Seven Hour War

After the Combine invaded and conquered the Earth, Los Angeles was turned into City 7. Armstrong was taken from his Beverly Hills mansion, given citizenship, and was relocated to City 45. Armstrong would occasionally run into a few citizens who would recognize him, and a few citizens who were fans of him.
Armstrong is experiencing a very tough withdrawal from cocaine, as he never actually stopped after going to rehab. With the presence of the Combine, finding cocaine was made very hard.

This has to be one of the most interesting applications I have ever seen

[The Mysterious Stranger]

 Probably one of the best applications that involved a lot of creation.

Interesting application, yes, but as i remember all celebrities and such were killed aswell?

Besides that i see nothing wrong with this application.

[Anzu]

I think i remember the reason that people couldnt have celebrity chars were because they were killed..

However, if that is not the case consider this accepted. Its well-written, nothing that will change anything major, only thing this will do is maybe create some more RP. Nothing wrong could really happen out of this.
