0024- Invasion!!! The home town is invaded by an army of gigantic Devestator-Bots 2500 XLS by Catapillar! Run! Run for your lives! Run for the hills!!!
0025- You and your team have entered the Gamma Terra Coast to Coast and Back Again Rally Race 5000. On your marks. Get set! Go!!!!
0026- The party has entered a small farm town in Nebraska. Farmers have prospered from trade with New St. Louis and a cache of ancient Omega Tech. Towns people and neighboring farmers have been harrassed by ghosts. Vengful wraiths bend on destroying the town on moonless nights. The wraiths are vengful spirits, hunting for a solenoid to start a diesel generator at an ancient missile silo. The Pc will have to destroy the wraiths and stop thier diabolical plan to nuke those commie pinko living, in order to retrieve the cool Omega tech lost on the missile base.

0027 - A surviving neural network's creator and mater is gone, but its mission remains - it must catalog and commodify everything. To that end, it captures the party and forces them to record everything they see and/or experience by way of neural tranceivers. It also pesters them to identify which of these things they 'like' and incessently demands that they update their 'status' every few hours, even if - especially if - they've nothing to report but the most banal details. As annoying as all of this is, it does allow the party to gather some occasionally useful intelligence. The downside is that if they don't post their thoughts/findings/results regularly enough, the AI pesters them with a series of increasingly painful 'pokes' that will eventully force them to comply.

A small town in Hawaii? Does it really matter?

Sorry, that apparently came out wrong. It was a good natured jibe at my home state, in which all towns are small farm towns. The idea is great, and I was suggesting a locale for the aforementioned missile base.

0028 - The party stumbles upon (is sent to investigate/finds at the end of a long quest/ is exiled to/whatever) a hidden alpine valley containing a small city. It is an outpost of the Ishtar civilization (which, personally, I can't help but picture as an ancient matriarchal 'lost civilization' like Kôr) that survived the collapse of worldlines relatively intact. As such it is a potential source of tons of Omega Tech, but also an oasis of relative (perhaps deceptive) peace and safety. The players could seek to loot the place, or to keep it's secret and 'retire' there, open up trade, or simply to gain knowledge (and tech) more peacefully. However, the Ishtarans are a subtle, politically sophisticated people, and there are wheels within wheels and plots that might ensnare these 'strange visitors...'

Got you. Thanks for the clarification.
0029- The party is traveling at night, through the deserts of the south west, when they see a light streak across the sky. It crashes in a valley just over the next hill. After investigating, the party finds a crashed UFO full of Area 52 Omega Tech and two dead gray aliens. Two days latter, at the next town, the party is chillin' in a bar, bragging about their good fortune and the cache of Omega Tech they just found. When walks in a gang of Grays, all of 4' tall with ten gallon cowboy hats, laser pistols at thier sides and bad attitudes. They are looking for their lost cousins' stuff. Who are the fools that robbed thier family? Where did you get that Black Ray Pistol?

0030 - The party encounters a very charismatic 'Pure Strain Human' or 'Engineered Human' with a cybernetic hand, who is trying to re-build civilization. He may offer them Omega tech artifacts in exchange for their help, aid them in a mission, or send them on missions. His Conspiracy checks are off the charts, and anything he doesn't know, his talking hand seems to. (Yes, it's Robert Culp as the Demon With a Glass Hand). For several sessions he seems like a very honest, trustworthy, and useful ally. Until the party finds out (perhaps when he's bloodied) that he's actually a masterfully-crafted android simulacrum. The problem is, he's in psychotic denial of his nature...
