Title: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Zazmio on May 23, 2018, 08:24:05 pm

Welcome to Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!

This Gridhood is going to be similar to Supernerd's Gridhood: Bay12 edition (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170029.0).  However, there is one major difference -- Gods can now have an aspect, through which they can gain additional FP's!  I will bold any differences from Supernerd's Gridhood.  Players are advised to read the rules carefully.

Those of you not familar with Gridhood, I suggest you take a look at Supernerd's Gridhood to see how the game progresses.  Basically, you have civilization players, and you have god players.  Civilizations settle in a tile and have workers they can use to perform actions, such as foraging a tile, researching a technology, or praying to a god.  Gods can perform divine deeds such as creating land at a tile, creating weather, or zapping people; however, they are limited in what they can do by the amount of FP (Faith Points) they have, which is generated every turn in several different ways.

Note that in Gridhood, new rules get added as the game progresses, and players are advised to check here frequently.

Things do not happen until they appear in a turn update.  Thus, it is impossible for new civilizations to appear on the first turn, as there is no land.  For conflicting actions on the same turn, such as two gods creating land on the same tile, the first action posted takes precedence.  FP spent on actions that conflict with another is still used.

I will try to update this at least every 2 days, though it is always possible that I will get busy with something that causes a delay.

Some notes about inactivity:

Every player requires some book keeping, slowing down turn processing.  Even the gods; every turn has to be scanned through to see if their aspect gets triggered.  Inactive players increase GM work and turn processing time without contributing anything in return to the game.  Therefore, players who are inactive for 3 or more turns -- even gods -- will be removed.

You don't necessarily have to take any actions to avoid removal.  Simply posting to express interest in the game is sufficient.  If you are on vacation and can't do anything, but still want to play, post in the thread saying so.  I'll let players on vacation who still want to play stagnate for as long as they need.

Playing as a civilization

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

To start playing, pick a tile to settle in.  The tile can't be occupied by another civilization, and must exist -- it can't be a blank tile.  Thus, no civilization can start on the first turn, as there are no land tiles created yet.

Then, pick a name, and pick a color that is not in use to highlight your name.  Highlighted names are important as they help me find your actions in the thread.  You may also pick a trait for your civilization.  The trait is one simple word describing what your civilization is good at.  For example, "Farmer" or "Warrior".  Your civ will get a small bonus related to your trait.

An example of civilization creation:

Quote

Name: Grognor Federation
Trait: Alcoholic
Starting Tile: C6

At start, you have 5 generic workers.  Each worker can perform, at most, one action a turn.  Multiple workers can be combined to perform one action, such as, "3 workers forage for food on B3".

You are allowed to take actions with your workers on your first turn.

Every turn, you must include your Civilization name, preferably highlighted in your color, before you list your actions.  All actions that take place in a tile must have the tile specified.  Thus, "1 worker forages for food" will not work, but "1 worker forages for food at A2" will.

An example turn:

Quote

Grognor Federation
1 worker prays to Blarg
2 workers research pottery
2 workers forage for food at F5

Some typical actions you can take are:

- Forage at a tile.  At the beginning, you can only forage for Food.  Other resources might become available, depending on what you have researched.  If no resource is specified, it is assumed to be Food.

- Research a technology.  All technologies require multiple "labors" to complete.  The amount needed depends on how advanced the tech you are trying to get is, and you will not be told in advance how hard it is.  If I deem a tech too advanced, I might give you research into a less advanced tech instead.  When a technology is completed, I will tell you what the effect is; it might not be what you expected!

- Pray to a god.  This will normally add 1 FP per worker to the God's FP pool.

- Attack a civ at a tile.  Consider carefully before you do this.  Most likely you will need to prepare yourself by researching technologies before you can expect a positive outcome doing this.

Civilizations can now hunt!  Workers must be armed with some kind of weapon to hunt.  Example order:  "1 worker hunts at A1 with 1 crude spear."  Hunting does not reduce efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Fishing can also be done at tiles with water, such as rivers, swamps, beaches, or mangrove forests.  Workers must have a spear or some kind of fishing tool.

Note that, with the technologies available to you at game start, you can only perform actions in your starting tile, and in tiles adjacent to your starting tile.

Some actions require "labor," which refers to the labor of one generic worker.  Thus, an action that requires 3 labor to perform should be worded as, "3 workers action at whatevertile."  For some actions that require lots of labor, such as building a farm, the required labor does not necessarily need to be spent all on the same turn; thus, a big project such as a farm, if it's been researched, could be built over several turns.

Civilizations have a stat called "Logisitics," which refers to the number of actions you can take a turn.  You can't take more actions in a turn than you have Logistics for.  If you attempt more actions than you have Logistics for, I will ignore the excess actions you listed.  Remember that multiple workers can be combined in one action.  At start, all civilizations have a 5 in Logistics.

Housing:
All civilizations start with the technology "Primitive Buildings" researched, which gives them the ability to create primitive houses in their settled tile.  Civilizations start with 10 primitive houses in their settled tile.  Civilizations must have enough housing in their settled tiles to house all their workers.  If they don't have enough, bad things will most likely happen.  There can't normally be more than 10 houses in a settled tile.

Food:
Food is a very important resource.  Civilizations start with 10 food.  At the end of every turn, one Food is consumed for every worker in your civilization.  If you don't have enough food to feed your workers, bad things will happen, among them starvation and the death of your workers.  3 Food can be spent to create one worker.  Newly created workers can't work on the turn they are created.

If a traumatic event happens on your settled tile -- for example, a god creates an active volcano there -- you might be given the option to relocate to a new tile.  Uprooting your civilization this way will have serious consequences.

Playing as a God

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

To start playing as a god, pick a name and a color to highlight your name.  Then you must pick an Aspect.  Your Aspect must be one simple word.  Your Aspect is what gets your god excited!  It determines what bonus FP you get from events in the game, so choose carefully!  Aspects are described in more detail further on.

An example of god creation:

Quote

Name: Blarg
Aspect: Swampland

You start with 3 FP.  (FP are Faith Points.) You can spend this FP immediately, or save it if you want.

FP is spent on divine actions.  You can't normally go negative in FP, so attempting to spend more FP than you have will result in nothing happening.

Typical actions:
1 FP can be spent to create a basic land (or ocean) at an empty tile.  A basic land is pretty much any land that isn't very special, such as forest, plains, mountain, ocean, or desert.

3 FP can be spent to replace any existing land with a basic land.  Any land can (normally) be replaced this way.

5 FP can be spent on a special tile.  This can be created at any tile, empty or otherwise.  A special tile has special properties, such as very fertile land or very dangerous land or slightly magical land.  It can be just about anything within reason, but if it's too good, I might double the amount of FP required, or more.

Multiples of 5 FP can be spent to increase the power of a special tile.  This can be spent on adding to the power of an existing special tile, or for creating a new very powerful tile.  Basically, the more powerful the tile, the more FP you'll end up spending.

2 FP can be spent to temporarily alter the weather of one tile for one turn.  We're talking basic weather like rain here; more dangerous or magical weather will cost multiples of 2 FP, depending on its severity.

2 or 3 FP can be spent to Zap a civilization's workers.  If 2 is spent, a worker becomes wounded and must spend a turn recovering.  If 3 is spent, a worker is killed.  Alternate kinds of Zaps can be done, even beneficial Zaps, for 3 or more FP.  You will have to discover what you can do with it through experimentation; more powerful Zaps will cost multiples of 3 FP! Gods can't normally perform more than one Zap a turn, and gods can't specify which workers are affected; it's always random.

Healing Zaps:  A Healing Zap costs 2 FP.  Unlike other Zaps, you can specify which worker to heal.

Multiples of 2 FP can be spent to protect a tile, and any inhabitants of a tile.  For every 2 FP spent, 1 point of protection is placed on a tile.  Any gods who attempt to change the weather, the tile, or Zap it's inhabitants will first have to spend 1 FP per point of protection to destroy the protection.  However, gods can ignore their own protection, or can dispel their own protection, for free.

Artifacts:  It might be possible to gift divine artifacts to civilizations.  You will have experiment to find out!

Recovering FP:

Gods always gain 1 FP at the end of a turn.

Gods also gain 1 FP for every basic worker that prays to them in a turn.

Gods also gain FP if events happen in the game that are relevant to their Aspect.  For example, if your Aspect is Death, you will gain FP when workers die.  If your Aspect is Birth, you will gain FP when workers are created.  If your Aspect is War, you will gain FP when civilizations go to war.  The amount of FP gods get through their aspect will depend on how rare that event is.  For example, if workers are created more often than they are destroyed, a god of Birth might gain 1 FP when a worker is created, while a god of Death might gain 3 FP when a worker is killed.  The FP gained through an Aspect might vary from turn to turn, depending on how common the event has been in the game.

There is one caveat to FP gain through Aspects, though.  Gods will not gain FP through their Aspect from events caused by a god on the same turn they are caused.  In other words, a god who Zaps a worker to death will not cause the god of Death to gain FP, because the deaths happened on the same turn as the Zap.  Likewise, if a god creates an active volcano on a civ's settled tile that causes deaths on the turn it is created, the god of Death will not get FP from it.  However, if that volcano tile causes deaths on later turns, the god of Death will get FP.

Gods can now gift FP to other gods!

Gods can now do Divine Projects!  A Divine Project is a tile, artifact, or creature that probably has a high FP requirement.  Give the DP a unique name, describe it, and add at least 1 FP to the project.  Other gods can add FP to the project if they want, and FP can be added on the same turn that the project is created.  The project persists until it has the required FP to be created.  Nothing is created in the world until the DP gets the required FP.  You may ask the GM how much your project will cost, and the GM will give an approximate amount, if he's feeling generous!  Attempts at spamming pointless projects might have unfortunate consequences!

Artifacts and creatures can be created with FP!  The rules are similar to the creation of tiles.  You must specify the tile where they are created.

Creatures and artifacts explained in more detail.

Creatures:
For 1 FP, you can make a single, nondangerous, boring creature such as a donkey.
For 3 FP, you can make one dangerous but boring creature such as a tiger, or a herd of boring nondangerous critters like horses or harmless snakes.
For 5 FP, you can make a magical and/or very dangerous monster/creature/foe of some kind.  Example:  An Ogre or a Troll.  Or a pack of dangerous but otherwise nonspecial critters.  Example:  A pack of dire wolves.  Or a herd of nondangerous but kind of special critters, such as a herd of talking swamp zebras.
More powerful monsters will cost multiples of 5 FP.  Example:  A Fire Giant or a Demon would probably cost 10 FP.  Beezlebub, Lord of the Flies, would probably cost around 20 FP.

Artifacts:
5 FP minimum.  For 5 FP, you get a basic magic object, such as a magic sword.  Excalibur would probably cost 15 or so FP.  Or non-weapon/armor artifacts that alter workers, tiles, or the weather in limited ways.  Tech level is currently limited to early medieval era (no gunpowder).

Spoiler: The Bronze Age (click to show/hide)

Welcome to the Bronze Age!  The following are rules clarifications and changes specific to this age.

The setting is approximately 1000 years after the end of the Stone Age.  The gods have been dormant all these years.  The events of the stone age have become myths and legends.  Some doubt that they happened at all, and a few doubt the existence of even the gods.

All of the civilizations' workers from the stone age are gone.  The legendary workers of the stone age are of that age and are long gone.  Civilizations' techs have been changed some.  Many of the techs have been merged, changed into something similar, or are "stone age" versions of that tech.  "Stone age" techs are relics from the Stone Age; better, more modern versions of the tech are waiting to be researched.  Some buildings from the Stone Age remain, but are labeled "of the Stone Age."  Stone Age buildings are inferior.  It is recommended that you research better versions and upgrade them.

Artifacts from the Stone Age are now "lost".  They are still in the world somewhere, but must be found again.  Most have the same properties they had in the Stone Age, but it's possible that some might have been changed by the event that ended the Stone Age.

The map is now different.  Tiles now have an exploration level.  The exploration level runs from 0 to 100% and is noted in the lower left corner of the tile.  A tile's exploration level is raised by workers exploring the tile.  A civ's settled tile is always at least 50% explored.  The exploration level might be reduced after minor changes to the tile, and the exploration level is reset to 0% if a tile is completely changed.  The GM will use his judgement to determine if a change to a tile is a minor change or a complete change; a change of the terrain type, for example plains to mountains, will generally be considered a complete change.

Tiles must be explored to at least 50% in order to see what the tile does.  The properties and effects of a tile will still be there; it's just that the players won't be sure what effects there are until the tile is at least 50% explored.  Note that Amastay's Wrath at the end of the Stone Age might have changed what some of the tiles do, so looking at an old turn report will not necessarily tell you what that tile does.

Exploring tiles might also result in some kind of event happening to the exploring worker.  Being attacked by bandits is a possibility.  Another possibility is discovering a location in the tile.  Locations can be searched by a worker; they might contain lost artifacts, which might be guarded.  Searching at locations is often dangerous.

Locations
Locations are now a thing.  A location is something like a palace, a cave, or a grotto.  They can be revealed through exploration, and can also be created by the gods.  The rules for creating them are similar to those for the creation of artifacts; 5 FP minimum, FP cost increases with power.  The main difference between locations and artifacts is that locations can't usually move, and can contain creatures and artifacts.  Of course, when a god creates a location, they must specify what, if anything, it contains, and must pay FP for those things.  Like artifacts and creatures, locations are separate from the tile they are in, and might remain in the tile if the tile is changed.

Heroes
I couldn't really think of a good way to do heroes, so I decided to nix that idea.  There might be more legendary workers, though.

God Dormancy
I couldn't think of a way to do it that was interesting without adding needless complexity and making the gods wait for several turns.  At the start of the age, all gods are considered to be just waking up after 1000 years of sleep.  Feel free to roleplay that if you want.  All gods start the new age with 1 FP.

Modified Tile Costs
Changing the tiles is still allowed but it now costs more.  Changing to a basic land type now costs 5 FP.  Special tiles that used to cost 5 FP now cost 10 FP.  Special tiles now cost 5 more than they would have in the Stone Age.

Modifying the Climate
For 5 FP, you can change the climate of a tile without reducing the exploration percentage.  Plains can be changed to desert or swamp or tundra.  Forest can be changed to Jungle or Taiga.  Mountains can be changed to Snow-capped mountains or... arid mountains?  Any special properties of the tile stay the same when you do this.  Flat land must stay flat, hilly must stay hilly, mountainous must stay mountainous.

Weather
For 2 FP, you can make it rain on a tile for 1 turn.  This should increase the farming or harvesting yield in that tile for that turn.  It most likely won't impact hunting, fishing, or ranching.  Alternatively, for 2 FP you can make a drought on a tile for one turn, which will reduce farming and harvesting yield.

For 12 FP, you can make it rain or drought in a 3X3 square.  That's a savings of 6 FP!  All tiles must have the same weather when doing this.

Alternate weather can be done for 2X the cost or more, depending on the power level of the weather.

Hasty things
From now on, all tiles, artifacts, creatures, and locations appear at the end of the turn when created.  They appear after everything else has been done, such as food consumption.  Thus, none of these things can take any action such as moving or attacking on the turn they are created.  For tiles, the land is considered to be the previous land type until the end of the turn.  For example, civ A forages for food at a plains, and a god changes that plains to a desert on the same turn.  Civ A will still get food there as if it was a plains for that turn.  Another example:  Civ B is attacked one turn by a giant.  God C creates an artifact sword for Civ B on the same turn.  Civ B can't use that artifact when fighting the giant that turn because it doesn't appear until the end of the turn.

However, there is a way around this.  If you really, really want something to take effect at the beginning of the turn, you can specify that the tile, creature, artifact, or location is hasty.  This adds an additional 10 FP to the cost of the object.

I do not understand what Maximum Spin is talking about. I was referring to the GM's comment telling the person to pick a trait and resubmit. This seemed odd to me because I was under the impression that you couldn't submit a civilization application for a nonexistant tile, and the GM's words in that post appear to contradict that.

You must specify which tile you are foraging at.  Also, everyone starts with 10 houses, and the maximum you can have is 10 with current technologies.  So there is no need to build houses.

I'm gonna play as a civilization this time and I swear to god if angry neighbors make my life hell.

Also, can you please not put letters over tile names? It's a better idea to put tile info in the tile spoiler like with Supernerd and Nirur's edition, which use detailed tiles and not just solid colors with letters over them. Cmon.

The Orassan Empire, a race of cold-dwelling humanoid catpeople, wait before they find a suitably cold place for themselves to live.
Their natural coats of fur are thick enough to let them easily survive in the cold, but also not too thick to the point where they'd burn up inside a more temperate area.
Their fur colors, patterns, and other features can be anything a real world cat would have.

Quote from: dgr11897 on May 25, 2018, 08:14:21 pm

Actually mabel, my plan can wait, for now i have a simpler gift for the jotun.
But for in a few turns i have a marvelous idea here it is,
(not an actual action, me showing my write up for the tile, also how much would this cost?) Farsky Creates the land of falling stars, a single large meteor crashes at the center thrumming and crackling with mystic energy, Any animals that approach are struck with this energy, mutating them into twisted humanoid forms, just slightly larger than the average villager. As it's name suggests this tile is constantly under light meteoric bombardment, most burn up and are harmless but occasionally one will impact glowing with similar mystic energy to the central meteor. When an animal approaches it they are grabbed by beams of energy that pull them into the meteor, at which point they start glowing with energy and the ground closes up over them, sealing them away. After a gestation period they burst out of the ground, having become massive demihuman monstrocities Known as demon lords, bearing the sinister glowing payload of the meteor that created them. These beasts bear some of the abilities of their base animal, in addition some of them posses mystic powers, crackling with green lightening, they vary in size, however all are at least a bit taller than a jotun villager, however they can grow much taller. The creatures grow more powerful the longer they are let to stew within their tile, this includes "demon lords" who tend to grow larger the longer the tile has gone without being completely wiped of these beasts. All beasts that are created here follow a few general behaviors, they are hostile towards outsiders (villagers, but not other animals), but not each other, and seem to group up around the largest and most powerful of these creatures, forming impromptu armies for these "demon lords". These groups occasionally leave their home tile, but this is fairly rare, When slain a "demon lord" provides an immense amount of meat, and if slain alone in single combat their energies flow into whoever defeated them, augmenting their strength. In addition their bones, and the crystal that created them, are magical, slightly.

wooh that took a while to write. Jotun tribe, I designed this so you can (not easily but can) defeat these guys in single combat, while other tribes will have trouble actually killing them due to their strength and minions. In addition this would, (probably) give me and mabel FP, which lets us help you more (the tile has demihumans, titans) This would go on E4

Traits' exact effects are a mystery.  One can use common sense to guess what they might be.  All traits give  at least small bonuses to something.  In the case of maluses such as your Jotun's increased food consumption, the bonuses outweigh any maluses.

Though it's similar to Supernerd's Gridhood, this is a different Gridhood with a different style.  I've decided civ colors in the turn post aren't worth the extra effort, though that might change.  If you don't like it, you don't have to play.

Post by: Supernerd on May 26, 2018, 01:27:41 pm

I am going to point out a couple of things.

First of all, there are not actually any rules in place that permit gods to pool their FP to do a single thing. It might still work (or at least not penalize you if you attempt it) though.

Second, if a special tile is "Too powerful" the rules state that the GM can make it cost more than just 5FP. If I was the GM, I would definitely count the meteor thing as exactly this.

Third, remember that it only takes 3FP to replace a tile. Any other god would be able to undo your 5+FP of work with only 3FP. Doing so would not only get them favor with other civilizations who might not appreciate the tile, but it would also undo your efforts.

And fourth... Having to keep track of different traits for each individual worker might put stress on the GM. We want GM stress to be low to reduce the odds of this game dying.

I will allow pooling of FP into a big project, and gifting of FP to other gods.

I assume the rest of your post has something to do with dgr's special land proposal, which I haven't had time to read through yet.  A tile involving meteors and all kinds of other things that impact workers and stuff outside of the tile will most likely be very expensive, costing many multiples of 5 FP.  Something adding major amounts of record-keeping probably won't be allowed.

Spoiler: textwall describing tile (click to show/hide)

Actually mabel, my plan can wait, for now i have a simpler gift for the jotun.
But for in a few turns i have a marvelous idea here it is,
(not an actual action, me showing my write up for the tile, also how much would this cost?) Farsky Creates the land of falling stars, a single large meteor crashes at the center thrumming and crackling with mystic energy, Any animals that approach are struck with this energy, mutating them into twisted humanoid forms, just slightly larger than the average villager. As it's name suggests this tile is constantly under light meteoric bombardment, most burn up and are harmless but occasionally one will impact glowing with similar mystic energy to the central meteor. When an animal approaches it they are grabbed by beams of energy that pull them into the meteor, at which point they start glowing with energy and the ground closes up over them, sealing them away. After a gestation period they burst out of the ground, having become massive demihuman monstrocities Known as demon lords, bearing the sinister glowing payload of the meteor that created them. These beasts bear some of the abilities of their base animal, in addition some of them posses mystic powers, crackling with green lightening, they vary in size, however all are at least a bit taller than a jotun villager, however they can grow much taller. The creatures grow more powerful the longer they are let to stew within their tile, this includes "demon lords" who tend to grow larger the longer the tile has gone without being completely wiped of these beasts. All beasts that are created here follow a few general behaviors, they are hostile towards outsiders (villagers, but not other animals), but not each other, and seem to group up around the largest and most powerful of these creatures, forming impromptu armies for these "demon lords". These groups occasionally leave their home tile, but this is fairly rare, When slain a "demon lord" provides an immense amount of meat, and if slain alone in single combat their energies flow into whoever defeated them, augmenting their strength. In addition their bones, and the crystal that created them, are magical, slightly.

