*NEW PROSE* 'Desolation Alley Run Prologue'
Hey y'all,
Yup.
PW is a comin' back.
Me and
draggo have a lot of chapters of this next run, and I'll be posting them sorta regular. There may be a pause or three, to collate the various bits, or for non-run stories.

First chapter of run #1.
The Desolation Alley Run Prologue
All names/characters/vehicles/parts/systems are property of their respective owners/manufacturers/creators/players.
This particular pile of words is property DireWolf505/NMB and Draggo.
Time changes everything.
In the time since Barry, Draggo, and the other members of the Team returned from that strange fantasy-land come alive, much has changed.
Things have grown more peaceful in the S.W.S.Z (South-West Safe Zone). Brigand and ‘orange’ attacks are at an all-time low due to the efforts of ConSec and Draggo Long’s personal mission to make the area he and his family live in safe. Between the crushing defeat of the largest local ‘orange’/Soviet remnant combined force by ConSec forces at the Battle of Scapes Bluff, and aggressive sweep and clear operations, the brigands and other scum have been whittled away, and what’s left is keeping a very low profile.
Long Convoy Route 07 is now traveled by single civilian vehicles occasionally, and the outpost of Scapes Bluff, and the South-West Safe Zone Supply and Equipment Maintenance Depot Two are both spreading out, growing larger. Amenities are returning, such as music on the radio, old reruns on TV, the devices to receive those signals and steadier supplies of electric power.
The Team is living well, some members of the elite ConSec unit being loaned out to other units for increasingly rare difficult operations. The long patrols, and convoy ‘runs’ between Depot Deuce and Scapes Bluff have become easier, with resistance becoming almost nil.
But.
The rest of the former United States, and the world beyond have not fared as well. The other Safe Zones are safe in name only, with widespread famine, attacks by brigands, ‘oranges’, and even remnant Soviet invasion forces occurring frequently.
And now, reports have been filtering in that the brigands, ‘oranges’, and even Soviet remnant forces are working together, under some form of unified leadership, growing bolder in their attacks on the refugee camps, outposts, and surviving towns.
Soon, warnings from several sides will send the Team on a mission across a shattered America to root out and stop the cause of this new threat, and it‘s source. Encountering allies, friends, and enemies old and new, and dealing with internal strife, the Team must travel a route that the older members remember all too well.
Welcome back, to the world of PostWar . . .

Nice. I presume the run will be very interesting. Also, very interesting a name. Reminds me of a certain movie. Anyway, I am looking forward to read how the situation is in this post-apocalyptic world of yours outside the "safe zone" where the story has been situated up till now. Yup. Nothing further to say. Good work.
