And again, I'll copypaste the KKND story as in any case. I don't know, but you might make a good use of it. All you need is just an oversized Guard Tower, that will serve as the secret tech-base, that must be captured (before the periods of the nuclear war (see the story below)) (pandamanana paladin lol), marine model and some tanks, aircrafts are not necessary.

visit http://www.kknd2.com/ and read (copied and pasted story):

The 21st Century looked as if it was going to be a golden era. Wars were at an all time low, nuclear arsenals were cut down to a fraction of what they once were and the environmental disasters feared by the 20th Century never materialised, through a combination of nano-technology to clean up the existing problems and then shifting heavy industry to space.

"But then in 2079 it all went wrong."

kkots: I have a story with Shivan (evil madman) as main character (pretty long, might take a whole campaign) that explains why did warheads suddenly strike from the sky.

Warheads rained down from space and within the space of a week a quarter of the worlds population was exterminated as cities became glowing radioactive furnaces.

"They were the lucky ones."

Wave upon wave of mutagenic viruses struck at human and animal alike, and high tech nano weapons ate at the computer circuits, electricity cables and plastics that civilizations depended on. As the infrastructure collapsed, billions starved.

Nowhere on earth was spared these deprevations, and it soon looked as if the only pockets of humanity that survived would be the ones hidden safe within bunkers, deep underground.

"But not quite."

In the years between 2080 and 2140 life was viciously hard for the few survivors that remained on the surface. intropic.jpg Horribly altered by the effects of both the viruses and the radiation they struggled to eke out an existence constantly under threat by the voracious fauna and flora of the new world. But after two generations the weak had died out and only the strong survived.

Groups banded together for strength and protection, building wepons out of whatever they could find, and began to tame many of the animals and plants they came across. A civilization based on strong warrior ethic had begun to emerge. Scavenging what they can from the old times, they rely on their animals more than technology.

"Meanwhile..."

Down in the shelters, original estimates of how long their supplies would last are proving hopelessly optimistic. Recycled food supplies were still adequate, if not enjoyable, but their technical resources were being stretched to the limit. survbrf.gif Eventually it became obvious to the shelter dwellers that they would have to return to the surface before they were completely denuded of technology.

Under the control of the Council for survival, the shelter dwellers started up their tunneling machines and begun drilling back up to the surface.

"They broke through in 2141, thirty nine years sooner than their original plan called for....."

kkots: the thing is to write plots for EXPLAINING why each event is happening in the campaign, for example - why did Nukes suddenly strike (believe, I have an awesome plot), or what did humans in underground (what did they find there), how did bunkers with 25th centure vehicles appear on surface and what was happening on surface between 2080 and 2140 :p (don't put a dot at the end of sentence if there's already a smile)

kkots: sorry for that a long post and great thanks for wasting your time reading this. Hope you will get mad as I did and actually make campaign-missions where you have to destroy something or to collect (collect cities conquered by destroying their barracks), but in progress there will be events happening that are what continues the campaign. Heh, you though that Survivors are fighting Mutants in KKnD?! You are right,
