Wasteland 3 is a classic RPG and at the same time a direct continuation of the second part of the series created by the founders of the genre of games in a post-apocalyptic setting. Below we answer one of the most frequently asked questions.

If the arrested are under the custody of the ranger headquarters, then nothing like this will happen.
