- Machine Mind survival guide - 13 March 2026
It has been a few days since many antennas in the Wasteland suddenly started receiving an unknown signal. Preliminary analysis had shown that the signal had artificial origins, but it remained undecipherable for some time. Only recently have some automated systems started to decode blocks of information contained in it. The message turned out to be some sort of instruction, which only the intended addressee was supposed to understand. We present you with the deciphered version of the signal’s parts:Hey, pilot. You’ve gotten yourself into quite a pickle. I’ll help you figure out how to survive out there and to reach your goal.Don’t forget to search the site of your initial crash: there must be resources there to create your first weapon.