Just to let you know the process I'll try to use for determining FP cost of a special tile.

For 5 FP, you get one special effect, such as increased fertility, monsters, active volcano.

So we have a tile that makes monsters for 5 FP.  But how powerful are these monsters?  Extremely powerful monsters would cost 10, 15, or more.

The monsters gather into armies.  That's very powerful.  Say, another 5 FP.

The monsters gift food and special powers to workers that defeat them.  5 FP for just food, 10 or more FP for special powers gifted.  Though, since the monsters are powerful and hard to defeat, maybe not so much FP added.

The monsters leave their starting tile.  +10 FP.

So we're looking at 25-40 FP to make this tile.

The entire tile idea is a bit of a mess in my professional opinion. If your goal is to help the Jotun Oligarchy, then here are some ideas.

If you want to provide the Jotun Oligarchy with food without making it easy for other civilizations to get to, you can make some fruit bearing trees that grow fruit about 12 feet above ground level. A giant can reach up and grab it, but a normal person would need to jump or climb.

If you want to give a blessing to the Jotun Oligarchy and not others, you can change their home tile. This will be difficult for other civilizations to interact because its already giant infested so you don't need additional monsters.

If you want to harm other civilizations, you can replace tiles near them with less useful tiles. For example, if a civilizations trait is sailing you can remove the water tiles near them and replace them with say... Mountains or something.

An alternative way to harm one civilization and not others is to consider their differences. Instead of complex demons, ordinary animals can suffice. Solitary predators tend to avoid dangerous prey if they can so they would be less inclined to attack the Jotun Oligarchy. A similar idea would be to put piranhas in the water to make sailing more dangerous as the Potato Pirates would take to the waters much earlier than the Jotun Oligarchy.

... I should play as a god in the next Gridhood game that pops up.

I am giving you a tile that is basically that now, i just really want to do something cool, i can change most of it to get it to work, primarily by making the giant ones be the main/only thing spawned, and not having them leave the area.

Post by: Zazmio on May 26, 2018, 05:50:06 pm

I just want to say, hopefully without compromising GM neutrality too much, that dgr is on the right track.

What I mean is, this is one kind of thing I expect gods to do; that is, use their FP to create tiles or whatever that cause them to gain FP through their Aspect.  So Farsky, aspect of Titans, would be smart to create tiles that create giant or titanic creatures, since he could theoretically gain FP when its creatures cause "events".

If Farsky just wants to help the Jotun, it would indeed be cheaper to simply create a fertile tile they can access.  But that might not cause "events" that trigger his Aspect.  All I'm saying is, he's on the right track, and other gods might want to think similarly.

Yes, Exactly, AND CAN NOBODY SEE THAT I AM GIVING THEM A DIFFERENT TILE THIS TURN, ONE THAT IS ACTUALLY USEFUL FOR THEM.
This is also the reason i made them demihumans, to entice mabel to help me make it, since it would give her FP too.
And why I am doing a tile that spawns giant monsters specifically is
1. because it is really cool
and 2. because the beasts are hard to kill and will thus offer a challenge to those who would attempt to best them and gain their power. Though i will remove the smaller monsters and just go with it spawning giant monsters from time to time.

Noteworthy tiles:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

C4:  +A grove of large trees that forever bear fruit+

Godly actions of note:
For 5 FP, Farsky creates a grove of large trees that forever bear fruit at C4!
Blarg creates a mangrove forest at J1, and a swamp at J2.
Malvol creates a plains at I4.
For 3 FP, Nagas replaces the tundra at B3 with a desert!  Then he creates a swamp at I7.
Farsky's and Mabel's attempt at creating a tile fails with no loss of FP.  However, it prods the GM into creating new rules!

New rules created!

Gods can now gift FP to other gods!

Gods can now do Divine Projects!  A Divine Project is a tile, artifact, or creature that probably has a high FP requirement.  Give the DP a unique name, describe it, and add at least 1 FP to the project.  Other gods can add FP to the project if they want, and FP can be added on the same turn that the project is created.  The project persists until it has the required FP to be created.  Nothing is created in the world until the DP gets the required FP.  You may ask the GM how much your project will cost, and the GM will give an approximate amount, if he's feeling generous!  Attempts at spamming pointless projects might have unfortunate consequences!

Artifacts and creatures can be created with FP!  The rules are similar to the creation of tiles.  You must specify the tile where they are created.

Farsky acts
He starts a divine project on the land of falling stars at d5, he puts 2 fp into it (warning, wall of text, want to make sure I get the idea across, how much would this cost roughly? Wait, no that is too ambitious

Spoiler: write up here (click to show/hide)

Desired traits
1.Spawns colossi every few turns, large demihuman creatures with slight amounts of stonework covering their bodies
2.Every so often a greater Colossi is spawned, they can have unique traits, and a special power, they are generally larger/stronger than normal and when slain in single combat grant either (your choice) The power to turn into a colossi, or a lesser version of their main power. There is also only ever one at a time.
3.If more than five colossi accumulate on the tile new ones will move to nearby tiles.
4.Colossi bones are magical, colossi have weakpoints, and they provide meat.

As it's name suggests this tile is constantly under light meteoric bombardment, most burn up and are harmless but occasionally (every few turns) one will impact glowing with mystic energy. These then trap an animal and go underground. After a time the animals will emerge as colossi. Colossi are large creatures, they are a mix of stonework (appearing in the form of weapons and armor), man, and beast, most of them are similar enough to just bunch together into a group based on species. In general they are around the size of a jotun villager. Colossi are territorial and will attack if attacked, they get more territorial around the central structure. If the number of colossi exceed 5 new colossi wil head to a nearby tile. Every so often (every 5-10 spawns) a colossus will be created that is truly extraordinary, possessing unique traits, and being stronger than average, these creatures are known as greater colossi, and there tends to only be 1 alive at a time. Greater colossi can break most of the rules normal colossi follow, having unique abilities, be they magical, or biological. In addition other colossi tend to group up around them, forming an impromptu army. Colossi tend to bear the markings of that which created them, in the form of crystals surrounded by mystic runes, these locations are weakpoints, plunging a sword into them will eventually slay the colossus, though one can always just slay them by conventional means. When slain a "Colossus" provides an immense amount of meat, and if slain alone in single combat their energies flow into whoever defeated them, augmenting their strength, and in the case of greater colossi, granting one the ability to shift into a colossus-like form, or giving you a lesser version of one of their abilities. In addition their bones, and the crystal that created them (which are valuable if they are not destroyed), are magical in nature. [/color]

Instead He begins work on something simpler, a project for a mecha robot factory at H3, It's simple enough, it makes mechs, I am not particular what kind, and it does so automatically. He puts 2 FP into it, the mechs should be custom made for whoever enters it, being able to operate them effectively.

Spoiler: write up here (click to show/hide)

Farsky Creates the land of falling stars, at it's center is a pulsing mystic structure, the structure forever calls out to the sky. As it's name suggests this tile is constantly under light meteoric bombardment, most burn up and are harmless but occasionally (every few turns) one will impact glowing with similar mystic energy to the central structure. When an animal approaches it they are grabbed by beams of energy that pull them into the meteor, at which point they start glowing with energy and the ground closes up over them, sealing them away.

In general they are around the size of a jotun villager, with some smaller, and (more commonly) some are larger. For the most part though, colossi that are naturally spawned simply appear to be large demihuman versions of the animal they were created from, with a little stonework thrown in. Colossi do not tend to be innately hostile, it is mostly their size that makes them a threat, however they are territorial and will attack if attacked, they get more territorial around the central structure. Colossi also do not tend to leave their home tile, however if the number of colossi exceed 5 a small group will branch off, heading to a nearby tile. Every so often a colossus will be created that is truly extraordinary, possessing unique traits, and being stronger than average, these creatures are known as greater colossi, and there tends to only be 1 or 2 at a time. Be warned though, as greater colossi can break most of the rules normal colossi follow, having unique abilities, be they magical, or biological. In addition other colossi tend to group up around them, forming an impromptu army. Colossi tend to bear the markings of that which created them, in the form of crystals surrounded by mystic runes, these locations are weakpoints, plunging a sword into them will eventually slay the colossus, though one can always just slay them by conventional means.

In addition their bones, and the crystal that created them (which are valuable if they are not destroyed), are magical in nature.  

I appreciate your enthusiasm, and you are on the right track.  However, I suggest cutting down on the details, because, in addition to making it a hard to read wall of text, it's also hard to tell flavor text from attributes that add to the power.  This version seems just about the same as the last version, with some minor changes.  I would guess 25-35 FP right now.  Maybe you could try simplifying that description a bit.

The Jotun Oligarchy continues their foraging. They expand their civilization to increase their collective strength and honor their patron gods at the same time. Unconcerned about the possibility of depleting the resources of trees that forever bear fruit, they focus their efforts on a single tile to both protect it from rival civilizations and discover if it shares the same diminishing returns that a regular tile has.

Amastay, the god of construction will use his 5fp to create a special tile.

He changes the planes at H4, smoothing out the geography and reinforcing the foundations so that anything built on the tile can be constructed quickly, easily, and with great effect. Any small rivers or creeks are forced into more geometrical routes, using easy to quantify angles and steps instead of organic curves and declines. 

Constructing anything here (for example, a mega project), or partitioning the land should be a much easier process now.

The tech should say "1 labor" to make.  So if you somehow get special workers that have 2 labor, 1 worker could make 2 primitive houses.

From what I can tell, apparently you aren't getting counted as demihuman unless it's your trait. for example when you had to choose between cat and eskimoo and you chose eskimoo, that apparently made you not a demihuman after all.

If I was 0cra_tr0per, I would have picked a trait which exemplified both cold and cats with a single word. Probably a long haired cat species name or a portmanteau. Probably "Siberian", which is a kind of cat that is well adapted to cold weather native to Russia.

Edit: And now I feel silly because I also thought of a better trait I could have picked for myself. Ettin! Ah well. Giant is still pretty neat despite the crippling 1.5X food costs.

Mabel Godess of Demihumans
regions, but I need to spend my energy on projects pertaining to my own domain.[/i]
Create a Frozen Enchanted Forest at B3 for 5FP, All those born there will have magic within them, making them hybrids of both their birth race and the species best pertaining to their personality. Granting them positive effects at whatever they choose to do in life and making them Blessed of Mabel.

I think this would require more than 5 FP.  You could have the tile make workers be magic/their trait hybrids for 5 FP.  "Granting them positive effects at whatever they choose do to..." and making them blessed would add another 5 or 10, depending on if Blessed of Mabel is just flavor text or does something.
edit:  You appear to be trying to have the tile make workers be both magical and demihumans.  That right there would be 10 FP.

In that case do you mind adding the Hybrid trait to them instead of the full effects?

Now, about flavor text.  It's possible that flavor text might impact the game.  However, I have to draw the line at flavor text impacting Aspects.  If I didn't. we'd have players making walls and walls of flavor text, hoping it would trigger their favorite god's aspect.

Noteworthy tiles:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

B3:  +Frozen Demihuman Forest+
C4:  +A grove of large trees that forever bear fruit+
H4:  +The Plains of Planes+

Godly actions of note:
For 5 FP, Mabel creates a Frozen Demihuman Forest at B3!
Farsky tries to create Divine Project "Mecha Robot Factory" and fails.  (Let's be reasonable.  The civs are in the stone age.  Giving them mechs would make them invincible.)
For 5 FP, Amastay creates the Plains of Planes at H4!
Nagas creates swamps at H6, H7, and G7.
Blarg creates swamps at K3 and J3.  The world seems to be getting taken over by swampland!
Malvol creates plains at C2.

New rules created!
Civilizations can now hunt!  Workers must be armed with some kind of weapon to hunt.  Example order:  "1 worker hunts at A1 with 1 crude spear."  Hunting does not reduce efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Fishing can also be done at tiles with water, such as rivers, swamps, beaches, or mangrove forests.  Workers must have a spear or some kind of fishing tool.

Zap now costs 2 and 3 FP instead of 3 and 5 FP!

Civilization actions:

Dipnoi Republic
1 worker prays to Nagas.
2 workers research Herbalism, and the research is completed!
1 worker forages for food at I6, and finds 3 food.
2 workers forage for food at I7, and find 3 food.  Foraging taking place in swamps is getting to be old hat.  Blarg gets 1 FP total.

The Jotun Oligarchy
6 workers forage at C4, and find 16 food.  Workers report foraging is less efficient with more than 3 workers there.
4 food is consumed to create 1 worker.  Farsky gets 1 FP!  Mabel gets 1 FP!

The Xekarni
3 workers forage for food at I4, and find 7 food.
1 worker forages for food at H5, but is driven away by 2 strange workers!
2 workers create 2 crude spears.

With an average of 2.66 food per worker with a 50% overforage rate, The grove appears to be more efficient than several other locations even if overworked a bit, though this may be a case of small sample sizes. The Jotun Oligarchy decides to continue to forage it with some ineffeciencies to ensure that rival civilizations cannot drive them away from it.

Spoiler: Double Check (click to show/hide)

Food was 8.5 at start of turn.
4 food was consumed to make a new worker.
16 food was gathered.
9 food was presumably consumed for survival.
Food is now 11.5

If Giants eat 1.5 food per turn, then this number is correct. If you want me to be double checking my food, then you may want to canonically state how much my food costs are. For the record, I am already convinced that my giants consume 1.5 food per turn and require +1 food to make a new giant.

Upon thinking about this some more, I think I'm going to have to make a rule.

All artifacts, creatures, or lands containing technology must be of medieval era technology or earlier.  Until further notice.

Mostly I am concerned about the introduction of advanced tech drastically altering the course of the game.  dgr might find the game more fun if it suddenly involved colossal mechs battling it out, but I don't think everyone else will find that particularly fun.  Unless everyone here tells me that they'd rather play the kind of game dgr wants to play...

OK, does magitek count? I will presume so until further notice (I will not do magitek mechs or whatever, just straight magic.), and mostly, I just want to make interesting things, seeing people with spears take down massive mechs counts as interesting for me. I will also restrain myself a bit, so as to not frustrate the GM and everyone else. I will keep to colossal creatures and moving castles for now. I will also just honor the spirit of the rule and not make biological or magical mechs, unless people specify they have no objections, or i scatter them randomly.

Yeah, magitech is basically equivalent to very high tech.  High tech equipment requires a high tech civilization to maintain it.

I'm thinking that we should not allow high tech at all, because then we might see a high tech arms race among the gods, and suddenly all these stone age tribes go from wielding spears to wearing power armor with ion cannons.  I'm pretty sure most of us don't want to see the game go in this direction.

I mostly agree, simply because well, that would go from OK that is kinda cool, to OH GOD EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE, or well, now most of the world is one huge wasteland, and it wouldn't be fair on new players. The one reason i can think of for a civilization to have access to higher tech, is if it is part of their trait, I.E. if they say clockwork, or robotic, for their traits.

The Xekarni

The tribe revels in the killing of beasts and begins to give praise to Malvol, lord of slaughter.

Meanwhile, a chance observation makes them aware of the dangers posed by certain barbed plants growing in the vicinity of their home. They seek a means of exploiting them to enhance the lethality of their weapons.

You know, This is why I chose the mangrove. It's easy to live in, there's steady food,(Especially with another made) and we have swampland to our south, meaning that once we stabilize, we can expand there.
The fact that getting to us is so difficult helps.

For now I'll have:

Cait Sith

3 workers create Crude Spears.
It appears working in groups of two is more efficient-
2 workers forage at J1.
2 workers forage at K1.

Cait Sith: Foragers, be on the lookout. Do not try to engage, but remember if you see them, and report once you return. And keep each other safe.



OoC(Is it true that 2 people can receive the same food numbers as 3 in mangrove forests?)


Also, I don't want to have to deal with mechs while all I have is a Fishing Spear. I want my Wings of Flight at least.

He needs a LOT to make metal. But if he just works chunks of rock he finds on the surface that contain ore in them, he can bypass the mining requirements. Im mostly wondering how he'll learn smelting without fire, and smithing without tools.

I reccomend aiming for fire and clay before worrying about metal.

The Jotun Oligarchy are only mildly annoyed at the Wolves actions, and are proud that their size is working in their favor for the first time in their short existence! The are aware that it is the "Year of the Wolf"... But the Jotun Oligarchy does not really know what a "Year" is. As such, they decide to stick together until they are sure the threat has passed.

While the Giants have only mild concerns about Dire Wolves, they are considerably more wary of the Mammoths in the south. While it certainly seems that one of their patron gods, Farsky, has a plan, the Jotun Oligarchy decides to leave the mammoths well enough alone until they understand them better.

With a considerable stockpile of food, the Jotun Oligarchy decides to do some research so that they can ensure that they will continue to have ample food supplies in the future.

Wounded workers need to spend a turn recovering.  However, if you have 3 reagents (or some other way of healing), you can use them to heal the worker, and then perform an action with him.  Gods could do a healing Zap, which would allow you to use the worker the same turn as the zap.

Actions that use a tile should have the tile specified.  "Home tile" or whatever isn't good enough.  In the early part of the game, I'll let it slide for those who aren't yet familiar with Gridhood.

Fruit: Don't think so, but I think he needs to be more specific..

Research Fruit Growth for Example. That way they know which all ready to pick each day, streamlines their gathering and netting them more, more regularly. At least that's what I would type..

Good on them being somewhat immune to the wolves. I would suggest Research Clubs or Axes though. Treecarving maybe?

I do not believe that I typed the word "Fruit" incorrectly. There is a special tile adjacent to my home tile that specifically produces fruit. Is there a problem with the research topic?

Edit: I am going to change it because the GM made even the slightest implication that its not an ideal research topic. That's a recipe for a disaster in my game!

I have no problem with someone researching "Fruit."  However, when the topic is vague, the outcome is more likely to be something you're not expecting.

So when you say you're researching Fruit, does that mean you're sitting down and examining fruit, considering its fruitiness? Because stone age people understand that fruit is tasty; no research is required.  Or are you trying to domesticate fruit trees?

edit: Okay, I see what you mean now.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on May 29, 2018, 07:50:32 pm

Actually, the logic of researching "Fruit" was specifically to get something I wasn't expecting. That way I could research what I did have in mind after that if I got something else!

But now that I revealed what I had in mind, so the GM will now start to consider it.

The legendary spear warrior shall be called Goruk.

The Xekarni hold to the belief that there is no greater glory than that achieved through death in combat, and thus do not mourn their fallen. Goruk, however, perceives the casualties as a sign that the tribe is weak. Dwelling upon the visions imparted to him by Malvol, he begins to devise tactics to enhance the hunters' capacity to deal with threats.

The Jotun Oligarchy discovers that they may have a third patron god! Amastay appears to have dominion on construction, and the Jotun Oligarchy was already planning to do a lot of construction work themselves; especially due to the fact that their large stature would likely make them naturally proficient at physical labor. The Jotun Oligarchy consider the gods for a moment and have a clear definition of "Patron God" in their primitive language. A Patron God is a god that will reliably grow in power when the Jotun Oligarchy partakes in activities that they would do even without being influenced by the divine. They already knew that Mabel and Farsky were patron gods because they were empowered by the expansion of the Jotun Oligarchy. If Amastay gains meaningful amounts of strength from the Jotun Oligarchy's construction projects then that would qualify Amastay as a Patron God as well.

Difficulty reaching the new land then.. Wings of Flight Innate Magic should be our next project.

Cait Sith
2 Workers forage at J1
2 Workers take Crude Spears and fish at J1
2 Workers forage at K1
2 Workers take Crude Spears and fish at K1

2 Workers finish up the Logistics Problem.



Meta Note- It seems that we, the Cait Sith, and the People, are the first to get 10 workers. Interesting to see how we are different.

Jotun Oligarchy

I have detected what appears to be a GM error. You did not update the Giant population to 9 or deduct the food. Because no reason was provided for me being unable to make a worker, and that the action was not acknowledged in any way, I will assume that this is a GM error and take my action as if I had 9 workers and 5 food instead of 8 workers and 9 food. Please let me know if I was unable to create a new worker for some reason.

Also, let me know if you would like me to exclude the space between my worker actions and the new worker creation action. I'm wondering if that threw you off.

Spoiler: Doublecheck ERROR DETECTED (click to show/hide)

Food stockpile started at 9 food.
Consumed 12 food
Collected 12 food.
New worker at the cost of 4
Food is currently 9
Food should be 5!

This is definitely wrong. I believe the error is that you missed the line about me creating a new worker. See the above text.

Spoiler: Action Post (click to show/hide)

3 workers forage at C4
3 workers forage at D3
3 workers forage at D4

1 new worker is made at the cost of 4 food.
(If I was actually supposed to have only 8 workers for some reason, only two people forage at D4)

I might be pushing my luck now, but is 2/10 the intended amount for the Orchard?

