The morning dawned clear and mild across the L.A. basin, and for yet another day America was the colossus that stood astride the world...tall sleek buildings, streets bustling with shiny new cars, military waiting around the world for orders. Trillions of dollars moving like blood through the arteries of banks, fiber-optic networks, cash registers. Just another day in the life.
And as good a day as any for it to all come crashing down.
It was a story that began on the morning news with grainy, jerky pictures of two oil tankers ablaze...and a President who reassured the people all was well with the world while at the same time moving himself and his staff to an undisclosed, secure location.

This is a modern game that will feature normal, everyday characters. The game will include a touch of sci-fi...but only a touch. There will be no death-rays, no warp drives. The focus will be on mystery-solving, intrigue...and raw survival before, during, and after things fall apart. For the world of the city was rough enough before civilization fell (which is when the game starts). It gets rougher still.
