3.1 - Resources
Resources are items and commodities survivors need everyday. You can usually trade 1 unit of a Resource for another, unless the other person has enough of what you’re offering.
Food
A unit of food must be consumed per day by each survivor.
1 day without food gives you a Deprived condition.
After 5 days without food, suffer 1d6 points of damage per day.
Water
A unit of water must be consumed per day by each survivor.
1 day without water gives you a Deprived condition.
After 2 days without water, suffer 1d6 points of damage per day.
Bullets
A unit of Bullets is consumed every time you roll a 1 on a damage roll with guns.
For simplicity sake, Bullets are interchangeable.
Some weapons may automatically use a unit of Bullets as noted.
Fuel
A unit of fuel is consumed every 4 hours of usage by a car or 8 hours by a motorcycle or generator.
For simplicity sake, Fuels are interchangeable.
Some special vehicles or machines can consume a unit in more or less hours.
3.2 - Gear
Equipment is hard to get or to buy, so most survivors make do with what they have. These are usually found in abandoned places, but sometimes bartered with other survivors.
Backpack and sacks(2 unit): Everyone begins with them, but you might lose it. Without them you can carry only half as much stuff.
Frivolous Objects (1 unit): Stuff people don’t need to survive and are particularly useful in the post-apocalyptic setting they are in, like paper glue, magazines, simple toys, computer mouse, RPG dice, and other such things.
Useful Objects (1d6 units): Things people find quite useful in the current scenario and use them to fix things, make things, get around like cloths, shoes, boots, simple tools, small batteries, rope, flashlight, and other such things.
Essential Objects (2d6 units): Things everyone needs sooner or later in this terrible situation, such as toilet paper, animal trap, shovel, crowbar, fishing pole, net, flare gun, manacles, GPS device and other such things.
Valuables (3d6 units): These are not particularly useful objects but they still represent something important for the survivors and can cost quite a bit if people know you need them. Some examples are fiction novels, baseball cards, music albums, comic books, RPG books, and other such things.
