I'd like to take this chance to point out that the lol-cold of Michigan's winter will present a large problem for the group that can be easily rectified by going to Tennessee where it is comparatively warm most of the winter.

This is not how "cold" it usually is? How cold is the useall Michigan winter?

The usual Michigan winter (at least this year) is too cold and snowy to be traveling and/or fighting in.
The group should relocate to the Captain's compound in Tennessee.

The lowest it's gotten in my section of Tennessee this year was like 27 or so and that was just for a few days.

I said usually. Not accounting for wind chill or snowstorms. Besides, my characters will be very reluctant to leave Michigan.

Wouldnt it be better to relocate to like Dakota? Somewhat big area, alot of good soil, and not many people. The fewer zombies, the better? (Again, dont trust me too much, i dont know much about U.S geography)

The problem with the compound idea is that it robs much of the conflict from the story in favour of wish fulfilment. The Walking Dead is about how regular people struggle to survive in a world that's only getting worse and probably will stay that way. There's no military or government to wisk people away and solve everyone's problems, it's all about survivial, and the lengths people will go to achieve that, even at the cost of their humanity.

This is why I'm a big supporter of the group heading south on foot, the danger and lack of resources becomes an even bigger factor as the snow begins to pile up. It makes for the RP to be more interesting, and therefore, longer lasting.

I'm also gonna ^^this this. I think there has already been enough easy life and military. I understand that military personnel will have a higher chance of survival because of their skills, but i think they make up kinda to much of the group. There has been alot of smooth sailing. Now it seems like finaly shits going to hell, and it should stay that way. But if we go to that compound and surive there, what will then happen? Then Episode 2 will happen again. Not that it was bad or anything, but i think we don't need an entire episode about safety again. We need to be moving. Like if the cars break down. As i said, lets go far. Tennessee isnt that far. If we get a goal that can help us in long terms, but not immedality, like Dakota, i think that will be the best. Not many live there, but it will still be challenging, with nature and everything it got, and eventual hoards of zombies passing by.
