel slow and difficult. And worst of all,
the land was overrun with mutant animals,
some of them giant, all hungry. These
mutants, were often unidentifiable to any
species that existed before the war.

►Keep It Simple!
PLAY: Players describe what their
characters do. The GM advises when their
action is impossible, demands a cost or
extra steps, or presents a risk. Players can
revise plans before committing actions that
have high risk. Player’s only need to roll to
avoid risk.
GMs, always, explain the risks of action
upfront, especially if the player is risking
death. Never surprise the player with a
failed roll with the consequence of a dead
character.
Complicated actions, may require, multiple
risk rolls to determine the outcome. You
may say, I run up and punch the big bad in
the face, which the GM may meet with,
Okay, but you have to get through his
bodyguards, first!
Always talk through complicated situations, hide. Simply narrate how the item gets
and give the players chances to revise
their plans, especially when death is the
risk. Also, remember to keep it moving,
keeping the action and pressure on, and
most of all, MAKE IT FUN!
ROLLING: Roll a skill die — d6 by default, to heal. When sustaining an injury, roll a
higher with a relevant skill, or d4 if
hindered by injury, load or circumstances.
If helped by circumstances, roll an extra d6
choosing the higher number rolled; if
helped by an ally, they roll their skill die,
also, and share the risk. Take the highest
die.
Roll Outcomes
1–2 Disaster.
Suffer the full risk. GM decides if
you succeed at all. If risking
death, you die on a roll of a 1.
3–4 Setback.
A lesser consequence or partial
success. If risking death, you’re
injured.
5+ Success.
The higher the roll, the better.
Example: A Newmerican Guard catches
you attempting to break in to one of their
military supply’s warehouses. He orders
you to drop your weapon and surrender.
You choose to run, instead. Make a roll.
You use your “Escape” skill, so instead of
the default d6, you roll d8.
Unfortunately, you roll a 2, Disaster! The
Guard’s aim was true. He shoots, hitting
you directly in your back as you attempt to
flee. Luckily, you are wearing Body Armor.
You use Defense to sacrifice your armor,
to save you from injury or worse, but now
you have nothing left to protect you from
damage. Hopefully his next shot, won’t be
on target!
DEFENSE: Defense can save you from
sustaining injuries or death by sacrificing
gear. Defensive items like Body Armor,
are no brainers, but any item can be
sacrificed, using Defense, to save your
destroyed, saving you from injury, instead
turning the situation into a brief hindrance.
Broken gear is useless until repaired.
HARM: Characters can and will die.
Injuries take time and/or medical attention

1 Catastrophic Injury

2 Severe Injury

4 Minor Injury

JP Industries is looking to expand its

current selection of Hovertanks &

The first of these new Power Armors are
codenamed “Gladiator”.

For the Gladiator Power Armor, JP

Industries have created several
revolutionary advancements in technology
making their Gladiator armor lighter and
more agile than any of the Power Armors
manufactured and in use by the NAA.

When the news of these advancements

reached the NAA, they sent a small but

Griffin, aka Punisher, to acquire the armor
and bring it to The State for examination
and reverse-engineering.

Piloting a Grasshopper armor, Captain

Griffin, is accompanied by a squad of 4 Full
NAA Cyborgs. They were successfully
able to recover the Gladiator from JP
Industries and are now making the long,
slow journey back from Lake Geneva to
The State.

JP Industries wants this armor back, no

matter the cost. They have approached
your crew and can provide you the route
Griffin and squad are most-likely to take to
The State.

Now it’s up to you. The job is going to be

tough, with a high chance of failure, but the
reward, if successful, will be great. The
only question is: Are you brave enough, or
stupid enough, to attempt this?
