I guess I'll be saving points.

[Bdthemag]

Also, around the tenth turn we'll switch over to the Second age. Which will be focused more on creating races.

[Furtuka]

Alright time for me to break out my signature Dawn of worlds terrain

Gentlemen! I would like to introduce you to The Hive

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I have spent 3?-6? points to create a land where the very ground is flesh, with twisting spires of bone raising out of it. The area is a single organism that feeds on the corpses of those who die upon it. However, should it be left to grow hungry , it shall resort to consuming living creatures...

[shadenight123]

I Shape land (6 to 9 points, tell me how many) so as to cover the island on the top left with a black sand desert. Only finest dark sand is in there.
Nothing else. Nothing else grows in there.
Then i cover the top half of the island with Shape climate (2 to 4 points) in an obnoxious dark and constant patch of dense black fog. It's black and it's fog.

The Hive isn't terrain, it is a "race" and thus costs 22 points, during the first age.

Also Bdthemag, do we need to create all animals ourselves, ie. do we need some herbivores before we can get carnivores?

[Furtuka]

It's not a race. It is a single being that happens to be rediculously huge to the point of being part of the landscape. It doesn't even have a real mind at this point, it just sort of automaticcally absorbs what it needs. Trust me on this, I've done this before.

If it can think for itself, then it is a race, albeit with a population of one.

[anzki4]

BTW, what about animals: are they "a race" or are they just something automatically there.

[Furtuka]

It cannot think. I just said that. It's essentially a feature of the ground that causes it to absorb the things that die on top of. And anyways it can't really do anything except sit there

In games I had played before the animals were just sort of there. We also had a house rule that creating unique/special animal species cost half as much since it didn't have much purpose besides role playing and adding personality to the location

like moss.
it's just more filled with bones.
but it won't wriggle and attack anything so...like in starcraft the ZERG had that squishy squishy terrain.

I glanced over that detail. Sorry, Furtuka.

[Bdthemag]

Over animals, you can just assume over time animals come to exist in livable climates. Furtuka's terrain is okay to use, it'll have to be a collection of bone like plants that operate with some kind of Hive Mind.

[Theodolus]

Using 6 points I ring Furtuka's fleshy landscape in treacherous mountains.
