“Lawrence’s Company”: This is a gang led by Lawrence Toler, he styles himself as a Commando leading a resistance movement against the “Fascist MilGov.” They are mostly trained fighters. He is fairly unpredictable and has sometimes been generous and humane and also demonstrated extreme sadism, the latter in a calculated attempt to intimidate potential enemies. While they have raided Government positions and “collaborators,” this has most often been to secure supplies. In truth they are basically mostly marauders and bandits; though not all of them admit that even to themselves.
Lawrence is a pre-war Army Veteran, he was a Paratroop Sgt, and Ranger Tabbed, when he got out. He’s armed with a CAR-15, 10mm pistol, 2 grenades and a machete and is always accompanied by two poorly trained pit pulls. His XO, Don Thames, most often accompanies him everywhere, he’s carrying a pump shotgun, 2 pistols, and a machete. The mobile elements of his “Company” is organized into four squads:
- Support Squad: 2 ‘snipers’ with (scoped deer rifles) and a M-60E3 with about 600 rounds. MG is manned by two deserters from Army (used to be part of a helo crew) one effects a Rambo persona. Supported by his ex crew chief (still wears the kit). They have one LAW rocket. Lawrence’s brother Donn is one of the ‘snipers’ and leads this ‘squad.’
- “Grenadier Squad” this team of four is armed primarily with pistols, 5-6 grenades each, and knives and machetes. There ldr has a 12 ga pump with no stock. They make a strength out of their poor weapons and will try to sneak in close, often at night and engage by grenades. The squad ldr was a high school jock, and has a very good arm and is good at throwing grenades or knives. (Ldr is trained, others green)
- First rifle squad has four men (all trained) 1 M16, 2 semi auto AK-47s, 1 M-1 Garand, 2 pistols and 2 grenades. The leader of this squad (armed with the M16, .45) is growing increasingly disillusioned with this Resistance Movement, since he’s seeing them become more like bandits.
- Second rifle squad has four men (all green) 1 Ak-47, 2 x 12 PA shotgun, 1 LA 30-30 (w .357), One of the guys with shotgun is actually 17 years old, but looks 12. The leader of this ‘squad’ is sadistic, and will often get carried away and lose situational awareness.

Vehicles: They have several vehicles, but they primarily use them for their raids, most of the recon being done on foot or bicycles, due to limited fuel. When required, they can easily field a SUV or pickup truck for each of the “squads.” One pickup has a pintel mounted in pack for the M60, turning it into a technical.

Their base camp is a small apartment complex which they have taken over. Several of the garages are stuffed with lot, including 8 tons of canned/preserved food that Lawerence has been doling out to try and maintain local support. They are fairly careful to be low key/polite around their home base and to talk up themselves as resistance fighters. The daily distribution of food and perceived security makes some happy. The fact that they are holding women against their will and that they have beaten people
to "maintain order" make others silently hostile. If PCs encounter locals: 25% chance that the locals will support the gang and provide information and early warning, 50% they will not say anything either way, and just want to be left alone, and 25% will actively/willingly provide information.

Their base camp will always have a roving guard w a shotgun. Three other armed people (2 female) in building (1 scoped rifle, 1 AR-15, one bolt action Mauser). In addition to the above, there will be 8 willing and 2 unwilling women, and a dozen children. One of the gang members, is wounded and has a bullet wound in upper chest, unable to do anything. They have created a communal outdoor kitchen.

If the PCs could possibly be perceived as being MilGov Loyalists, or of threatening "his turf" they are very likely to be attacked.
