Greetings soldier!
So you've agreed to enter Dinosaur Swamp... but what exactly does that entail? The IMCN has put together for you a short primer about the region, in the hopes that this will educate you on what to expect in the days to come. Though even the best explorers can't prepare for every contingency, the information herein should give you slightly better odds at staying alive. Golden Age Salvage will be briefing you more thoroughly about the Swamp, but until then, you can study this. As most mercenaries worth their salt should know, the right knowledge is as deft a weapon as any vibro-blade. And for those of you with illiterate comrades, be sure to inform them that the following information has been rendered into audio format, available to play aloud or to access via a universal headjack, fingerjack, or data plug. Let's begin.

A comparison between the old, pre-Rifts Southeast and the Southeast as it supposedly looks today. The map on the left was taken from a pre-Rifts U.S. atlas and depicts the region as it's said to have looked centuries ago. The map on the right is a sketch by explorer Deearn Neenok, circa 84 P.A., and represents his guess as to how the region might appear now.