(I'm still trying to figure out what kind of benefit the Giant trait could possibly have that outweighs a crippling 1.5X food cost multiplier. Looks like it isn't a labor bonus, though admittedly planting trees doesn't exactly require herculean strength)

Once Logistics is completed, there is going to be a major event once I can survive a turn staying at home.

Can't wait~


Make some clubs from a forest- that will help in wartimes. Or just smashing anything that attacks you, like those mammoths that were made some turns ago. Then you can make spears out of their bones and use those to hunt more of them.

It's still pretty early in the game.  Who knows what giants are capable of?  (Hint:  you haven't researched the tech related to your trait, yet.)
Eating 50% more food is admittedly a big deal early in the game.  Later, that extra food cost will most likely be trivial, and you'll have workers who are 2X the size of everyone else.  This might be a big deal, or not, depending on how much combat occurs in the game.

Hmm~ I kinda based my race off of the Sao: Alfheilm Cait Sith. They can fly for ten minutes outside caves. They are also natural beast tamers, so that's something I'll research later in game, but this should let the Cait Sith travel far distances in a single day.

Maybe 3 or 4 squares. I plan on dumping an entire day's research on it. Granted, this will be the day after I pray to you. Need enough food to do so.

I really want those wings of light/mana to be something all Cait Sith are born able to do. Might be able to reach The People too.

If that's why you say wait... If we work together we can add that magic trait to the Cait Sith. Flight-nya~

Was just looking over the last few turns of the game.  I can see how you would feel that your trait is unbalanced.  50% increased food consumption is a big deal when food is scarce in the beginning.  This is setting you back tech-wise since you have to devote so many workers to food gathering.

I think you are doing well, though, considering your increased food consumption.  The fertile tile yields, on average, 1 more food than a normal tile per worker , which is helping a bit.  You have 9 total research to Dipnoi's 16.  Dipnoi has been getting good food rolls, in addition to a couple of techs that increase yield.  Xekarni has lost some workers but has gotten a lot of bonus food.

My thinking was the giant's increased size will give them a large advantage in combat, but if the game ends up peaceful in nature, that's not much of a bonus.  I was thinking that the giants' large size would give them a bonus in construction, too.  Maybe that's not enough good to offset the bad.

I'm thinking of gifting the Jotun some bonus food this turn.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Nakéen on June 02, 2018, 12:05:00 am

Thinking about it, maybe you could give the giants a bonus to all collection-type actions. I imagine that a giant would easily harvest/collect more than the average individual.

If there is some resource depletion mechanics, it would then also cripple them in the long run if they don't expand/secure resources while making their early run easier.

Also love the game!

Honestly you don't need to actually tell me all this. What is the game without some secrets? I just like complaining about the food cost.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Zazmio on June 02, 2018, 02:13:24 am

Well, your post really got me thinking, and I realized that it wasn't just complaining -- the Jotun really are at a pretty big disadvantage.  I don't really want to change their food consumption, as that gives them a unique flavor, but I want to do something to help them out in the early game.  So I guess I was just thinking out loud, and wanted to see what people think.

The problem I see with this is that an increase in gathering capacity would logically be offset by the greater quantity of resources that giants would require to build and craft stuff suited for their size.

To announce his arrival Izzith just twiddles his thumbs.

Figured I'd try to be a god in this one. I looked at the game and there seemed to be a lack of patron for one of the biggest civs and magic seemed an interesting enough aspect.
I was tempted to make a civ with the aquatic trait at E6 but there is a shortage of gods compared to civs and I would have needed a god working on my side to expand the oceans with that build.

Hopefully this zap will work. I figure because the Cait Sith already have magic as a trait it should be cheaper to give them magical powers.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: TricMagic on June 02, 2018, 05:44:52 pm

Um, can you not?

Can you spend your GP on us next turn instead?

We're getting ready to add Wings of Flight as an Innate trait They're literally made of Mana. And we can research magic on our own, which should give you GP as a result later on. We can already do magic if we study.

That and Mabel looks to be ready to help as well. Talk to her if you want to help. It should be happening next turn.


On that note, welcome to the game Izzith. Our Gods seem to be Blarg and Mabel. And you now apparently.


The reason we have the most people is because The People lost one thanks to Snakes on Planes.
That and we want to use all ten for this next action. More GP will always help. Flight~nya!


Here, our current status-

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
10 workers
9 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory: 1 of ? (incomplete)

Logistics: 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics to 6.)
Primitive Spear-Making: 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)


At least we now have a major reason to research them now rather than later. And with Flight and our Logistics bonus, food shouldn't be an issue.

Post by: Oblivion2007 on June 02, 2018, 05:55:22 pm

It has been implied that someone who already has skill in something can research related fields faster, as shown with the spearman. Getting a guy that can already use magic should speed up any magic research. Looking at your sheet you don't seem to have any actual mechanical ability to use magic quite yet. With your trait you definitely do have a bonus to researching magic but stacking a few bonuses never hurts right?

If you are really dead set against it than I can save up the FP I guess.

If you're handing out beneficial zaps, the Jorun Oligarchy could use some. Mabel hasn't really done anything for my civilization and now it sounds like maybe she is going to spend all the FP that she got from my civilization on someone else? (Though as I haven't noticed her actually saying anything about it in the thread, it seems more likely that TricMagic is wrong.)

At least Farsky was helpful though.

Post by: TricMagic on June 02, 2018, 06:11:53 pm

I just really want flight to work, and a little(or a lot) of Godly assistance doesn't hurt our chances of making it innate.

I'm pretty sure we do need a God's assistance to make it stick, and you being a god of Magic can work with Mabel next turn. She supplies most of the GP, and you put your domain to work with her domain.

Besides, if you really want to grant Magic assistance, you can grant a tile an affinity towards specific elemental magics for 5 MP later.


At the moment though, our very success with flight is likely to give you that MP back afterward, so it's more efficient.


There's also a Divine Project you could work on afterward. Create a World Seed, and we will tend to it.


....After this is said and done, We Cait Sith truly need to work on Prayer Festivals. We certainty have enough gods with us for it to be a great multiplier.


-------------
And, no, she hasn't quite said anything, she just said to wait. It's just that she has three Civs to tend to. And she is likely working on a long game rather than a quick one.

I don't know why it became a zap! I just wanted snakes!

Nagas had 4 FP.  So I did the only thing I could think of that would create snakes for less than 5 FP.

Ah. You know you don't actually have a cost for animals listed in the OP?

The god Izzith comes! All hail Izzith the God of Magic!

To announce his arrival Izzith Zaps one Cait Sith civilian at K1 to give it minor magical powers.

Welcome to the game.  Just to help you out a little, you might want to be more specific than "minor magical powers".  The Cait Sith are already inherently magical.

I find it unsettling that a hunt with nearly half a tribe doesn't get me any FP, but more peaceful gods can create tiles that create more FP every time a new pop is born in them.

I was interpreting your Slaughter aspect as "slaughtering foes in combat" or "violent bloody deaths."  Not so much as mundane slaughtering of animals that happens all the time.  Since your kind of slaughter tends to happen less often, you get more FP when it does happen.

I realize that some things are unbalanced in this game.  Nagas has only gotten 1 FP through his aspect if I remember right.  And then we have the Jotun problem.  All I can say is, let's try and accept the imbalance and go with it.

I did say that the rules for artifact and creature creation were the same as for land tiles, and special tiles are a minimum of 5 FP.  I should have explained it better though.  I was thinking it would be 5 FP minimum to create stuff, but maybe, for a few plain boring animals, we could make it just 3 FP.

Rules modification!  Creatures and artifacts explained in more detail.

Creatures:
For 1 FP, you can make a single, nondangerous, boring creature such as a donkey.
For 3 FP, you can make one dangerous but boring creature such as a tiger, or a herd of boring nondangerous critters like horses or harmless snakes.
For 5 FP, you can make a magical and/or very dangerous monster/creature/foe of some kind.  Example:  An Ogre or a Troll.  Or a pack of dangerous but otherwise nonspecial critters.  Example:  A pack of dire wolves.  Or a herd of nondangerous but kind of special critters, such as a herd of talking swamp zebras.
More powerful monsters will cost multiples of 5 FP.  Example:  A Fire Giant or a Demon would probably cost 10 FP.  Beezlebub, Lord of the Flies, would probably cost around 20 FP.

Artifacts:
5 FP minimum.  For 5 FP, you get a basic magic object, such as a magic sword.  Excalibur would probably cost 15 or so FP.  Or non-weapon/armor artifacts that alter workers, tiles, or the weather in limited ways.  Tech level is currently limited to early medieval era (no gunpowder).

Independently made critters aren't tied to a tile and might stick around if the tile is changed.  Creatures part of a tile probably won't leave unless you spend extra.

Blarg spends 5FP to change the G7 into a large abandoned and ruined two story building with a large park with a small pond in the middle, and to protect the Zebras from the snakes the building is surrounded by a large flat and cracked area made of a light gray stone that has randomly placed hunks of rusting metal. Blarg names this place Willamette.

Cait Sith
5 workers figure out basic Magical Theory.
2 of these grab 2 crude spears in case Snakes attack.
2 workers will pick up spears and Pray to Mabel near their injured tribemates.
Once again, in case Snakes attack.

Finally, all workers will focus on retreat and defense rather than offense if Snakes attack.

"And we'll all be together in this frightful time."

I'm thinking of making a resource tile. This tile creates consumable luxuries, which either increase how hard pops work for a turn, or allow going over the housing cap with no problems, while it lasts. It stops being created if there has been no sapient bloodshed on the tile for a few turns.

Is this tile possible, and how much would it cost?

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy is a bit concerned about the events that happened. While they didn't particularly appreciate having a neighboring tribe so nearby, the existence of Giant Pythons capable of such destructive force was a concern.

While the Jotun Oligarchy did have many food related concerns, it seems as though their size helped to alleviate the non-food related concerns. Past events suggest to the Giants that the year of the snakes will not last for long, and work can continue uninterrupted. During this time of fortune the Jotun Oligarchy decides to pay their respects for the gods that have assisted them.

(I am not sure if foraging a tile with 2 kinds of workers uses 1 logistics or 2. Either way my action should work as it would use 4-5 logistics. Also, Should the Potato Pirate settlement still be on the map?

One last curiosity. If the mammoth gave fp to Farsky, and is a MAGICAL mammoth, should that have also gave FP to Izzith?)

um, that's pretty rude, you know I didn't cause the snake plague, right? I didn't even do anything this turn.

Nagas gifts a giant, possibly slightly magical, tame anaconda to the leader of the Dipnoi at I6 for what I hope will just be 5FP! They can use it to eat their enemies, and it is a sign of Nagas' favour!

He then sends a herd of dangerous but otherwise nonspecial tame (which I now know cost 5FP) cobras to the Jotnar at D4!
CHOSEN OF NAGAS, DEVOUR THE WORLD!

For a further 5FP, he places a Serpent Jungle at J4! A Serpent Jungle is naturally full of serpents, and anyone who spends too much time there becomes snekkier and may eventually turn into a naga! I'd like for this change to be heritable if it doesn't increase the cost. Afterward, normal 1FP oceans are placed at G5 and G6 to complete that oceanic belt, a normal swamp at K4, and normal rainforest at J7 and K5, K6, and K7! Even though he is slightly miffed at the Orassans, he also kindly places mangrove forests at A2 and A4. That's it for now unless anyone has any suggestions.

Total cost, currently: 24FP

I'll say 5 FP.  I'll rule that if an entire tribe turns into a certain type, then future new workers will be that type.  If you're trying to make a whole tribe's new workers become Nagas after just one worker interacts with the tile, that would be a lot more powerful.  I'll say... 15 FP.

Malvol spends 5 FP, reshaping tile C3 to have Bushes of Empowermernt. These thorny bushes each have a few blood-red berries the size of a plum. The bushes can only sprout where sapient beings have recently been violently killed, and will go fully dormant after 5 years.

People eating a diet of Berries of Empowerment will be better at physical labor, and will be braver, bloodthirstier warriors.

Mabel
Add special properties to the mangrove forest in K1, those born there shall become demihumans related to their nature/personality, and shall be infused with magic, making even those that would otherwise be magical have a noticeably stronger connection to magic as part of their nature.

So, for the special traits for the horses, I think I will make them breath fire, like the ones from Greek mythology. (And carnivorous too, if that's not too much.)

Amastay is delighted at the idea of an orchard, and resolves that he should do something nice for the giants at some point in the future.

For now though, he spends 9 FP (3 multiples of 3) to zap a worker of "The People" into a champion warrior, so that they might defend themselves when the time should come. With his last fp, he creates a large mundane hammer for the champion to use, as is only suitable for a champion of the god of construction.

Also TricMagic you keep mentioning this plan of your's but I haven't actually seen any actual plan or research or even a Divine project. Honestly I'm not even sure what is going on or even what you are asking me to do. Importantly I also do get any indication that your plan is even going to work, which is worrying for me because you are asking me to sink almost all of my resources into this. I just recently joined and I'm pretty behind the other gods so I need to try and spend my FP efficiently.

Post by: TricMagic on June 04, 2018, 09:24:43 am

Well, you are a God of Magic. We basically need Izzith's Blessing in this endeavor.


After this, we plan to research magic, and use it. That should give you FP rather regularly.

I'm kinda hoping for Mabel and Blarg to pitch in too.


All 10 Cait Sith workers are working on Magical Flight this turn.

If it doesn't work that way, we'll sure to get a bunch of Magic Research this turn. If it does work, we can focus on Magic to build Houses. That's FP for you each time we build more, not to mention FP whenever we make more workers, or train people in magic.


We've been building the food stock for this a while now. I may not need a god's Blessing on this, but it would certainly help us out.

We won't be able to do this for a while afterward otherwise.

Post by: Oblivion2007 on June 04, 2018, 11:06:01 am

I think this is going to be way more expensive than you imagine. Let me try to break it down:

Your Goal - Add flight as a second trait to your civilization

Payment - 10 labor + XFP from various gods

In this situation what you are contributing to the goal is meaningless, 10 labor is what it cost Jotun to build an Orchard. It would cost way more than that to add a trait just for game balance reasons.

So the only way this is possible is basically entirely depending on the gods, and that would likely take at least 20+ combined FP I'm guessing. If I were running the game I would actually make it something like 50FP and then something like 200FP for a third trait.

Edit: That's from the perspective of a god using FP of course. I guess since I've been so negative I'll try to be more constructive and give some suggestions from your perspective.

From a civ's perspective trying to develop a second trait should probably be thought of as a 'wonder'. That is first you should research tech to actually accomplish what the wonder does, then tech to contruct it, and finally put in tons of labor to actually build it.

Example: The Grand Dam - A massive dam that controls a river, it prevents droughts and flooding and boosts agriculture along the river.
First research Irrigation, Flood control, and maybe Aqueducts and Wells - This lets you actually do what the wonder is for, controlling water flow
Second research all the construction techniques needed to actually build it, an example might be Ancient Concrete (like the Romans used) to create a watertight seal
Third actually gather the materials and spend tons of labor building the damn thing

You currently don't know how to fly with magic at all, let alone innately, you should probably research spells that let your mages fly as a baseline. Then research tech like Enchantment and Ritual Casting so that you can actually enhance your population. Finally train a bunch of mages and have them cast a massive ritual to enhance your people, likely taking a lot of labor and many turns.

These are all rough examples because nobody has actually built a wonder yet and we don't know what all the GM will decide is necessary for them, but this is just my suggestion on how you should be thinking of this.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: TricMagic on June 04, 2018, 11:43:27 am

K. At the very least, it will give me an Idea on what the GM thinks is necessary for this.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy considers the events that have occurred. It seems that the god Nagas has decided to give the Jotun Oligarchy some new mouthes to feed. The Jotun Oligarchy hope that Naga's intends to do something to help them out because food is scarce enough as it is without having snakes to feed.

Another thing of concern: Malvol appears to demand bloodshed. The Jotun Oligarchy's newly created orchard was not protected, so the last thing the Giants wanted to do was upset any god - let alone the most bloodthirsty one of them all! After some discussion it is decided that one of them would travel to the battleground that Malvol created and fight for his amusement.

The 3 extra is from turn 10.  Supernerd pointed out that the mammoth was magical, so I edited the turn and gave Izzith 3 more FP.  Then I forgot to mention it...

I also missed a couple of mangrove forests that Nagas made.  I'll edit that into turn 11, and they're available to use on turn 12, but they won't appear on the map until turn 12.

So the only way this is possible is basically entirely depending on the gods, and that would likely take at least 20+ combined FP I'm guessing. If I were running the game I would actually make it something like 50FP and then something like 200FP for a third trait.

I probably should do it something like this.  Otherwise, the gods will keep adding all kinds of traits to civs, and we'll end up with some real crazy shit.

I've been allowing Mabel to make tiles that make workers into cat-like demihumans for 5 FP, because cat-like and demihuman don't really impact anything except for Mabel's FP gain through her aspect.  I should have made Mabel's recent tile cost 10 because it makes workers extra magical in addition to demihuman.  I actually meant to do that, but it slipped my mind as I did the turn.

Flight is pretty good.  It is a trait, and adding a second useful trait to workers should cost a decent amount of FP.  So, for now, let's say that adding flight to Mabel's K1 tile will cost another 15 FP.  And adding additional traits after that the cost will be doubled to 30, then 60, etc.

Post by: Supernerd on June 04, 2018, 05:40:25 pm

Wouldn't it be hard to regulate tile-based traits? I mean if Mabel is allowed to make a trait-tile then obviously you have to allow other gods to do that too. Then each god can make a trait-tile around a certain area and a worker would be able to visit each one...

The way I would balance it is that the more traits you have, the more likely things will go horribly horribly wrong.

Yes, it's hard to regulate.  Yes, the game is on the verge of spiraling out of control with all kinds of stuff being added to workers.

All 10 Cait Sith workers are working on Magical Flight this turn.

If it doesn't work that way, we'll sure to get a bunch of Magic Research this turn. If it does work, we can focus on Magic to build Houses. That's FP for you each time we build more, not to mention FP whenever we make more workers, or train people in magic.

Keep in mind that you don't even have Simple Spells researched yet.  You're in the stone age, magically speaking.

Another thing of concern: Malvol appears to demand bloodshed. The Jotun Oligarchy's newly created orchard was not protected, so the last thing the Giants wanted to do was upset any god - let alone the most bloodthirsty one of them all! After some discussion it is decided that one of them would travel to the battleground that Malvol created and fight for his amusement.

It's a gift with a cost (or hopefully a gift worth a small ongoing conflict), not a demand for sacrifices. Forage and fight, not stand there looking for a fight.

K then..

Having Communed with Izzith, the god of Magic, the Cait Sith realize the work they have yet to do.

Therefore, new orders are handed out, to everyone's sadness.

Cait Sith
2 pick up the crude spears to fish at J-1,
Another 2 pick up crude spears to fish at K-1.

Meanwhile, 1 worker researches Simple Spells
5 workers research to advance their knowledge of Magical Theory to the next level.




Also, I really only have Flight, and Creature Taming on my wish-list. But if I need a circle to get it, then by Yggdrasil I'm going to get it!


And I don't really want it added to a tile, but all Cait Sith. Which is obviously going to take a lot of work for us to do.

Also, on what conditions does Izzith gain FP from us?

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Zazmio on June 04, 2018, 07:55:44 pm

I recommend having explicit instructions in your orders, such as "X workers do X at X with X".  Leaving vague orders lets me interpret them in stupid ways.  Also, if you put more workers than needed into researching or building something, the excess workers will not automatically go and do something else productive.  There is a chance that they will pick lint from their navels or take naps.  You can't order workers to do something if something happens, either.  So, "10 workers research whatever, then any leftover workers research somethingelse"  will not necessarily result in "somethingelse" getting researched.

When researching techs, and you have something like "3 of ?" researched, you have to make a guess at what the ? is.  If you guess wrong, and put more workers than is needed, you might end up wasting labor.  That is by design, and there's no way to make sure that excess workers do what you want.

15FP for adding a second trait sounds good in this context because it is a tile improvement, which another god can take away by removing the tile.

What would it cost to add a second trait to a civilization, not from visiting tiles but like having a second inherent trait? That was what I think Cait Sith was trying to do and why I ballparked it to around 50.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Zazmio on June 04, 2018, 10:23:02 pm

So we're talking about a super powerful artifact or land that adds a new useful trait to an entire civ?  How about we say, 30 FP to add the second trait, then doubled after that to 60 for the third, 120 for the fourth.  For a one-shot artifact or land.

Post by: TricMagic on June 05, 2018, 06:13:19 am

Eh, that will do.

And it's Flight, specifically the flight from Alfheim, the Wings of Light/Mana.


Also, to actually use such an artifact, you should need your entire civilization using it.
That way you need enough food to perform such an action.

Since it would be to add a second trait to the race.

About your turn, maybe I'm confusing this with a different Gridhood but I don't think you can construct a tool and use it on the same turn. You definitely can't both construct and do a second action with one guy, constructing a tool uses his labor. Might want to change that icefishing dude.

You already improved Cait Sith's home tile, turning the people there into demihumans. I had assumed me replacing that tile would be considered a hostile act because it would stop you from getting FP from them. If you are fine with me replacing that tile than great!

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: TricMagic on June 05, 2018, 11:55:46 am

My main issue is that I only have 3 tiles I can forage on.

