So if you are stuck on an island and all you have is your pocket RB to entertain you, which pages do you start with to make a fire, wipe your rear, etc.? Don't tell Pete but I think I would start with Chapter E (notes pages first of course) and maybe move on to CH B hoping I would retain all the terrain rules. So where would you start?

Snow rules go first. Don't need those on a desert island.

Wipe your ass with it when on a deserted island with the entire ocean as your personal bidet? Let's be reasonable and make up a situation that might actually happen: "you just got a bag of really great weed, but you've run out of rolling papers . . . which page gets burnt first?"

And, btw, it's the Chinese chapter H--all the weapons come from other countries anyway.

The ammo vehicle/convoy page in Chapter E. E21/22 to be exact.

Ok - you guys made it past the first night with your one or two pages (not sure Brian's count :). Now the harder choices come in.

"Good people don't take drugs" they say these days. We need another situation. :cool:

No it wasn't.

[edit: you're supposed to start arguing, that's the point of the forums]

It couldn't be helped. The puny-armed pocket RB tribe was doomed to be devoured and eaten by predators while their manly-tomed brethren dominated the lands. It's science!

That's not what happens. In a limited environment the smaller breeds can survive better on the limited resources. They are also harder to find and hunt down.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insular_dwarfism

It may have occurred in humans, the Homo Floresiensis, aka "Hobbits" may be an example.

Now if there was a subject I wasn't expecting, it's the evolutionary advantages of the pocket RB...

Well at least we haven't run out of threads on the forum. And while I suspect that dwarfism as an evolutionary advantage might be a bit of a stretch, I hope we were at least able to get a laugh or two.
