Campaign Pack A2: Sydney The Wilderness Campaign continues this storyline, describing the causes of the Ruin, details of the University of Sydney, and the current state of the city of Sydney. [1] The book moves the campaign plotline forward, and also details various denizens of the city and the bands of survivors in the surrounding outlands.

In Issue 20 of Imagine (November 1984), Chris Baylis found the book was "full of useful ideas and suggestions." He did note that many of the listed encounters were "deadly", although he thought they might "raise a giggle when first met", citing in particular "machine-gun toting rabbits." Baylis liked the emphasis on role-playing over combat, and concluded, "Since Aftermath! depends more on negotiating and problem-solving than on shooting straight, [Sydney] should become a useful aid to all referees."