Cait Sith

2 workers grab crude spears and fish at J-1.
2 workers forage at J-1.
2 workers grab crude spears and fish at K-1.
2 workers forage at K-1.

2 workers will research .... a way to improve gathering range.
(Read as boosting our range that we can perform actions in by one tile, Cause we only have 3 tiles we can find things in right now.)
What would work here though...?......

4 workers research writing.

This is all I can do, since I have no idea how to boost my range without being able to boost my number of workers...
Which requires more food than I can sustain here without dedicating them all to diminishing returns.

My position may be great defensively, but being stuck with 3 tiles instead of five slows my growth. I'll need Basic Map-making if I want to get anywhere.

...Can someone give us a Compass?

Also, you could replace the tile to our south with a Meadow/Plain with a Large Lake.
Maybe add a magic effect to it like our current tile if you wanted.
But mostly to make finding reagents easier.

Meadow with a large Lake, with many Magical Plants

That should do for K-2. We can gather reagents there.

Meadow with Lake is the land, and Magical Plants is the Additive.


Optional: give K-1 many magical plants. No need to change the tile. Still would like it at K-2 though, Swampland isn't that good for fishing.. Wetland would be better there. But Blarg is currently teaching Zebras how to Civ.

I believe so. Getting in as a god is easier because you don't really have to worry about technology. I suggest reconsidering your aspect, though. Glass is unlikely to be used until someone starts researching windows, and even then it's not a sure thing. Anyone here who knows what the uses for glass were in the Stone Age? Obsidian for spears might possibly count, but no one seems to be working on improved spears.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy takes note of what happened. Apparantly there is some unknown warrior out there who thinks REALLY poorly of the Potato Pirates, to have such offensive imagery on display like that. Of greater concern is the technology that was available to this person. They seemed to have animal taming, spears, tattoos, combat training and the ability to travel long distances. This is highly disturbing news...

In the meantime, the Giants resolve to make the most of the unintentional sacrifice of the worker. They did NOT expect anyone like that to exist. At least Malvol was entertained though. Better to make an enemy of some mystery tribe than to make an enemy out of Malvol.

Having nearby Magical Mammoths as well as Vipers they have to keep fed now, the Jotun Oligarchy decide on their next research project.

2 workers will research .... a way to improve gathering range.

Order is too vague.  Research something specific.

This game is kind of a puzzle where you try to determine the thinking of the GM.  You have to use your imagination and think of how a stone age tribe might increase their range.  If I was a player, I might think that moving faster and farther might increase range, and would try to research domestication of animals and horseback riding, or roadbuilding, or something like that.  Your guess might result in something unexpected happening, but that is part of the game.

This forced me to look through past turns where workers died to see if they were consuming food.  I found that I have been inconsistent about this.  From now on, workers who die will not consume food on the turn they die.


Now, about those Bountiful Baskets.  I think I'm going to alter them to doubling food instead of tripling food, if that's all right with Mabel.  I'm thinking that 3X food is a bit too powerful for 5 FP.  2X food is still very good, especially when combined with Greenthumb workers.

For the record, no animals would help in our situation. In order to increase our productivity, we need to be able to collect food effectively, at minimum labor.

And I wood(would) guess wind spells are locked behind a few blocks.

Using magic to help us in all walks of life is what I want to focus on. Since anyone can make tools, but magic is in our blood.

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
9 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
32.5 food
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 3 of ? (Incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 6 primitive, 4 fine mud (houses 11 total)
Resources:
11 workers
2 food
3 reagents
3 blowdart

Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Domestication, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

7 workers
1 spear warrior
Goruk, legendary spear warrior
1 food

Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)

Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.

Advanced Magic Theory: 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells: 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)

I'm at 14 fp. I need 15 to create my legendary magic weapon for my champion. It should be of interest to Malvol, Izzith, and Mabel in particular, but since I'm not asking for anything free anyone who is not spending 100% of their fp this turn might want to help out, just as a general diplomatic outreach.

Nagas releases a herd of harmless egg-laying snakes which lay delicious, edible snek eggs (or "sneggs" to the hip) on E4. He expects this to cost either 3 or 5FP depending on whether being a food source counts as "kind of special". If it's only 3FP, he also releases some at J6 for the Dipnoi to have, but the Jotun apparently need food more right now, so they get priority. The Dipnoi are still my favourite on account of being slightly more snakelike, though!

Attached to one of the snakes (one at each tile if both end up receiving them) somehow is a note that reads: "I will not demand worship or even any particular display of gratitude for this gift, but if you drive these children of mine to extinction by overforaging I will personally see to your annihilation as a people."

Nagas then throws an FP at, uh, Amastay, right? Helmacon is Amastay, I think?

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy realizes that Farsky is asking them for their opinion. They are doing alright for food all things considered, though food would never stop being a concern. The Giants also have some concerns that they may be lagging behind other civilizations technologically... The general consenses is that the Jotun Oligarchy is actually doing fairly well right now and that it may be ideal for Farsky to save his strength for a big action later. An alternative option may be to help improve upon the Jotun Oligarchy's housing ability so that they can further expand.

The Jotun Oligarchy decides to give some prayer to Izzith, as it seems outrageous that he wasn't getting any FP from the earlier zap.

Amastay, the god of construction pools his power (15 FP) and with the help of a friend he creates !*Rehield*!, a magical and wondrous war hammer. It's metal is a clear blue color like a running river, but it is harder than the heart of Malvol himself. It is engraved in lines inlaid with silver and the lines form different patterns from different angles. Despite being a hammer, the weapon shears through armor and flesh as well as any blade or spear, and it never wears or breaks.

He gifts this artifact to the champion living amongst "The people" and sends him a message.

Great a challenger approaches. But seriously, that is cheating. Kill it the normal way please, magic is kind of cheating.
I spend 5 fp to give the demihuman colossus a sword, the sword is large enough for the colossus to wield it normally but otherwise not special. It is kind of dull and made of stone.

The Jotun Oligarchy decides to give some prayer to Izzith, as it seems outrageous that he wasn't getting any FP from the earlier zap

Oblivion2007 worded it like this:

Quote

Izzith decides to Zap one of the Jorun Oligarchy's civilians giving them the magical ability to speed the growth of plants.

Giving a worker a "magical" ability isn't exactly the same as making the worker magical.  I was considering "magical ability" to be fluff text.  I didn't even realize that he was trying to buff the worker while also making the worker trigger his aspect.  Though, I suppose I should have realized that.

In the future, if you want to make workers that trigger your aspect, you probably should make it real obvious.  Izzith could have made the worker greenthumb and inherently magical.  Then the worker would trigger his aspect (probably...).  That would have cost 6 FP, though; 3 FP for greenthumb and 3 FP for magical, because being magical is useful.

I don't know... maybe I should allow it for 3 FP.  Then Izzith could call everything he makes "magical" and have it trigger his aspect, kind of like if Nagas calls everything "snake".  The thing is, being inherently magical is a real thing in this game, and it's more useful than being snake-like.  So, now you maybe kind of see the difficulty in balancing this.

Anyway, feedback on aspect triggering is appreciated.  I'm not sure if how I'm currently doing it is the best way.  Should Blarg get FP every time someone forages in a swamp?  I don't know for sure.  I was thinking that if someone keeps getting FP the same way every turn, that there would eventually be diminishing returns.  The point of that is to encourage imagination and thinking outside the box, instead of spamming the same thing throughout the game.  Should Izzith get FP when someone researches a magical tech?  If so, does that mean that Amastay should get FP when someone researches some kind of construction?  I haven't been giving out FP for researching, but maybe I should.  Maybe I should be giving out more FP in general than I have been.

Quote from: Nakéen

Question Zazmio, would a Fine Mud Barricase cost 3 Mud or 2 Wood and 1 Mud?

You can make mud versions of constructions, which means you could substitute "wood" with "mud", making a Mud Barricade only cost labor and no wood.  You don't have to forage for mud; mud is freely available in muddy tiles.

Quote from: TricMagic

GM, do apprentices boost research? Other than magic I mean.

Apprentices research everything like a vanilla worker.  Though, thank you for pointing something out!  I need to make it so only spellcasters can research spells.

If you want to encourage diversification, I would suggest allowing things the first time it is done. Maybe put a little icon next to those "Original" things to indicate that it was the original thing of its kind? That would let people know that doing the exact same thing wouldn't work as well a second time.

Or something.

So what he means is that you can take actions using FP now that earn you FP back. In my opinion so long as the amount of FP you get stays lower than the cost this should work but if it goes over you could get a runaway positive feedback loop. Which is not good and leads to imbalance, thankfully you as the gm can just reduce the amount of FP they get as this goes on, until they earn 0 FP for most things.

To pick on Mabel, take that Demihuman forest. All the modifier does is make demihumans, and all they really do, mechanics-wise, is give Mabel more FP.

Or take the talking zebras, created with FP and giving more FP in worship. But then, I suppose there's an in-game way to deal with that, and it's in my god's sphere. Maybe.

Malvol break's the protection at G7, and creates a pride of lions there, hungry for the slaughter of zebras.
Except he changes his mind, and creates a group of aggressive swamp pygmies on H7.

This makes no sense to me. How in the world does Greenthumb even work if not by magic?

A magical ability should basically be like being able to cast ONE spell innately with no reagent cost but no others. I was expecting to get FP from the worker using that magical ability (essentially 'casting that spell') which would then be subject to diminishing returns but ultimately pay for itself at the very least.

I'm seriously not getting how this was misinterpreted so drastically. And about research:

I think this is where the confusion about research comes from. Looking again I guess this is from research being done in the swamp rather than researching blowdarts. In that case I'd like to question why I never got any FP for activity done in K1 despite it being a magical forest.

Post by: Nakéen on June 07, 2018, 01:33:26 am

I kinda like how aspect triggering works currently, though overall, I think FP gain should occur when something eventful or clearly worship-oriented happens. Using an "eventful occurence" as a guiding thread, I think spammable actions will naturally yield less and less FP as those become less "eventful" the more they happen.

Following this train of thought, I think completing research related to a god's aspect should give FP as it is quite an event. Doing an action for the first time in the game or/and in a tile should probably give some FP. Though on the matter of Foraging, I don't think it should yield any FP at this point, as it has become a very common action. Something novel like building a swamp farm or a new settlement would generate FP for instance.

You can even throw some dice if you aren't sure, I personally like some hint of randomness.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: helmacon on June 07, 2018, 03:36:57 am

I have no problem with any event granting FP so long as that amount decreases and eventually vanishes with repetition.

After all, the text is "X is intrigued". You can only maintain active intrest of something being in your swamp for so long before it just becomes meh. At that point, it should no longer give FP.

I do not think FP ought to be awarded on research, because that seems like it would be rather unbalanced. Theres only so much snake research to go around, but building research could go on for a very long time. The FP ought to come from actually interacting in novel ways with snakes, or building novel buildings. That's a much more balanced approach in my opinion.

Well, if gods get less FP back than they put into something, one might wonder why they would bother.

I came up with the idea of aspects because I wanted a way for gods to get some FP without having to rely on worshipping so much.  In a "normal" Gridhood, if the civs aren't worshipping much, then the gods will often spend turn after turn doing nothing.  In a way, the civs have the gods by the balls in "normal" Gridhood.  If the civs don't like you, you're screwed; you'll most likely have a pretty boring game.

It occurred to me that a feedback loop might happen, too.  I thought that, at some point, there might be so much FP and stuff around that the game becomes unplayable.  Or all the civs get destroyed, or something like that.  This game is experimental.  It could be that this aspect thing results in a broken game.  If so, my apologies.  Hopefully everyone has fun anyway, if that turns out to be true.

What Mabel has done is what I expected gods to do in this game; that is, manipulate the game into triggering their aspect so they get more FP.  To be fair, I don't think it was only about triggering her aspect; we have 2 civs who want to be cat-like, and Mabel was trying to help them out with that, I think.

As for Blarg's Zebras:  I think Blarg's player was just being whimsical.  I don't know if he expected to get FP back doing what he did.  I thought it would be funny if the Zebras starting worshipping him after all that, so I made that happen.  He has spent a lot of FP on the Zebras, the tile, and the protection, much more than he has gotten back, so I'm not sure if there is anything unbalanced going on there.

I think this is where the confusion about research comes from. Looking again I guess this is from research being done in the swamp rather than researching blowdarts. In that case I'd like to question why I never got any FP for activity done in K1 despite it being a magical forest.

Is the Xekarni's worker who was zapped by Malvol into a spear warrior also magical?  Is The People's Champion magical?  Are their abilities magical?  Maybe the process that made them that way was magical, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they and their abilities are magical.  I could see how the Greenthumb's ability could simply be knowledge that was imparted "magically" but now neither the ability nor the worker are magical.  Maybe that doesn't really make sense, but we're talking about a fantasy world, and not much does.

Look at it this way:  I have been charging extra FP when gods add properties to workers or whatever that trigger their aspect.  When Mabel made a tile that makes workers both magical and demihuman, she had to pay extra to have the "demihuman" part mean something.  It could have been just flavor text that didn't trigger her aspect, and it would have been cheaper.  If, for example, Nagas wanted to make an artifact that makes someone stronger, he couldn't call it "snake strength" or something and expect it to trigger his aspect.  Not without paying extra for the "snake" part, anyway.

The research example you gave was for an action taking place in a swamp.  Dipnoi Republic was blatantly gaming the system by putting the swamp tile coords in the research action when you don't have to.  I thought that was kind of funny, so I gave Blarg 1 FP.  It was just that one time.  I rewarded system gaming, my apologies.  And I should have given Izzith FP when actions took place on the magical tile.

For some reason, I haven't been having research trigger aspects.  I suppose there's not a good reason for that.  It will mean another aspect of the game that I have to keep a sharp eye on, but that's fine.  So let's say, from now on, that completed researches might trigger aspects.  And I'll give Izzith 10 more FP for past magical researches.

However, I think I will have it do so now, sometimes.  "For balance reason" does not seem like as a good reason to not do it, now.  Aspects are pretty much unbalanced; some are clearly better than others.

I only did it because I couldn't think of any thing else to do at the moment then I decided to try and make them a civ and spent all of my FP on them, I basicly  got way less coming out then I put into it.

In contrast, I don't think there should be a rule against it. For one thing, gods appear to be omniscient - it is already perfectly legitimate for you to make your action in the first place in specific response to something a civ or god does the same turn if the post happened before yours, so why should it make a difference if you're making a second one? - and for another, there already is a generally understood rule (which is I believe what Oblivion mistook for applying in this case) that things happen in chronological rather than post order, so that you can't preëmpt another player by editing more into an earlier post. That rule alone should be adequate. And, well, we haven't had "massive chains of people constantly editing their actions to one up each other", and I can't imagine that anyone would be seriously willing to invest the effort to do so. So let's err on the side of permissiveness until there is evidence that a rule is actually necessary, okay?

Things do not happen until they appear in a turn update.  Thus, it is impossible for new civilizations to appear on the first turn, as there is no land.  For conflicting actions on the same turn, such as two gods creating land on the same tile, the first action posted takes precedence. FP spent on actions that conflict with another is still used.

Its too late to protect the Zebras this turn. Things do not happen until they appear on the turn update so the protection wouldn't be added until after the Lions do their thing. Not only would protecting them now not work anyway, but you would waste your FP too because another god interacted with the tile before you.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 7 primitive, 3 giant primitive (houses 11.5 total)
Resources:
10 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
30.5 food
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 7 of 8 (Incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.

11 workers
6 food
3 reagents
5 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Domestication, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

4 slightly snake-like workers
1 spear warriors
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
8 food
3 crude spears
1 poisoned crude spear
3 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.

Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)

Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy considers their options for food gathering. E4 seems like a promising location for two reasons. The snakes at the tile would be beneficial, but what really drew the Giant's attention was the fact that the cause of the Potato Pirate's annihilation was not starvation. This meant there might still be a stockpile of food on the tile!

Spoiler: Doublecheck (click to show/hide)

Food stockpile started at 32.5 food.
Consumed 15 food.
1 food fed to snakes
1 new worker for 4 food
Collected 18 food.
Food is currently 30.5

Since you are new to the game, I will help you out a little here.

I have been charging extra when 2 or more effects are added to something.  In this case, the zap would cost 6, because you are making it both 'disciplined' and 'writer'.  Unless 'writer' is just flavor that does nothing, then it would cost 3.

Also, I haven't been giving out FP when workers with properties related to Aspects perform actions.  For example, Mabel hasn't been getting FP when demihumans perform most actions, and Izzith hasn't been getting FP when magical workers perform most actions.  Maybe if the worker becomes involved in combat you'll get FP, but it seems unlikely that you'll get much FP back doing this, if that is your intent.

The target of a Zap is always random.  However, I now realize that I need to make a slight rule change:

Healing Zaps:  A Healing Zap costs 2 FP.  Unlike other Zaps, you can specify which worker to heal.

I'll have to say no.  You target a civ, not a specific worker or tile.

Post by: Supernerd on June 08, 2018, 07:56:07 pm

Got it. So if Civilization X has 5 workers on tile A1 and five workers on tile C1, and Civilization Y has one worker on tile B1, then you can accurately zap the workers at B1, but still have a 50% chance to get the wrong tile if you try to zap at A1 or C1, skipping over the entire B1 tile with no chance of hitting that. Good to know.

Yeah, a simpler way to put it is the tiles where the workers are are irrelevant.  It targets a random worker of the civ; that worker could be anywhere.

edit: In your example, the only way you could be 100% certain of zapping Civ Y's worker at B1 would be if that was Civ Y's only worker.

Turn 15 - The Stone Age - Year of the Dragon - Arena Mode!

Game Events:
The Dragon of the Underworld is snoring, causing the earth to shake underfoot!

The Champion Warrior of The People is doing battle with the Demihuman Colossus, putting the game in Arena Mode!

------
New Rule!  Arena Mode!
Arena Mode might begin when two very powerful opponents enter battle.  In this mode, the gods can place FP bets on the side they think will be victorious in battle.

The participants, if they want, can write a short description of tactics they use, or clever tricks they want to try, something like that.  Then message it to me.

Meanwhile, the gods can place wagers on their favorite side.  If the GM judges the two sides to be equal, he'll pay out 1 FP for every 1 FP bet, on both sides.  (a 1:1 payout)  If the GM judges the two sides to be unequal, he'll increase the payout on the weaker side, and reduce it on the stronger side.

Then the gods can cheat!  Each god can spend 1, 2, or 3 FP to influence the battle in favor of their favorite, if they want.
-- 1 point gives you a minor influence on the battle, which should be something like sudden gust of wind knocking someone off balance, or creating dog shit underfoot, causing someone to slip at the wrong moment, etc..  Something minor and not real obvious.
-- 2 points gives you a medium influence.  Something more obvious, such as a sudden hailstorm pelting a side with hailstones, or a fair maiden on a white horse appearing and distracting at just the right moment.
-- 3 points gives you a major influence.  This is something blatantly divine, such as a godly fist coming down from the heavens and grabbing someone's sword arm just as they're about to deliver the killing blow.
-- Battle influences can't be anything harmful and can't permanently change the fighters.
-- Cheating in this way is done by messaging the GM, not in thread.

The GM will use all these influences, as well as the power of each opponent, to determine the outcome of the battle.  Then the GM will describe the battle, and finish resolving the turn.

Obviously, in order to bet on the match, you must have FP.  You can't bet more FP than you have.  You can only cheat with FP left over after betting.  The FP you can use to bet and cheat is the FP total you have at the beginning of the turn, before any actions have taken place.  Thus, if you bet and lose, it's possible you won't have enough FP to perform the actions you wanted to do.
-----

For this battle, we have The Champion of the People, wielding the mighty warhammer !*Rehield*!, against the Demihuman Colossus, wielding a giant stone sword.  They're fighting in the wide open plains of tile H5.  Earthquakes caused by the Year of the Dragon might influence this battle!

The GM determines that the Colossus is a slight underdog.  The payout for betting on the Champion will be 0.8 FP per 1 FP bet, or a gain of 8 if 10 is wagered.  The payout for betting on the Colossus will be 1.2 FP per 1 FP bet, or a gain of 12 if 10 is wagered.

Current god FP totals:
Nagas (Snakes): 7 FP
Amastay (Construction): 4 FP
Blarg (Swamps): 3 FP
Mabel (Demihumans): 11 FP
Malvol (Slaughter): 10 FP
Farsky (Titans): 6 FP
Izzith (Magic): 13 FP
Disci (Discipline): 3 FP


As you can see, we're trying something a little different.  Hopefully everything is clear.  Feel free to ask questions if not.
The battle lasts only 1 round.
Oh, and one more thing -- As of this post, you cannot alter your actions for the turn!  The rest of the turn will be concluded after the battle!

I don't think this is a good idea, it holds the game up for everyone in an event that only a few can really participate in.

To be fair, the GM updates this game near daily.

Their's only been a single time I've been playing that's taken 2 days.

Amastay (Construction): 4 FP
Blarg (Swamps): 3 FP
Mabel (Demihumans): 11 FP
Malvol (Slaughter): 10 FP
Farsky (Titans): 6 FP
Izzith (Magic): 13 FP
Disci (Discipline): 3 FP

Where am I? :(
Should be Holo (Harvest) with 2 FP (or 3 since technically I haven't created that plot of land yet), unless since I joined this round I don't get to bet?

