For those who STILL aren't familiar with this expanding game, here is something to read up on:
The Introduction
Part 1 - Safe Season
Part 1.5 - Strangers
Part 2 - Surviving
Part 2.5 - The Deadzone
Now, what has happened since your decision to go into the Deadzone?
Reginald Jameson has built you more weapons. Here are the grenades:

The yellow grenades are small blasts, the red grenades are fuel bombs and spread a wide arc of fire. The single blue grenade is compact dynamite, very rare, extremely destructive.
The power Rifle:

The most powerful weapon you own yet. It has the ability to fire a laser spray every few minutes. Unfortunately, the laser addition makes it very heavy, and must be carried with two hands.
A Defense Turret:

It is fixed onto the front of the base, where the Swarm attacks most. It eats up a lot of ammo, which is why Reginald opted for average ammunition gun, as opposed to a specific clip or shell.
He also upgraded the ATV:

It now has a heavily armoured trailer which can carry supplies and weapons. A person can also sit in it. It can barely fit in the base now but it is worth it.
You managed to train the Weaver too:

Your trained Weaver, Sammy has become feircely loyal to you. He is of much use, especially after you mods to him, whuch includes armour, defense spikes, a seat for riding him, and a clip for dragging supplies. You have taken a liking to him aswell.
Now EB, your decisions last voting time were these:
To go into the Deadzone.
To welcome Reginald to the group.
To train the weaver.
And to let your teammate eat a Runt first.
Now, you know you have trained the Weaver, but what of the Runt problem. Your unstable teammate ate it, and was fine, and with caution you ate too. However, Exobuilder foolishly ate a Queen Runt, which was found to have mild poison in it, and entered a mild delirium unknown to you.
Here is what happened in the Deadzone:
Your group arrived at the hellish location, finding terror, but also weapons galore, a tank, a jeep, some food, and much else.

You found all and more that you wanted, but trouble lurked:

From nowhere burst the horrifying Black Dragon, intent of live flesh:

Before he could use a grenade, your unstable teammate was slaughtered:

Exobuilder followed, his delirium preventing him from acting fast enough:

This left you, Reginald and a whole lot of equipment. Unable to get the tank in time, the jeep was used instead and a lot of goods had to be left behind in the escape:

Unfortunately, in the battle Reginald was mauled, and IS going to die. You yourself aren't faring well, having lost a leg to the beast. The trip was a disaster, but you managed to recover the jeep, fuel, radio equipment, a bit of food, a lot of weapons and the remains of the defense robot:

Reginald's time is short, but you have convinced him he will pull through. He won't. Before he dies should you:
a) Get him to fix and program that defense bot?
b) fix the radio equipment
c) mod up ATV and Jeep
d) improve base
e) build more weapons
f) be honest, tell him he's going to die
Food is also still a necessity, should you:
a) Just keep eating Runts, avoiding Queen ones
b) Just hunt Squents and Boulder crabs
c) Go into the mountains, there may or may not be anything there
d) Follow the Swarm Path, guaranteed food ,just be quick now that you've lost a leg.
e) drive the ATV or Jeep to a new spot: The Saltflats
f) go to the Wastelands out back, not much there, but relatively safe.
While searching for food, look for:
a) more survivors
b) fuel for ATV and Jeep
c) other shelters/bases
d) scrap to build up base
I've planned out all the consequences EB, so be careful. Hopefully you've learnt your lesson, seeing as a place like the Deadzone and a man who refuses to help you fight is a bad combination.
Can you survive?

Choose wisely. Thanks to Hinckley for the permission for this series, and to Exobuilder for letting me use and murder him :-D
Comments appreciated, enjoy!
