Your preparedness and cool head has made you a leader in the eyes of your neighbors and family.
God save me from that. I deny being leader. And neighbours are not any dumber of whatever, they just specialise in things other than elecronics. Also they are also stocked decently - remeber - they bring me what I needed, so they had and excess.
You need to set up a means of communication as all wireless communication is permanently down, and it seems only word of mouth is the only way news is getting in or out.
How is that? CB radios and walkies-talkies are fine and repaired.
How do you establish trade moving forward?
I don't think we need any trade at all at that point, since all that disater is temporary and main goal is to pass through with minimum damage, not make money. Will sum up everything later if needed.
Do you stay put, or do you leave?
Really nothing changed a lot. Yes, nobody making iPnone parties anymore, and there are no mains power from electricity company, but latter is not for long, they are fixing their stuff too. Why should we move?
What does your community look like? Will you have enough resources to take care of outsiders or do you fend for yourself?
Regular village, with forest, fields, log or stone houses and all that stuff. Just with temporary centralized power outage, which is not a rare thing, really, you know, that trees sometimes fall on wires or ice builds or wind, or somebody break power pole with tractor, so everybody prepared.
No, even a few weeks without electricity will not be even close to awful disaster here. Towns are more vulnerable, of course, but I don't think it will be total collapse too. Some shit will happen in some places, but nothing critical. As electricity will be fixed everything will return to norm.
Humans live without any electricity only 150 years ago, and that was not hell on earth. And even modern snowflakes will certainly survive a week or even a month without electricity.
We have a proverb - "devil is not as scary as they paint him", in the sense that things you don't dealt with often exagregated and when you really meat them, you find out that everything could be resolved, fixed or defeated easier than they told you.
Thanks for the game, and only one small suggestion - try to thoroughly thought out preconditions, so they be more or less consistent and have internal logic. This will make game much more interesting and even useful. :)
I think that situation when things looks consistent and logical, may be even boring, and so pretty possible IRL, and when player don't see any decent way out it is much more spectacular and thought-provoking than any plain trash horrors. :)
