[QUOTE="Toric_Arthendain, post: 1340815, member: 9833"] OOC: My wife fell on a wet floor at a recreation center this past weekend and shattered the ulna in her right arm. She is home now, doing better and getting used to having a broken arm. As Maddmic said, I have located the module and will continue the game now. In order to get things moving again, we'll skip ahead slightly and assume that you all took care of the one remaining tank. IC: After destroying the remaining tank, quiet settles over the ruined buildings. A few moments later, a woman emerges from behind some of the smoking rubble. "Come with me if you want to live," she says and then without waiting, disappears back into the rubble. The brief glimpse of her showed that she was a gorgeous, raven-haired young woman. Following her, she leads the group through a series of concealed underground tunnels which link a network of abandoned basements, sewers, and subways. After seemingly endless miles, she abruptly halts in a cavern that appears to have been recently dug by hand. She lights a torch on the wall, and though winded, she introduces herself as Lilith. She then explains the situation to the group. In a nutshell, in this dimension, the United States delayed entry into World War II until after the UK, Europe and the Soviet Union fell before the Germans. On Aug. 6th, 1945, a nuclear bomb was dropped on Washington D.C. Freedom City's citizens offered a fierce resistance to the invading axis powers, and only after flattening the entire metro area did the Nazis finally place it under their dominion. In the decades since, the Germans have tried to rebuild the city as a testament to their power and might. To that end, they renamed it Arbeitstadt (City of Work). Because of this, the city has become a major target for the American Resistance. For a time, the resistance had hope, personified by the Nazi-bred superman Tomas Morgen. Morgen used an experimental Nazi time-machine to return to the past and try to change the course of history. When he returned however, he found that nothing had changed. No one is sure what happened to Morgen after that. Officially, he was killed by an elite squad of superhuman Nazis, though some say he took his own life after realizing that his sacrifices had been in vain. Others however, particularly those in the American Resistance, continue to hold out hope that he is still alive, somewhere. After this abridged history lesson, Lilith explains the current plight of the Resistance. They have learned that the Nazis have acquired a device that apparently fell to earth from parts unknown. It has been transported to the Von Braun Island Space Control Center for study. It is easy to extrapolate that the Von Braun Island Space Control Center is the area known as Star Island, just offshore of Freedom City in the groups dimension. Resistance spies have managed to determine that the device contains near-limitless, almost cosmic, levels of energy. Lilith explains that this device can't be left in Nazi hands.
