On April 25-26, 1986, a test of Plant # 4's reactor core at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Facility led to the worst nuclear power plant disaster in history. Many factors, from faults in the reactor design...to repeated human errors...began a cascade of events that are still felt today in the Ukraine and elsewhere. A 4,300-plus square kilometer area around the Chernobyl facility was designated as an Exclusion Zone within two years. Along the Southern Boundary, are the five South Zone Settlements, boomtowns where anything can be had for a price. Contained inside the military-patrolled borders of "The Zone..".is a world of speculation, misinformation and the unknown. It is a savage place... where criminals of all stripes, bandits, mercenaries, heavily-armed militant Factions and others...vie for control...for money....for survival. The Russian Military has another name for the Zone, a very apt one. The Zone of Alienation. Mutation has altered and changed the creatures within the Zone, producing deadly mutants, both above ground and below. Anomalous areas create strange artifacts worth small fortunes on the black markets of Europe. Endowed with differing properties across a wide spectrum of effects, many of these artifacts are also deadly in their own right. Intelligence agencies have also come to the Zone in force. These covert agencies have brought their own agendas and ruthlessly pursue them with every tool at their disposal, from bribery and intimidation...to outright murder. There is a great prize to be had...the secrets of an on-going, massive covert operation...Pandora. Those who control Pandora, control a path to untold riches and power. The Krailiaki, vicious predators that have been pushed into hiding with the rise of Mankind to dominance on the planet are going to strike back. They are going to wage war on the humans of the Zone. Only the law of the gun ultimately prevails in this land... Welcome to the world of the Zone. 720 Pages
