Damn, so much for food. Do we still have a stable supply with the fishing at least? I think I'm going to go for some agriculture using the rivers and lakes if I can. Sorry Aquos I planned to send envoy gifts but can't yet

Ooh, great round! I could have done with some better rolls, but this works nonetheless. A couple of quick questions, 1) Can I spend both of my votes voting for the same thing for a bonus (e.g. have the dice rolls add up, or you choose the highest of the two)? 2) No other tribe is in my vicinity, right? I don't want to be attacked in my weakened state. 3) Did I get access to the fishing tools of the Dwemer? Given you answer no to all of the above questions, my votes are Fishing rods and Domesticate animals. Oh yeah, before I forget, sorry for hurting you StealthStyleL, it's nothing personal, this is just how I play these types of game.

Skyguy98 : Currently you have a pretty stable supply, because you no longer have to feed all the people who died of hunger or disease, or broke off from your tribe. You create a little bit of surplus food, and some of that is traded to the Humla (but never in large quantities, since both of you have smallish populations and you don't have a way to preserve most of your foods). TheCreator : You cannot spend two votes voting for literally the same thing, but you could break up that thing into two things and spend a vote on each one. For example, instead of voting to send your armies against player X, you could vote to attack player X with one army in this direction, and another army in this direction. There are currently no other tribes in your immediate vicinity. There is limited contact with the Acirema tribe to the north, and through them, the Notrea tribe. Yes, you did, I'll clarify that in the description. Also, Evolution4weak, to clarify, you are still a tribe, but you are on the cusp of becoming a civilization and will become so next turn. It will just take one turn for your permanent settlements to develop into early cities. You can also rename your civilization if you want. In fact, all of you can rename yourselves at any point if you wish. EDIT: There were some mistakes where the title said one thing about stability, but the description box said another. I fixed all of the ones I noticed, but let me know if there are any other discrepancies.

Oh, I get it. The dice allow me to have an actual success once I have been destroyed. How wonderful!
TheCreator. Kick a guy when he's down, why don't you? You have made a powerful enemy. I vow to destroy you! Somewhere somehow.
I'd like to take over the Norica tribe. Are there any rivers or anything nearby?

Sorry Aquos I planned to send envoy gifts but can't yet no problem anyways my vote is to create weapons and hunt the creatures (can't find something better) a question NickTheNick are the priests controlling my tribe Nonzuae's it dind't make that clear in the description (sorry if i'm annoying you with this)

StealthStyleL: There are major rivers to your north and south (which also marks the extent of your tribe), and smaller rivers and streams in between. Aquos: Yes, it's that, except I hadn't mentioned the name. I'll edit it to include their proper title. Any specific kinds of weapons you want to create?

Excellent. Then I'd like to construct boats again. (Please be a success.) Hey, I should probably tell you that I'm about to destroy the Norica tribe unless they stop raiding me (assuming my shield roll is good). You might want to take that into account with this turn or the next one.

Listen Atrox. I'm not going to increase raids on you. But I need them to keep my tribe going while I create conditions where I can stop that. I foresee this as being in a couple of turns time. However, do you really want to attack me? My raids appear to have minimal effect on your tribe. You risk potentially losing out by attacking me. It's not really worth it. Besides, we could build up to an allegiance. Plus, if you make me destroyed for the second time within a couple of rounds I will not take it lightly. I trust you will make a sensible decision.

Stealthy, unfortunately I don't think you're in quite the position to be making such threats. Honestly I don't want to have to fight anyone here. Especially you, considering what just happened. So here's what we can do: I'll give you some of my cattle in exchange for sling knowledge (which I'm assuming will stop the raids because we're exchanging goods). I'll change my vote to giving StealthStyleL some of my cattle if he changes his vote to giving me knowledge of the Norica tribe's slings.

Okay, so two tribes are gone.
At what point do I get a shot at playing?

Don't take what I said seriously. I'm just kidding. Plus, I'm trying not to get killed again. I'll change my vote to exchange sling knowledge with Atrox p.s. I can make threats whenever I want.

NickTheNick quick question, are my fishing spears good enough to be considered actual spears? Also for future reference can I make a council of clan leaders with a lead chancellor in charge my government style?

Does that mean I'm out of the game? Also that wasn't exactly what I meant by despotic. I was more speaking of an autocratic/theocratic despotic government. Instead of a group of elders the rising of one leader Mondul. This of coarse doesn't matter if I'm not in the game though.

In that case may I just jump over to controlling the Ekala tribe?

1. i want a democracy like government where the people vote for a "king" every 4 years, the king have the power to make a proposal(law) and a, "Emergency Power" that let him pass a law without the voting, but he can use only once, when the king want to make a law, the people choose a person to represent them and if the king and the People both agree to the law it get pass, if ether one disagree the law don't get pass
2.food preservation(*pray to the RNG*)

Bigyihsuan : The rules are like the original game. Players continue to play after their tribe/civ gets destroyed (albeit as a different tribe/civ), but if a player doesn't post for a while or quits the game, then the next person on the waiting list gets to join. Skyguy98 : Yes, your fishing spears can be used for other purposes, but they are not like Notrean spears (which have flint spearheads meant for piercing). Rather, they are entirely wooden, with serrated edges like a basic harpoon. Yes, you could make that sort of government. February Steam of Foushoo : Nope, you're still in. Like the original game, you simply switch to another tribe/civ. An autocratic/theocratic despotic government is a bit of a redundant term, but regardless, I can change your description to add in the mention of Mondul. However, it doesn't change your outcome, because your tribe was suffering from hunger, harsh conditions, lack of resources, and competition with the Ekala tribe. Also, as a tip to all of you guys, you should focus more on votes that help with survival when you are small and tribal. As we saw with the Foukala, government forms and religious monuments do little to keep your tribe alive when they are suffering from lack of food, warmth, and game. Governments in fact are not even that helpful until you become either a very large tribe (as the Avalon were, and part of the reason they split apart is because they didn't create a government to rule over all the spread out parts of the tribe), or if you become a settled civilization, at which point you will start to develop cities and your population will boom, and you will need a government to administrate things.
