In the northwest corner of the domain a vast section of Hell's Traverse has collapsed, revealing an opening to an adjacent hell. This opening (called Breech to the Hell of Infernal Machines) was originally created when residents of the Hell of Infernal Machines, who had discovered tunnels connecting the two rounds, packed these tunnels with infernal blasting powder and blew the entire wall face.
The breach is a mile long, the area around for three miles in any direction is littered with huge rocks, boulders and detrius from the blast.
This area is called The Badlands, and is difficult to navigate on foot and almost impossible via any machine larger then a devil bike. However the raider gangs that call this area home have constructed cunning paths and roads across the wasteland and into their hidden bases. These roads are very difficult to find from the ground, at least without a map or a guide, though somewhat easier from the air.
