Haven't played in years. But back in the early 80's, we played a lot. We also played a made up game we called "What's in your pockets?". It was based on the assumption the nuclear SHTF scenario just occured. You're where you are when the group decides to play (your basement, school, etc). Your character is you, with only what you have on you. What do you do? (We called it that, because anyone could start a session by just asking "What's in your pockets?")

It isn't so much an rpg, like D&D, because we didn't quantify it. Though I didn't realize it at the time, it was a way to reason out the consequences of needing to survive with only what you have on you. When I found ETS, it was like, "EDC? Oh, so _that's_ what you call it." <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> After doing this a while, I'll bet we were the only 15 year olds walking around with lighters, flashlights, string, pocketknife, etc.
