“In October 1962 the Americans dropped depth charges in international waters to force the Russian submarine B-59 to surface during the Cuban Missile Crisis. With no communications from Moscow, and standing orders to open fire if attacked, Captain Valentin Savitsky launched the subs 10 kiloton warhead upon Orlando, Florida causing damage on par to Hiroshima some twenty years earlier.
The Americans launched on Cuba and the Soviet Union; the Russians retaliating which triggered essentially the end of the world. The plumes of radioactive smoke singed the atmosphere which in turn brought a horrific acid rain that left few countries untouched.
This is the world, or what’s left of it…”

Welcome to Hellworld
Its Mad Max meets Waterworld meets Escape From L.A meets Fallout. Gangs roaming the open wastelands with pockets of civilisation, or what passes for it. Bullets and technology are prized but nothing more prized than fresh water. Survival is the name of the game.
As the map shows the areas in red were hit with one if not more nuclear strikes. Entering these areas without a proper radiation suit, which is as rare as rocking horse poo, and you’ll die within a month due to the toxicity the closer you get to ground zero. The cities are run by warlords and those who took charge, by fortune or committee, in the aftermath. Some a quite reasonable like Willow Creek and Goldsboro, and some are run by tyrants and psychopaths like the Principality of Savannah and Fresnotown.
There are rumours of a massive fresh water reservoir in Kansas, just like there are rumours of a functioning munitions on an abandoned army base in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Also there seems to be someone called ‘The Commander-In-Chief’ trying to re-establish the United States headquartered somewhere in Albany, New York.
It’s a cruel, nasty, dog-eat-dog world but it’s home. Primarily (as the map suggests) its set in the USA but if you want to see other parts of the world because you want to do a Japanese based story, we can probably accommodate.
If you want to come play there’s some rules, conditions, hurdles and such but there’s the pitch.
