During the final wars, various factions came to rely on psychological tactics like terror, rather than conventional bombs, bullets, and energy beams, as their weaponry of choice. Many believed a terrified populace was an unproductive populace, demoralized and ripe for civil unrest, all useful conditions for the terror-users. Sometimes this strategy worked, but other times it backfired so badly the... [click here for more] |

Although most Ancients considered melee weapons like swords, axes, maces, spears, and even exotic ranged weapons such as bolas and shuriken to be archaic, some did practice the use of such weapons, and there were inevitably high-tech versions of them.

As one of technology’s four horsemen, radiation is an important factor in post-apocalyptic and sci-fi games: hazard, theme, bringer of mutation, waster of civilizations.
