Readin' the Sitch

The posse has accepted a mission from Ike Taylor the mayor of Junkyard, and Joan, head of the Church of the Atomic Revelation. They are to travel to Carson City, Nevada, to find a blind man named Alexander. Alexander is the last remaining spy for the Iron Alliance in Carson City. He has recently sent news that something big is going down and he needs help.

The posse ended up in Silver Town, headquarters of the Black Dragons, a group of former Templars with their agenda. In return for their lives, they agreed to kill Joseph, a Templar and head of the Temple of Swords, formerly Twin Falls, Idaho. The posse succeeded in killing Joseph, took his head, and then fled. The rest of the Templars gave chase. In the resulting bloodbath, Tituba, Jericho, and Tom died.

Jet told Max that killing Joseph the Templar was too much. The kung fu fighter never wanted to see the road warrior again. Jet Li walked off into the sunset.

 
The Tell

Silver Town

·         Max and Rick rolled into Silver Town and presented Joseph's head as proof of the Posse's deed. They received a pardon from Nicholas Saxon, head of the Black Knights.

·         Nicholas invited the pair to an execution. Max and Rick recognized some of the Wasters to be executed. They managed to free the condemned and the newly formed posse fled.

Finding Alexander

·         The posse found Alexander, who was blind but seemed to have a sixth sense. He informed them that the Cult of Doom possessed a nuke from before the Doom. They were planning to use it for some nefarious purpose. 

Street Fight

·         The posse was stopped by a patrol led by a Doom Priestess. When it seemed that the priestess was about to discover who they were, the posse attacked. The posse killed the priestess, but some of her guards got away. Soon, the Cult of Doom was conducting a city wide manhunt for the posse.

·         The posse managed to avoid capture in large part because Alex seduced a guard, Carl the Gator (a mutant whose skin resembled that of an alligator], and used him to divert attention away from the posse. [Stephen played the Love Interest Adventure Card.]

Sneaking into the Hotel Coronado

·         The posse discovered that the nuke was in a hidden underground bunker underneath the Hotel Coronado. They disguised themselves as whores and chefs and snuck in.

Fighting the Walkin' Dead

·         The posse eventually found the entrance to the underground bunker. The entrance was guarded by a mass of walking dead infected with the Glow.

·         The posse emerged victorious after a tough combat. Then they head a rumbling sound from deeper inside the bunker and whatever was making the sound was getting closer . . . .
 

And that's where we stopped for the night.
