Alright, here's the update. Didn't intend to take quite this long, especially for this short update, but it's not like I can do anything about it now.
Anyway, we start building a Village Hall, the smallest of the administration building line. It increases the maintenance costs of our city and increases crime as well, but gives a free specialist!
Then we develop music.
And dance. Now we just need to research Personal Adornment and we can invent disco!
The gatherer finishes the first part of the path.
We invent ritualism, the first religious tech in the game. We could change our religious civic from Irreligion to Folklore now, but I decide against it.
Apparently we're not the second most cultured civilization in the world anymore...
We invent cultural identity: There's us and them, and we're better than them so we should kill them and steal their stuff. By the way, the elder council will increase our science output by more than five beakers.
The trail is finished. I switched the order of carving and skinning around because we don't have the resources to benefit from skinning.
And here we research carving.
And here's the finished Special Stone Workshop providing us with stone. In case you're wondering why it took so long after we finished the path, it's definitely not because I misclicked like an idiot. Definitely not.
Geen heads out to hunt and spots his first victim.
And captures it! That's great, that is! I don't do anything with the bird yet.
He then kills another eagle.
And then he spots a Neanderthal! No doubt the same one that killed MonkeyHead! The coward retreats rather than face Geen, however.
And finally...
So the question is, what do we do with the bird? We have several options. We can use him to build the Myth of Birds, which provides +1 beaker of science. We can use him to build the Song of the Sky, which also gives a beaker of science and is a prerequisite for building the Nazca Lines. Or we can use him as a military standard, which increases the experience of most units built in the city. There's also the option of using him for a small food and production boost or a small culture boost, but those options aren't as good.
Right, I'm gonna take a shower and grab some breakfast, then I'll get another update up.
Damn, my sleep schedule is seriously messed up right now.
How un-DeGaulle of you. The DeGaulle way of doing things is "Spit at that tub I haven't used since moving in, grab some wine and drink the bottle for breakfast."
My ancestors named an entire day after bathing. Of course I'm going to bathe.
