    Unless you are carrying over weapons from a previous Freeway Warrior book, you begin your adventure armed with only one of these weapons. Make your choice and then record the weapon you have chosen, together with its calibre and rate of fire details, in the Missile Weapons section of your Action Chart.

    In order to be able to use a missile weapon, you must have sufficient ammunition of the correct calibre. The following list shows the calibre of each weapon, the amount that is used every time the weapon is fired, and the number of rounds that you possess at the start of your adventure:

    You focus your lenses on the top of the outcrop, and at first you see nothing untoward.

You do not have to wait very long: within a few minutes there is a rumbling noise, like the sound of distant thunder, and several giant cracks appear in the outcrop. Suddenly a whole section gives way and hundreds of tons of rock come tumbling down the mountainside.

    You pull over to the side of the road and Rickenbacker radios to the convoy, instructing it to stop and stand by. Using your lenses you are able to see that behind the tents a road block has been erected. It consists of rubble and auto wrecks, and it completely blocks the highway leading to the town of Westmorland. The road south to Brawley is open, but there are several strange-looking people standing at the junction, either singly or gathered in groups. Some are dressed in brightly coloured patchwork clothes, others are half-naked; yet all of them have one thing in common: they move with such lethargy that, from a distance, they resemble a colony of shambling zombies.

    I dont like the look of this, you say to your partner. Radio the convoy and get them to put Cookie on. Maybe he knows something about these weirdos.

    Rickenbacker complies with your request and, within a minute or so, you are talking to Cookie person-to-person. Sounds like youve run across a pack of Crazies, says Cookie, after listening to your description of the people at the junction. Theyre mainly junkies and street-scum that the army kicked outta LA and San Francisco. Theyre usually pretty harmless, but watch yselves. You never can tell what theyll get up to.

    You thank Cookie for the advice and sign off by telling the convoy that you and Rickenbacker are on your way back. You are about to reach for the ignition when suddenly you hear movement away to your right. You turn your head and see three Craziestwo men and a womanemerge from the scrub and scurry towards the truck. Despite their frightening appearance, you notice that none of them appears to be armed.

    What do you think? you ask.

    Rickenbacker shrugs. I cant see no gun and he looks harmless enough. I say we go n check him out.

    Slowly you drive towards the bridge, your eyes fixed on the mans movements. You are little more than thirty yards away when suddenly he sees you coming and dives to the ground. He reappears seconds later, brandishing a rusty shotgun, which he fires once in the air. You can tell by its dull report that there is something wrong with his ammunition. Immediately you stop the roadster and reach instinctively for your gun.
