The ConvictG 15

Before loading up the RV and leaving Trumbull County for the third time, make sure you are playing as a character you will want the most in level 3, such as your best hero. Unlike reaching level 2 where you were able to bring 5 other people, this time it will only be you and Lily leaving. Also make sure to go through every character you aren't bringing with and transfer all items in their personal inventories into your main inventory otherwise they will be lost. Plus the added score to your influence won't hurt. Once you reach level 3 you'll want to start unlocking characters and finding survivors right away and find a new home base. With only you and Lily in your community, your options will be limited. I chose the Alamo at first just to have a homebase but didn't stay there long. Once I got more survivors in my community I moved to a better place. The best place would probably be the Snyder Warehouse which you'll need 10 survivors and 50 materials to relocate to.
