What happens in Warriors of the Apocalypse from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Set 150 years after the third world war, civilization has been wiped out by nuclear war and much of Earth now lies as a scorched desert. Among the few surviving tribes, a small group is led by Michael James as Trapper, a bold adventurer who must wage battles against rival gangs to secure the scarce resources that keep his people alive and hopeful.

When whispers reach them of a mysterious place where food is abundant, the tribe presses on in search of the Mountain of Life, a near-mythical haven said to be untouched by the holocaust and home to residents who have achieved something close to eternal life. The quest is perilous, but the promise of renewal fuels their journey and hardens their resolve.
