### Silos of the 578th

*During the height of the Cold War, the dusty plains around Abilene housed 12 missile silos belonging to the 578th Strategic Missile Squadron. Whilst the missiles were decommissioned long before the turn of the 21st century, the missile silos that they resided in remained Air Force property up until the outbreak of the Great War. As missiles started flying the most senior local commander, Col. Carrie Owens, had a tough decision to make. He had 12 silos, built to survive nuclear detonations and the harsh fallout that would follow them, but far too many important things to put in them. Her men had bunkers, but the local National Guard units did not: saving fighting men would surely help after the apocalypse. Or, Owens could prioritise moving precious resources into the silos, resources that would be invaluable in the future. Or should he allow all citizens who could make it to shelter in the bunkers? Was her duty not to save American lives? With little hesitation, Owen made her decision.*

 id### What Survived The Apocalypse

*Whilst spared a direct hit, Abilene suffered two glancing blows from missiles striking to the North and South-East of the city. Most buildings were flattened by the shockwaves, but more resilient structures in the Dyess AFB and city centre remained standing. The survivors of the blasts, emerging from the missile silos surrounding the city, found themselves greeted with a dead city. They needed a goal, and fast, lest their despair overtook them. Col. Owens once again took the helm, making a tough decision to prioritise one project above all others. The following years would be harsh, and many of those that survived in the missile silos around Abilene would perish from malnutrition, illness or radiation poisoning, including Col. Owens herself. Despite the overwhelming hardships, the principal project Owens pushed for was completed, and it transformed Abilene into shining star of hope across the nuclear wasteland that Texas has become. Indeed, it became the Lone Star. That project was...*

 id### Mutants Block the I-10

*Before the war, there were two great roads into Texas from the south-west: the I-10 and the I-20. Even after the Great War, the two roads remained relatively undamaged, leading to a significant flow of trade and people from the west to Austin along the I-10 and to Dallas along the I-20. As a result, settlements along the two roads began to find their feet again: gradually expanding and rebuilding. That was, until the mutants arrived. Led by the charismatic but twisted Shale, they made their home along the I-10: Shale's hostility to humans ensuring no trade convoys could travel the I-10 until they had moved on. As a result, the I-20 became the only safe and reliable route into both Austin and Dallas. Thanks to this, Lone Star boomed.*

 id### Friendship Across Texas

*Whilst Lone Star is without doubt an economic powerhouse, military affairs have never been our strong suit: for the most part, we rely on paramilitary groups and mercenary companies. To our south-east lies the Texan Brotherhood of Steel, who are quite the opposite. The Brotherhood has a strong military, and advanced tactics, but struggles with a sluggish economy. The solution, therefore, seemed fairly natural: the unification of both nations under one economic treaty. Under the original agreement, a 10-year union would cover trade and industrial relations, with Lone Star providing technical know-how to the Brotherhood and the Brotherhood providing military expertise to Lone Star in return. The agreement was ratified by both sides on the turn of the new year in 2265, coming into effect on this day 10 years ago.

Whilst the original agreement was time-limited, there little doubt an extension would be signed once the successes of the agreement became clear. A permanent extension was put before our assembly last week.*
