It took more than a week to discover a vehicle capable of transporting you to McKinney. It was an old school bus parked in an underground lot where it had survived the years of sub-zero blizzards. With fuel and spares salvaged from the mine, you managed to coax it back to life, whereupon you set off on your journey north. When you arrived at the town, it was easy to find where the Ewells lived, for their ranch was the only place that was still standing. It looked more like an old frontier post than a ranch, with its fortified perimeter wall, lookout posts, and stake-filled moat. However, after being ambushed and shot at by the city gangs of Fort Worth during the final stages of your journey, you could readily understand the need for these defences.
Pop
Ewell, the seventy-year-old grandfather of the Ewell family, was the leader of this small colony of survivors, and it was he who had urged Uncle Jonas to join them when your uncle had first made radio contact. The colony numbered less than a dozen at the time of your arrival, yet as the airwaves became clearer and new contacts were made, the number had soon more than doubled to twenty-five. It was decided that a name was needed to identify the settlement. The name Dallas Colony One
was adoptedDC1
for short
Cutter
Jacks was one such refugee. Before The Day
he had been chief mechanic at the International Grand Prix Circuit near Lake Dallas, and his incredible skill and knowledge of engines was soon to prove invaluable to the colony. He taught you how to drive, and from a pile of old wrecks that you helped him salvage from the circuit, he built you a powerful, customized car. You used it to patrol the highways north of the city, keeping a lookout for gangs of city punks who frequently mounted raids to steal or destroy DC1Freeway Warrior
.
Six months after your arrival at DC1, the colony was faced with a major crisis. A heat wave caused a drought that threatened to destroy the food supply. Crops were failing and the colony

It is reasonably clear that the Machine Pistol should not be used if you have fewer than 6 rounds of 9mm ammunition.
-For some readers, however, it may seem counterintuitive to have ammunition left but be unable to use the weapon. We suggest to these readers that when 9mm ammunition falls below 6 rounds, the Machine Pistol can be treated as a Pistol (cf. Section 333).

They leap to their feet and come running across the bridge, cursing and fumbling for their weapons as they do so. You hobble to the truck and take cover as Rickenbacker, hoping to buy you the precious seconds you need in order to destroy the radio transceiver, opens fire at the approaching clansmen.
As you move along the side of the truck, you notice a keg of blasting powder resting in the back with a self-lighting fuse attached to its top. Rather than attempting to batter the radio to pieces, you decide to blow it up instead. A sharp tug is all that is required to set off the fuse; then you run towards Rickenbacker as fast as your aching foot will allow. As you jump into the ditch, there is a jarring boom and a brilliant flash of bright orange flame as the truck explodes.

From behind the metal lip of the garbage cart you survey the battle that is raging around the plaza. Most of the colonists have now armed themselves and taken cover, and they are putting up a worthy defence of the vehicles. The few clansmen you do see are either dead or attempting to escape from the town now that they have achieved their objective. All of them, that is, apart from one. He is a blond-haired thug, dressed in a studded leather vest and striped pants, who is busy hammering at the glass door panels of the DC1 school bus with the stock of his machine pistol. The sight of him senselessly attacking the door of the empty bus does not bother you unduly until you remember that there is one person still on board the bus
Carefully you wind the strap of your rifle around your left forearm for extra stability, and then settle against the lip of the hollow and take aim at the distant figure. When you are sure that you are on target, you fire, but at that precise moment a cloud of oily smoke wafts up from the burning barricade and obscures your view. The smoke clears quickly, but when it does there is no trace of Mad Dog Michigan.

The driver, his eyes and mouth open wide with horror, fights desperately to correct the skid. But before he can regain control, Rickenbacker machine-guns the rear tyres and sends the car careering through the crash barrier. With a crunch of buckling metal, it hits a telegraph pole, overturns, and spills its occupants out onto the sun-baked earth as it rolls to a halt at the bottom of a steep embankment.
You fire your shotgun and see the clansman thrown backwards by the force of the lead shot at such short range. (Remember to deduct a round of 12-gauge ammunition from your Ammo Pouch.) No sooner has his body crashed lifelessly to the ground than one of his comrades leaps over him and jumps straight at you with his hands outstretched. Before you can pump another round into the breech and fire again, he grapples the shotgun from your hands, and then lunges forwards to fasten his steely fingers around your throat.

