actually it would be 4 as he already has 2 global actions.
edit: oh you already said 2 EXTRA not 2 total.

Okay I think we have decided that we will skip OoferDoofer’s turn and make a new round, then give him two extra actions

> **Story**
>
> Two new nations emerge from the dark, presenting themselves as the Hollow Sandpeople and Kugellandians. Although they may be young, it doesn’t mean that they are negligible. Civilization is right around the corner for one nation, ironically being the one that would normally be extinct in another more familiar timeline. Metallurgy is also starting to take shape all around the world, as tensions rise and alliances form around the new arms race. However this situation plays out, it’s sure to be interesting…

> You task your warriors of finding another village they may offer a gift to. After a long trekk, they find a militarised nation presenting themselves as the Marcellians. They are naturally hostile and untrusting of visitors, but lower their guard when you offer them the gift of wall-making. They will no longer be hostile to you. In fact, since they are very militarily focused, the walls have more value to them, so they are now amicable.
>
> You task your farmers and herders to increase their food yields. They come up with a fertilizer by repurposing cattle droppings to improve the soil with nutrients, which in turn increases crop production, raising your population.
>
> Also, you were revisited by the Laestrygonians. Their natural cheery demeanor was instead replaced by a weary and tired figure, suggesting they had to sail for a long time with little rest, as if they were chased off. Their misadventured did not however affect their sales pitch, and before long, you had traded your knowledge of walls for their knowledge of bronze. Your trading also increased your population and your relations with them.

> You task the fishing village of Xirimiri to develop a new way of preservation so that the fish may last longer. After leaving a bowl of seawater in the sun, one of them came back to see the water had completely evaporated, leaving small crystalline residue. The dust tasted salty, so he sprinkled it on the meat to see if it would enhance the flavour, but left it out in the sun in a hurry because one of the boats had to be docked. When he came back to the salted fish a few days later, he realised that it hadn’t spoiled, but had instead dried up and shriveled, thanks to the sun and the salt. This new salted meat is preserved for much longer, so you can stock up on more goods during the winter, which increases your population.
>
> The fishermen of the capital didn’t take up smoking, because the plant they burned was pepper leaves, which would burn their lungs and eyes from the smoke.
>
> The rest of the villagers tried to figure out a way to get around that was easier for their feet. They dug the dirt and lined pathways to the different buildings to make dirt roads. These roads are upgradeable, and will give a +2 to infrastructure rolls and If you set up a trade route, it will give +3 to trading rolls.
>
> At first, your villagers were sent to the Bananarama, who promptly chased them off when they refused to trade their bronze. Not wanting to come back empty-handed, the merchants stopped by the Hellenes, who welcomed them as warmly as they could. They traded goods, and in exchange of Laestrygon’s bronze, the Hellenes taught the traders how to build fortifications. All this trading increased population and your relations with the Hellenes.

> Your fires weren’t powerful enough to smelt metals as they were, so you tasked your builders, philosophers and labourers to find a way to improve them. THey discovered through experimentation that by blowing on a fire, it can be more powerful, so the team built an oven that with a bag attached to it that you can squeeze to pump air into the fire, making it strong enough to melt basic metals.
>
> Your fishermen catch a lot of fish from the salty ocean, so when they left a clay pot of seawater in the sun and came back to pick it up, they found nothing but a pile of speckles left. The water had evaporated, leaving behind salt, which is tasty on its own, but also very useful to for food preservation. When you salt a fish and dehydrate it, it stays edible longer, which increases your food stores, increasing your population.

It was a very important observation, which led him to task his people to make their fires so powerful, that not even rocks could stay solid! They went to work, tinkering and experimenting, and finally discovered the invigorating properties of air with fire. So, they built a sack which they can squeeze to blow on the fire, so that it may roar with strength and melt the most tenacious of low-tier rocks!

## Sorry for the longer wait time, the power went out so it took a lot longer. Normally these only take me a little more than 2 hours to do.
## Also, do you guys want to wait for everyone to enter civ stage together or have some people be in different stages to be more realistic?

Thanks for the round!
I’d like everyone to got to the civ stage seperatly, as that would add more challenge and responsibility
So the new people become either farmers or fishers, if the number can’t be divided equally make the extra person a builder.
Action 1 [builders and farmers] : build a farm
Action 2 [rest of the tribe]: upgrade the tools to bronze tools

I think it wouldn’t be fair for the players who aren’t far enough to simply ignore them as civs can abuse their lack of power and that would break the game.
You can still research things after you’re eligible.

So i guess i have to make an action (How do you get two actions help)

Action 1 - Make half of my population research a better weapon

You can have as many actions as you want, but they have to be divided by your population. You can also just have one action, which adds no negative to the dice roll, unlike splitting population. The way it works is if you have 50 population and put 30 of your people to do one thing, the roll will get a -3 because it is missing 3 groups of 6 people (it’s groups of 6 because it’s calculated by adding one for every 10, starting with 3 for 20, then 4 for 30, and so on…). Does that clear it up?

Ok I want to trade and improve relations with the marcelinians
I will create a new job of builders and they will be 10 people
My warriors I want to raise to 20
My farmers to 15
My blacksmiths to 5
My miners to 10
My traders to 10
And my inventors to 8
I want to discover pottery with the rest
