Road Hogs is the second supplement to theAfter the Bomb setting of theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangenessrole-playing game. It was published byPalladium Books in October 1986 and uses the PalladiumMegaversal system.

Road Hogs was written byErick Wujcik, and was published byPalladium Books in 1987 as a 48-page book.^[1]

Road Hogs is anAfter the Bomb! supplement describing the postholocaust West Coast, including maps, new character rules, new animals, equipment and skills. The book focuses on vehicle combat, with a scenario and a comics story.^[1]

The storyline ofAfter the Bomb introduced apost-nuclear warfare setting centered around the eastern United States, where most of the area is populated bymutatedanimals that form the predominant societies, as opposed to the setting ofTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness where mutants live on the fringes of contemporary human society.Road Hogs expands that setting to include the western United States, which is largely controlled by vicious gangs of mutants in heavily modified vehicles, scavenging for their existence. It is reminiscent of the movieThe Road Warrior.

The book outlines many new rules for the operation of vehicles and acquisition of resources in a bleak wasteland setting, as well as several adventure scenarios. These include road maps ofSouthern andCentral California that indicate where the various factions and gangs occupying the region are located. Most of the civilized mutants and humans are located in what was previously known asSacramento, California.

A short story was included with the book to give feel of environment the supplement provided. It involves the tale of an ancient, slightly senile turtle martial-arts master who wields a pair ofsais, hinting that this character may in fact beRaphael. He also mistakes one of his students for "Mike". This suggests that he was one of the originalTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The book is also noted for its original artwork byTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creatorKevin Eastman, which has not been reproduced in other books from Palladium.
