The flash

= THE FLASH =
== Introduction ==
The flash is a term coined by wastelanders. They are referring to World War 3, which only really consisted of a nuclear exchange between the United States, The Soviet Union, and China. This is the reason as to why the wasteland is so heavily irradiated as it is now. The total casualty report is yet to be given, but is allegedly being handled by the USRF.
=== Cuban bonanza ===
The conflict started when the Soviets placed missiles in Cuba in response to America's placement of nukes in Turkey. This caused tensions and relations to break down between the two enemies, and would later, through an error in communications on the soviet side, cause a nuclear submarine to fire the first shot.
=== The Flash ===
The world ended in only a few hours, and all remaining hopes of civilization crumbled to dust. It is currently 1964, but the technology is advanced due to a previous microchip revolution, causing the technology to resemble that of ours today, but the culture to be that of the 60's.
=== Wild Wasteland ===
The wasteland is often described as vile and wild, that's why most of the wasteland's inhabitants have flocked to communities, that later developed to the many factions of the wastes. The first factions to be established were the USRF, Alumni, and the Rebellion. The wastes are filled with raiders, junkies, beggars, scavengers, and all sorts of crazy, which makes for some pretty twisting roleplay scenarios.
Enjoy the game and play as you'd like, as long as it's within the rules. Enjoy what the wild wasteland has to offer!
