Silently you draw a close combat weapon and creep forwards, using the wrecked cars and the howling storm to cover your approach. As you move, you keep your eyes on the clansman. He stops to shelter in the lee of a panel truck, where he attempts to light a hand-made cigarette.

You are within five feet of him when suddenly he turns and sees you. Before he can scream a warning to his fellow clan brothers, you leap forward and launch your attack.

Groucho: CLOSE COMBAT SKILL 14   ENDURANCE 24

Owing to the surprise of your attack, you can ignore any ENDURANCE point losses you sustain in the first two rounds of combat.

If you win the fight, turn to 312.
