((Wounded workers can't work, right?))

Dipnoi Republic
Tragedy! One of us has been wounded, and the bounties of the swamps are decreasing... Dire, dire times are upon us!

2 Workers research Mud Survival in I6
3 Workers forage for Food in I7
1 Worker forages for Reagents in I6

[Nirur Torir]

Ah hahahahaha! Power at least! Tremble, weaklings, and know fear.

Malvol spends 3 FP to Zap a Xekarni pop. Over mere seconds, it will experience dozens of battles, painful defeats and hard-won victories, and come out a skillful spear warrior.

For 5 FP, J5 will become a Darkwolf Forest. An excellent hunting ground, but beware: The hunter can easily become the hunted.

[Supernerd]

The Jotun Oligarchy are only mildly annoyed at the Wolves actions, and are proud that their size is working in their favor for the first time in their short existence! The are aware that it is the "Year of the Wolf"... But the Jotun Oligarchy does not really know what a "Year" is. As such, they decide to stick together until they are sure the threat has passed.

While the Giants have only mild concerns about Dire Wolves, they are considerably more wary of the Mammoths in the south. While it certainly seems that one of their patron gods, Farsky, has a plan, the Jotun Oligarchy decides to leave the mammoths well enough alone until they understand them better.

With a considerable stockpile of food, the Jotun Oligarchy decides to do some research so that they can ensure that they will continue to have ample food supplies in the future.

Looks right to me.

3 workers forage at C4
5 workers begin research on "Orchards"

(If you want your people to forage, you must specify the tile co-ordinates! This means you Leodanny. And also you for some reason 0cra_tr0per)

Wounded workers need to spend a turn recovering.  However, if you have 3 reagents (or some other way of healing), you can use them to heal the worker, and then perform an action with him.  Gods could do a healing Zap, which would allow you to use the worker the same turn as the zap.

Actions that use a tile should have the tile specified.  "Home tile" or whatever isn't good enough.  In the early part of the game, I'll let it slide for those who aren't yet familiar with Gridhood.

5 workers begin research on "Fruit"

Is that a typo?

[TricMagic]

Fruit: Don't think so, but I think he needs to be more specific..

Research Fruit Growth for Example. That way they know which all ready to pick each day, streamlines their gathering and netting them more, more regularly. At least that's what I would type..

Good on them being somewhat immune to the wolves. I would suggest Research Clubs or Axes though. Treecarving maybe?

[Supernerd]

I do not believe that I typed the word "Fruit" incorrectly. There is a special tile adjacent to my home tile that specifically produces fruit. Is there a problem with the research topic?

Edit: I am going to change it because the GM made even the slightest implication that its not an ideal research topic. That's a recipe for a disaster in my game!

I have no problem with someone researching "Fruit."  However, when the topic is vague, the outcome is more likely to be something you're not expecting.

So when you say you're researching Fruit, does that mean you're sitting down and examining fruit, considering its fruitiness? Because stone age people understand that fruit is tasty; no research is required.  Or are you trying to domesticate fruit trees?

edit: Okay, I see what you mean now.

[Supernerd]

Actually, the logic of researching "Fruit" was specifically to get something I wasn't expecting. That way I could research what I did have in mind after that if I got something else!

But now that I revealed what I had in mind, so the GM will now start to consider it.
