>yep, so they're badn's.>yes. Mr Termelon. >an howbout that feller you said? Mike. What's he doin'?>mike was a scout of ours. He made maps and kept us informed of our forward prospects. He was looking for some industrial equipment when he went missing last Thursday. Last we spoke he was going East, looking for a route past the Airport to one of the outlying industrial centers along the tollway. You may notice that the roads are thoroughly blocked with bollards and cars. We need to move heavy equipment out of an area, about twelve miles east of here, if that equipment exists. So before we invest the fuel and manpower to clear twelve miles of open roadway, we have to make sure the objective is there or that it is somewhere. Mike was going by mountain bike and on foot to stay mobile. But he reported sniperfire from multiple locations east of here, multiple impassable roads, all built up around the airport. He said he was crossing south through the freeway barriar to find an alternate route. >freeway barrier?>when the plague was spread here, it came from downtown. The freeway system is spread into three concentric circles around downtown. We're here on circle 2, the beltway. Look outside when you get a chance. You'll see how the southern underpass is blocked off. That's not just this intersection. That's the whole city. They tried to contain it all inside the loop at first, then they cordoned off the beltway. Once you cross over that freeway, you're going to find out why we stay out here.The Merchant runs his finger under the freeway tracing towards his chosen destination.
>So if you're looking for him, you'll want to look over these maps to familiarize yourself with the outer loop area. Because he thought to go through the inner corridor here, south of the disputed territory and get to this industrial auction site to the east. Things are tough out here, but it's survivable. Inside the beltway, people have been blocked off for years, and the ghouls are thick, they're everywhere. I don't know what kind of loot there is, I'd be surprised if there's much left. If you go your team will need to be rested and well provisioned.>why not just drive through?>we could get your truck in, maybe, but you'll want that door fixed, and also, how much fuel have you got? You're not likely to find a gas station in there. You're going to want a team too. And you're going to need better than a half loaded glock.You can recruit team members individually, or as a team [single roll for the whole group, or individual rolls]
>ill be needing to see your wares. This list of food and ammunition, nightvision, bullet proof vests, hand grenades, and all that surplus.>it's not that kind of surplus Mr. Termelon. Your friend from last night was using a rechargeable camcorder with gen 1 infrared nightvision capabilities, we're not armed by the CIA, i'm afraid. The same cannot be said of XR's and those spooks in the helicopter.[Continued]