I play as a god in the other gridhood and I end up just sitting there for a long time, so I like the change of passe, and the random events this one has.

Any actions of that turn can't be changed at the moment. That and you technically don't exist yet.


Civs can't found a civ on a tile that has yet to be made for example.

Holo can bet if she wants.  You have 3 FP.

I thought the civs might be kind of disappointed.  This will probably be an occasional kind of thing.  If currency ever becomes a thing, I'll allow civ betting.

If this turns out to be unpopular, I won't do it in the future.  I just wanted to see something like you see in the Greek myths where the gods subtly help out their favorite in a battle.  It also brings the possibility for all kinds of interesting intrigue.

This should be an eventful turn.  The outcome of this battle will alter the balance of power significantly.

I don't mind this eventful turn, I like the flavor it is adding to the game. Maybe there could be more events like this in the future, though with more foreshadowing and preparation.

Tournaments or/and contests of wits/luck where civs must send a champion/representative, which would emulate some of the whacky myths of mythology.

Or keep it hidden, and force us to research Oracle tech! Ahaha. Crap.

Arena Mode Result:
The Champion of The People could see the Colossus as he neared his destination from quite far away.  As he got closer, he wondered at the absurdity of being ordered to fight that.  For the Colossus was like a mountain of stone that stood on two legs.

He felt numb.  He did not even want to be the Champion.  He was perfectly content to spend his days in anonymity foraging or researching.  He didn't understand why he had to be chosen by Amastay.

There is no way I can defeat that thing, he thought, as the size of the Demihuman Colossus became apparent.  And as he approached, the ground suddenly lurched.  For the bewildering moment before he realized that it was an earthquake, he felt confused despair.  When the shaking stopped, he could see that the Colossus still stood there waiting for him, unfazed.

But then there was suddenly a reassuring breeze.  For some reason his thinking became more clear, as if the breeze had dispersed his dark thoughts.  He found that he felt more bold and determined as he hefted the strange hammer with the blue haft.  He approached, and as he got close enough, he charged.

The Colossus seemed to take some time to come to life.  By the time the Colossus began moving, taking hold of the giant stone sword slung on its back, the Champion had already closed the distance, and was running between its legs.  The Champion swung !*Rehield*! at a leg as he passed underneath, and there was an otherworldly metallic clang as the hammer bit out a chunk, leaving a red-hot smoldering gash.  The clang was strangely persistent in the air as the Champion turned for another pass.

By now, the Colossus was moving with surprising speed, considering its size; but the Champion dashed between its legs again, and !*Rehield*! bit out a chunk of the other leg.

The Champion now circled again, and observed the speed with which the Colossus swept the giant stone sword.  With a split-second thought, Champion calculated that if he timed it right, he could duck the swing, dodge towards the Colossus, and be in position to take out a kneecap.  But right before the moment to duck came, there was suddenly another lurching of the ground, this time violently.  Surprised, the Champion stumbled toward the Colossus, out of the path of the stone blade, but into the path of the stone hands holding the blade.  The Champion was struck by the massive stone hands, sending him flying a good 20 meters.

The earth was still violently shaking as he hit the ground.  Luckily, even the Colossus had trouble keeping its footing, giving him some time to recompose himself.

His left side was in immense pain from broken ribs, and his left arm wouldn't move and was numb.  He realized that he had lost hold of !*Rehield*!, but couldn't spare a moment to look around for it, since he had to roll quickly to the right to avoid a massive stone fist intent on crushing him.  After rolling, he sprang to his feet and looked around wildly, and saw a blue glint a ways away on the other side of the Colossus.

He sprinted towards the glint, and dodged, and ducked another swing of the giant sword.  He made it to the hammer, picked it up, spun and heaved it at the head of the Colossus as it was off balance at the end of the swing.  The hammer, luckily, went hammer-side first into the side of the head of the Colossus.  The hammer came out the other side of its head, leaving a large crater.  The Colossus stumbled, and the massive head cracked and then split in half, one half falling to the front, the other half falling to the rear.  The stone sword dropped to the ground, and the body fell and ceased moving.

Result:  Champion of the People was victorious, but injured!

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 3 primitive, 6 giant primitive (houses 12 total)
Resources:
11 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
39 food
3 bloodberries
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.
 A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 4 primitive, 3 fine mud (houses 7.75 total)
Resources:
10 workers (1 injured)
5 food
3 reagents
5 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Domestication, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:
7 workers
1 "namepending", Legendary Champion Warrior (injured, absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
3 Food
4 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 7 primitive
Resources:
2 workers
3 slightly snake-like workers
1 spear warriors
2 slightly snake-like spear warrior
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
16 food
6 crude spears
2 crude tools
3 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
20 food
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 4 of 6 (incomplete)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:
5 workers
4 apprentices
1 writer
19 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:

Disci invest 10 FP into the Divine Project The Swamp of Every Challenge at H2

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Divine Project: The Swamp of Every Challenge
This swamp is filled with terrible beasts that are quite happy to stay in said swamp area. From gigantic toads to spider headed wolves, you can fight every fear at these lands. In the middle of the swamp is an island which is covered in mazes. It is at the mazes where you can find the wisdoms of discipline. Prolonged stays at the Swamp of Every challenge will lead to a sharp increase in skills and discipline due to the fact that anything in this swamp is out to kill you. The ones that have challenged the mazes and succeeded to read the wisdoms of disciplines off of stone tablets scattered through the maze gain the power to call people surrounding them to reason and more discipline. This is known as Disci's Aura.

There are five mazes and each of the mazes changes its layout on a regular basis due to shifting hedges and small magical earthquakes. The five mazes, though too complex to truely classify, are:
The Labyrinth of Fire, The Hedgemaze of Wood, The Knot of Winds, The Wet Puzzle, The Confusion of Earth

Roleplaying, of course! Our civs have clashed over foraging sites at least 3 times, and my tribespeople are aggressive by nature. The Xekarni have yet to encounter anyone from the Dipnoi Republic, so it wouldn't have made any sense to target them.

I've targeted diagonally adjacent tiles several times, so the answer is almost definitely 'yes'.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy works to repair the damages caused.  Knowing that the era they are in is the "Stone Age", the Giants figure that mastery over Stone is probably going to be essential for their advancement.

They also take note of the fourth patron god, Holo. The Jotun Oligarchy is optimistic about their future as they planned to harvest in abundance long before the existence of Holo became known to them.

(In addition to the food error noted below, I should have a total of 8 research points in animal husbandry. I may want to edit my turn if the tech is useful, and at an 8RP cost it probably should be. Also worth noting is that the bloodberries were depleted before 5 turns?)

I should probably word that differently.  I meant that you can't have more than 10 houses.  Not without some kind of tech or help from the gods.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 9 giant primitive (houses 13.5 total)
Resources:
11 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer
30 food
3 bloodberries
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 5 of 6 (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 5 primitive, 4 fine mud (houses 10 total)
Resources:
11 workers (1 injured)
8 food
3 reagents
5 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Domestication, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
7 workers
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
1 Food
2 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
2 workers
3 slightly snake-like workers
1 spear warriors
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
15 food
6 crude spears
4 crude tools
8 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
29 food
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:

4 apprentices
1 writer
12 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

Amastay notes that the champion is successful but injured. To reward him for his triumph and cement his position as the champion of Amastay, he creates the Armor of Purity for 10 fp. The armor is made of an incredibly hard and light yellow metal. The armor will purge all venom/poisons and toxins from the wearer, "Purifying" them. It provides excellent protection from attacks to the upper or lower body, but does not cover the arms or the head.

He then gifts this armor to the Champion of The People.

Things do not happen until they appear in a turn update.  Thus, it is impossible for new civilizations to appear on the first turn, as there is no land.  For conflicting actions on the same turn, such as two gods creating land on the same tile, the first action posted takes precedence.  FP spent on actions that conflict with another is still used.

See the above quote from the first post.

The Jotun Oligarchy request that Mabel consider a different solution, as they dislike the idea of the FP they produced being wasted like this. Her action as it is now would not do anything AND cost her FP. (The rule exists to prevent edit wars and abusing game mechanics. Think of the mess it would cause if every god tried to act last to get some kind of advantage!)

(In other news, I think I should hold off doing my turn until I can see the progress on my research project and whether or not it revealed its requirement)

I don't see why you would feel the need to take retaliatory action against him in two separate games, because you are most certainly undermining his objectives in a clear retaliatory manner in Bay12 edition too.

Zazmio, how do you feel about players taking retaliatory actions against other players in your game, for things that happened in my game?

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Lenglon on June 11, 2018, 09:44:42 pm

So you're carrying a grudge from some other game into this? Scum. And you're declaring your intent to escalate without end when youve made two prior agressive acts and are making two more this turn, and im preparing to make my first one this turn in response. Welp, either youre bluffing, or I should go into full war of annihilation mode.

Are you really sure this is what you want. If push comes to shove, I am sitting on quite a bit of FP right now, and you have many undefended targets. Your position is far worse than mine in both short term power and long term income sources. I actively would prefer to not do it, and am willing to show restraint generally, but the orassans are under my protection and if you want to start a fight I will win.

Keep your gripe in one game restricted to that one game. I assume you can show more maturity than a middle-schooler.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: helmacon on June 11, 2018, 09:52:25 pm

Yea...

I think it's fine to hold a grudge within a game in terms of role-playing, but holding onto something from a completely different game is weirdly personal and immature. Not to mention that it is obvious meta-gaming as well, which is generally frowned upon.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Maximum Spin on June 11, 2018, 10:51:32 pm

I'm not actually holding a grudge against anybody! You must see how this is obviously a joke, right? I mean, the concept of man-eating seagulls didn't tip you off that I'm not taking this too seriously?

ETA: I think possibly there has been some misunderstanding related to the fact that some people thought I was wreaking havoc on their home tile. This is just some nearby tile they haven't even been going to; I don't expect this to have any realistic effect on the game other than continuing this seagull running gag I've been doing across all Gridhoods so far, nor to actually impede the Orassans in any meaningful way. And, well, the ostensibly retaliatory action taken in Original Recipe Gridhood that Supernerd mentions amounted to wasting power doing something that serves no purpose other than to make the map look slightly dumber, also as a joke. The net effect being nothing more than to perpetuate the role I've been playing in all these games, which is of a slightly cracked god (or, well, series of gods who may or may not be somehow inscrutably the same despite behaving totally differently except for a curious fascination with seagulls) who sometimes does completely arbitrary things for what he will definitely insist are TOTALLY VALID, PROBABLY SHOUTY REASONS. Because, uh, gods do weird things sometimes. Like make seagulls.

Martial artist ones. I want to go road of self-improvement, with various research dedicated to making monks into survive-all-hardships enlightened badasses. With no advanced tech (because who needs it when you have fists of steel and stone-like bodies?) - even primitive weapons are invented as a tool for hunting only.

Cait Sith
4 apprentices restart research on Advanced Magic Theory. 1 is using the Arcanum Botanica for references.  Advanced Magic Theory is still stalled.  One of the apprentices theorizes that the Cait Sith might need at least one Philosopher to introduce more advanced ways of thinking.  2 apprentices think that Magic Runes like in the Arcanum Botanica might be necessary, and research it.  1 apprentice finds a small section in the back of Arcanum Botanica describing some kind of building.  The book is written in what is called an abjad (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abjad) script, meaning that vowels are implied and not written.  This makes it hard to figure out how some words are pronounced, because the vowels for unfamiliar proper names have to be guessed, but the name for it is something like "Higawayrtsa," or "Hagweratas," or "Hegwurths," something like that.
2 workers pick up crude spears and fish at J-1 and get 7 food.
2 workers pick up their spears and fish at K-1 and get 5 food.  Izzith gets 1 FP!

3 workers research coral farming.
Spent 6 food to make 2 workers.  The 2 new workers morph into aquatic nagas!  Nagas gets 6 FP!!!  Mabel gets 2 FP!
1 worker dies of starvation!

Jotun Oligarchy
1 workers using no tools, 1 Bountiful Gatherer using no tools and 1 Greenthumb using the artifact "Bountiful Basket" harvest from the Orchard at C4 and find 19 food.  Holo gets 3 FP!

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
12 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer
24.5 food
3 bloodberries
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 6 primitive, 4 fine mud (houses 11 total)
Resources:
11 workers
10 food
3 reagents
5 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Domestication, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
7 workers
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
5 Food
2 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
3 workers
3 slightly snake-like workers
1 spear warriors (injured)
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
13 food
6 crude spears
4 crude tools
8 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
33 food
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
5 workers
4 apprentices
1 writer
14 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Spiritualism, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

Interesting trait.  Are we talking about European Christian-style monks?  Or fantasy/Asian martial artist monks?

Martial artist ones. I want to go road of self-improvement, with various research dedicated to making monks into survive-all-hardships enlightened badasses. With no advanced tech (because who needs it when you have fists of steel and stone-like bodies?) - even primitive weapons are invented as a tool for hunting only. But if it is possible to substitute crude weapons with some martial style - I'd go for it!

Martial artists use weapons too.  Right?

Izzith spends 20 FP creating Bakhon the Wondrous at H5!

Bakhon the Wondrous is a powerful Djinn bestowed with vast knowledge of magic from his creator. He uses the power brazenly and ostentatiously, loving to show off his power and skill. As the most powerful creature yet born in his time he is incredibly arrogant towards mortals and will react violently if he feels he is insulted. As a Djinn however his nature compels him to use his power to provide boons to those he deems worthy, usually those who complete a quest or trial he has given them.

Oh, okay, I didn't expect to clear up that argument so easily. I would've gone ahead and taken orca's offer if I had! Well, these things happen.

Uh, let's see.

Nagas Zaps a random worker of the Hidden Monastery with knowledge of the cobra-style martial arts, whatever that is. It probably involves standing really still and then making a sudden jabbing strike, or something. Nagas isn't a martial artist and doesn't concern himself with these details!

Anyway, Nagas is still not totally sure about how these 'Zaps' work but expects this to probably take 3FP? So, if there's enough FP left over, he also creates a magical talking Elder Lindorm at J2 — a winged serpent who guards the forest and can probably be bargained with for magical secrets or something.

Wow, I'm a little vaguer than usual today, huh.

((Is the Swamp of Strength effect on I5 automatically applied to all of my citizens, or just newly created workers? I ask because it hasn't been mentioned thus far.))

The Xekarni

Goruk returns from the hunt with a wounded warrior in tow, and is angered to find that the tribe has taken no steps to secure their home against colossus-shattering demons in his absence. Despite this, the Chief recognises the clear mark of Malvol's divine intent, and grudgingly allows his former brother-in-arms to continue babbling about horses to his peers. It is nonetheless made clear that the weapons are to be kept within reach at all times.

Jotun Oligarchy

Realizing that the Orchard would not be enough to support the Jotun Oligarchy's growing population on its own, the Giants work diligently to ramp up their harvesting ability by upgrading the orchard to a giant orchard and preparing to ranch some egg-laying snakes.

That last sentence alone probably honors no less than three gods.

It is decided that the Bountiful Gatherer should be given one of the Bloodberries, as they would benefit the most from a bonus to physical labor. Especially if they will be moving heavy stone around.

(I decided to try a new format for my posts that separates actions by logistic slots. I think it might be easier to interpret it like this as I foresee myself having several different kinds of workers performing the same tasks)

Should Amastay have gotten FP for my 9 people constructing things? I'm also wondering if Holo should have got FP from the orchard again.

I knew I was forgetting something.  Added FP to Amastay and to Holo.

((Is the Swamp of Strength effect on I5 automatically applied to all of my citizens, or just newly created workers? I ask because it hasn't been mentioned thus far.))

I added a note to your civ details.  The tile is increasing the strength, agility, and endurance of all your workers.  If the tile altered just one worker, the effect would be greater, but since the it alters everything in the tile, the effect is spread out.

We are 17 turns in, and the starting civilizations have grown quite well! Here is how I would rank everyone.

1. The Jotun Oligarchy
They are the uncontested 1st civilization in my opinion. Despite having only 26 Research Points, they have the highest population with 14 Giant Workers! Their food source is also pretty secure, they are able to feed their whole population with only 3 Workers (Greenthumb+Artifact included)!

2a. Cait Sith 35 Research Points and 10 Workers.
2b. Orassan Empire 30 Research Points and 10 Workers.
These two civilizations benefit from isolation, and they both have their own advantages over the other.
On one hand the Cait Siths sport a fast research speed which will turn them into a very strong civilization in the close future, especially since they are focusing solely on magic.
The Orassan though have a bountiful basket which allows them to sustain their population with only 3 Workers and focus more resources on research and construction.

3. The Xekarni 34 Research Points, 9 Workers and 1 Legendary Spear Warrior.
In my opinion, the Xekarni are the uncontested strongest civilization military-wise. They received great blessings from the Gods, and unlocked several combat-oriented technologies. But the People still have the Legendary Champion Warrior with two Artifacts, and depending on the future clashes, the Xekarni could lose their spot. But if they were to win, then nothing would stop them from draining the People and the Dipnoi from their resources, thus highly like earning the 2nd spot.

4a. Dipnoi Republic 35 Research Points and 11 Workers.
4b. The People 30 Research Points, 7 Workers and 1 Legendary Champion Warrior with Artifacts.
Unlike the Jotun and the Orassan, these two civs need to deploy 5 to 6 Workers to sustain their population, which limits their growth.
If the People hadn't been raided, they would be tied with the Xekarni. If they don't lose their Champion, and depending on the future battles with the Xekarni, they could either take 3rd place or even 2nd place. If they lose their Champion, recovery will be impossible on their own.
It's also amusing to think that the Tame Giant Anaconda of the Dipnoi ended up being a food draining freeloader, at least for now.

5. The rest
The Merfolk Council 7 Research Points and 9 Workers.
Hidden Monastery newcomers!
The two most recent civs!

Philosophers can do nothing except argue about philosophy.  I will allow writer apprentices.

Honestly I think my position is a little bit precarious. It only takes one angry god to completely wreck a tile after all, though I am starting to diversify. So far the majority of the gods like me or at least tolerate me because I tend to generate a lot of passive FP, or at the very least tolerate me with a preference for helping other civs. Being singled out as #1 by the GM puts a bit more pressure on me, but probably no more than the Nirii Dominion from my game.

With what is soon to be a Giant Orchard worth 20 labor and 5 acts, it wouldn't be too hard for a god to threaten me. Though all the passive FP I generate for multiple different gods is probably acting as a deterrent.

You're the chosen people of Farsky, one of the peoples of Mabel, and on good terms with Blarg, Nagas, Holo, Amastay, and Izzith.
You have so much divine protection it's silly.

Izzith isn't getting all that much out of me. I should probably get around to ranching those mammoths sooner rather than later. I'm not sure why Blarg would like me though. I don't think I ever generated any FP for Blarg even once. Though its not my fault I don't have a swamp.

Actually, I declared them one of my Chosen People too. Although that might be diluted since I have three Chosen People at this point and am angling for a fourth, and being a Chosen of Nagas only gets you snakes, so it might be a wash.

Holo creates an artifact: Giant-sized Flint Sickle of Harvesting, and gifts it to the Jotun Oligarchy! It has the ability to turn a bad harvest into a good one. Be careful! Using it too often will weaken the soil.

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
13 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
17 food
2 bloodberries
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
12 workers
3 food
3 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
9 Food
3 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
3 workers
1 slightly snake-like worker
2 moderately snake-like workers

Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

36 food
5 crude tools
3 crude spears

Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 3 of ? (incomplete)

Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Spiritualism, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

Harnessing the fourteen FP that built up Farsky  starts a project to make a location filled with stones imbued with powerful magic (handing what these do over to you GM, sorry I haven't been active, I have been on a boat for a few days.)

I decided not to make your project since I don't want to "fill in the blanks" for players when they make stuff.  If you are on vacation, that is fine.  I will not remove Farsky while you're on vacation.  I just don't want to have to go through and update FP totals and keep an eye on the aspects of gods who have apparently stopped playing.

The Zebras attempted to raid the Merfolk at F6!  Apparently, they were trying to get victims to sacrifice to the glory of Blarg!  Unfortunately, they couldn't swim very well!  Many of them drowned!  Zebra corpses sink to the bottom, which the Merfolk butcher for 5 food!

"Oh come on guys, what the hell are you guys doing it wasn't that bad the first time but now you go and try to kill people you don't know and you get some of your selves killed in the process, for shame!" Rolls up a news paper and smacks them on the noses while saying, "Bad Zebras!"

"I was going to improve your home but now I have to teach you guys why what your doing is bad."
Blarg spends some FP to teach the Zebras how to worship with out sacrificing any living or nonliving sentient thing.

I'm going to try adding a new spoiler to my actions called "Probable FP Triggers" to this turn.

 Farsky acts
Frustrated in his carelessness he reaches out and congragulates ymir on their victory over the colossus. Then, he starts a divine project, the titangate, a tile at h5, investing all 17 FP into it.
The titangate is a vast mountain that acts as a gateway to the realm of the colossi, letting one of the beasts and a horde of other, smaller monsters into the realm every few turns. The colossi are similar to the demihuman colossus that was slain there. The beasts are just flavor text mostly, anything that can get past them can fight the colossi they serve anyway. It also has magic ore, and lightning.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
13 workers
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
35.5 food
2 bloodberries
6 stone
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also train wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
9 workers
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
11 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)

4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 10 of ? (incomplete)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

I just noticed an accounting mistake. The Dipnoi Republic should be out of Reagents, as they used up all of them to heal a Worker on turn 17.

