Ah, you’ve experienced the Vermont portion of the Champlain Valley. Naturally, this is where the population of Vermont predominantly lives today. It’s also where the productive farmland is, not surprisingly. If you’ve seen all the farmland, you understand why I think the GDW guys must have had a very rushed job of trying to get Howling Wilderness out the door. Vermont probably can’t sustain its current population without electricity and petroleum, but 25-40% of the current population should be possible if most of the population works at food production.
