The rough idea is that somehow earth and the nightlands merged, a few nukes got fired, general chaos all around. The sky became greyer, the nights longer, the deserts larger, mass starvations happened and the number of cities got fewer. This weakened the nightlords control of things as they were more isolated from each other, their organization a mess, and enemies of both worlds now in one. The various anit nightlord factions in north America gained ground against the Nightlords there until Moloch focused on NA. The first real blow came as a surprise to everyone when the Yama kings invaded and took over china almost overnight. A war was attempted to retake china however it boiled down into a stalemate. Because of the unfair distribution of casualties in the war, and the subsequent loss of minions, Lord.. (the guy who is in control of the Russian federations) declared him and his followers independent of Moloch’s faction. Meanwhile the ADA managed to free up a large part of north America due to the faction focusing solely on that area. At this time Moloch’s forces started to fragment with each part trying to secure their own power base. Eastern Europe was absorbed by the new NL faction, Europe fell mostly to the vamps, with the nocturnes battling it out there. The mid east is in control of the Stragoti vamps ( the alternate kind from Shadows of light). Also you have a… well, not a nation but loose coalition of jewish/Christian/catholic/muslem cities and towns around the Mediterranean with the Templar keeping out undead and other SN things. Yama kings in control of china, Immortal headed Korea, and maybe Taiwan demon controlled. Can’t forget the hell riders taking over most large gangs and having a base in Mongolia

Technology, at least in the ADA controlled places, went up by leaps and bounds. Weapons and vehicles could be taken from Aliens Unlimited. Sonic and ion weapons along with ramjets and flexisteel armor would help out a lot on those nasty SN critters. You have all those weird weapons like the razor freebie, wrist blasters, and energy swords to sell to the roaming gangs. Exosketons and power armor could be helpful. Robots for those UAVs. Jet/Roater craft and hover tanks to. Lots of variety and powerful weapons (but not atomization from a glancing blow). Cybernetics from N+SS are fairly available and some of the really large megacities might have a cyberpunkish thing going on. (Manhunter Sims in the MKII Ultra program with cybernetic implants make nice quickly grown ADA agents, muahahaha)