Dipnoi Republic
These pygmies ended up being unrefined and aggressive! It would be wise for us to properly consider how to deal with them. Our workers reported that these savages could speak our language, so maybe a peaceful solution could be attained. We will take a decision later, as another Year of Change is coming soon. As our Food reserves are low, it would be wise to focus on gathering sustenance for now.

And now that we understand the ways of the snakes, we will be able to make them our allies.

This enables the wearer to explore freely and to easily self-sustain during their travels, as well as providing a measure of protection from threats. Removal of the hair-ribbon will return them to their normal form.

(can I improve the seagulls with the 3FP I have left? if so then also do this:)Improve the seagulls' (C4) intelligence and cooperation, so that they can hunt more effectively

I've been charging Blarg 5 when he improves the Zebras.  So I'll have to say it'll cost 5 FP.

Ok, I'll edit it out of my action then

Or you could do that instead of helping me. I don't really need another dedicated warrior right now.

It should also be good for hunting, so you can use the guy to get food too

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
10 workers (1 injured)
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
49.5 food
0 bloodberries
12 stone
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized houses house 1.5X giant workers, or 3X normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 10 of 12 (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
11 workers (1 injured)
1 snake tamer
9 food
0 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers (1 injured)
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
7 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 4 of 5 (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 3 of 5 (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
3 workers
1 slightly snake-like worker
2 moderately snake-like workers
1 spear warriors
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
15 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
5 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 8 primitive
Resources:
4 workers (2 injured)
6 cat-like demihuman workers
52 food
11 wood
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
3 apprentices
1 disciplined apprentice
1 writer
1 philosopher
12 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

The Merfolk Council
Tile: F6
Trait: Merpeople
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
6 workers
3 aquatic Naga worker
7 food
Technologies:
Water Dominion, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Coral Farming, 8 of 8 (Coral farms can be built in salt water tiles.  They are identical to land farms but can only be in salt water.  They cost 10 labor and no resources to make.  Command to farm:  "X workers farm at A1 with X tools".)

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 master cobra-style martial artist
8 food
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)

1 Snake Tamer trains the Tame Giant Anaconda for Hunting

I made a mistake.  I wrote in your tech that you can train wild nonsentient snakes, but I meant to write tame wild nonsentient snakes.  I'm not sure if I'll allow training animals to do specific things, 'cause that would be yet more record keeping

No problem with that, that's actually a relief. I was worried Tame animals had to be trained before being able to be ordered. Editing my action!

Nagas Zaps one worker of the Hidden Monastery with mastery over the python-style martial arts! The python-style martial arts mainly involve crushing things in the martial artist's fearsome grip or embrace. And by "mainly" I mean "entirely". This costs 3FP!

Shouldn't the Bloodberried workers have fought back? I can understand how it may or may not work, but I didn't see any reference to them in the combat.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy identifies the threat that the seagulls pose, and immediately prepare to avert the threat in the future. All available workers immediately drop what they are doing and begin research on a weapon that can attack from range; a device known as a Sling used to hurt stone at high speed. Next time they have to deal with the seagulls they do not intend to lose.

The 2 that ate them this turn don't get the bonus until the end of the turn.  In any case, I don't think the bloodberry buff would help much against a horde of flying crazed carnivorous seagulls.

Make the research boosting birds of paradise on J9 permanent

A permanent research boost would be very, very powerful.  I don't even know how much it should cost.  What do you guys think?  50 FP? 100?

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on June 16, 2018, 05:03:06 pm

It would be a minimum of 30 in my game, but FP generation is much slower in my game. I'm thinking the equivalent in your game would maybe be 100 FP?

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Nakéen on June 16, 2018, 05:20:37 pm

It depends on the potency of the research boost to me. Using the Swamp of Strength, I would say 10 or 15 FP for a pzrmanent boost applying to basic and semi-intermediate techs, as in those costing less than 10RP.

Or maybe 15FP minimum if we are using creature costs, in which case you could also have these birds migrate randomly if you feel their effect starts going out of hand.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on June 16, 2018, 05:59:30 pm

I'll also mention that I'm pretty sure that seagulls are substantially smaller than humans, let alone giants. The bones of any normal bird would need to be hollow so that they are light enough to fly which makes them pretty vulnerable to blunt attacks such as punches.

Know what? I'm just going to assume that the "Year of the Bird" effect on them was simply astronomical and multiplied their strength by no less than 500%, to be able to fight against eight giants and take no casualties.

Sure, a giant could swat a single seagull and crush it, assuming he managed to hit it.  But we're talking about a crazed flying horde, diving at you repeatedly and biting at your eyes.  I don't think any amount of super speed and strength would help much.  It's kind of like if you step on a mound of fire ants.  One or a few fire ants are easily crushed, but thousands of them swarming your leg is another story.

Well, we do have fire breathing horses :p

I imagine that the Giants reenacted a live version of The Birds movie. With super seagulls.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on June 16, 2018, 09:57:45 pm

Well, I would still think the Giants would hit the FIRST seagull that went at them with their longer reach.

What would it cost to keep it, but have it restricted to bird related things? ex. a martial arts style that emulates the movement of birds
Or maybe make it weaker, like 1.1 research be worker used?(not sure what the boost is though)

0.1 bonus research per worker would be pretty reasonable, I guess.  You could make a flock of birds that give that bonus when they're in your tile.  How about we say 10 FP per +0.1 given.

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
11 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
23.5 food
0 bloodberries
12 stone
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
10 workers
2 snake tamers
5 food
0 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Architecture, 3 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
26 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 4 of 5 (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 3 of 5 (incomplete)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Equine Fire, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
60 food
18 wood
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 7 of ? (incomplete)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
3 apprentices
1 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer
1 philosopher
13 food
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)

Some notes about inactivity:

Every player requires some book keeping, slowing down turn processing.  Even the gods; every turn has to be scanned through to see if their aspect gets triggered.  Inactive players increase GM work and turn processing time without contributing anything in return to the game.  Therefore, players who are inactive for 3 or more turns -- even gods -- will be removed.

The following players are in danger of being removed this turn:

The Merfolk Council
Malvol, god of Slaughter

You don't necessarily have to take any actions to avoid removal.  Simply posting to express interest in the game is sufficient.  If you are on vacation and can't do anything, but still want to play, post in the thread saying so.  I'll let players on vacation who still want to play stagnate for as long as they need.

Are you trying to make a worker who makes buildings that are better than normal?  I think that would cost a lot more than 3 FP.  I'm also not sure how I would implement that in game...

Post by: Supernerd on June 17, 2018, 05:15:51 pm

I would recommend giving players at least a 24 hour notice before kicking them, as not every persons schedule allows them to access the internet in less than 24 hours. Especially god players who may have just been waiting for FP. That being said, I would give them one additional turn before kicking them this time.

Well, ordinarily, mud building would be very limited in how much you can actually build, especially in the structure height. So I figured I'd try granting them the ability to build things that would not ordinarily be possible to build from mud. Like a mud tower of babel. Does that sound like a thing I can do?

I'm pretty sure the Mefolk have lost interest and will be removed this turn.  I'll give Malvol one more turn since it's possible he might have assumed that gods can go inactive for as long as they want, like in your game.

Normally before you can build something you can't normally build -- such as a Tower of Babel -- you would have to research something first.  What you are describing is a worker who pretty much ignores tech and builds whatever he wants.  I think this might cost an impossible amount of FP...

Or are you trying to make a worker who can make buildings out of mud that can't normally be made of mud?  So far, the Dipnoi haven't encountered any building that can't be made of mud.  So that worker might be useless...

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 10 giant primitive (houses 15 total)
Resources:
11 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
26 food
0 bloodberries
12 stone
6 slings
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
9 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
5 food
0 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 6 of ? (incomplete)

Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
22 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 4 of 5 (incomplete)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)

1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (slightly snake-like)
5 food

Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Equine Fire, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
71 food
26 wood
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 8 of 10 (incomplete)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
2 apprentices
2 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 philosopher
15 food
1 book-making material
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 master cobra-style martial artist
8 food
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

Nagas had 4 FP on turn 21.  He spent 3 but gained 1+8 on turn 22 for a total gain of 6.  6+4=10 FP.

Are you wanting them in your home tile or the one next to it? Mostly asking because Zazmio never answered my question as to weather or not I could add to a tile with out having to completely remake it.

Nagas spends some time contemplating new martial art styles potentially involving dislocating your jaw to swallow foes whole or flapping your arms to take aloft and defecate on your enemies from on high, but ultimately consigns these to the drawing board before causing the Desert of Skulking Serpents to form at J10! The sands of this desert are crawling with snakes ranging from the essentially harmless to the occasionally fearsome. Though some are dangerous, the snakes and their eggs would make a great food source, probably. Assuming that this will cost 5FP, he then also Zaps a(nother) Dipnoi worker with the ability to command great respect among swamp pygmies, perhaps by his fearsome eyebrows. Do lungfish have eyebrows, you ask? Well, this one does. Nagas sits on his remaining two FP for now.

You can add something specific to a tile. Large Luminous Trees that reach up from the bottom of the Mangroves seem like an extra addition. And yeah, getting them in our home tile would be nice, since we can use the Arcanium to twist it into Tree-housing once we hit Advanced Magic.


Granted, Maybe just add one for 5 FP. We can grow more if we need to later.

Well so much for that, not a single civ worshiped me at all last turn. I suppose that nobody worshiping is better than someone only worshiping once because then I would be obligated to give them an Arcanum for a pittance.

Does seriously no one want a custom artifact spellbook? I mean with the spellbook you can cast any simple spell within its theme with only one reagent, you don't even need to be magical or have researched magic.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: TricMagic on June 18, 2018, 11:28:46 am

Um, I'm pretty sure that isn't how that would work, unless you spent even more FP on it.

At least you got 3 FP from the first spell cast this game.

Amastay, the god of construction, announces a challenge to all present civs in the world.

Worship so far has been sporadic and the power of the gods is more or less a toss up. Whoever should immortalize Amastay with a properly built temple will revive an artifact of 25 fp power.

Amastay is the God of construction, so his temple must reflect that. It must be built of materials that will last (so no mud) and be dedicated to Amastay.

You may request a specific type of artifact once the temple is complete.

Amastay well also consider any civ with his temple to be a part of his people, and protect them in the future likewise.

farsky acts 
Can we all agree that destroying a tile that costs more than 30 FP and was a collaboration is a bad idea?
Beyond that I start a project for an artifact at H5, this artifact is a stone commemorating the completion of the titangate. It is has the names of each God who contributed and how much they contributed. It also has a short description of what the titangate does. Finally it is written in runes that squirm on the stone, yet are instantly understandable. I put my 3 fP into its creation. It is called the stone of memorial.

The Jotun Oligarchy resume their work. They consider that they will require a vast amount of stone to upgrade their housing but they don't have any particularly good places to harvest it.

I believe that destroying an artifact of great power should take at least 3 gods spending 5 FP each. So long as said artifact is not super destructive to everyone.

Anyone with 3 FP can replace any tile, assuming there's no protection.  One god could spend 100 FP on a tile, and then have another god replace it with a desert for only 3 FP.  It's a big problem with special lands.

This makes me wonder if it is really even worth it to make special lands, with the current rules.  You could do great things with artifacts, probably just as much as with lands, but they currently can't be destroyed.  Maybe I should allow a destruction Zap that targets artifacts.

There is currently no plan to give civs a second trait.  It might be possible to effectively give a second trait to a civ using shitloads of FP.

And yes, you can add to the power of a tile without completely changing it.

Edit:  Yes, the civs already have knowledge of fire.

Personally, I think that is possibly one of the best parts of the rules. It prevents any one god player from getting too uppity and encourages spreading your power out into a lot of small projects instead of pouring power into a single tile, which is a dynamic I distinctly like. I do think an artefact-destruction Zap is a good idea as well for the same reason!

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on June 18, 2018, 05:14:41 pm

In my game, high quality tiles are a symbol of one god's superiority over the others, because they are expensive and take twice as much power to protect than they do to destroy. That is why there are so few tiles that are better tier than "Special" in my game.

The trick is to get maximum benefit from the tiles without upsetting other gods.

Malvol decides to float off, to a land more well-suited towards himself. Before leaving, he spends 20 FP on C3. The bushes now forever sprout berries, as normal plants would. They are now more powerful, and especially potent for those going on violent missions.

Mabel
Create a Fey Hair-Ribbon at J9. One that weaves this ribbon into their hair will change into a magical demihuman well-adapted for the terrain they're in, and will keep shifting as they move from place to place or the tile changes about themselves. This enables the wearer to explore freely and to easily self-sustain during their travels, as well as providing a measure of protection from threats. Removal of the hair-ribbon will return them to their normal form.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 9 giant primitive, 1 giant stone (houses 16.5 total)
Resources:
12 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
28.5 food
0 bloodberries
9 stone
6 slings
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
8 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
11 food
0 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 9 of 10 (incomplete)
Architecture, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
16 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Logistics, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
3 workers
1 slightly snake-like worker
2 moderately snake-like workers
1 moderately snake-like spear warrior
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (moderately snake-like)
11 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
5 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 11 of 12 (incomplete)
Equine Fire, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
71 food
26 wood
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 8 of 10 (incomplete)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
2 apprentices
2 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 philosopher
15 food
1 book-making material
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 6 of ? (incomplete)

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 master cobra-style martial artist
5 food
2 wood
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

if i zapped one to get an ability they have not yet discovered does it cost more fp?

if i zapped a worker who aleady has a trait like disciplined or writer will it overwrite it? i think not but want to make sure.

Accounting mistake? The Mud Brick research was at 6RP on turn 22, and 3 Workers (mud specialist included) researched it for Turn 23. It is currently at 8RP, shouldn't it be a bit higher?

Nagas Zaps a worker of the Xekarni with a fearsome venomous bite, and hisses into his ear:

"Your people sseek after purpossse? Find the champion of the foressst to the easst and besssst him to prove your worth, when you think you are able. My followers to the sssssouth shall be your allies. Sssay to them that you come under the ausssspice of Nagas. Put your faith in the sssnake and the sssnake will guide you. Devote yourssselves to me, and your people shall be warm and fed for all their days. Your firssst assssssignment: learn the wayss of far travel sso you can meet the desssert monks to the dissstant sssouth, and learn from their masssters of the artss of battle. By combining the sssskills of the three peoplesss, the wolf-guardian may be overcome, and you will be ready for ssstill greater challenges..."

After some thought, he then Zaps a member of the Hidden Monastery with mastery over the seagull-style martial arts; this acrobatic style demands the practitioner cultivate the ability to leap to great heights and deal the foe fierce kicks and raking blows from above. It neither requires nor expressly forbids defecation.

I suppose I should reveal some more secrets of the almighty Zap.

When you zap a civ, a worker is picked at random to be targeted (except healing zaps).  Any worker in the civ could end up targeted, including legendary workers.

The wording of the Zap might be important.  If you say something like "Zaps a worker with" or "giving," or "gifting," or something like that, I'll probably assume you're adding something to a worker.  If you "make someone into" something, I might "overwrite" a worker.  If it's ambiguous, I will make a guess without putting a lot of thought into it.  In the case of Disci's discipline, I've just been assuming that you want to add discipline, not make workers only disciplined.

There is currently no way to target a specific worker with Zap, except Healing Zaps.

Our meeting with the one naming itself Spudwolf left us deep in thoughts. Us Lungfish of the Dipnoi Republic are no warmongers, and would rather peacefully spend our days in our mud abodes... But it is a fact that many dangers roam the land, and we have been lucky until now.

Could it be that Nagas gift of Pigmy charming is a sign for us to seek contact with other people?

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy notice that Malvol is leaving, and just as they were starting to get accustomed to him! And the rather extravagent gift he left behind only made them even more accustomed to him!

The Jotun Oligarchy considers the new mountain... It appears to just be an ordinary mountain, and the Dire Wolves from before still lurk there. The Giants are underwhelmed by this, and believe that the hills might still be a better place for gathering stone. They would have thought that Amastay would be more interested in such a large building project. Perhaps Amastay felt that it would happen even if he didn't put any effort into it? Or perhaps the mountain was placed there for unrelated reasons that the Jotun Oligarchy did not understand.

If some other enterprising god could figure out a way to benefit from the Jotun Oligarchy's need for stone, they could surely earn quite a bit of FP from it...

If some other enterprising god could figure out a way to benefit from the Jotun Oligarchy's need for stone, they could surely earn quite a bit of FP from it...

You asked for a place to get stone. I gave you a literal mountain of stone.

What do you want? an artifact?

I figured that being the #1 source of FP for you and wanting resources for a project that would directly and reliably increase your FP would be worth at least a 5FP special tile. Especially since replacing a tile with a normal grade tile would only save 2FP in the short term. 21 of your FP came directly from the Jotun Oligarchy. 24 if you count the 3FP from the last turn (Which for the purpose of my argument, shouldn't be counted as that was after the request)

Add in the fact that Amastay never did anything for the Jotun Oligarchy aside from that mountain, and I guess some forest tiles really early in the game, you can see why the Jotun Oligarchy is feeling underwhelmed.

(Also worthy of notice is that you actually made at least two high value artifacts for a different civilization)

Haha, I imagine Giants past experiences with divine blessings made them less impressionable. A Giant sees a Mountain rising instead of a forest. "Meh" says the Giant.

It's a good thing food doesn't waste away and doesn't take up storage, lest we would have to research food preservation technologies! *wink wink*

Even if it did, the harsh cold of my civilization would make it so that the food would be chilled to the point where there's no need to worry about bacteria that wants the delicious food before we consume it.

"Stone of Memorial" (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788542#msg7788542), 3 of 5

A civ has achieved horseback riding, giving them additional range!  When performing an action in a tile more than one tile away from your settled tile, your workers must move through tiles in between.  If you want, you can plot a path to your destination in parentheses.  Example:  Your home tile is A1.  "1 worker forages for food at C2 (A1-B2-C2)".  If you don't plot a path, the GM will plot a path for you that might not be optimal.  Difficult terrain between your start tile and your destination might slow you down and force you to turn back.  Your worker might encounter creatures or workers from other civs in tiles you move through.

I have decided to open up 2 player slots, if anyone wants to join.

Other Game Events:
The Zebras at G7 worship Blarg!  The Swamp god gains 3 FP!
There are glowing red lights coming from Titangate!  They are increasing in intensity as time passes!

Godly actions of note:

Keerim creates a rainforest at I8.
Nagas zaps a Xekarni slightly snake-like warrior with a venomous bite for 3 FP!  Then Nagas zaps a Hidden Monastery worker into a master seagull-style martial artist for 3 FP!
Holo stagnates.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 9 giant primitive, 1 giant stone (houses 16.5 total)
Resources:
13 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
44.5 food
3 bloodberries
11 stone
6 slings
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
8 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
19 food
0 reagents
6 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 9 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
13 Food
6 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)

Farming, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Logistics, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Wooden Structures, 4 of ? (incomplete)

Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
3 workers
1 slightly snake-like worker
2 moderately snake-like workers
1 moderately snake-like spear warrior
1 slightly snake-like spear warrior with venomous bite
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary spear warrior (moderately snake-like)
11 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
5 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 8 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Orassan Empire
Tile: B3
Trait: Eskimo
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
6 cat-like demihuman workers
79 food
33 wood
5 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
4 workers
2 apprentices
2 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 philosopher
16 food
1 book-making material
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
7 workers
1 master seagull-style martial artist
1 master python-style martial artist
1 master cobra-style martial artist
3 food
2 wood
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

Can't workers start project with insufficient resources? I presumed that I can put in labor equal to wood stocks and continue doing so - instead of amassing a great quantity of wood beforehand.

If it is not possible to build this way - could they have researched Hunting Tools instead?

I decided to allow you to spend 2 wood on the Martial Arts school.

It's unlikely that you'll have all your workers zapped into martial arts masters.  The target of a Zap is random.

Savannahs don't yield much wood when foraged.  You have a rainforest now, so wood should be much less of a problem now.

Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)

((The wording here is a little confusing. Does the +1 action range apply solely to mounted workers, or should this be interpreted as +1 range to all workers and an additional +1 if mounted?

The Xekarni

The whispers brought forth through the Slithering One's emissary, fresh venom dripping from her fangs, cause much dispute amongst the tribespeople, and many a moon witnesses the heated arguments that arise in their wake. Who is this Snake God, and what is its place in the Story of the universe? What do the Xekarni mean to it? Are its claims to be trusted? In addition, what is to be done about the purported southern clans?

These dilemmas and others are addressed by the Council in the weeks that follow. Ultimately, the decision to concede to the Slithering One's demands is reached, though the tribe remains wary of the god's intentions at this point. The few unblemished workers remaining are quickly led into the serpent jungle so as to undergo what is now deemed to be transfigurative appointment to the cult of Nagas. Meanwhile, the emissary is sent deep into the southern reaches of the swamp in an attempt to locate the foreign civilisation spoken of in its message.

Okay even though this won't really help me FP-wise, let's mix things up a bit:

Izzith surveys the lands, both made and unmade, and is determined to make his own mark. Furrowing his brow in concentration he summons up all his might and begins.

