Note, this is for those that do want to engage in the mundane, survival-type resource management. There are more fantastical variations, though: Let's say they're trekking over a long distance in the open. Typically, there's really only two relevant resources, food and water. The typical problem is that food and water are so easy to procure, but it only does one thing and that's keeping the characters fed. But it doesn't take much food at all to accomplish that. It almost feels like players have to want to starve and dehydrate themselves on purpose. But what if starvation wasn't the only thing food and water was good for? See, perhaps now they're in lizardman territory and rather than coin, they require meat as currency. Maybe even with the steep price of your own weight in food to make peaceful passage.</blockquote>
