Ironicly my group is rather the opposite, we tend to make allot out of the UK being the little guy, poorly equipped and supplied, having to make do with what we can find and use.

Historicly the British have always been the underdog, the stubborn little bastards who have no business doing well or winning. We succeed despite our failings, almost because of them. let us not forget in WW2 while everyone else where developing man-portable, anti-tank rockets we had a spring loaded monster with no range and was hardy to reload than a freaking crossbow!

Our games focus allot on how things have gone to hell and there is no higher organisation or control. We don't deviate from the post-apocalyptic side of T2k, it's what appeals to us.
