And now, 10 years later, the fence has rusted. Trespassers skulk through bilious mud, hoping to collect and sell off the refuse; or ‘artifacts’ as the Institute likes to call them. We have come for a buck while the rush lasts. Before it goes the way of all things. It pulls me further, deeper into the swamp. And I think, know that it is there. I will find it. Even if I fall apart.

Have you considered making a more print friendly version of the rule book?

Yes - I can add a text-only version this weekend.

Added FISSION SWAMP-V1.1-grayscale.pdf which removes the backgrounds and many of the darker elements.
