Todays set up for the online WAC game, the abandoned farmstead, which way will the characters run way too this time? Will they find anything of interest? Will they be eaten by raptors?

Some local headlines from Dodge City beginning to set up the next scenario in the WAC campaign game. The only use for AI I've found in either work or hobby so far!

The posse rescue the Boops from their surrounded ranch - after blowing away, stabbing and blowing up way over a dozen raptors to do it. Molly ('The Mollinator') clearly ran away from the new psychopathic competition!

So we are set up for todays online game of WAC. Can the intrepid rescue squad get through the raptors and back again to rescue Lord and Lady Boop? The raptors will work to a (sort of) programmed movement, the players will randomly move and shoot anything and everything like always.

There are 6,000 children trapped in illegal schools in England – many hidden behind claims of ‘part-time’ education. In reality, they’re confined to cramped rooms, forced to study scripture for hours each day. Donate today to stop this.
