RPG Campaign Tour: Day 17 - Can You Tell Us About Any Famous Battles or Wars?

I took day 17 of the  #RPGCampaignTour for my Gamma World campaign "This Is Not a Test" and turned it right to my players....

Pete, Squiggles - The Battle of the Gazebo.  The previous entry on the Kirothians does have one gaping error in it.  The group the De Facto Explorers encounters, in the winter, around KIA Academy was not the first group of Kirothians they met with.   Labelled only as 'blue skinned mutants'  they were encountered in the early fall far to the south of KIA.  It should be noted that the no connection can be made between the hostile Kirothians and the ones that settled in Fair-Town.  The Battle itself was maddening, centered on an ancient gazebo, and the Explorers realized that these people had their own working version of the Children's Alchemical Laser.    It should also be noted that the subsequent destruction of their rental, an electric powered golf cart, made Pete persona non grata in KIA, and made some enjoyable role-playing as he tried his best to pretend to be "Stinky Meat", Pete's cousin. 

Lathar - A two-time champion probably has some bias as he wants to regale his successes in the Queen's Joust.  Lathar and his trust steed, No-Name are new legends within the tournament scene, and him literally winning a spot on the Fair-Town town council will create some problems down the road.

Sonny - The Battle of Kyoto Dam, clearing out Level A Inc, and most recently, investigating the Hopper community and Living Metal factory far away on the other side of the Big River have all resulted in atomic blasts.  Thankfully, Sonny's teleportation ability (or sometimes fast legs) were the difference between survival and getting vaporized.

Next: Day 18 - Forgot to ask, how do we get around?
