Because the WW3 campaign represents early TL9 equipment, there are a few minor differences in the details. Please refer to this document rather than GURPS Ultra-Tech in any case where descriptions conflict. Note the changes, especially the night vision, and the reduced DR on the clamshell. The combined armor weighs 30lbs when worn as a complete suit.

This roster includes both active PC’s and NPC’s. Some of the NPC’s are PC’s of inactive players, and are available to fill in gaps in the table of organization if required by the dictates of the story. If not required, it is assumed that they are in a separate unit from the active players.
The Federal base in Los Angeles is referred to as “Fire Base Hollywood”. It is located on Mount Lee, within a hundred yards of the famous Hollywood sign. This base maintains a liaison with the “Beverly Hills Mafia”, providing protection in exchange for supplies. The position allows commanding views of LA and the Valley, as well as secure LOS commo links to the San Joaquin Valley.
After an 18 month hiatus, the World War Three campaign returns.
This rather large map illustrates the information detailed in a previous article about the southwestern states. Areas shaded in red are occupied by elements of the Mexican military by 2022.

Per Kevin Blouin: I scrounged up a couple pics from the LA cult music scene. “The Lord”, leader of “Society 1″ could qualify…..
Per Scott McKinlay: Kevin found these pics for Rayne. I like them! Consider them official for his early Satanic phase.

Ballard is grateful for any assistance with the intel project, and fobs that off on Chloe, knowing that refugee rockers will respond better to a hot hippie chick than to an alcoholic army officer. This frees him up to work harder on the profiling/modeling aspect of things. Your Friendly S-2 offers the following evaluations.
