Way cool how we can add based on our areas of knowledge.
I wanted to run a game with my wife and her friends when they were in University. I was going to let them play "themselves" as project members. I would assume the characters would have the same knowledge so if they said they wanted to do X it would just work, no rolling for what sounded like a common action. if it seemed difficult or they had trouble describing what they wanted to do THEN I would have them roll. My wife was going through for her veterinarian degree and our circle of friends included biochemists, various engineers, my wife's previous degree was animal husbandry. To me a pretty ideal mix of people who could actually rebuild civilization, as opposed to other groups I was in where everyone but me seemed to either want to kill everyone or rule the world.
