I canât remember the exact words, I only remember they will be meeting a group in a highway(probably the S.Militia thatâs where they found Kelly too right?) if the Militia did their thing, I think Kent will be the only one left alive or probably Harriet too.
Also why Iâm hoping we could take them with us the first time we met them.
I also honestly want to have Jude(the sniper) with us too. His orders were to get Insulin and liberate the FEMA camp which was occupied obviously by the S.Militia but he lost his spotter(Carrie is the name I think?) and ever since he kinda lost hope at everything. He even requested to have Cyanide Powder given to him as a last measure to end his life.
Also, I was bummed out at first that the Supply truck was broken(Same issue with the Jeep, but itâs fair I understand), I couldâve taken everything from the place and have more people at my side, also hoping to get River Dogâs group.

Well jude should be left there because without him the grocery will be looted we may never knowa we might need to get back and get as many food as we could in that grocery store and also the reason why i want harriet group to join us because 1 theirs nowhere for them to go. 2 safety in no. And 3 so that my nephew will have someone he can play around his age. And also its kinda worrying that my nephew isquick to adapt to the new world i understand that we need to train them but let kids be kids.

Good point considering we canât take everything. I suggest we leave someone with him possibly Jillian, he sounds so unstable he worries me, he needs someone to talk to and Jillian has Search(3) and Persuasion(5) if I might add, can be a possible replacement for Carrie since he needs a spotter replacement and we need Jillian to learn to use her gun more. A working supermarket will be defendable by a great sniper and Jillian will have Ice Cream that she wants lol.

Thatâs definitely a matter of opinion, for instance I could argue as a raider player that I could just kill Jude and threaten Kent & the Family scaring them off ensuring that my group getâs most if not all the resources from the grocery store.
I heard from the newsletter that it could be possible to recruit a member but nothing about being able to recruit their whole group(which makes sense because youâd have to make sure you have enough room for those people). But you can make alliances with different groups but I donât know if recruiting a whole group is beneficial especially if neither group is set up to handle more mouths to feed.
Why would they leave those 2 alive or just let them get away ? If they somehow manage to avoid being killed by the Silverthorneâs then that would make sense. Also Harriet being left alive while her husband & kids are murdered sounds pretty crappy to me. What would be her reason to live after witnessing and surviving that ?

The Militia only leaves useful people Kent is Hunter/Survivor/Fighter type so thatâs a plus and Harriet has skills that probably hasnât been revealed yet and they can use her to hold Kent by the neck. Maybe in part 3, next time weâll see them is Kent being one of the Soldiers and Harriet locked up somewhere.
I try to take everyone possible in my saves. Iâd try to make everything workout we never know what help other could bring the group if we just leave everyone else. Food is hard at the moment but everything else is right?

I dont see the point of killing jude?? As i mentioned before we can used him to secure the grocery story. And then comeback later to get the rest of the supplies in the grocery and recruit him assuming that we are cordial with him during the first meeting.
And also yes we could kill jude but you getting a two days trip worth of good vs getting all of the supplies in the grocery later is much better. Right?? And also theirs a high possibility that the grocery store will be looted without jude to secure the area

Thatâs nice of you and you might have room for the River dogs, but if there is physically no room for you to move all of them into your base it doesnât matter if you want to make the best of a bad situation the fact still stands that youâd be overcrowded and it wouldnât be possible to recruit the whole group because you donât have the room.(Provided they actually want to join you not every group may want to). Before you suggest moving into another base the Junkyard is our new home and moving somewhere else doesnât seem possible as of right now.
Keeping one hostage alive just to force one conscripted soldier who has every reason to want to kill you doesnât sound like a good plan. Betrayal would be inevitable it would be better to just accept the fact that you canât force that person to serve you and get rid of both of them, before they become a problem later. That also applies to your theory about keeping Harriet alive if she had useful skills, thereâs no way you could expect the mother who just witnessed you kill her kids to just turn over a new leaf and start working for you without ever worrying about her trying to kill as many as you she can or just accept death because she refuses to work for the people who killed her family.
Even if Jude is there to guard the grocery store he could still be killed by a larger group and the grocery store could still be looted. Him being there to guard it doesnât mean people are just going to respect the fact that he claimed it as his territory. If anything it makes the grocery store a bigger target because someone is trying to guard the supplies that are there. As for your suggestion to get food and supplies later thereâs no guarantee that the supplies you left will just be there waiting for you what may be available one week or 2 could be gone a couple days afterwards. Not to mention that whatever food is there will rot and go bad eventually.
Him being an instable, trigger-happy gunman who tried to kill us is the exact reason why we shouldnât leave him alone with one of our group members. Thatâs a recipe for disaster and we have barely known him(in fact we still donât really know him). The only thing we have done with him is a mutual transaction that benefits both him and our group in order to prevent him from trying to put a bullet in our skull, to me that doesnât warrant enough trust to assume he wonât try to assault Jillian if we just left her alone with him unsupervised for who knows how long. I get that you want Jillian to be able to properly use/handle a gun, but leaving her alone with the crazy, lone-wolf sniper in my opinion, doesnât seem like youâd be doing enough to ensure Jillianâs safety.

