Hey! I too wanted to run an Italian resturaunt (while employed with my earlier job; maybe I'd be a lawn ornament on the night shift--or the other way around, however it goes), oh well, all I can say then is: can I have your autograph? Just sign there on the X. Attaboy...HA! It was the deed to resturaunt! Sucker....gets 'em everytime, the old "gimme your autograph, oh shit looks it the deed!" gag.

I'll build robots and design control systems. In the evening, you may glance a blurred figure of a man on a bike, racing through the village towards the woods, and at the same time yelling "free, AT LAST". Don't worry, he's harmless.

Also, I'll ensure that no spam enters the village, ever. Only natural, fresh, European meat will be allowed.

Civil?! This village is made up of people from here! The word civil has no place in our little world...

If by shack you mean reinforced bunker capable of withstanding direct hits by Pershing IIs, then yes.

I'll probably be doing crazed genetic experiments along with Valdemar and setting up an IT shop.

The shack conceals the entrance to one of the access tunnels. Hopefully no one will notice that fact that the river doesn't freeze anymore because of the reactors cooling system.

See above, though defending against the idiot hoards really calls for a nice ditch, in front of the bastions.

I'll own the local beach and be a part time lifeguard and swim instructor, and by part time I mean maybe a couple times a week. I'll be spending the rest of my days swimming in the ocean (it's a seaside beach of course) and biking with my BF and all the other stuff a woman like me would do. Oh..and anyone that fakes a drowning to get me to do CPR on them will be swimming with the fishes so to speak, though fishfood would be a more accurate description.

Oh yeah, that's right. It's our town, so we can get together and do mercy killings. Can't wait for Hovid to visit.

What? You mean, we paid for an entire armory and now we're just going to keep it in bunkers? Phooey on that--let's use it on something.

Just decided that running a still ain’t good for my health.

So I’ll just set up a full service dive shop close to the water complete with a nice speedboat for daytrips to some close sites

I'll mainly be offshore in my personal ocean liner, the SS Normandie. If I feel nice, I'll send over the lifeboats to ferry you people over for wild parties.

I recommend that Destroyerville be located on an island, that way the HAB can field their coastal defense craft to ward off attackers.

Darkstar would be the village idiot. The Horesemen would be the Village Idiot Abuse Squad. :twisted:

Seriously, I'd be a student at the local uni, probably favoring courses from Marina's department. I'd probably also join the local militia, just for the sake of getting some military training.

In my spare time, I'd be digging an underground tunnel into the local library, so I could steal the books at night. :twisted:

Have a very nice day.

Will the "village" have electricity and indoor plumbing?

If not, I think I'll pack my bags and move to Spacebattlia. I hear they have good sushi. :)

The bunker is quite full with various necessities, spam, hypersonic nuclear weaponry, and random shit. Though I guess you could modify part of the chemical weapons lab, maybe sleep down by the anti logic reactor core, you'll need lots of tinfoil for that.
