Using one Act, give the cowmen the knowledge of fire so they can not die so horribly.
Using on Major act, create a sentient race of plants.
The plants are separated in a hierarchy, all given orders by a huge 'mother' plant that exists normally in the center of a hugely overgrown area. This allows for tactics to be deployed extremely quickly and helps with colony settlement. Currently, there is one 'mother' plant, who is giving Cultivators orders to seed and care for growing laborers.
The entire surface of the Amour is engulfed in thick, choking foliage at a blinding pace. These new Pencil-Plants outcompete the original plants present on Amour with ease, spreading like kudzu out from the gigantic Mother Tree, which itself stretches several kilometers into the sky, a wooden colossus. The barely sentient kudzu-like creep covers a area, then the Cultivator Caste moves in and grows laborers to build massive irrigation canals and temples. The Pencil-Plants worship the Great Tree that dominates the skyscape of Amour, believing it to be their progenitor.
Arts and music flourishes among the Pencil-Plants, and they have even developed primitive pictographic writing on stone tablets.
With their original food-sources being rapidly wiped out by the encroaching plants, and warrior caste plants zealously defending the overgrowth, the Koppig Degenen rapidly begin starving.
But Pencil-Art is not without mercy. Upon those poor benighted cowmen he bestowed the divine gift of fire, to fight back against the plant menace.
Massive Wildfires raged across the surface of Amour, enraged bovines fighting for their very existence against the green tide. Slowly, inch by bloody inch of scorched earth, they managed to carve out enclaves where their dwindling population is scrabbling to grow food from preserved plants from before the emerald apocalypse.
The use of the stupor-drink is at a all-time high, many Koppig desperately attempting to retreat from bleak reality, and supplies are nearly exhausted. It is feared that when they run out, morale will truly hit rock-bottom and the consequence will no doubt be dire.
Koppig Degenen population is in decline.Turn 1 Ends
Turn 2 Begins
Developments:* The first fully sapient, bipedal Storm Wolves have been born, and are nearing adulthood. They are significantly smaller than their quadrupedal forebears and are starting to worship their distant grandparents and great-grandparents as gods made flesh. There are also worries about the food supply running out soon, with the Koppig population being hit so hard by the Pencil-Plants.
* As a consequence of their combative nature, Earth-Men have started killing their rivals during contests of strength, using the stones from their corpses with wood from the Great Tree to craft stone pickaxes, currently the most lethal weapon among the Earthmen.
The Earthmen population has started shrinking.* Faced with a serious resource crunch, the desperate Koppig Degenen have started culling the weak and defective from the herd, sacrificing them to Sebouin in a bid to slake his vampiric thirst and so gain his aid.
Cowmen now practise blood sacrifice. Bowtie's power income increases. They have completely abandoned the worship of landspirits, seeing the spirits as betrayers who have been corrupted by the Green Tide.
Cowpeople no longer worship land spirits, Bowtie gains more power from worship.* The Earth-Men's vague memories of Bill have begun to fade. Unless something is done they may soon forget him.
* The Earth-Men and Storm Wolves have each developed a primitive language.
