Basic Background N' Stuff
It's the year 2045. New York. Humanity has been driven underground in this area, and nuclear winter rages on above. Life in the tunnels is hard, although familiar. In 1992, the Civilian Defense Front, a post-war revival of Civil Defense, built the underground town known as Central Town. In 2019, remnants of the United States Civilization Preservation Force, a post-war all-encompassing term for the former military, built a high-tech surface on the base, now inhabited by nothing but raiders. Further to be found is the USS Ascending, a battleship good as ready to join the Seventeenth Fleet in Vietnam, which she unfortunately never did. Rusting away now in an old abandoned covered shipyard, she remains a stark reminder of what violence did to the world.
