The only problem I see with that Borak, is that you would have to be able to allow more than one camp up at one time. I really don't see us being able to build semi-permenat homes as a problem, as long as they are not sellable and ownership can't be transfered.

Not sure what your addressing here. I'm basically agreeing with you. "Scout houses" would really be just another type of camp that lasts longer then current camps AND would allow us to leave, fight, harvest, etc and then come back.
This would be very useful if we are leading a group on a hunting/exploration party.
Ahh, I got you now. You sort of want a base of operations and then be able to go out further and then make a regular camp.
My guess is there won't be space for that, you step out of your 1st camp and you'll be more tehn half way to the next city. 
Exactly!
Of course if you are right about the urban sprawl Borak, then I guess we scouts will just have to find a little nook of wilderness and just get SOUSED.

Maybe as a Master Ranger in conjunction with an architect you could build a "hunting lodge". It would be mostly permanent but have a higher maintenance (moresubject to the elements) and it should be out in the boonies where the big critters live.
So a simple progression, Master Scout can build a Scout home, basically a camp that lasts a couple of days, a Master Ranger can build a Hunting Lodge....lasts a couple weeks/months. I think the Hunting Lodge should require some architect components to keep the artisans in the loop with structures. After all a huning lodge that collapses on the hunters wouldn't be to much fun, well it might be depending on the group.
The large camps that a ranger can build serve this purpose just fine. I don't think we should take away one of the only perks a ranger has by letting a scout build houses. If you want to build a temporary "home" work up the ranger skill tree. If you want a permanent home buy a house deed.
Reflen.
We weren't saying that low level scouts could do this. It would just be a longer lasting version of the camps Rangers are able to build now. I guess maybe I titled the thread wrong because I am just a scout at this time.
