    Based off the geography of my area I have few options.

    So to start my turn off...

    I will send the surveyor and explorers off to look for ink,ore mines, or any other comodities.

    I will send all my foregers out and send my fishermen off to the shores.

    The rest of my units will do as they are ment.

    What are the limitations on our reaserchers? Basically, im looking to make an irrigation system, for my farming. is that plausible?

    Krunk looked about the people who had gathered and helped to make this land a home. Krunk nodded and wondered what else they could do now. They have shelter, they have food, and they have water. Krunk must spend some time thinking, decides krunk, maybe a wife would be nice?

    The Hunters of Aurg go out, to gather food and skins. They farmers begin growing there crops. The Explorer wonders out to look for metal deposits. The miners gather stone, the lumberjacks gather wood, the Tool makers begin to make digging equipment. The builders set about digging a large and wide trench around the camp, well over 100 feet from the nearest building.

    Krunk looked at this digging and ordered the dirt to be piled up behind the hole. So to make a ditch then a high. Krunk decided that this shall be called a wall and moat.

    The researchers begin to study methods of throwing spears better. Perhaps some kind of launching device, made from wood, using smaller spears and some string. (They start researching the bow and arrow, if already around, they'll start researching the longbow.)

    Edit: I'll assume 30 women in my camp if that is ok? Edit 2: Actually maybe not. Women eat 2 items of food per turn just like the men right? That means, I may run out of food >.>

    Maybe only 10 or so women.

    Maybe only 10 or so women - this is fine.

    your moat can't be dug without spades, which wont be able to be made till next turn, maybe i failed to make that clear, as it stands you only have food for the first turn.

    There are no limitations, if you attempt something without having built on a basic knowledge of it first, it will always fail.
    Irrigation system to up the output of crops would be feasible, not telling you how long it would take though.



    To all :

    You start only with a stockpile of food, no lumber and no stone. No tools can be made in the first turn and no huts or houses established - sorry i didn't make that clearer.

    Also please only read spoilers with your names on unless the other person says so.

    OOC:
    I was kind of figuring it would be dug with simple rocks to start with, but given that the builders will simply mark out the outline of the moat, until they get the digging equipment from the tool makers.

    is the research ok?

    Vigmarn looked over his tribe. It was a good tribe, but it needed something. Something more.

    The Krovik fisherman are sent to the coastline to find food, and then put it in the huts that are prepared for that purpose.

    The lumberjacks are commanded to cut the woods down, the foragers commanded to forage nuts and berries, and the miners are told to mine minerals.

    The explorer of the Kroviks is sent to survey the area, and to search for any other tribes.

    The researchers are instructed to study methods to create traps, starting with a basic pit trap.

    Grunk ponders his small tribe.

    He is worried about their food supply so he sends out his hunters and fishermen and farmers to find food for his people.

    He sees many women in the tribe (around 15) and thinks longingly of finding one to bear his child.

    He sends his surveyor out to look for mines for his people to get resources from, and his lumberjacks out to collect wood.

    Grunk is curious about the large animals which hang around his camp, he decides to call them horses and sends his researches to find out how he can use them to his advantage.

    Kett did his once-weekly inspection of the tribe, and noticed three things: the food supply was running low, so he asked the foragers and fishermen to gather more food. He also saw that some of the huts were in disrepair, so he decided to ask the researchers to find a better material than wood to make the huts from. Finally, he noticed that the workers needed more tools and materials to use, so he instructed the miners to go and mine some stone, and then asked one explorer to find more mines, and the other to find some source of civilisation, so they can be assimilated into the tribe.

    Your fishers bring in a fairly large haul : 209 units fish
    Your foragers have an average haul : 41 units of roots

    Your miners bring in 16 units of stone
    Your lumberjacks bring in 60 of lumber

    Travelling south through the forests your fishers stumble across something strange. They see a dull brown animal with two claws infront of a pincer mouth and a long tail. Trying to catch with their spears though the fishermen have no luck.

    Nothing remarkable happens to your tribe during these four months.

    Your people have enough to eat

    3 of your women fall pregnant - your leader doesn't take one to sleep with.

    Your people have enough space to live in.

    Your reseach is finished, your hunters can now dig pits to attempt to trap larger animals that otherwise couldn't be caught.

    Your fishers have a pretty bad haul and bring in 87 units of fish.
    Your foragers on the other hand have a large haul and bring in 85 units of root vegetables and berries.

    Your miners bring in 16 units of stone.
    Your lumberjacks have a huge haul and bring in 38 units of lumber.
    Your hunters bring in 74 units of food and 7 units of animal skins.

    Your explorer found some nice reddy/pink veins of semi-transparent material in a vein of stone about 40 miles away. The surveyor says he has never seen it before and will need more time to determine what it is, all he knows for now is that it is not a metal.

