MrAnderson, exactly! Making life and death decisions in a
survival situation is one of the hardest things for a person who
has no training to do! :P
This is what this game is about, how will you, as a leader,
handle the decisions that will face your tiny group as they
struggle to survive. Some of them will be difficult, and some
may very well be heartbreaking, unless a player has a deep
rooted ruthless streak! ;)
Cheers, Thor

the only reliable food source other than farm animals or
hunting, and hunting would be limited to bullets. So I think
that I'll try to set up a little farm before winter passes
through.

I really appreciate your effort in trying to not use the net. I
think, if you give it time, you can actually learn a lot about
survival by playing this game. 8)
Your first day has been processed. It has not been a good day
for you. :'(
Cheers, Thor

my orders for the next turn, my biggest worry is the scavenging
parties and if they get spotted, since the only one who actually
would know how to use a gun is currently wounded.
Though for half the group being wounded, things could have been
worse. Not by much, but it still could of been.

Even with the three deaths you did a good job bud. Your second
day has been processed and is far better than your first day. As
you will see, every decision will have it's consequences. ;D

Done my 3rd day of orders. Things are still tough, but I think
that I'm going to scavenge one more place, the hardware store.
Should my reasoning be correct, there should still be a few
tools left there, maybe some materials. At my current usage, I
have 13 days of food and 7 days of water, so I'll have to
collect more to last until a harvest of the corn.

This one has potential. I would not be surprised if someone

MrAnderson, I apologize for the delay, but I had Haegan whip me
up a program that will generate new people for the game.
I will be back at it in a few hours. Doing up the jobs list
right now for the program.
Cheers, Thor

Haegan, yeah this is more detailed, and much more personal since
each person is not just a statistic.
As for short stories,I hope this game inspires folks to be
creative.
Cheers, Thor
