Troops, walked along a snow covered road. APC's and tanks drove by them. Heavy mechs made the ground shake as they walked into the ruined city...
A flare of light lit up the night as a atomic went off nearby. The troops ran into the city, gunfire could be heard. Aircraft flew overhead dropping bombs.
The troops were of something out of a nightmare... Their face was covered in a gasmask, with red goggles, a helmet went over their forehead and ears (like the German WWII helmets). They wore heavy kevlar armour and black body armour. A heavy overcoat over the armour. Their feet were covered by steel plated combat boots that went to the knee. They carried a full pack on their back, a vibro-spear, knife and a heavy pulse rifle/flamer...
The lanscape was a scene of sorrow and shame... The ground was torn, and burnt by atomics. Great ruins of cities stretched across the horizon, covered in a layer of snow. The sky was enternally cloudy, lightning cirsscrossed the sky. Great pyres of bodies, still smoking, these were the bodies from a world-wide gencide. The ground was covered in the frozen bodies of soldiers and ruined mechanical cavalry...
The troops and armoured forces made their way to the center of the ruined city. They tore down the faded flags that flew in the buildings. The remaining people were herded into the city center. Everyone wore gasmasks including the children. A soldier approached a machine gun slung over his shoulder. The people were forced into a line... Gunfire and screams could be heard resonating off the derelict buildings...
