===================================
"You would not believe the crap people keep in their desks. Coffee mugs, empty wrappers and a danish that is five years over its expiry date. Almost like a war came up and people forgot about it. We found the building and won the lottery. Relatively clean, dry and not inhabited by crazy cannibals looking for a snack. We cleaned it out good and didn't need to shoot anyone in the process. A good day by my standards."
The first order of business is to find a place to stay. Iov has taken a hit and needs some R&R time (rest and recovery, in this case. No one has time for vacations anymore), meaning it has to at least be semi-livable. The team could try to find lodging within the city but putting up 10 people will quickly become expensive. I have a family of five, now with an additional girlfriend for my son, so I know how it feels. ;-)
The easiest and cheapest way would be to move into an abandoned building. There are enough empty buildings in the city that you can just move in. The only kinks in the plan are what you will find in the building and can you keep it. That only time will tell. Finding the base will also give us the possibility of trying out the new base building rules (Thank you again, Free League), so off we go.#
The group will want to be too far on the outskirts, as they will need to enter the city often in order to trade and find the spook they are looking for. Living too far out also means you will only occasionally benefit from any ORMO patrols that may pass by. You are on your own (again).
A good spot would be in the neighborhood of Nowy. The central storage facility for food is nearby and an abandoned block is centered on some of the main streets. There is a battalion HQ and several checkpoints nearby, which means there is a definite ORMO presence in the area.