He begins by expanding the Oceans creating them on B7, A8, A9, and A10.
To shield his new land from the new ocean Izzith creates a ridge of Mountains on C7, B8, B9, and B10.
From the mountains he creates a new river. At C8 and D8 a River runs through new Rainforest before spilling out into a River Delta at E8.
Izzith continues expanding the Rainforest at D9 and E9.
A new Lake is created at C9.
In his most expensive part of the project Izzith creates the Prism Canyon, which is a canyon that contains magical crystals of many elements and colors. It runs from C10, D10, to E10 for 15Fp total (5Fp each tile).
With the last of his power Izzith creates Plains on B11, C11, and D11.
Then Izzith finally rests.

With all tiles besides the canyon tiles taking 1FP each then that should have spent 32FP exactly.

Roughly like this:

You get +1 action range just for having the tech.  Basically, your civ's new awareness of the possibility of mounts alters their thinking, allowing them to venture farther than before, even if the worker does not actually a mount.  Then if they have a mount, it's an additional +1.

You need to research some form of diplomacy in order to change the default stance of hostility towards your neighbors.  Trade then might be possible without research, but research into trade might improve trade.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 7 giant primitive, 2 giant stone (houses 16.5 total)
Resources:
14 workers (1 injured, 1 striking)
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
42 food
3 bloodberries
1 stone
6 slings
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
21 food
0 reagents
3 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)

3 Food
9 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)

Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Goruk, legendary Naga spear warrior
18 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
5 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

46 food
37 wood
6 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Coldlands survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in cold tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in cold tiles.  Cold tiles are typically tiles like Tundra or Taiga, or land tiles where it has recently snowed.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)

2 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 philosopher
16 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

Your 3 masters are, strangely, attacked by polar bears in the desert!  Many bears are slain!  Polar bear corpses yield 10 food!  The master python-style martial artist is injured! The cobra-style master performs particularly heroically, single-handedly slaying many bears!  The master cobra-style martial artist is now legendary, and can be named!

The picture this fight conjured in my head is damn epic! Polar bears fighting with martial artists on the dunes while surrounded by snakes.
I damn appreciate the very first master becoming legendary. Perhaps I shall see to his further cultivation...

Monastery currently "owes" FP to two really helpful gods. Nagas, Keerim - your great help is truly appreciated and I feel underwhelmed I can't really return your investitions as of now (especially Nagas ones)

Izzith gets free FP thanks to Mabel. Oh well

EDIT: forgot to mention Disci, that should get a ton of FP sooner or later from all the training
EDIT2: Do cobra-style master becoming legendary means anything to Nagas that zapped him?

fuck you gm for making me lose 4 days worth of food

fucking with civilizations for no reason other than the fact you can is just being a shitty gm

i'm dropping out of this since I'd rather play a tactical fps game without much experience because all i'm used to fighting is untalented 7 year old roblox players that have no reflexes and not people with skill in fps games than this shit

i came here to enjoy gridhood as a civilization without getting caught up in a divine war and being beat up by asshole neighbors

not getting my ass handed to me for no reason other than fuck you

AND THESE FUCKING UNFAIR EVENTS WEREN'T MENTIONED IN THE MAIN POST!

If anyone else wants to try and continue the wreck that the GM made my civilization, then feel free to.

Oh, and Supernerd, since your civilization is right next to us thankfully without you actively trying to piss us off, would you like the extra workforce, resources, tech, and artifacts from my civilization the GM fucked over?

A pity to see you drop. But, correct me if I'm wrong...

You actually lost nothing important (already getting more food per turn than needed to sustain your civ & lost workers costing you 3 food & 5 labor) and have great perspectives at upgrading everything & becoming much stronger than before? Plus, invasions are quite common and only get worse as game progresses, so defences should have been in place?

you might wana calm down a bit there 0cra, and the random events have happened on every turn that's a multiple of 5.
You trackin that he's rollin for how the events impact civs? odds on what happened is you rolled a 1, and have no defenses nor combat-ready workers, so it was literally a worst-case scenario. even so, you're set up to recover quickly...
And, um, is there any assistance you would like from me? I mean I've been pretty open on the fact that I'm here for you, all you gotta do is ask...

sure. It's generally advisible to ask the gods that care about that aspect of course. For example getting the Cait Sith a larger population actually is in the interests of both Mabel and Izzith, because we gain FP each time a new member of their civ is born because of we made a signifigant earlygame investment into their tile. and Mabel in particular has already created Bountiful Basket artifacts or similar such things for each of the other demihuman civs. So the Cait Sith asking Mabel for one for themselves is a good idea on their part, and granting them their request is a good idea on mine.

Bluntly, Orca is just kind of like that, generally. I don't know what his problem is, but I just sort of learned not to count on him.  :-\
(incidentally, the reason I say this? I'm hoping he'll change his mind out of spite. Spite is a powerful motivator!)

Anyway, Zazmio, I think my FP is wrong? I had 5 last turn (although I never actually checked that for correctness...), spent it all on snakes, then gained a total of 9 that I can see, and have 12 according to the turn. Now, don't get me wrong, I'll be thrilled if you can convince me I do have twelve FP, but for now I think I have nine.

I have to say that I strongly disagree with 0cra_tr0per. The moon beast events have a clear purpose, and that is to hype up whichever gods are having the least amount of fun. This time it was bears. Bears like to eat. Eating is basically a bear's entire thing. Everyone had to deal with bears, not just you. So when the bears stumbled upon the civilization that had a massive stockpile of food they obviously would go to get it. And when the civilization is totally undefended...

And obviously, the next moon that comes after you choose to quit the game will be the year of the Cat! So maybe hang in there for a bit longer.

I fail to see how its such a big deal. You still have plenty of food so you can replace the worker you lost with a more cat-like one. You have plenty of wood so the loss of the primitive houses doesn't matter since you can replace them with wood houses this turn which you would want to do anyway.

I suppose we can chalk it up to taking some time to become familiar with the new mount.  I was trying to think of a way that would be easiest on me book keeping-wise, to be honest.  Do you really think the legendary Naga warrior Goruk would share his fire-breathing mount with some peasant?  ;)  Anyway, allowing easy constant switching of mounts between workers sounds like a headache to me.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 8 giant primitive, 2 giant stone (houses 18 total)
Resources:
14 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
39 food
6 bloodberries
1 stone
6 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
8 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
10 food
0 reagents
3 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
8 Food
9 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)

Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary Naga diplomantic spear warrior (mount: carnivorous fire-breathing horse)
9 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
2 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

1 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined philosopher
6 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

I keep hitting 'modify' instead of 'quote' without realizing it.  Annoying.
Going back did not work.  I'm pretty sure I have it saved at home, though.

What I do is intentionally click modify and then copy and paste the contents of the post into a new post. That way I don't need to remove the quote tags.

I did not see any rules about how equipment stacks with other equipment, but the fact that its possible to use 2 spears at once suggests to me that my action is valid, or at least tolerable.

Jotun Oligarchy

Despite being pessimistic about Amastay's interest in actually helping the Jotun Oligarchy despite the massive massive amounts of FP that the Jotun Oligarchy generated for him, the Jotun Oligarchy still begin progress on figuring out how to create a temple for him. Because, well... Massive massive amounts of FP generation. It was only a matter of time before it became even more blatantly obvious to Amastay that the Jorun Oligarchy embodied construction more than any other civilization in the world!

Izzith spends 10FP turning J3 into an Enchanted Forest. The Enchanted Forest contains many fey creatures and talking animals, the trees are alive and sometimes move when people aren't watching. This can lead to visitors getting lost or tricked by the inhabitants.

Then Izzith spends another 20FP to create Oosfaa the Brilliant at J3. Oosfaa the Brilliant is a powerful Djinn blessed with great knowledge of magic by his creator. As a Djinn his natural instinct to provide boons to the worthy results in him teaching those he finds fitting some of his knowledge. As a being of great knowledge he takes great joy in proving himself more brilliant than others, often leading to mischief as he tricks those visiting his domain.

Also part of the problem was you wrote "F8 through H9 into savannah" which is not exactly clear.  When it's not clear, I might interpret it in a way that wasn't your intention.  You also didn't have enough FP for 26 total tiles.

But anyway, it's all good.  We now have most of the map filled in, and in an aesthetically pleasing way, more or less -- no tundras next to scorching deserts next to swamps, that kind of thing.  Thank you, Mabel and Izzith!

Well, you might have noticed that disciplined workers never play grabass with each other.  It might be one of those things that doesn't have much impact on the game yet, but will in the future.  As for your second question:  it's a mystery.

Nagas has a cluster headache! That isn't good for anybody! The pain and madness seeks a way out, driving Nagas to begin Divine Project: One Eye Screaming in the ruins of tile B3! One Eye Screaming is a powerful and incomprehensible monster of formless writhing shadow that itself spawns smaller monsters twisted from the souls of living things around it and naturally corrupts its surroundings into an eldritch nightmarescape. Nagas invests up to ten FP in One Eye Screaming this turn.

I've been lurking in this thread for a while, but the imminent addition of floating islands has piqued my interest immensely. I might start a civ here next turn if there's still a slot available.

DAPARROT, do your eternal springs have a tangible source? Magical water-generating stones or similar (like how aquifers currently work in Dwarf Fortress) might turn out to be incredibly useful for various projects that come to mind.

We need more civs really. Plus in my opinion being a civ is basically objectively more engaging than being a god. Unless you are personally really attached to the idea of playing a god I think the civ mechanics are more developed. I ended up picking a god because there was a shortage when I joined and I made a civ in the other Gridhood, a decision I've been kinda regretting since.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 8 giant primitive, 2 giant stone (houses 18 total)
Resources:
14 workers
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
56 food
6 bloodberries
9 stone
6 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
8 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
11 food
0 reagents
3 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
8 Food
9 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

0 workers
1 slightly snake-like workers
4 moderately snake-like workers
1 moderately snake-like spear warrior
1 Naga spear warrior
1 Naga spear warrior with venomous bite
1 horse tamer
Goruk, legendary Naga diplomantic spear warrior (mount: carnivorous fire-breathing horse)
15 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
2 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 6 of 7 (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 10 primitive

2 workers
2 demihuman extramagical workers
1 apprentices
1 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
9 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 12 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

What I can join as?

We need more civs really. Plus in my opinion being a civ is basically objectively more engaging than being a god. Unless you are personally really attached to the idea of playing a god I think the civ mechanics are more developed. I ended up picking a god because there was a shortage when I joined and I made a civ in the other Gridhood, a decision I've been kinda regretting since.

I liked being a god in another gridhood that is now dead.  They both can be fun.  Playing as a god can sometimes mean spending several turns in a row unable to do anything, but you are able to impact the world in a big way.

I say be whichever you want to play.

I think that Spudwolf request was inverted in the brackets. It might be less of a GM error and more of a speech impediment thing on Spudwolf's end.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy notice that they only just barely do not have enough stone to build a new house this turn. If they had a special tier tile for gathering stone then they would have surely been able to build a house right now. Instead, it will need to be delayed until the next turn. Work continues as usual. 4 workers go to forage for stone at the mountain to see if it suffers from the same diminishing returns that food collection does.

The map still shows J3 as a swamp rather than an Enchanted Forest.

Also fuck that titan gate, it was erected on the tile after I just put Bakhon there which means nobody ever visits him, caused a horde of scrubs to attack his palace, and now wrecked my forest.

TricMagic, I don't know about you, but reading the titles of your workers seems kinda obnoxious to me. I don't suppose you could reduce them by picking a race name for your demihuman extramagicals ? then the longest would the disciplined <race name> writer apprentice. still quite long, but it'd help condense things a little. besides, that way there'd be a mental picture for what your people are like.

Hidden Monastery

We would be kind of grateful for any means of easily getting more food from less labor

1 worker & 1 worker wearing Fey Hair-Ribbon forage food on I8
Neheb & 3 martial artists train 4 workers in their respective styles in Martial School at I9 (interested in how mountain would affect training)


GM, is it possible to move settlement onto a different tile or have two settlements? After finishing Wooden Structures, I'd like to build further on I9, to benefit from Silent Mountain effect, not on my native J9

DAPARROT, do your eternal springs have a tangible source? Magical water-generating stones or similar (like how aquifers currently work in Dwarf Fortress) might turn out to be incredibly useful for various projects that come to mind.

I was thinking of them as more location based than object based, so they can be exploited but not easily moved

Interesting choice to start on the islands, since you only get 1 tile to act on for a while

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine! (2 slots open!)
Post by: Maximum Spin on June 24, 2018, 01:54:49 pm

I find it interesting that everyone assumes that the people on the island cannot reach the tropical beach in the adjacent tile, even though there's no indication that tile types affect reachability that way.

The floating islands is a special tile, and part of the effects of the tile is them being in the sky, so you should need flight or a similar ability to go to the islands instead of the ocean, or leave them.

Bizarre alternative: when going around, workers would dive into an ocean beneath the sky island - ignoring gravity, as we don't quite have it working? - and when they need to return, they'd use fantasy character power to swim-climb through the island waterfalls

I'm actually perfectly fine with being restricted to an unmoving island for a good long while; expanding my reach to the sea below us and the lands beyond is a welcome challenge and will hopefully come as the product of a long-term plan I've got in mind. If any god would like to help out, I'd much prefer aid with food production or the creation of materials/plants/etc with unusual properties.

Quote from: DAPARROT on June 24, 2018, 01:45:44 pm

I was thinking of them as more location based than object based, so they can be exploited but not easily moved

I was imagining them as being both object-based and location-based in the sense that a single fragment of rock removed from the spring's boundaries would generate only a small but steady trickle of water; the enormous quantity of water production at the spring location would not be possible to replicate without an impractically large amount of the stuff. In this sense, it wouldn't be possible to move whole springs by simply displacing an object.

Would you grant us this blessing? I've got a bunch of ideas for tech based on the concept of portable water creation that I'd love to try out.

Yeah, that sounds cool, it would still be hard to get since the rock is always underwater. Maybe you need to research a way to safely mine it first?

Turn 28 - The Stone Age - Arena Mode

The Bear-Man Colossus Ursaxis and his rabid host of Bear-Men, driven into a frenzy by their destruction of the Verdant Magical Forest and by the whiff of snaky morsels to the south, move southward towards the Xekarni homeland!  A party consisting of the legendary Naga spear warrior Goruk, 2 Naga spear warriors (1 with a venomous bite), and a moderatly snake-like spear warrior move to intercept!  They are joined by Spudwolf!  They are battling at the edge of a swamp and a devastated wasteland!

(https://i.imgur.com/x3OtxOJ.png)

Both sides are fearsome opponents.  A colossus accompanied by a frenzied host of bear-men are, needless to say, kind of a big deal!  But the other side has two legendary warriors, have martial training, and are buffed by the Swamp of Strength!  The GM determines that the Xekarni side is slightly favored!

Wager Payouts:
Colossus: 1.1:1
Xekarni: 0.9:1

You guys know the drill.  The Xekarni side can message me any special tactics they want to try.  Gods can place bets on a side, and can influence the battle in favor of a side by spending 1, 2 or 3 FP.  Bets are done in thread, and influence is done by messaging me.

For those of you who are concerned that arena mode disrupts the game:  I will try to process the turn 12 hours from now, more or less when I do the turn anyway, so it shouldn't really be a disruption.

Arena Mode result:

The Bear-Man Colossus Ursaxus and his rabid host of Bear-Men, driven into a frenzy by their destruction of the Verdant Magical Forest and by the whiff of snaky morsels to the south, moved southward towards the Xekarni homeland!  A party consisting of the legendary Naga spear warrior Goruk, 2 Naga spear warriors (1 with a venomous bite), and a moderatly snake-like spear warrior moved to intercept!  They were joined by Spudwolf!  They battled at the edge of a swamp and a devastated wasteland!

The Xekarni spear warriors held their ground against the horde of bear-men.  Their battle formation and the buff from the Swamp of Strength served them well.  Spudwolf distracted the colossus Ursaxus and Goruk scorched the fringes of the host with fire from his horse while the Xekarni withstood the charge of the disorganized rabid host.  It looked as if the battle was certain to be won; suddenly, the battle began to turn against the Xekarni when the host received the Blessing of Farsky, increasing the host's ferocity and determination!  They almost overwhelmed the Xekarni, and some of them became surrounded by bear-men, taking them out of formation.

It was then that the legendary Naga warrior Goruk gave his life to save the surrounded warriors by leaping from his horse into the fray and single-handedly taking out a score of bear-men, allowing the separated warriors to rejoin formation.  Goruk was overwhelmed by sheer numbers and fell.  The Xekarni were shaken and things were looking grim.

Then the battle turned once again when a miraculous rain made of snakes came down on the rabid host!  The snakes ignored the Xekarni but bit at the host, creating a chaotic mass of snakes and confused bear-men!  It was just the distraction the Xekarni needed to break the host.

Meanwhile, Spudwolf danced with the colossus, pricking it with his spear again and again.  When the host was broken, the remaining Xekarni were able to help with the colossus.  It was the warrior with the venomous bite who delivered the killing blow by driving his her spear though an eye of Ursaxus and into his brain.

In the end, the colossus was dead and the remaining bear-men scattered. The Xekarni were victorious, but Goruk lay dead, and 1 Naga warrior was injured.

Mabel bet 8 on the Xekarni and won 7 FP!
Blarg bet 3 on the Xekarni and won 2 FP!

Spudwolf solemnly helped to build a cairn for Goruk in I4.  Then he took his 6 food and 1 worker and returned to Darkwolf Forest.
The Naga spear warrior with the venomous bite has performed a heroic deed, is now legendary, and can be named!  Nagas gets 2 FP!
Disci was impressed by the Xekarni's discipline!  She gets 3 FP!
Blarg gets 2 FP for a battle that was partly in a swamp.
Farsky and Mabel get 1 FP each.

The carnivorous firebreathing horses at J4 become Firebreathing Carnivorous Wingless Wyverns!  Nagas gets 3 FP!
The violent intelligent seagulls attempt another raid on C4; but this time, they bring primitive bows and arrows!  Keerim gets 3 FP!

Disci orders Tallamon to go to the hidden monastary to teach the monks.  Then, for 5 FP, Disci creates the artifact book Sunzi's Art of War and places it at I5.
Izzith spends 5FP at H5, causing a massive magical tree to rise from the ground destroying the Titangate and turning the tile into a Huge Magical Tree!

2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker (1 injured)
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
69 food
6 bloodberries
22 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
10 food
0 reagents
3 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
8 Food
9 crude tools
2 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

"namepending" legendary Naga spear warrior with venomous bite
1 slightly snake-like horse tamer
6 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
6 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 6 of 7 (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
12 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 16 of ? (incomplete)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

Jotun Oligarchy

Just as the Jotun Oligarchy started to formulate a plan to deal with the Seagulls, it seemed that Mabel stepped in to assist them! The giants reacted to this more strongly than normal because of the many other gods who spent the majority of the FP generated by the Giants on other civilizations.

The Jotun Oligarchy decides not to even make it possible for the Seagulls to attack by working in the eastern part of their territory.

Upon realizing that the research for temples was actually completed already, the Jotun Oligarchy decide to begin work immediately. How much the temple was going to be used would be a subject of extremely intense debate that may require attempting to consult Amastay directly. Despite Amastay's perceived indifference towards the Jotun Oligarchy in spite of their construction projects, the temple would be too great an asset for the giants to simply ignore...

dude... The only reason you generate me fp is because you build things. Everyone builds things. It's not like your going to stop building things if I don't support you. I gave you your mountain as a favor. quit acting like I owe you when you have done nothing to support me that you wouldn't have just done anyways. I don't owe you.

Mostly I'm just confused by your apparent lack of interest in construction. I thought you would have wanted to invest to get even more FP. A higher quality tile for collecting building material would be a percent based increase to what is already the largest source of construction in the world. Not only would it pay for itself in the long term, it would probably pay for itself even in the short term.

Unless another god destroyed it I guess?

The Xekarni

Kezai is the earned name of our Colossus-slayer, who is set to take over as Chieftess of the tribe in Goruk's place.

The Xekarni celebrate their victory over the bear titan's horde, and speak of Goruk's chosen manner of demise with much praise. Their faith in Nagas increases drastically following the miraculous snake rain that was observed to turn the tide of the battle, and it is further augmented as a result of the great respect now commanded by the snake god's emissary.

Our injured spear warrior is healed using 3 reagents.

Kezai and 1 Naga spear warrior each mount a horse.

3 moderately snake-like workers (armed with 3 crude spears) forage for food at J4 using 3 crude tools.

1 moderately snake-like worker and 1 moderately snake-like spear warrior (armed with 2 crude spears) hunt at J4.

1 horse tamer researches Camouflage.

The giants reacted to this more strongly than normal because of the many other gods who spent the majority of the FP generated by the Giants on other civilizations.

How could the giants possibly be aware of how much FP the gods are spending on civilizations on the other side of the world which they haven't ever made contact with?

They just methodically count all the favors gods owe/are owed just as they count many other things.

That said, I did notice a thrend with gods, with some being chaotically helpful, others pragmatic and all others "I do what I want, mortals". Appeasing last ones is kinda pointless

There have been some incidents where gods actively encourage mortals to compete for their affection in exchange for some kind of reward. The 25FP artifact reward for building a temple "one of Amastay's people" is easily the best example of this.

