Several sessions and some changes of players later, the original crew have been joined by a squirrel with aspirations of knighthood from a small woodland community who learned the arts of civilization from a cluster of reenactors who fled to the woods in an effort to escape the plagues, and a coyote agent of the Sacramento government here to help the resistance
Having arrived at their goal, they have found that the commander is an arrogant bully of limited competence, and his guerillas mostly little more than cutthroats. Neither the duck who hired them nor the money he promised were in evidence
An owl flew in from Crater lake claiming that the Duck Town contingent plans to blow a dam upriver, which will kill invaders and enslaved locals alike. The Crater Lake village is run by a pacifist bear who goes by "Dr. P". Meanwhile, a genial Alsatian the PCs befriended disappeared while scouting, and the PCs decided to go look for him and probably transfer their cargo to Crater Lake instead.
They located a Road Hog patrol who had both the missing scouts and their missing paymaster and hit them in a surprise two-pronged raid, leaving half the enemy dead and the remainder grudgingly allowed to surrender, save one who's hiding in their armored truck. The patrol was equipped with some very high-tech gear that can't have been manufactured anywhere the PCs have heard of but looks brand-new.
