Return of the Resource Thread
Ages ago, a number of us posted some really useful links to help players of Systems Failure with equipment and ideas. I'm resurrecting it here. I'll edit my part of the thread as time permits, but you're all welcome to add stuff.
Warbird Alley
Grumman Albatross
Cold War Remarketing
Guns'n'Stuff
Courtesy Aircraft Sales -- Those Skyraiders would make nice Bug Killers, dontcha think?
Nanchang CJ6a Normally, I'm not real keen on sending the Chinese military my money, but in the Systems Failure world, there's bound to be a few of these planes stateside waiting for militias and NORAD to put them to work.
Alpine Armoring
Textron Marine & Land Systems AFVs, Helos, and other vehicles can be found here.
Federation of American Scientists
Lehmans.com Don't laugh. There's all kinds of low tech items here that would become needed again. Perfect for stocking that trading post or the bed of your Freebooter's pick-up truck.
U.S. Cavalry catalog
Cheaper Than Dirt More supplies here.

A good friend of mine made Deadman's Switch:
Information about Deadman's Switch, a survivalist town.
New O.C.C.s including Generation 2 & 3 Splicers, Scarecrows (Universal Soldier inspired super-soldiers from corpses), Killjoys (NPC only), Kill-Billy's (rednecks huntin' bugs!), and less off-the wall serious NORAD soldier and survivor stuff.
New Bugs (some seriously evil GM stuff)
New NORAD Weapons and Gear (with pictures)
NPCs of Deadman's Switch
Basically all the homebrewed stuff we came up with when we were playing the game when it first came out.
Good stuff, I recommend you check it out. A little something for everbody.

Re: Return of the Resource Thread
A thread over at RPG.net reminded me of my old Systems Failure material. Although I don't have any links up for it, I was surprised to find it's still sitting on my server (with '90s web design style still intact and all!) so I thought I'd share it here.
http://www.trustrum.com/sf/index.html
It even has a link to my old guestbook (which has some rather amusing entries.)
I also found my old (unfinished and unedited) working manuscript for the material and thought I'd PDF and zip it up to make available for anyone who may want to use what's there.

Re: Return of the Resource Thread
The link showed in its truncated form, probably because I copied and pasted from the post after it was up rather than while it was still in code format. Let's try that again.

Re: Return of the Resource Thread
This might come as a funny thing to add, but Thrift Shops...you can find all kinds of things there from old electronics, to clothes & gear.
