Milestone

Milestones are indicated by a heavy-lined unfilled box on survivor and settlement record sheets and have special rules that occur when the box is filled in. Milestones can be reached by individual survivors or by the settlement.

Survivors trigger milestones as they gain hunt experience, courage, understanding, weapon proficiency, or as they develop other traits and attributes.

The settlement milestone story event section on the settlement record sheet includes many milestones, such as the settlement first birth, its first death, and for when a settlement's population reaches 0. Some campaigns have milestones that are unique to that campaign. When a milestone is reached, fill its box, and immediately trigger the corresponding settlement event.
