All right, one WITS roll for the balloon/tent project is sufficient. Doc instructs the rest of the Bunch on how to turn a balloon into a portable tent.

Bluth and Stacob have nothing in their saddle-bags, so they volunteer to transport the tent between them (you've been volunteered ¬_¬)

That's a 13 on the die, so 12 for Wits.

That's a 4 on the d8, so 7 total.

Oh, you'll find food either way...but passing the test saves you additional trouble.

Roll me a d6 now, to see what game you and Jinx find...
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Scrancher will break off in a different direction to go hunting on his own with his rifle.

Is the balloon material waterproof? If so, could we use a small part of it to fashion a portable water sack or similar in case we struggle to find water one day?

It's rain-resistant, but not use-as-a-waterskin waterproof.

Fair enough. How about the burner mechanism - could that be fashioned into some kind of heater and/or explosive device?

Or... flamethrower?

Cumflutter announces to nobody in particular that he'll shoot any man dead that tries to eat Rufus. He'll bring the pig on a food forage and use his powerful snout to find berries and edible roots.

3 + 2 on a D4
Are my efforts to be ignored!?!

Could the Doc make something from the balloon fuel even?

Think you needed to make the Wits check on a d20 roll before those d4 rolls...

The balloon's out of fuel. No portable camping stove for you!

You still find something...there's just going to be some trouble when you do.

You find d4 worth of berries/roots etc. with the aid of Rufus' snout. Your d4 roll should just be a d4 roll. Not + or - anything.
