Riding with Lackhart's Lancers

The cracking of super-heated air makes my head snap round. A flash of searing light lances across the landscape, followed by a second. In the distance, I see a body crumple.
“Down and out!” The excitable voice of Rich Lackhart bursts from the radio speaker. “Let’s keep it moving, Lancers.”
Another morning’s commute for a mid 21st Century haulage gang.

Motorway Patrol interview

It is 4am on a cold September morning. Patrol Sergeant Dave Chapman takes a deep draught of hot tea, standing at the service station in the shadow of the Severn Bridge. For the past two hours, he has driven from London at a sedate 55 mph, showing the flag and protecting his patch. Now he takes a well-earned break.
“Everyone seems to think that we have high-adrenaline lives; that the excitement never stops. We have our moments, but actually, most of what we do is just remind people that we are here; that there is a law; and that someone cares if they break it. That is often enough.”

23/9/55: Babylon is a true inspiration in these times of darkness. Under the dynamic leadership of Sir Hector McDonaugh, the company has thrived while so many others failed. Read more

20/9/55: Mayor Rod is victorious. The battle against an insidious foe has been won, and Mayor Forrester-Smythe’s aggressive policies have been vindicated. While others dithered, Mayor Rod took action. The result? Londoners are safe from a creeping infection that has decimated nations, destroyed civilisations and ripped communities in half. Read more

Weather in the British Isles

Throughout the year, the British Isles experience changeable weather. Settled weather lasting more than a few days is unusual, and will result in the entire population grumbling about it. Rain is common, swept in from the Atlantic. Although Ireland bears the brunt of the rainfall, explaining its lush pastures, wet bogs and its sobriquet "the Emerald Isle", the rest of the British Isles do not escape.

When travelling through the British Isles, roll 1 die before any encounter and consult the following table:

On a 1: Raining heavily, windscreen wipers working double time, road conditions treacherous
(-3 to hit, all manoeuvres +D2)
On a 2: Raining, windscreen wipers can cope, lorries throw up curtains of spray
(-2 to hit, all manoeuvres +D1)
On a 3: Drizzling, grey skies, occasional use of wipers, only deep puddles cause real spray
(-1 to hit, no penalty to manoeuvres)
