Scavenger Wisdom

Rule #2: Work in groups.
Rule #3: Always carry spare water and food, since you won’t be out at night or for extended periods, this
should be easy.

all times and act accordingly.
Rule #5: If you are alone, you die.

Rule #7: Things that hold the most value likely aren’t things that used to hold value.
Rule #8: Always prepare for the cold.
Rule #9: Always prepare for the rain. It isn’t just water anymore, it will burn and it will hurt and it will
kill. Prepare accordingly.
Rule #10: Never be caught without a light.
Rule #11: Strangers in the wildlands are likely in the wildlands for a reason. Approach with all due
caution.
Rule #12: Bullets aren’t necessarily the best choice in defense.

hell out.
Rule #15: Keep your feet dry.
Rule #16: Cities are NOT your friend.

Rule #19: Beware of bulging plastic and metal. Trust me.
Rule #20: Never carry more than you can run with.
