Re: Post Ludum: Fimbulwinter
No, you didn't gloss over something. I guess I thought that rockets are simpler than NASA makes them out to be, and if you,in addition, were willing to accept a fairly high degree of risk of the thing blowing up on the launchpad, you could find it a lot easier to build a rocket.
I'm not sure if this arguement flies for Craftsmen wrenches or not. Maybe I should have pointed out that they had tools, but they did not have enough tools for everyone to use at the same time.
I think I need a list of scroungeworthy items for this. Also some about living in space, some issues that might come up, and so forth, not really an adventure, but a toolkit.
I also think my original location for this world works better...I had it in South Dakota or something...and there, they have access to nuclear weapons, and can potentially build an Orion rocket.
