Ancient Equipment

While professional scavengers slowly pour through the ancient ruins, seeking the one great prize that will make them rich, the harsh truth is that practically nothing from the Age of Man still works.

The electronic devices have rusted or corroded into useless junk and of the handful that do work, only the simplest can still perform a useful function. Flashlights, can openers, things like that can still be made to work, sometimes.

Computerized devices are almost always worthless. The vast majority won't even turn on. Even if you manage to find a bunch of them and swap parts until you have a single working unit, the odds are that all it will do is report that it cannot connect to the requested service.
