So, with the new arrivals, we need to step up food production. Variety in our diets is going to be vital. Scour the plains for more edibles, grasses, small birds, snakes, anything we can stuff into our faces. We should also construct a fishing boat.

A Brickworker will shape a bucket out of clay. -To get the water for the mortar. I have a feeling just messing around with water by hand isn't going to be productive.

Picky will break the limestone into fine pieces. -Reading for baking.

Next step: Bake the bucket.

Then: Bake the lime.

Finally: Mix. Thar be mortar.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Since the events of last night have revealed that the slimes are weak to blunt force, we should have the larger rocks moved to the west side of our encampment. Also since we do not know where the stick demons come from (except that they come from trees), we should also move the log inside the moat to the outside.

Use planks to improve and enlarge to shelter. i don't think those leave are very water proof and we need shelter for the workers.

As for strategy I think we Figure out What we should do About tRading. What are we going to Sell? Are we GOing to make THings specicifly to Sell Or will we Give the Trader our eXcess Goods that we Do use. (like Our Spears and Such.) Also What Buildings we We make Next and Where will we Place them.

Two out of the Three immigrants will be drafted into the makeshift Milita and trained in Combat.

One of the male immigrants will be named Leon. And he will be given a huge facking sword at first chance.

We should have the new guys begin building several more stick, and leaf huts before night falls, and keep our digger digging the moat until the very last moment right before night falls. We should also have our people move the logs across the moat, and have them place the logs around the moat to cover as much ground as possible to make a sort of wall, but have them leave a space open to have the plank bridge. As for the rest of the people we aren't using for these tasks we should keep on their current jobs, and continue making resources except for the other soon to be woodcutter who we should have begin crafting spears for our defense at night. Finally at night we will use the same tactic
for sleeping, and guards as last time, but we need to pull the plank bridge up, and place them one on top of another, side on top of side, to form an easy to remove gate.

Ravine Plans:
After we have a good supply of planks, and 1, or 2 more picks I suggest we expand up here with 1, or 2 huts, and a simple wall to begin with. This will provide protection, and sleeping quarters for our miners who we will use to begin mining operations in the cliff slide gathering from the mine stone, and other minerals we can make stuff of, build with, or maybe trade.

Trade Goods:
I Think for here we should sell whatever spare Rolphin we have on us, and as much Greater Land Jaian milk(?) we can make, and put into buckets before the trader arrives. We could also make some stylish Slime Gel clothing, and sell them to the trader for a nice penny (Hopefully), but our best bet for money would have to be the mine I was planning in the above section.

I think its a generally bad idea to place Homes in the mysterious Ravine that we have only just discovered.

Yea... If the villagers are somehow blocked in the ravine by creatures, they'll all quickly die of thirst.

After the workers are done carrying the pots back, they should start building some houses using our bricks.

We should leave the logs inside, as to roll them when necessary, although we dont want them falling in the moat. I think that getting any spare hands to Listen to BunnyBob, if not being more open about materials used. I think that using bricks is slightly out of reach, seeing as how many bricks you need, in comparison to how many we have, and how many we can get.

I suggest the logs be moved to the inside of the moat in case something can swim.

I reckon we could build a simple cart right now.
Cut four rounded planks (cut across the log not down it). Take a strong thin part of the upper tree, attach one to two of each wheel, Make a bed and attach it to the axles boom instant cart...

I still also say uprooting one of the berry bushes and planting them inside the moat would be a wise move, just in case you know...
