Hey there, once again fellow Wastelanders…

Anyone who’s be living on this planet Earth for a good few years will know that there are people out there who like to mooch off others and live off their backs- whether that be in a “ahh… someone else e’ll do it” or a “I’ll be taking that!” way. Problem is, there’s a lot of these moochers of our hard work and efforts and then the rewards we reap off putting the blood, sweat and tears into making them. Even more so, a fair few of them use violent methods to get what they want, even though they don’t deserve them. So, just put that into the perspective of the Wasteland and the fact that there’ll be no laws holding them back from doing what they want and becomes… discouraging.

Heh heh- not pretty, eh?

Right, back on to the main article. So far, we’ve covered the gradual build-up of power that the Military in the Wasteland may and will accumulate over time – about a few weeks to several months – and that they are the most well-equipped and supplied faction that will be present in the Wastes for some time. What we didn’t cover is what would happen once the Military started to exert that power. Let’s have a bit of “informed speculation” then, shall we?

Hey there, fellow Wastelanders…

Well, this is the first “proper” post on this here blog, but fortunately today, it’s not going to be about something boring or nondescript. No, this article will touch upon an important thing to be aware of when you’re trying to survive in the Wasteland, whether a few days after the bombs drop or going on several years after the attacks; there’s one ultimate faction in the heat and motion of the whole post-apocolyptic world. And that faction is…
