AWW MAN! I would have jumped into this in a heart beat had I not been away from the computer for the last hour or so!

I want to be a migrant, BIG TIME!

Should I make my character sheet in advance?

Bad idea to make migration more palatable, somehow: Migrants get 50 skill points.

Also, I express interest in this.

Can I take insanity as a quirk?

Once tried to conquer Earth, and succeeded! Too bad it got really, really boring, really, really fast.

One day, we shall all look back on this, and laugh. Sorry about the face, by the way, and the legs, and the eyes, and the arms. In fact, sorry 'bout the whole body.

You guys can call dibs on migrants, sure. Also, this round is an instant success round due to how good a condition you're in from the nice treatment and good foodstuffs were on the ship. It's also special that, instead of a fixed stamina usage per action, it's a roll equal to your max stamina to determine how much you use, to keep things balanced. Now we just need NUKE and Siquo.

Spend as many turns as necessary converting the wagon into some sleeping-huts.
If possible spend one turn sleeping.
Spend any turns left over helping siquo make bricks.

Floirt: You tie your pick to the end of the rope and chuck it up the cliff, catching it on a rock. You scramble up and grab your pick, untying it swiftly. You drive the point of the pick through the bears mouth as it roars, and it spikes up and into it's brain. It was quite exhaustive work. -88 of 105 stamina.

SombreChapaeu: Your arrow flies straight and true, whizzing past Floirt's shoulder and into the bear's eye, through it's eye and into it's brain, and ultimately getting stuck in the head of Floirt's pick. You had to dig the bow out from under the anvil though. -20 of 105 stamina.

Pandarsenic: With a mighty heave and a show of your manly muscles, you cut a tree down so swiftly mother nature was like "sloooow down" and you merely scoffed at her. You cut away the branches and bark fairly slow though, but still managed to convert the tree into 30 very nice logs. The base of the tree was rotted, making it easy for you to cut it. -21 of 100 stamina.

Webadict: You quickly plow a small patch of land by the wagon and plant all the corn seeds into two neat rows of five. Getting the bull to start moving required a lot of shoving though. -27 of 100 stamina.

Frelock: In a display of stunning skill, you swam straight through the river and felled a tree. You turned what used to be bark and branches into a pile of fine kindling, and the tree into 30 long shafts. You must've swam through some rapids or something because that was the most exhaustive swim ever. -49 of 105 stamina.

Siquo: You fell 2 geese in their flight and take them back to the wagon before scraping up three large clay chunks from the hill, which you shape into un-fired bricks. The tree roots got in the way and made digging a bit difficult. -45 of 105 stamina.

NUKE: You move all the stuff off the wagon via shoving forcefully. You then take the wagon axles and snap them in half, setting the now four stakes into the ground as a square. After that you dismantled the bed of the wagon and scraped some shallow grooves into the edges, and lined them up with the stakes to make a simple shelter, about 4 ft tall. You take a quick nap to "test the structure" before making 2 clay bricks with Siquo.


Materials gained: 2 dead geese. 1 dead bear. 60 logs. 5 clay bricks. Tent-ish structure thingy. A small farm plot with 10 corn crops recently planted. 4 wheels. 3 large (2ft by 4ft) boards.

Materials lost: 3 arrows. 10 corn seeds. Wagon.

Construct a second shelter or improve the first one with the logs.

Which should it be, brethren?

I'd like to call dibs on a migrant. Seems interesting.

I'll take a few logs and build a bridge across the river, so I don't have to swim again.

Fire bricks using some wood in an open fire. Build an oven using the fired bricks. It can be used to cook food, and to fire bricks while using less wood than firing over an open fire would.

Rest when out of stamina. Make more bricks. How many would I need for a small shelter?

Edit: we need a place to store food first. How many bricks are needed to build a granary that can contain all our current food?

Just out of bricks, maybe... bout 20 bricks. Only 12 if you don't want the granary to have a floor. Also, I'm drawing a new picture to show updates made to the site after this turn.
