death tribble Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Water purification. I'll let Pariah decide whether this is via an industrial plant that is still running, filters or tablets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let Pariah decide whether this is via an industrial plant that is still running, filters or tablets I'm sorry, but I have to disallow this. (Partly because I already disallowed it for someone else who PMed me about it.) Potable water is something that pretty much anyone can get, as pointed out in the opening description. Now, if there's something really special about your water - maybe you have a fountain of youth? - that would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 OK, I'm in, with a premeditated almost full roster. Oddly, just about the only empty slot I have in my concept at this point is the Leader. Ah well. Resource: deep-sea fish and fish oil BTW: You can burn fish oil in a boiler or furnace, and our guys do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Being the sole provider of footwear in the world would be subtly insidious. I suppose that's why hobbits evolved... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Resource pick: steel. Commish advises to specify this is using the Bessemer process, as this was the way that most steel is commercially made today. It is an older technology, but it requires a reasonably complex setup.
