What do you guys think would be a good reason for the apocalypse? I really like the nuclear war thing. I also like Koko's suggestion about it being a deity that was fed up with our bull crap, said enough is enough, and blasted us all to hell. Not that we'd learn anything, of course. It IS a war game, after all Let the brainstorming begin!

No matter the reason, I would really like to see radiation played with. I think mutations could be really cool. Whether we go all out and decide to use mutated cows with laser utters, or slightly mutated humans with more strength or something, I like that we would be getting creative and letting our imaginations flow.

MY IDEA WOULD BE to get away from the typical i.e mutants robots etc how about we are allmost like cavemen but we have present day inteligence and we have to make our own weapons etc using what we find around us using elements ie metals wood that would bring in a totally new way to start a game byusing our imagination i.e tanks pulled by cows ,horses etc then developing them same with our fortresses this would then bring in the use of alliances with others ideas the use of fire ,steam its like the games players starting from scratch with nothing like mankind had to at the start then it develops from there it brings in more to the imagination and takes the game away from the norm so gives a chance for a broader spectrum of players

I'm not necessarily on the " a deity that was fed up with our bull crap" path, but more tying in the historical prophets describing what could only be an all out nuclear catastrophe. Maybe you could incorporate these 'prophets' into game somehow? The forsaw these things happening, and therefore become our 'guides'? Then you have meteor falls, earthquakes, all the 'acts of nature/god' causing problems together with world leaders seeking ultimate power and the combination results in earth becoming a wasteland (like Mad Max style).

Looks like I'll have to watch Mad Max lol. It's been mentioned more than once on this forum and reddit.
I thought up a pretty unique resource system last night that I think I'm going to use. I'll create a post about it now.
