Anything can be interesting anon, it depends on how you execute it. The main question is where and when the focus of the setting would be.

Somewhere in the USA or Canada, shortly after the eruption, dealing with the rapid breakdown of society and the environment? That would lend itself well to a disaster movie kind of story, small groups of ordinary people suddenly fighting to survive as the world falls apart around them.

If you wait longer you have a kind of post-apocalyptic scenario in the United States. Masked scavengers scratching a living in cities half-buried in ash, raider gangs driving around on snowmobiles, that kind of thing. People settling in and learning to live with it.

Elsewhere in the world might see a breakdown of international order as countries fight for increasingly scarce resources. It could make a pretty tense setting, as the situation grows slowly worse and people realize there isn't enough food left to support the global population and start to get desperate.

Check out Ashland on /k/

I'm pretty sure that's where he came from. /k/ has been wanting /tg/ involvement with it for a while now.

Why is everyone talking about this?

Is this yellowstone guy new?

>>53918315
It's because yellowstone got hit by a bunch of earthquakes

>Notice me /tg/, notice me.

You can take any post-apocalyptic setting and tie it into the eruptions.

Not /k/
Im mostly interested in the old world seeing as NATO no longer exist, russias greatest threat is gone,south korea is now wide open, and a bunch of US soldiers are all over the place with no government to hold the down

Soldiers have, and always have, held the Government in place.

>>53917574
would anyone want to play it after the eruption actually happens?

>>53918785
So Europe has another min ice age?

>>53918302
Is there a reason we don't want that? I like the idea.

>>53917574
Yes, though it really depends on your execution.

>>53918250
I'd figure the midwest would do better than that map implies. I don't think ash itself would be that big of an issue and we would be able to ride out earthquakes without issue.

>>53919014
I can't think of one. I browse both, though I haven't been on /k/ for a few weeks.

>>53919058
You don't understand the magnitude of ash your dealing with
The midwest was shit already imagine it covered in all that fucking ash

>>53919058
>I don't think ash itself would be that big of an issue
Anon we are talking ash 1-3 feet deep throughout most of the Midwest. EVERYTHING green will die. The Dust Bowl will look like a dirtdevil by comparison.

>everything green in that area will die
Well if it's that bad in the "outer" ashlands then I'd figure it would be bad enough that next to no one else would be surviving in the US in general. Maybe the east coast would have more, due to winds and the Appalachians keeping ash away. Not so with the southern portions like Texas.

>midwest was shit
Well that's a weird way to spell "eastern and western seaboards".

>Texas.
Texas becomes the Lone Fort State, building a giant wall with the Texas Expeditionary Force marching out of it's wall.

>>53918250
I remeber that thread. I came up with some decent ideas in it.

>>53919646
Post them. I want to see some of my pasta.
