Day 2 1130.
Just got out of a city Public works that was at the edge of my initial vison. The ‘city’, was really more of a well-off small town. It has a bar, news station satelite, 2 parks, and several very nice houses. There were several drivable vehicles, or at least they were running until the zombies found them.
I myself found 3 working vehicles. A sports car with a tattered battery, a security van, and a military humvee. But thats a story for Day 2. Day 1 was enough of a struggle.
= = = = =
I awoke in a lounge room/kitchen, with my buddy down the hall shooting at zombies coming through a bedroom window. I ran up to him and looted to nearby corpses for basic storage and warmth, but from him I only found food items. Useless to a person who cant carry what he does have on him.
Running around town, I found a LOT of shady zoms. So many I questioned whether or not the mod groupsspawn lists were in adttition to the defaults instead of a replacement of them. A lot of special Zmen in general, tbh. Which would make sense if you combined the abysmall spawn rate of Greenies with the moderated-but-not-insignificant weights I put on them in my own.
I spent the day without a car in a house in the middle of town. Not so bad when one considers that the middle of town is a field. I even gotg ballsy enough to craft stuff in the sunlight, but I paid for my crimes against Zmen when a necromancer came by. I just got the door shut in time to flee to the basement, where 2 new zombies had spawned and waited for me. I had, however been prepared enough to have crafted weapons by then. I came out of the ordeal with nothing more than a leather vest (because crafting a leather vest repairs the damage the jacket had sustained), a kevlar vest I found on the ground, and a backpack. I crafted warmers for my arms and legs, and even stockings because rags were so tight.
Running out with a makeshift crowbar, some nailknuckles, and a nailboard, I found the security van. I attempted to hijack it but set off its alarm. In despair I began wandering to an electronics store. In there I found a screwdriver kit and flashlight, and on my way through the streets I looked for a car. Instead I found the humvee, one street over from the security can and its alarm.
From there I had plenty of time assess it, and Got out of the town to a public works station. There I found a wrench and 8 shockers. I ran into the open garage building and used the wood pile for kindling and a wepaon against them. When 7 shockers and a spitter were put down I looted the place save an anvil. Ugh, finally some turnaround for my poor character.
An almost-empty military humvee, half a bottle of tequilla, and several electronics are his to behold. And the kevlar vest and newly looted filter mask/hard hat. Yesterday he was failing to craft 2x4arms and destroying cargo pants >.<