Hi, someone could help me? After the tent scene, in the relationships page, the âmain romantic interest: Rachelâ disapears no matter what I choose, and I have 88 points with her. Is this supposed to happen?
With Kelly and Madison its ok:
But with RachelâŚ

Iâd guess itâs just a bug? @JimD
I agree with that, Lancelot will probably twice as far as Keithâs group and the Monument is much further and has less room.
I get that, the thing is just we donât know Keithâs methods to break people once you are there physically, he commands 80+ people and my only theory in how is that possible is through fear. Only thing plausible in my theory is if they lock Harriet up, Kent will only operate on the premise that he would do everything Keith said as long as they leave Harriet alive or even remotely. The thing with Harriet will only work If I would guess, not all of Keithâs group fully obeys him and there will be other people biding their time to get revenge.
Fair, but unstable is what a Con Artist like Jillian would describe as an easy target. The guy has probably low Willpower and Jillian can definitely manipulate that guy. Wouldnât be surprised if Jude would easily forget about Carrie for a few days with Jillian. We could even leave some gear behind when we trade with him to ensure their safety more like C4, Thermal goggles etc. they could even move everything from the hunting shop to the store for more gear and wait for us to come back a day after, a few more days I could trust Jillian could convince Jude to come back with us
Again what would be Harrietâs reason to live after her children and husband have been murdered ? Just because Kent may work for them in order to ensure that sheâs alive doesnât mean that Harriet is or would be of the mindset that she wants to live in a world where here husband and kids are deceased and sheâs being held captive by her familyâs killers so all of that work Kent could be doing to keep her alive means nothing if she actually doesnât want to live anymore meaning theyâd have no leverage to use on Kent which just gives them a better reason to kill him before he finds out that Harriet is dead. Also it could be possible that the people who genuinely support the Silverthorneâs ideology outnumber the people who were tricked and became the laborerâs meaning it wouldnât be that easy to stage a revolt.
Your plan seems too reliant on the fact that Jillian might be similar to his deceased sniper friend. How would that work when we hardly know nothing about Carrie(personality wise) to actually confirm that her & Jillian are anything alike ? Just because she was able to persuade him to stop shooting at us once, doesnât mean he considers us his friends or more importantly will actually stop to listen to Jillianâs suggestions. If we go back to the grocery store again whatâs to stop him from trying to kill us if we donât have supplies to trade that he specifically wants and he doesnât feel like sharing/giving us supplies from the grocery store ?

That and the fact Jillian could totally agree with him and go away with all the supplies. And you with that choice are selling her to a dude like she were meat to have another soldier. That would make you same level Silvers

Again, REVENGE I very much think Harriet is a much stronger woman than we think she lets on. Subtle indications that she has strong willpower is that she has more control on the situation than Ed when you were at the hunting shop. If and only if she is smart and calculated, this would turn a bide for time waiting for the right moment and if not, then Iâm wrong in my assumptions.
Iâm not saying to put on makeup then boom! sheâs Carrie but just be close enough as a replacement to get into that guyâs head. Jillian knows to act obviously aside from her level 5 Persuasion she was also probably trained by Lyle on how to act since Lyle used to be an aspiring actor. Also, she witnessed first hand on how to be a spotter from Kent when we are first searching where Jude is. She has Search level 3 and will probably act the part. A silver tongue will be my only solution here to keep everyone alive and probably bag another capable fighter in my command.
Just because she received a brief lesson from Kent, doesnât mean sheâs all of a sudden an expert who can assist Jude in sniping(sheâd definitely need more training before sheâd actually know what sheâs doing) . Improving a skill takes time and people learn at different speeds. As for your dressing her up idea we still donât know Carrieâs mannerisms or personality or what she wore to at least make a decent attempt at manipulating Jude like that. Provided he even has a positive response to some chick he just met impersonating his dead friend in a ploy to manipulate him into joining her group.
Honestly that sounds like an excellent way to make Jude or anybody for that matter enraged or disgusted by you & your behavior because youâre manipulating the feelings/emotional vulnerability of a person who just lost their friend/loved one in order to get something of use from them. Imagine trying to use that tactic on Tommy or Reilly if he lost his mother, neither of them would have a calm or poised reaction to what you were doing in fact I wouldnât be surprised if they tried to kill you(and itâs not like you could blame them).
I never said I considered Harriet to be a weak person, we donât know enough about her to start saying sheâs either a weak or exceptionally strong person. Iâm simply stating the fact that people react to loss in different ways and your whole theory/plan is built on the possibility that she might want revenge but you havenât taken into account any other possible ways she might react. Meaning your theory could easily be undone simply based on the fact that she doesnât respond to the loss of her family in a way that can be useful to you.

I did say to ACT the part, and dude, the guy is suicidal, better hope to convince the guy to join a cause than for him to kill himself if he feels like it. He clearly is just waiting to die and have no more goals left. His family are all dead, his friend/partner is dead, heâs just waiting to die holed up in that grocery store with no purpose. By getting Jillian get to that guys head is a not so much as long shot that we might think he just needs a stick to hold onto, he even listens to reason for the most part when you decided to parley with the guy, heâs just lost a lot of trust in people and I think Jillian, whatever may others think of her will do the job.
but you implied before that
The only way my guess would work is just me hoping that sheâs strong willed. You could be right, Keithâs group will just straight up kill her if sheâs already broken to the state that they canât use her. But what do you guess would happen to their group if they meet Keithâs group? everybody dies?
