The world

96% Complete…

The Drought

Over time, the Drought only got worse. Many Creatures died, unable to find food or water. There was no hope…

Lake A Becomes Dried-up Lakebed A

False Salamander: No extra food from eggs/endosymbiosis in temperate patches.

All creatures: -5 Sustainable population (increases each round)

The Fungus
The Fungus has now been partially reduced, now almost eradicated.

Fungus Health: 1/9 (-1 per round, -1 per immune system mutation)

The Fungus lowers your sustainable population depending on it’s health (9-7 is 3, 6-4 is 2, 3-1 is 1, 0 is 0)

Immune systems reduce The Fungus’s health, and reduces it’s damage to you by 1.

All creatures: -1 sustainable population.

I advise trying to reach Tier 1 within the next 3-7 rounds…

Also, I should say, the Wreck is a later game thing. It won’t be that useful until around Tier 4 or Tier 5, or Industrial/space stage.
