I haven't posted here in almost a year.. (sigh). So hello all!

Question 1 - Yes, the Radiation screen comes with an adventure.

The best HOE adventure to date is without a doubt, Urban Renewal. It's no
cake walk, but it's doable. And if you play the atmosphere right, you can
seriously freak out your posse. I know I did.

The adventure from the Rad Screen will do nicely. It glosses over a few
things, but gets the ball moving early, sets up some good life-long enemies,
and some good life-long friends as well.

I am very much looking forward to getting the Unity adventure, despite the
fact that my HOE game fell apart 6 months ago due to a player having to work
on Sundays, and another player having a baby and med school... I hope to get
it back together soon though, if I can get people to stop playing D&D...

Good luck!
