A little something to get people excited about Strontium Dog. It's of my own devising and not to be taken as anything to do with the actual game.
A Brief History of New Britain from 2150 AD
2150 – The end of the Great War, the most devastating nuclear war on Earth. Only 30% of the world’s population survive, and of those which are born in 2150 or later, perhaps 30% are mutated.
Nelson Bunker Kreelman is Civic Leader of New Britain SW Sector and he brings in the first of the Anti-Mutant Laws, which state that no mutant may be allowed to own a business or property.
Also in 2150, John Kreelman, aka Johnny Alpha, is born.
2158 – Nelson Bunker Kreelman is elected to Parliament and within a week he introduces the second Anti-Mutant Law, which wants all mutants from all forms of employment. This has the effect that the mutant population cannot pay their rents and are evicted. Soon after, Kreelman expands the Vagrancy Laws to banish all mutants from the cities of New Britain.
2162 – Guerilla warfare by the Mutant Army against Kreelman’s fanatical hatred of mutants. Kreelman retaliate by creating the ‘Kreelers’ his own Anti-Mutant Police force.
John Kreelman runs away from home to join the Mutant Army SW Division at Salisbury Plain, assuming the name of Johnny Alpha.
2167 – The Battle of Upminster, in which Johnny Alpha leads an attempt on Kreelman’s life, which fails. Alpha is the only witness to his father’s escape, made possible by the use of the newly developed Time Devices.
In the battle, General Armz is killed and Alpha becomes the Mutant Army’s youngest General. The Mutant Army Generals are all captured and sentenced to death by Nelson Kreelman, who is the head of the newly-formed Ministry of Mutations. He quickly passes the third Anti-Mutant Law which establishes “Experimental Labour Camps” for mutants.
Alpha and the other Generals escape, and on Friday 13th November, 2167, the Mutant Uprising begins. The Mutant Army take Upminster, but Kreelman escapes again to Kreelerbase SW, from where he launches his attack using the deadly Time Weapons. Within 24 hours he has regained control.
Kreelman then wastes no time in passing the fourth Anti-Mutant Law – the Extermination Bill.
The surviving MA Generals, including Johnny Alpha, escape again from Kreelman’s death cells, and resume guerrilla warfare against the regime.
At the end of 2167 Nelson Bunker Kreelman suddenly resigns. Parliament, now led by Prime Minister Leroy Wedgewood Bunn, initiate a three-point plan to end the Mutant Rebellion.
In general, all mutants must lay down their weapons, the Mutant Army Generals are offered amnesty on the condition that they leave Earth and do not return.
Some mutants, the toughest, choose to join a new agency being set up by the Galactic Crime Commission – to become Search/Destroy Agents. The norms soon call them STRONTIUM DOGS!
