[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 4972474, member: 12460"] Attached are two maps. One is of the greater Chicago metropolitan area. It shows the area affected by the nuclear blast. The dark red dot in the middle is the crater. Everything there is vaporized. The inner dark red circle is the devastation radius. No one survived within that radius unless they were deep underground, and all the buildings were leveled. The middle bright red circle is the destruction radius. Most people within that radius were killed instantly although some survived through sheer luck or because they were well-protected. All buildings within this radius are damaged beyond use although some stronger buildings are still standing despite the damage. The outer orange circle is the damage radius. That's where you are all located. The damage here is caused mostly by the super-powerful winds and debris created by the blast rather than heat. Most buildings survive relatively intact though some lighter buildings are destroyed. Most people in this radius survive the immediate event although many are killed. The effect of the EMP can be felt even further beyond this, not to mention the main power grids are overloaded for miles around, causing massive black-outs. Don't worry about radiation, at least for now. You are the heroes. You somehow managed to be in the right place at the right time and avoided the worst of it. The second map shows the immediate area where you are located. It is in a suburb of Chicago called Orland Park. Make sure to note the difference in scale between the two maps. Feel free to look this up on google maps and browse around to see what kind of buildings are nearby. The shopping mall and shopping plaza are key locations. In other words, they might be good places to go looking for stuff. Note this is approximately 10 years from now and an alternate reality so it is not identical. Don't feel like you have to go down to the street level and look around because there are probably going to be changes anyway. [/QUOTE]