    Unfortunatley 3 of your hunters died on the hunt. Please mark these off.

    Your people have enough to eat

    7 of your women fall pregnant - your leader doesn't take one to sleep with.

    Your hunters bring in 41 units of meat and 4 units of animal skins.

    Explorers found a large pit with stones in traced with an orange metal through. The surveyors determine it to be copper, that is all that is found however. The miners have no idea how to mine it yet though.

    Your tribe was wracked by a huge thunderstorm for over a week during the end of December. This caused the loss and destruction of 40 lumber as well as 37 fish.

    Your farmers struck lucky and found some extremley fertile soil. When it comes to harvest time your farmers will harvest twice as much.

    Your explorers find no other mines yet do however find a sticky wet mud and then sets when dry. Your researcher finds out that it sets across lumber and makes buildings more windproof and therefore warmer inside.

    Your lumberjacks have collected 11 units of lumber.
    Your hunters have collected 26 units of animal meat and 2 animal skins.

    Your surveyor actually sits around looking perplexed, he could identify something but there is no explorer. However by a stroke of luck your woodcutters bring in a trunk that is silver inside instead of the normal dull brown in your locale and sets about identifying it.

    Your tribe had during November have 4 people walk into camp asking for refuge and claiming they could catch fish for your people.

    Your people will not have enough to eat in the next 4 months.

    From now on please contain a statblock at the end of your post. Keep in it your total amount of people - any acquisitions in the last turn and your status of how much of each resource you have.

    If i missed anything from anyone I apologise and please tell me so I can tell you.

    Kett was overjoyed at both of the discoveries made by the explorers, and sent one of them, along with one of his heirs and the shaman in order to try to make contact, and possibly assimilate the men into the tribe, or if not, to establish some form of trade. Kett sent the other explorer to search for more stone mines.
    The foragers, fishermen and miners went out and did their work, while the researchers were instructed to invent something to make defending the tribe from wild beast attacks.

    Krunk spent many hours thinking before sending out his hunters to collect more food, he has his researchers continue there work, orders the tool makers to make digging tools, for the builders to start on there moat, then sends out his Explorer to look for more people or objects of interest (metals/minerals and the like).

    Krunk also tries to get the women to do something useful and make clothes from the skins.


    EDIT: Naturally the other members of the tribe go about doing there stuff too. With the Shaman's set to study making of clothes, (or tanning of leathers, maybe hardening leathers for armor so I lose less hunters?)

    Ok so as for women, I did not know we had to specify that. I figured that was included in the populace. Well since I dont have any how do I go about getting some? I will edit my post with the new info.

    Also am I able to re-assign one of my researchers? to the mining thing? so I can mine copper? I will edit my post with the new info.

    Also am I able to change some of my men around? Because I have MORE then enough food collectors. So I am thinking more lumberjacks. I will edit my post with the new info.


    ( I have yet to give my leader a name, or RP well. Allow me to remedy that situation)

    Zur had seen the wonderous fruits of his labor from the months gone by. But now new obstacles came to be. He immediatly set about having his men work on the copper mines, and collecting more wood to make up for the recent disasterous weather. Zur has changed the position of some of his workers. He assigns a new researcher to the copper mine shaft situation. Zur was elated to hear of his wifes birth, this would give him two healthy heirs to continue his empire. Zur will use what resources he can spare to see to it his wife remains comfortable and healthy. He will also keep his people well fed and housed.Zur assigns the shaman to over see the crops the farmers will grow.

    ( if any of my above questions get answered positivly then I will edit the above post )

    Okay heres some questions answers, after all it is still a playtest to see how it goes.

    Okay retraining your guys here is what im going to say.

    yes you can - at two different speeds.

    1. You can do them straight away if you sacrifice some resources.

    Each person to retrain can cost:
    either 10 food
    or 5 lumber
    or 3 stone
    or 2 animal skins

    You can retrain by taking the cost of what people cost originally - for example 5 fishers = 5 points and retrain them into the same amount of cost of people. You may end up with less people, but tough.

    You can wait a turn and they will be done for free.

    ---------------

    I didn't say women had to be picked at the beginning in the rules, so yes you may take some now if you want.

    ---------------

    Im going to say no at swapping researchers sorry.

    Nothing good or bad happens to the tribe this turn.

    Your fishers bring in 91 units of fish.
    Your foragers bring in 73 units worth of food.

    Your miners bring in 11 units of stone.
    You have no lumberjacks
    You have no hunters

    The people found are happy to become part of your tribe, it turns out that all of them are already trained in how to be lumberjacks, and 1 of them even has a tool with him.
    The other explorer comes back with news of no other stone found within a 2 week radius, there might be some futher out, or he might have missed some however.

