NEW BERLIN

Chapter 1: Introduction

The rebel outpost of New Berlin is checkpoint and rest stop for Citizens escaping City 21 to the rebel town of Duneburg. The Northern European version of New Little Odessa, only instead of city 17, New Berlin has city 21 located right in the middle of the Rhineland. The Rhineland is the most resource rich place around. That combined with the pre-Combine factories it has become the prime spot for them to build a modern day ghetto. And if you think the guys at N.L.O had it rough, try living next to the most important cog in the Combine war machine

The risks with being a rebel in this general area are extremely high. City 21 supplies the entire Combine Empire with weapons and supplies. This and it has an even higher amount of military presence then even city 17, the Combine capital. The rebel outpost of New Berlin is under constant barrage from air raids and even the occasional "experimental" weapon. Life expectancy for Rebels in City 4, the smallest military city, is three months. Those in City 17 is one month, one week, and 4 days. Rebels in City 21… About two weeks.
