Day 9 evening
The heat wave shows not sign of letting up as evening progresses so you push on as well as you can.
Improvements:
You now have padded arm guards for everyone. This will give you some protection on your arms and does not weigh you down.
Going over the ideas you seperated out those that you can do now from those that need resources you do not yet have. Now you have a idea what you can and can not do about gaining access to more crates.
Possible now:
Dismantling is possible on the crates(wooden and metal) but it would be time consuming and you can not do it to shipping containers.
Building a ton of handholds on the crates and lifting with a dozen people might allow you to shift the crates. While this might work with the wooden crates you have no way of attaching handles or the like to the metal ones.
Needs more resources/actions first:
Looting a forklift would need you to scout the surrounding areas better.
Rollers needs a source of pipes or strong wooden rollers.
A frames need a better supply of wood
General actions:
Having spent most of the day going over the log book you now have a list of areas to avoid and some idea of the damage being done inside them.(gained list of areas to avoid)
Listening to the radio provides you with a shock. They have made a limited repeal of the looting laws. The limits is that looting is allowed only where it is abandoned or uninhabited and you are not allowed to sell your loot. This shocks you as the looting laws were made to control peoples reactions to disasters and allow people to return to their lives once the disaster is over. With this they are basically telling you that they do not see the possibility of people returning to their lives from before this disaster. You are now fairly glad you do not have a better idea of what is going on with the larger groups out there if this is the governments response.
After you raid on the ambulance station you decided that keeping Bangers at a distance is a good thing. Working with replacement handles from the garden supplies you put together some spears as they are fairly simple to make. Half way through someone mentions how boar spears keeped the boars from pushing up the spears to kill hunters so you add a cross bar to your spears for a similar affect.(Gained boar spears)
With both the forge and smoke hut built you know you will need a source of fire wood some time in the near future. While the building wreckage in the next yard can be used in the forge you dare not use it in the smoke hut or for cooking so you ask for ideas.
The first and most obvious ideas was to break down the wooden crates for their wood. This would both provide wood and give you access to some of the crates that you can not access right now. The down side is this is very limited and the boards might be useful for other uses.
While this warehouse is not built of wood many building are you could try to rip them apart but first you have to find a building at least partly make of wood.
Trees are wooden but there is a lack of trees this deep in the industrial district. If you find some you could cut them down.
You decide to organize your tools to make them easier to find and prevent damage. To this end you make tool trays out of Lego. This is an easy and peace full way to pass the time and lends a bit of color to the warehouse.(Less damage to tools)
As you begin to clean up for the night you receive another group of survivors.(gained 4 people)
Rumors:
The government seems to be losing ground in the areas around major cities.
The Bards point out that the longer you take to raid the fishing shop the more likely it is that someone else will.
Night:
The night passes peacefully just before you fall asleep you realize that you can not hear any fighting tonight.
