[HoE] Adventure idea: MARS teams

[Gwydion758@aol.com]

There was a PA roleplaying game out about 15 years ago in which you played
people who had been put in suspended animation by some far-sighted group to
prepare for the aftermath of a global thermonuclear war.  I can't remember the
name of the game, but the military branch were called Mobile Armored Recon
(MARS) teams.  There were also science, construction, and medical teams.

Each of these teams would be frozen and placed in a small underground bunker
with a cache of equipment and vehicles, the idea being they would be revived a
few years after the war to help the survivors rebuild.  Other sites would
contain extra gear they could draw as needed. The government also put some
special forces troops, called "Snake Eaters", on ice to keep an eye on them.

One neat thing for the GM in this game was a list of all the major military
and civilian targets in the US and an estimate of what and how many bombs
would be targeted on each.  The first part of the game would be taking an
atlas and figuring out how much of each city was destroyed, along with a few
random warheads (nuclear and biological).

Perhaps the posse is one of these teams, or finds one of their caches.  Or
perhaps the equipment failed and now the "Snake Eaters" are harrowed under
their dominion.  The gear in one of these sites would draw scavies for
hundreds of miles around once it was uncovered.

Anyone remember the name of this game?  I had a copy but for the life of me
can't remember.
