Story
The first chapter of our Odyssey now complete, the sands of time trickle until we find ourselves in a new age, the dawn of civilization. Our players are now transported into this new age with leadership in mind, as each has a plan of his own. Will they stay or will they leave? We shall find out…
Volume 2: Diffusion
Round 35, Homo Sapiens (Next round this will be removed as it is unnecessary) - 200,000 Years ago. Day 0 - Morning
PLEASE READ New mechanics and rules
We have entered a new volume, which means new controls and mechanics! We are now in the village interstage, which means that you are all leaders of your own tribe now. You have all split over time and have founded your own village. Here is how this will work:
Actions: As leaders, you command your people. You each start with 20 tribesmates who will perform passive actions on their own (such as gather food). As a chief, you can also decide what your tribesmates will do (for example, if you are low on food, you can prioritize tracking game). You are all nomadic right now, so you have to move from where you are (this will only take one turn). For the village and travel stage, you get 2 actions, but they will increase with population and achievements.
Stability: Once you form your village, you will have an internal stability rating that will fluctuate depending on your actions’ results. If your stability is low, you start losing villagers, and if it reaches a critical point, there is a riot event and, depending on the dice roll, you either stay leader or get booted, losing the game.
Research: Upon founding a village, you can also use your global action to research different technologies to improve your lifestyle.
