Very well written NS. I'm impressed.
Getting a very dwarven vibe from it all, definitely unique.

My only concern is the population to food production ratio.
I assume that most people have their own little garden and that foodstuffs is rationed to some degree?

Concerning food: yeah, there's definitely rationing, and there's definitely a little bit of a food problem. Nobody eats REALLY WELL, but people eat and survive. It's a problem they'll have to tackle.

As noted, there are some big farms and ranches and hunting grounds, all government owned. The idea is that people from the community actually join in and help get the food, and then they also have their own little private gardens and the like.

The dwarven feel is basically just me trying to show off how cool the Pueblo architecture is, especially that of the Ancient Pueblos. (If anyone tells you they're called the Anasazi, don't listen. That actually means "ancient enemy" or something like that.)

EDIT: Oh - am I free to post my NS in the character section? I can add a note under Resources about food being a little tight.

EDIT 2: I also wouldn't be averse to reducing the population number (and subsequently the military number). Any preference on this?
