Not saying it did, just said one happened.

Right, but we really don't know how long it would take for that to happen. For all we know every continent could end up like the Dust Bowl of the 1930's.

I have enough 'real world' in my back yard. Fantasy/Fiction story tellers and game makers have to be able to take some liberties for the sake of the story and playability.

I agree. Not to mention, it's really depressing to read about.

Didn't mean to derail the topic.

One thought. With people living in vaults for so many years, how much knowledge of things like farming would be retained?

I'm not sure what you're saying. The skies are blue now.

I don't either, lol. Just ignore that. I still had my head wrapped around what could happen after a real nuclear war.

A lot of the vaults had hydroponics, so, farming wouldn't be a totally lost art. That, and the vault planners would be aware folks may be in there a while, so, books and such would be important as well. (though I have never seen a library in a vault..... at least, not one with books......)

That makes sense. I don't recall seeing libraries either, but I suppose they would have to plan for it.
