Conflicted is a game which consists of multiple decks, each deck containing 52 cards, and on each card is a question. The setting is in an environment where some catastrophic event has occurred. Could be nuclear war, World War III, horrible disease, economic collapse, but regardless of the scenario, no form of government really exists or if it does it is unable to help you. No calling 911, no cell phones, no internet. Its just yourself, maybe friends and family, and possibly a small group of people who can help you. Not necessarily Mad Max/Post Apocalyptic, but cohesive civilization with modern technology at our fingertips is essentially over.
Every week I will post one of the cards (selected at random), and each participant writes a response to what they would do in that situation or how they might handle it. I will let the thread run for one week, and then post a new question. Post as much as you like after giving your response. Debating and analyzing is part of the game! I won't be playing as I am the one running the game.
There are no right or wrong answers as the game is about hearing how people could navigate a stressful or perilous situation.
Deck 1 - Downfall: Two of Hearts
You see a large mob breaking into your neighbor's house. You know he is there with his wife and children. You have about two dozen rounds of ammo, roughly one for each mob member. You are the only person capable of defending your own family. The mob passed your house and didn't notice you at all. Would you step out of the shadows and risk your own life to help your neighbor or would you stay safe and protect your own family? Why?
The idea of war is not to die for your country, it's to make the enemy die for his.