Before you can pump another round into the breech and fire again, he grapples the shotgun from your hands, and then lunges forwards to fasten his steely fingers around your throat.
Owing to the suddenness of the attack, you cannot make use of a close combat weapon until the third round of combat.
Your pistol shot hits the clansman in the chest, killing him instantly. (Remember to deduct a round of 9mm ammunition from your Ammo Pouch.) The sight of his body tumbling backwards down the slope sends a shock wave through his confederates, and at once their attack falters. Encouraged by their sudden change of heart, you watch as they fall back towards their trucks, which are parked in the centre of the freeway.

Left with only one good front tyre, you find yourself battling with the steering wheel to keep the roadster progressing in a straight line. You have barely regained control when another burst of gunfire punches a line of dents across the hood, and forces you to swerve violently to avoid the driving compartment being riddled with lead. With skill, you bring the car to a halt alongside an auto wreck, and shout to your partner to bale out. Bullets whistle all around as you and Rickenbacker tumble out of your seats and seek cover behind the roadster

Your shot misses the clansman, but its proximity makes him recoil and crash backwards down the embankment. (Remember to deduct the relevant number of rounds from your Ammo Pouch.) Unfortunately, his fall diverts your attention from his partner, who has successfully climbed the bank and is now rushing your position with a knife in his hand. As you turn to face him, he leaps upon you and wrestles your gun from your grasp.

It is possible that you may not be carrying a missile weapon at this point. This is a game-design issue that cannot be easily rectified.
+Expectantly you ease open the door but something makes you stop dead in your tracks. It is a dog-like whimpering, followed by a low growl. The sound makes you uneasy, and you reach for your gun before opening the door any wider.

The room beyond is dimly lit by the glow from the roadster
At once you raise and fire your gun at the moving shadow. For a split second the open mouth and head of a ravenous coyote is lit up by the muzzle flash of your weapon. Then, as your shot catches it in the chest, the wild dog stops in mid-air and falls dead at your feet. (Remember to deduct the relevant number of rounds from your Ammo Pouch.)

The noise alerts the other clansmen and suddenly all hell breaks loose. They leap to their feet and come running across the bridge, cursing and fumbling for their weapons as they do so. Through a pall of falling dust you hobble to where Rickenbacker is hiding and lower yourself into the ditch beside him.

As the dust clears slowly, you see the clansmen running towards the blazing remains of their truck. As they get nearer, you take up your gun and prepare to open fire.

Your shot catches one of the clansmen in the side. (Remember to deduct the relevant number of rounds from your Ammo Pouch.) He screams and falls against his partner, who is forced to drop his rifle in order to catch his wounded companion. Rather than fire a second shot, you jump onto the roof and run towards the group. The clansman who is sitting with his back to the parapet sees you approaching, and a wave of fear knots your stomach as you wait expectantly for his shout of alarm. But curiously he does nothing to alert his companions.

Instinct prompts you to act quickly in case he has a change of heart. You rush forward and attack the two riflemen before they can disentangle themselves. Your first blow sends the wounded clansman tumbling over the parapet. Then, before his companion recovers his senses, you jump forward and attack.

Having chosen to block the exit, Macy and Langdon wait patiently while you and Rickenbacker drive off the freeway and make a wide detour around the town. As soon as you are in position on the far side, they bring their Trans-sol to within fifty yards of the suspect clan car, halt, and then rush forward on foot. You watch them disappear among the buildings, and then less than a minute later, you hear gunfire and see three mean-looking clansmen come running into the main street, shouting and firing behind them as they scurry towards their vehicle.

You respond to their cries by leaping out from behind the garbage cart and running headlong towards the open door, oblivious to the bullets that are whistling past on all sides. As you reach the entrance, you almost throw yourself aboard the bus in your haste to prevent the clansman from harming the two women. As you regain your feet you see your aunt grappling with the thug in the centre aisle, her hands locked around the muzzle of his gun in a desperate attempt to prevent him from firing it.
