Has anyone had experience playing Mutatn Bikers of the Atomic Wastes? It runs on the FUDGE engine and looks like a lot of fun (I was thinking about giving my SR group a break, playing MBAW for a few weeks, then smacking them with THE TERRIBLE TRUTH.

Legend has it that in the mountains is a giant glowing green rock that can be crushed and added to gasoline for that extra *vroom*, what are you waiting for?

A group of fat beaded men (in Sailor Moon Suits) have descended en masse on the peaceful town of Podunk, how will the characters get rid of them?