    The researchers figure out that they will need some lumber to test with and until that happens research stalls.

    Your people eat 100 food.
    The pregnany women are fine, but no more fall pregnant.
    Your people need more space to live in, with the recent additions and the upcoming births you will run out of space.

    Your explorer comes back from the mines injured, he will be out of action for the next 4 months whilst his leg sets.

    My huts....

    2. Research Hall
    5. Large Warehouses
    7. Large Huts -+1 in progress

    Fish:43-Counted for food consumption
    Food:44- Counted for food consumption
    Stone:48- Not accounted for tools, or building
    Lumber:61- Not accounted for building.
    Meat:45- fish and foods were eaten, meat is stored.
    Fur:4- Go to storage until I begin clothing research


    Zur sees the bounty of his tribes efforts. A beautiful thing his people have become. Zur sees that as his populace grows so to does his demand for food. As for now he will keep the shaman on farming aid. As for the surveyor he has tasked both him and the currently assigned researcher to continue their efforts. The other two researcher are to finish their work as well. With this boon of materials and food Zur sees fit to have his people construct an additional Large hut. The rest are task with thier usual chores for the season.

    Another 4 months end, the sun is shining, and the world is good.

    64 units of food


    The primary concern for Kett was space, so he instructed his builders to construct three new large huts, out of the new mud that the explorers found, and assigned the shaman to work with them.

    The foragers and fishers were sent out again, and the tool-makers were instructed to create tools for the lumberjacks who recently joined the tribe. The remaining explorer was sent out searching for new places to fish, and the researchers, unable to look into defences without having any wood, were asked to come up with a way to improve the amount of stone mined from each trip.

    Krunk sets his people to work again, worried about the lack of hunters, but confident in the soon to be incoming source of food from farming. Krunk tries to settle the people.

    Hunters go out for food. Shamans continues to look at ways to improve the buildings. Researchers either continue to work on the bows, or else move on to researching how to make water swell up from the ground (Well making).
    The explore is let loose with private instructions from Krunk that if he encounters people he is to offer than a safe home with the people of Aurg.

    The surveyor is to finish off his research into the strange reddy/pink stuff.

    The tool makers are to make the last two spades, the builders are to start on the moat and wall.

    And the farmers are to bring in there harvest this round.

    Zur sees his tribe grow greater with each passing season. It is times like these that make him proud to have such wonderful people. He sets the shama ( now called a druid ) off on a journey for medicinical herbs and to practice healing arts. He sends his first heir off with the shaman to learn under him. He commands that the tribe continue their jobs are is.

    Zur has had a breakthrough, a new farming system has been developed, the sheer idea of it makes him proud of his researchers. where as the implications make him glow with joy. Zur believes better stronger fish live in deeper waters, and sets his researchers on the task of learning to make crafts to journey further out.

    Krunk looks around at his tribe the farmers have done well, food shouldn't be a large problem any more. The builders are still hard at work on the moat, the hunters are still hunting and soon the children should be able to venture out with them to learn the ways of the hunter, an important childhood lesson Krunk believes.

    Krunks mind settling on children decides to try to gain an heir with his wife.

    Researchers will continue there research into long range weapons.

    Farmers will keep farming

    Hunters will keep hunting

    Miners will keep mining

    (and so forth for the trades)

    Builders will finish the moat

    Tool makers will start making more spears, and equipment for the researchers.

    The explorer is told to search for more metals or minerals, and if he finds any new tribes, he is to open relations with them, and see what they need and what they have to offer for trade.

    The Shaman's are to travel out with the hunters to see if they can find some way to improve the way they work.

    And the surveyor is to travel with the explorer to see if he can help him in his task.

    All unused food and mined goods will be stored. (I'll log them all during some free time later).

    Kett decided to increase the workforce on building, and also decided to increase the number of huts being built from 3 to 5. He assigned all his miners to the build as well, to try to help make the huts faster.
    Explorers were sent out looking for a new place to fish, and new places to mine.
    The Researchers were instructed to carry on with the research on defences.
    The foragers, fishermen and lumberjacks were asked to carry on gathering food.

    The cult of Innsmouth has been formed. Woe to the world for on this day your doom has been wrought!

    First, I will have my researchers begin looking for ways to improve my lumber jacking, and hunting tools!

    Secondly, I will have my heir/shaman bless the hunts of my most noble, and fierce hunters as they go to find food.
    My other 2 shamans will bless the fertility of my women, and grant luck to the foragers as they also seek food.

    My Lumber jacks will go out looking for lumber to build things with in the surrounding area.

    My miners, will journey with my explorer to go find a stone quarry, as near by as possible.
