AFTERMATH
BUNKER TRADER
The surface is lost.
The counter is open.

06:00
Open up the bunker
The water collector filled overnight. Empty it, wipe the tables, unlock the blast door before the first knock.

Customer at counter
He wants clean water and he is selling something dirty. Trust sits at 30 percent. Every price you name moves it.
13:40
Crafting has finished
Scrap in, something sellable out. Upgrade the workshop and the margins stop being embarrassing.
17:50
Hiring hour
Four names on the board, five bunks free, and not enough bullets for the good one. Pick a team, send it out.
22:30
Surface run
Shelves are thin, so you go up yourself. Firearms, torchlight, and things up there that used to be customers.
