Well basically, none of those things have to impact your CE game. The only ones that are potentially relevant are ARCHIE and the Vampire Kingdoms.

ARCHIE is, of course, the AI that runs the Aberdeen Proving Grounds. In the early days of the Cataclysm, he freezes tens of thousands of NEMA troops, and then basically hibernates for many, many decades.

The Vampire Kingdoms, themselves, are kind of sketchy. Two things are fairly certain: 1) Something big immediately goes down in Mexico that cuts them off from the rest of North America, and 2) the actual Vampire Kingdoms won't establish themselves for a long time, possibly hundreds of years. There are very likely vampires in Mexico, however, even at the very beginning of the Cataclysm.

Most immediately, your CE game is probably going to be smaller in scale than a typical game of Rifts. Since supplies are so limited and travel is so difficult, and otherworldly things so plentiful, most games will involve characters that operate in a relatively small area, at least in the beginning.

Madhaven has some interesting notes on pre-Rifts technology when discussing the World Fair.
