A land both familiar and unrecognizable.

Ancient Blood in Ancient Soil
Before war. Before nation. Before even the concept of empire, this island belonged to those who lived by the laws of the hunt.

It turned hot for a short time then got very caustic indeed. We lost. Only small pockets of 'western' society remain in much of Europe and the UK.
Many factions of disparate survivors emerged during the events that followed the first wave of invaders. Shepshed have held out. Hoton, Rempstone and Costock are now overrun.
Move and fire Move and fire.
Trust no one. Whilst our people have infiltrated some areas, collaborators are very common.
