Foragers:forage
Normals:evolve into farmers

[Rolepgeek]

Are you serious.

I have basically zero more food from last turn?

Goddamnit.

Everyone forage

[Ozarck]

((GM: arkitect should have an upkeep of 215 and I should have 220, I believe. We each have 100 one upgrade ants for 200, and he has a L2 queen (5+ 10) while I have a L3 queen (5+15). Right?))

Foragers forage, Diggers dig Burrow south from previously dug burrow, L2.

Are you serious.

I have basically zero more food from last turn?

Goddamnit.

Everyone forage

Let's see: 100 foragers + 75 other = 375 intake. Fall, so no bonus, except the random bonus. Consumption: 100 L1 foragers = 200, 25 L1 breeders = 50, 25 L1 diggers = 50, 25 basic = 25, L3 queen = 20. total consumption 345.

Net gain 30.

Foraging is the heart of this game, and you need a lot of it.

[Rolepgeek]

Yeah I know that Ozarck. I'm annoyed that I might not have enough to last the winter. If I'd upgraded my other normal ants I wouldn't have had enough leftover anyway.

[fillipk]

No its just 5, then 10, then 15, though I could change that...

[Arkitekt]

It does matter in a long run.
I thought queen should take 5 + 5*level. Now I have level 2 and it's basically 15 food.
Ants upkeep is 200, so I can't see any reason to have 225 total.

now, autumn 2:

queen evlove -15
50 breeders breed
50 foragers forage 5 hexes +150..200
50 normal appear
upkeep 50*2+50*2+50+5*3+5 = 270

1026..36 -> 891..951

next, autumn 3:

50 breeder evolve tiny -100
50 normal dig burrow SE lv1
50 foragers forage 5 hexes +150..200
upkeep 50*20+50+50+5*3+5 = 220

891+ -> 721..833 / 660 needed for winter

[Kashyyk]

I'm so screwed.

Farmers make a farm. Diggers dig a burrow se of the current Burrows.  Everyone else forage.

[Megggas]

(Since farms are created from burrows, do I lose the ant and food storage capacity of the converted burrow?)

50 Farmers create a farm.
50 Forages forage.
If I lose my burrow by converting it to a farm, then 50 Basic Ants dig another burrow in the hexagon 1 tile south of of the tile containing my single western-most burrow.  If the farm still provides the ant and food capacity, then all Basic Ants forage.

[fillipk]

Yes, yes you do

[Kansa]

Everyone forage

[Fr0stByt3]

I'll join in. Just let me read up on everything that' sharpened so far.

[Tomasque]

I'm sorry, but I'll have to drop out. It's not that I have a lot of RL stuff or anything, but I simply no longer enjoy this game. I can't think of any sort of strategy, so I end up sitting in front of my computer for 5 minutes and then just write in whatever action comes to mind.

[Sheb]

Norther group of scouts move due West.
Southern group of scout move South-West.
Queen evolve.

Foragers and breeders forage.
Diggers are eaten for food.
