In this issue, there is plenty of material for fans of Mutant Future and the post-apocalyptic genre to gnaw on! Here is just a sample:
  • New Jersey After The “Big Whoops” by Adam Thornton -- This entry in the 2010 One-Page Dungeon Contest won in the "Best Post-Apocalyptic Goodness" category. The radioactive sandbox setting is based on the eastern U.S. coast.
  • Post-Apocalyptic Crafting by Lawson Reilly -- If your PCs would like to try to cobble together something useful from the ruins and debris of the wastelands, this elegant system allows the player to try to craft an item from found objects. Anything from simple devices to lethal weapons are covered, and skilled crafters could even begin a sideline business selling their assembled wares.
  • Artifacts, Adjuncts, & Oddments: Elegant Weapons for a Mutated Age by Lee Barber -- Barber presents us with three "rayguns" for use in post-apocalyptic/space opera games. Will your party find the "Hubley Atomic Disintegrator" useful or dangerous? Can they handle the awesome power of the "Commando Blister Rifle?"

  2. Hair cut spam now? Anyway, thanks for mentioning my raygun bit. The blister rifle was my version of a prop seen in the Hoff-tastic film STARCRASH.
