Sacramento
The majority vote on year seemed pretty clear that the whole intent of leaving in 1850 was to be a late-comer to the gold rush, so this seems pretty obvious.

Independence, MO
According to Wikipedia, this city is nicknamed the "Queen of the Trails" because all the major trails went through here. Sounds good.

Large Wagon
No real reason, so just picking the middle ground.

Gunsmith
The namesake of our brave leader, Commander Keene, carries a raygun at all times. Seems appropriate. Also, from a meta-gaming perspective, this gives a nice starting pile of money; let's not jump too far into the deep end in game 1.

Adventurer
Making dumb decisions, getting fired halfway and then spending months criticizing our successor for his decisions? That's the most American way to handle things!

Thirding this.

 Keep 4 and toss the rest. It's the only one that doesn't look scary.

 We floundered in shallower water, so caulk and float. What's the worst that can happen? :derp:

Ropes and chains worked on the last hill, it will work again.

Increase fluid intake

We should still try to win. That way the deaths will be sweeter.

This.

For the true Oregon Trail experience, we need not seek death for it will find us at the most RNG times.

Oops, late.

Kerp active. We haven't gotten far enough to let someone dig into our medicine or laze around.

Increase Fluid Intake. No slowing down, just chug more water, coffee, and whisky.

Gotta drink it before it ends up on a hillside or in a river!

Unless it has, in which case double-team is due for a win.
