Winter Event suggestion

Considering how far up north Washington is, and how cold it can
get now I was thinking maybe there could be a winter event that
could last a few OOC weeks... With some advanced IC notice of
course.
It would work something like this: Food would be much scarcer,
people with poor clothing or shelter would be at risk of
hypothermia, water would be difficult to get from the frozen
water and radioactive snow, and caravans would halt entirely.
Faction effects:
Legion:
Temperature: Critical
Food: Critical
Water: Critical
Shelter: Poor
Supplies: Moderate
NCR:
Temperature: Cold
Food: Moderate
Water: Low
Shelter: Good
Supplies: Moderate
BoS:
Temperature: Acceptable
Food: Low
Water: Moderate
Shelter: Good
Supplies: Low
Fairview:
Temperature: Poor
Food: Critical
Water: Low
Shelter: Poor
Supplies: Low
Side factions would be in a similar boat as Fairview.
Tell me what you think :D

There is a _snow version of this map and it is way better with
sounds (no overwatch voice and far better background sounds),
alot more buildings but also different ones. Some places are
similar but we would have to restructure alot.

BoS have advanced technology but rely on caravans for food and
supplies. With winter, caravans would never enter as it becomes
too dangerous. Food would dry up all around, the power armor and
heating would be nice yes but other than that and water you
wouldn't get too much more than everyone else.
New dangers:
Cold: Begins to occur in unprotected persons, moderately or well
protected persons last a few more hours, Power armor or
environment suits offer near infinite protection time.
Food: It's gonna be scarce, it will take roughly a week before
starvation sets in. Symptoms can include, pain, nausea,
exhaustion, body deterioration.
Radiation: Radioactive snow will cause brutal conditions, unless
immune to rads it will take an hour of exposure outside of
shelter before stage 1 rad poisoning [Will subside, but at stage
2 you need treatment.]
Weather: Chronic blizzards cause even protected individuals to
experience trouble, refusing to find shelter will result in
death. [100% accelerated symptoms in storms or different
weather, protection wont offer immunity.]
Legion/raiders: Driven to the breaking point, they will be
extremely aggressive.
Robots: With the most immunity's, they have the highest chance
of survival. Expect more of them, and do not take them as
lightly as you used to.
Wildlife: In hibernation or desperate, anticipate more
aggressive, frightened, or hungry wildlife.
Water: All water will be irradiated, without proper treatment
from a professional, or a purifier device you'll get dehydrated.
Night: It can drop to extreme temperatures at night, traveling
at that time is suicide for anyone.
Faction leaders NOTICE!: It's going to be tougher than it was
before, some pro-tips so you don't die on day 1... [Just some
tips, you don't have to listen.]
*You won't be able to save everyone, at some point you won't
have enough to make an end meet...
*Aggressive action is final resort ONLY!: Note that if
aggression fails, you will undoubtedly lose it all. Try to only
do it if it's a last resort.
*Your men are going to be on the breaking point, check in with
them frequently, and make sure they get breaks.
*Mechanical equipment is invaluable, but make sure you have
someone to maintain it. A robot for example, could work 10 times
more efficiently than a human in this scenario but without
proper maintenance they become a burden you can't afford.
*Prioritize: Water, Food, Shelter, Security.
*You will be almost completely self sufficient, caravans and
outside trade WILL be non-existent.
Robot side effects: Because even THEY have limits...
*Joint freeze: Passive but non lethal, sets in after a day of
continuous exposure without shelter. Slows reaction time and
movement.
*Component deterioration: If you are outside too long, you'll
start to deteriorate due to the extreme conditions. Would take a
few days at the least to start.
*Water corrosion: If it gets inside, it can cause severe damage
to systems not near the power source. Disables any afflicted
systems until repair.
NOTE!: Winterizing will grant immunity to these effects, but
requires schematics, and rare components. It is not available to
non-robots. [Outside of a storm.]

Sounds fine. Might add alot of interesting RP. But wouldn't
Legion just back off the winter area?

Legion has [putting it lightly] strict punishment for retreat.
It's likely half would stay.

There's a clear difference between what retreat is and strategic
retreat.

The Legion would retreat, keeping an eye on that border though.
But this is like 11/1000000000000 of the legion. The rest is
bombarding california.
