I’ve got two concepts I would like to implement in Wasteland, primarily regarding the ILC.
The first, is the Victor Scrappers, a sub-faction of the Scrappers Guild. This trade group primarily specializes in agricultural products such as refurbished farming equipment and fertilizer, although they also supply the ILC with weapons, such as mortars, machine guns, and small arms.
The second, which I expect to be slightly more “controversial” would be a super corn, affectionately known as Maize. This corn would grow at 2-4 times the speed of regular corn, however it would require 4-8 times the nutrients in the soil. Because of this, it could absolutely ruin someone’s field for years if they couldn’t keep it fertilized. This way, only members of a stable state, such as the ILC could risk to grow it. It would provide the ILC with rapid growth, as they could give farmers equipment, fertilizer, and Maize Seeds in exchange for high taxes on their output. They would get that a equipment from the Victor Scrappers, promising them a portion of the output as well.
I don’t think any other current factions could support this crop, as they are all too focused on other matters (destroying each other), so it could be considered a little OP for the ILC. Any input from people is appreciated.
