@Cagye_bee 1. I’ve put a lot of thought into it, and so far I’m leaning towards “Everyone else agreed to first nuke the shit out of the US, so now Canada allied with the EU and Mexico allied with the communists are fighting over whatever’s left. But there’s still a US guerilla resistance, led by one Weorge Gashington. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, the EU and the communists are fighting each other”. Or China+Middle East, Russia+Pacific, EU+Africa, and one big America in a 4way free for all!
- The “one big wasteland” setting isn’t exactly about dealing with people, it’s about finding a new way to survive. In this setting, it’s about dealing with people and corruption. So society and major cities will still be there. Also, CEOs wouldn’t be able to make a profit off of a wasteland.

So there’s your class of nine kids. They’re all at high school level, the youngest being 14 and the oldest being 17. When were they taken into the orphanage? Childhood to mid-teens. Your job is to give them the equivalent of a high school-level education in addition to soldier training. When they are of age (“of age” not by your definitions, mind you), they begin their next level of education, which is also part of your job.
There’s two female heterosexuals, one male heterosexual, two male homosexuals, one female homosexual, two male bisexuals, and one female bisexual. If you count that up, you should realize something’s wrong. If you find out, then…I’d have to deny everything while pleading the fifth. Also they’re all from different countries. Yay for diversity and special snowflakes!
In addition to that, these are just the kids. There will still be coworkers and city dwellers. So, anyone with a full name, you can romance.
Also, Kids R Us Orphanage makes KRUO. And I get the feeling someone might say something along the lines of, “Their ages are completely different from what I thought they’d be. Why’d you lie to us?” My response to that would be, “The age for a child soldier/sex slave is still up to 17-years-old. And while some people might be fucking toddlers, please, who’d really find all that baby fat attractive? It’s the teens to mid-teens, mah homie. Which is why they’re either going to be dropped down to middle school, or stay at high school. The game takes the span of one year, so, hm”.
