A.C.: AFTER COLLAPSE BASIC EQUIPMENT

No matter where you live or what you do, you’ll want certain supplies to help you get by.

Everyone needs to eat. They also sometimes become ill or are injured. Whether food and beverages are prepared by people locally or fabricated items from before the Collapse, the calories gained by consuming them allow people to function for another day. Medicine, whether natural or technological, can make them more likely to recover from whatever ails them.

A.C.: AFTER COLLAPSE GADGETS, DEVICES, AND COMPUTERS

One question that explorers may want to answer is whether technology is all bad. Tales abound of rogue Artificial Intelligences (AIs) that thirst for mankind’s destruction in retaliation for past wrongs. Is any tech safe to use, or is Big Brother always watching, waiting for a chance to strike?

Whether Survivors want to defend themselves from others or take what someone else has, weapons are useful tools to have. Not everyone has access to firearms or explosives. Low-tech weapons can allow opponents to be disabled or driven away instead of killed.

A.C.: AFTER COLLAPSE PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

Some of the tools that can help salvagers, scavenger, soldiers, or ordinary people overcome the challenges they face come in the form of Personal Protection Equipment (PPE). Whether as body armor for combat situations, firefighting outfits, or filter masks for toxic environments, the right PPE can allow people to live through situations that might otherwise be seriously hazardous to their health

A.C.: AFTER COLLAPSE PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

Savvy explorers know that finding loot is only half the challenge. The other half is keeping it. Whether it’s to protect an enclave, hold on to what you’ve found or built, or taking things from someone else, the intimidation factor of small arms makes them some of the most desired weapons for the job.

Whether you’re protecting your home and family, exploring the ruins of civilization or simply travelling from place to place, it sometimes takes more than sheer will to succeed. Defending yourself from those who want your possessions - or your life - may require you to rely on something more than strong language.