I'm the best at building, so it still seems like a smart investment. Actually, now that I thought about what a 25FP artifact can actually do, I think it would be better in the long term if I expedite this by adding more workers to research.

Meanwhile, we made a tree that made books. Or almost did.
Was looking to make a tree that produced books on it's own in the same way as a Fruit-bearing tree.

We also have a grand construction total of zero due to trying to skip a few steps with spells. Still need Advanced Magic Theory, which looks to be a bronze age tech...

Ah, C-9, bountiful lakes, brilliant rainforests.. Mountains to your east and Mystical gemstones of every color to your south.

Mining would be a good trait, with so much stone, and you could probably make stone houses fairly easily.

That, and eventual magic, maybe Izzith could leave you a tome on stoneworking.

But the tech "Temples" still shows as 6/? when it should at worst be showing 10/?

Fixed.  The research was completed at 10 of 10.
I encourage everyone to be as diligent as Supernerd at checking for errors with their civs/gods.

Quote from: TricMagic

Most likely bronze/iron age for you.  Most likely medieval era for everyone not magical...

Quote from: Sarrak

GM, my question about building in two places/moving settlement is a 'NO'?

It is possible to move your settlement if a traumatic event happens at your settled tile.  I wouldn't recommend it, though.
It might be possible to research some kind of tech that allows you to move to a different tile.
Creating additional settlements is not possible with current technology, and most likely will not happen while we're still in the stone age.

Still can join?

Yes.

You know, this kind of says I'm going to be the first to enter the bronze age..

...What is bronze made of anyway..


Bronze is technically made of various metals..
Creating Ironwood Trees is possible. Doesn't help with actually making iron weapons, but wood with the properties of such could be made.

Advanced Magic would allow earth spells, which means metal and stone, along with earth/wood houses are in the future.

I don't get why people think destroying the Titangate was ME initializing hostility. You built it right on top of my most expensive investment after I had just finished making him knowing it would constantly spew out enemies. As soon as the first horde spawned they immediately attacked Bakhon and then ran over and destroyed a tile of mine. Saying 'Oops sorry it wasn't intentional that the big gate that constantly created hostile mobs attack you' doesn't quite cut it, especially when you specifically built it on the tile Bakhon was on.

1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
47 food
6 bloodberries
0 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

8 workers
2 snake tamers
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
12 food
3 reagents
3 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 1 mud brick for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
5 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 slightly snake-like horse tamer
8 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
13 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 21 of 23 (incomplete)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

A regular worker bathes in the Fountain of Rebirth. He then picks up a spear for the coming night.

2 workers pick up their spears and fish at K-1. Basket is used. They then return for the coming night.

2 demihuman extramagical apprentice and 1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice research this.
1 demihuman extramagical Worker and also helps research this. He picks up a spear afterwards for the coming night.

Others (1 worker, 1 python BMA, 1 disciplined seagull MMA, 1 BMA, 1 woodpecker MA) reseach Wood Buildings (and start on Deep Meditation if they finish - a state that would allow monks to completely ignore all worldly needs - but they can only train themselves while meditating)

(About Deep Meditation - instead of struggling with getting more food, I want to consume less while following self-improvemt strategy. Meditating monks don't produce labor and might get malus to self-defence, though)

If you would be willing to use most of the FP that you would gain from the prayers of the Jotun Oligarchy on improving our civilization, then we would like the artifact to be something that will increase the effectiveness of our prayers at your new temple. On a related note, if you do agree to this then I'm sure you will understand if we refrain from praying until we are able to upgrade your temple into a Giant Temple."

Amastay is a bit surprised at the giants response. Part of the deal was always becoming one of his people, which comes with all the boons and protections he grants to any of these people. Nonetheless, a 25fp artifact is nearing holy grail levels of power, and it didn't feel right to make that all an investment back into himself. He settles on a bit of a compromise.

Amastay plucks a star from the sky and works it with his own hands, beginning his greatest artifact yet. He create a translucent yellow gem of great size. This gem shall be known as the lens of Amastay. Its function is twofold. When activated by praying to Amastay, it allows the user to create a minor zap the way a god would. It also makes the user slightly stronger, smarter, and more resilient, meaning that a lifetime of prayer can lead to very strong individuals.

He then affixes this gem in the center of his temple, so that when the light hits it, it scatters brilliant rays of light over the temple.
(I will levee the actual strength of these effects up to the gm, for what he feels is appropriate for 25 fp. )

I am unsure whether look forward and be god of metals/smiths, or go for something that will actually give FP like crafting or tools, although that may really be too diluted.

Eh. Might as well risk it and hope for some civ cooperation in entering the next age.

 I am Tellus god of metals

For this turn, I rest. Being born is tiring.

Would a tile of boulders be a basic tile, or an advanced tile?

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 7 giant primitive, 3 giant stone (houses 19.5 total)

15 workers (1 with plague!)
2 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
32.5 food
9 bloodberries
19 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)

1 pygmy charmer
5 food
10 reagents
1 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Church!  The Church costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The church must be dedicated to a god.  The Church can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the church is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.  Priests are poor at combat and poor at foraging, harvesting, farming, and ranching.)
Mathematics, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Thermae, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
8 workers (1 with plague)
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
19 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Cait Sith
Tile: K1

Resources:
1 worker (has the plague!)
3 demihuman extramagical workers
2 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
"namepending", legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
4 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)

Amastay is a bit surprised at the giants response. Part of the deal was always becoming one of his people, which comes with all the boons and protections he grants to any of these people. Nonetheless, a 25fp artifact is nearing holy grail levels of power, and it didn't feel right to make that all an investment back into himself. He settles on a bit of a compromise.

Amastay plucks a star from the sky and works it with his own hands, beginning his greatest artifact yet. He create a translucent yellow gem of great size. This gem shall be known as the lens of Amastay. Its function is twofold. When activated by praying to Amastay, it allows the user to create a minor zap the way a god would. It also makes the user slightly stronger, smarter, and more resilient, meaning that a lifetime of prayer can lead to very strong individuals.

He then affixes this gem in the center of his temple, so that when the light hits it, it scatters brilliant rays of light over the temple.
(I will levee the actual strength of these effects up to the gm, for what he feels is appropriate for 25 fp. )

This artifact has two properties that are both very powerful.  One gives a god-like power, the other makes someone progressively stronger the more they use it.  I don't even know how much something like this would cost.  Over a hundred FP, maybe.

I might allow something that gives a "minor" zap for, let's say, 20 FP.  "Minor" as in a temporary one-turn effect, and not a very powerful effect.

Nagas is furious to see python-style martial arts (temporarily) lost to the world! He decides to make the Hidden Monastery prove their worth before returning it to them: For 3 FP, he Zaps one of the Dipnoi with mastery over the Python-style martial arts (which he has expanded to also include indenting and package management), taking as much care as the GM will allow him not to hit the plagued one. Only when the Hidden Monastery successfully meet the peoples of Nagas to share knowledge with them will they be capable of python-style martial arts once again.

He also says to his peoples: "Plague is a serious concern. It may be best, and more humane, for you to simply execute the ill outright, lest the plague spread."

ETA: After waiting some time, Nagas has come no closer to making a decision as to which of the injured workers among his peoples, if any, he should spend his last FP to heal. Ultimately, he decides, by a very thin margin, to Zap the plague out of the plagued Dipnoi worker, since the Dipnoi chose to risk an epidemic, but he can certainly still be convinced otherwise, especially since the Dipnoi also chose at the same time to reject his advice.

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy decide that if one of them is going to suffer from the Plague, then they might as well spread it to the Hostile Seagulls by wandering onto C3 alone. Perhaps they would be smart enough to never go after the Giants again after that.

Work begins immediately on improving the Temple of Amastay. The Elder suggests that Amastay go with the original design intended to maximize FP gain. It wouldn't really be squandering it for himself if he were to use the FP to aid the Jotun Oligarchy. If 5 FP could double the gathering ability of a worker, the same amount of FP could probably double a different kind of work such as prayer. And 25 FP would be five times as good? Or at the absolute least able to make five separate doubling artifacts; which would also be acceptable.

The Jotun Oligarchy realized that the rats could have easily got into their Bloodberry storage! They decide to consume the bloodberries themselves before anything else gets the chance to do it for them.

This last one isn't an error on this turn, but on a previous turn I foraged for stone using 4 workers and did not get a reference about reduced efficiency. I even stated that the reason 4 workers foraged was to test if that would happen.

Ok. Let's scrap the zap power and just have the thing that makes people stronger.

The swamp of strength only costs 10 fp, and it effects an entire tile passively. I just want to effect a single worker when the artifact is activated, and have the effect cumulative.

Well, Tallamon is pretty inefficient in his teachings - he needs an active pupil for them

Also, would you be interested in granting Hidden Monastery long-lasting food-solving boon? As a god of discipline, combined with Neheb feat this turn, Disci is bound to become a top deity of the Monastery, but it is not guaranteed as of yet.

Do I need to use a worker to create an extra worker?

No. You could reread very first post (civ rules) and some of the turns, it is quite enlightening

Alright Cait Sith, I think this achievement deserves a gift. I have two ideas for artifacts to give you: A staff or a circlet(The specifics are a surprise). You can choose either of those artifacts or a second Arcanum of your choice instead.

An earth/metal-gem Arcanum. Let the magic of the earth come to fruition.(In other worlds, spells to manipulate the earth/Earth Magic)
Should also help the new god out.

"I have finished my home and I am no longer homeless, but the other gods are homeless, why even the god of construction is homeless. Why has no one else built a house, do they enjoy sleeping in dirt?"

Blarg adds 10FP to the protection of G7, then he stares at the ducks whilst hiding in a bush.
"These ducks are plotting something I can sense it, and it is EVIL. What kind of sinister plot are you ducks crafting, I will discover it and stop it!"

My People, we should remember the Prophecy. The Dead shall rise, and our land overrun. But we are resilient.
Never shall we fail. Never shall we stumble. Always have we been true to our path.


We are the Blessed of Blarg, God of our Home, Architect of our Soil.

We are the Beloved of Mabel, God of our Selves, Guardian of our Body.

We are the Chosen of Izzith, God of our Race, Deliverer of our Magic.

We are the Disciplined of Disci, God of our Ethic, Seer of our Work.


Shall we falter now? No!
 Shall sickness overrun us, our lives be snuffed out?. No!
We are truly blessed with kind gods. But it is up to us to reward their trust in we, the Cait Sith.

I, Aeorith, declare!~ We shall not let them down!!

*Raoooaoor.._*



Cait Sith

The philosopher is inspired by the speech, he preaches to all who will listen.(Argue action)

The worker cursed with Disease(Plague) enters the Fountain of Rebirth. Be cleansed and reborn.

The Magus Aeroith uses the Arcanum Botanica, twisting one of the Large Luminous Trees.
Wood shifts, a path grows out of the tree's bark circling the trunk. From the branches and leaves, a floor and roof is formed.
Rooms and walls form within it's branches, and the entire structure is covered in a wood flooring, walls and and open rooms on the edges.
It all connects together into a Simple Treehouse, free from rain inside, and complete with it's own light...

2 D-H EM Workers pick up their spears and hunt at J-1.
1 D-H EM Worker forages at K-2 using the Bountiful Basket.

2 D-H EM Apprentices, 1 Disciplined D-H EM Apprentice, and 1 Disciplined D-H EM Writer Apprentice research Stone.

((Looks like you forgot to add the 'literate' modifier to the zapped worker.))

The Xekarni

The tribe is intrigued by the divine gifts bestowed upon them by this strange new god. Research into the holy text begins with Naga's blessing.

1 literate worker researches Sunzi's Art of War at I5.
Kezai and 2 spear warriors (armed with 3 crude spears) hunt at J6.
2 workers and 1 horse tamer (armed with 3 crude spears) hunt at H5.

The worker infected with plague, if miraculously cured of his ailment, researches Diplomacy.
Otherwise, he 'forages' (read: is exiled and sent to die) within Darkwolf forest at J5. Praise Nagas.

1 new worker is created.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 7 giant primitive, 3 giant stone (houses 19.5 total)
Resources:
8 workers (1 with spotted plague)
8 workers (ate bloodberries) (1 with spotted plague)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
37.5 food
3 bloodberries
7 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6

2 snake tamers
1 master python-style martial artist

1 pygmy charmer
12 food
10 reagents
1 blowdarts
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Church!  The Church costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The church must be dedicated to a god.  The Church can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the church is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.  Priests are poor at combat and poor at foraging, harvesting, farming, and ranching.)

Resources:
7 workers
1 trapper
1 half-secretarybird worker
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
12 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Sunzi's Art of War, 1 of 1 (This book was chock full of thoughts on war, and was enlightening.  The buff you get from Battle Formations is changed from "slightly increases" to "gives a small increase to" combat ability.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Cait Sith

Resources:
0 worker
4 demihuman extramagical workers
2 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
4 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)

The Xekarni

The tribe is relieved to see the spots on their diseased brother suddenly fading away, and many give praise to Nagas under the impression that the Slithering One had played a role in this miraculous recovery. Kezai, however, perceives the alien quality of the power emanating from the heavens, and is intrigued by the notion that yet another unknown god could have aided the tribe.

To this foreign entity (Mabel) she asks two simple questions:

"Who are you, and why have you chosen to help us?"
 
The Chieftess then addresses Nagas:

"Father of Snakes, I have been summoned by the demon who lives in the gleaming hut that floats beneath the great sky tree. How should I respond?"

The boons at my disposal are:

Glitterleaf - mangroves that harvest naturally occuring minerals to occasionally produce large , broad leaves coated of gold foil, suitable for inscribing and durable for use in spellbooks

Promised Crucible - a bowl of polished stone holding molten copper in quantity equivalent to a tool head, slowly replenishing (not sure if I can afford this)

Knowledge of metal - a zap or a book describing the ways of smithing or casting

I'll make a decision in a few hours.

Damn, all three are awesome. Glitterleaf at J-1 please. Or the Promised Crucible Artifact. And of course Knowledge of Metal.

Any of those would be great, and with the Crucible, we Cait Sith could make some Copper Spears and other such items.

While the Glitterleaf would be perfect for making better spellbooks later on..


The Promised Crucible would be an artifact, so either 5, 8, or 10 FP. This would be very useful to we Cait Sith.

Tellus wanders in the mangrove forests, and wher eother beings merely see trees, he sees minerals and metals buried in the swamps and dissolved in the water. So plentiful and yet so hard to harvest for mortals. No, it can't be. Metals are made to be used, and therefore they must come in forms that civilizations can harvest and process. So he takes some of the mangrove plants and infuses them with a portions of his power, such that their roots will actively seek, filter and purify metals in the surrounding area. Those plants regularly produce some unusually large leaves made of gold foil, mixed with traces of other minerals and plant matter. Durable and amenable to inscriptions, those leaves are suitable for books and scrolls. He calls those plants "Glitterleaf" and seeds a significant portion of the forest with them.

Tellus creates Glitterleaf grove in J1, advanced tile stacking on top of mangrove forest

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy take note of the fact that Keerim is trying to wipe them out! They decide that the course of action that they need to take is to pray to Amastay using the temple as much as possible, so that he would be strong enough to annihilate anything that would threaten the Jotun Oligarchy. Be it eldritch abominations that were made by Nagas, or evil birds that one day started to attack the Giants with no provocation. Because Nagas designed them that way. Evidently, the Giants were still hung up about that, but you can't really blame them can you?

And thus, Amastay gained no less than 30FP from the Jotun Oligarchy this turn!

Zazmio: I edited my post to heal the Dipnoi plague worker some time ago.

Somehow I missed that.  I changed the turn.  Dipnoi are now plague free.

Since the entirety of the Cait Sith civ have become extramagical demihumans (still of an unspecified type, which makes me sad, but oh well), has that now become a trait of their civ rather than just their tile?

Maybe if they can make it to the end of the stone age homogeneous...

(Promised Crucible - a bowl of polished stone holding molten copper in quantity equivalent to a tool head, slowly replenishing)

Since it seems like a small amount of copper, enough for 1 tool a turn, let's say 5 FP.

Pretty sure we all happen to be cat demihumans.

I mean, we are Cait Sith. So cat fairies. [Granted, we still dream of flight, so it may be a while before our full inheritance appears before us.]

Once we enter the next age, it should become a growth trait.

I'm still not completely sure what the artifact is supposed to do, since Amastay still hasn't made a post describing it and giving a tile location.  There might be some more discussion about its effects to come.

edit:  in the first version, Amastay described something that gives a zap ability and makes the user progressively stronger.  In the second version, he nixed zap but still has progressively stronger, but seemed to have snuck in multiplies prayer FP.  That would cost more than 25 FP for both of those effects.

Ok. Let's scrap the zap power and just have the thing that makes people stronger.

The swamp of strength only costs 10 fp, and it effects an entire tile passively. I just want to effect a single worker when the artifact is activated, and have the effect cumulative.

The rest of the 25 fp will go to multiplying fp gain from prayer.

Is that better?

He asked you this question, and I noticed that you have yet to respond to it. Unless you did it via PM or something.

Also, the original post by helmacon said it was at the location of the temple. I would give my players guff about not including co-ordinates, but the only tile that can possible mean is E3

Edit: His exact words were "The rest of the 25 fp will go to multiplying fp gain from prayer". One could logically conclude that this meant 0 fp went towards that if the first effect cost all 25.

Alright, this is the extent of what I can really say about the artifact. You'll need to talk to helmacon now.

I didn't see the question before I did the turn.  I decided to give him the artifact, since he's been trying for 2 turns, and was just waiting for him to describe it and provide a tile in the same post so I can put a link in for reference.  But then I noticed just now that he snuck in "multiplies FP"...

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on June 29, 2018, 04:57:40 pm

The original thing that I wanted was just FP generation so that Amastay would use the FP to help the Jotun Oligarchy. The strength bonus thing is much less useful in my opinion, and I would probably just spread it out among my workers equally anyway instead of focusing on just one because I wouldn't want to waste the actual utility of the strength by having the strong guy pray all the time (Unless it was a bonus that increased prayer generation each time it is used) or risking the loss of the entire benefit with the death of one guy.

Of course, stuff concerning the artifact is not my decision to make.

Amastay is a bit surprised at the giants response. Part of the deal was always becoming one of his people, which comes with all the boons and protections he grants to any of these people. Nonetheless, a 25fp artifact is nearing holy grail levels of power, and it didn't feel right to make that all an investment back into himself. He settles on a bit of a compromise.

Amastay plucks a star from the sky and works it with his own hands, beginning his greatest artifact yet. He create a translucent yellow gem of great size. This gem shall be known as the lens of Amastay. Its function is twofold. When activated by praying to Amastay, it allows the user to create a minor zap the way a god would. It also makes the user slightly stronger, smarter, and more resilient, meaning that a lifetime of prayer can lead to very strong individual.

He then affixes this gem in the center of his temple, so that when the light hits it, it scatters brilliant rays of light over the temple.
(I will levee the actual strength of these effects up to the gm, for what he feels is appropriate for 25 fp. )

The strength multiplier is the primary effect. It should cost no more than 10 fp. The rest of the FP goes to multiplying fp generated during prayer. The amount that you think it should increase is up to you. If you think it's ridiculously op for some reason, just make the multiplier very low. 1.05 or something. I don't think it should be low at all, but you are the gm so the nature of that effect is up to you.

Most of the effects are based around what I and other people have been able to do with much smaller amounts of fp, so I don't know why this should be unreasonable.


After finalizing the artifact, Amastay  then spends another 10 fp to create an artifact called the scepter of purity. It is a staff that when carried will render all units in the same tile immune to diseases. This is based off the effect of the Armor of purity, but instead of being magical armor as it's second attribute, it has an AOE.

The lens and the scepter are both placed in the temple at E3.

Last of all, Amastay spends the required amount of fp to teach the wingless talking wyverns the raiding tech.

After finalizing the artifact, Amastay  then spends another 10 fp to create an artifact called the scepter of purity. It is a staff that when carried will render all units in the same tile immune to diseases or toxic effects. This is based off the effect of the Armor of purity, but instead of being magical armor as it's second attribute, it has an AOE.

The lens and the scepter are both placed in the temple at E3.

Last of all, Amastay spends the required amount of fp to teach the wingless talking wyverns the raiding tech.

About that Lens:  I am kind of hesitant about the cumulative power every use thing, so I think that part should be more than 10 FP.  Let's say 15 FP just for that part.  Seems like you could make someone invincible, though that would take a while, so maybe it's not as bad as I thought.

The scepter would be 5 FP for the immunity to toxins part, 5 FP for immunity from disease (they are separate things, and the armor of purity gives only immune to toxins), and 5 FP for multiple workers impacted instead of just one, for 15 FP total.

Anyway, thanks for the descriptive post that we can refer to.

Ok, well, 15fp for the buff and however much of a multiplier 10fp will give me on prayers. I really don't think the buff is going to be anywhere near as significant as you think it is.

I'll go ahead and just reduce the scepter down to just diseases then, with the AOE. I'll edit it back into the post.

1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
28.5 food
3 bloodberries
12 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

11 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
5 wood
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Church!  The Church costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The church must be dedicated to a god.  The Church can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the church is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.  Priests are poor at combat and poor at foraging, harvesting, farming, and ranching.)

9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)

Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Sunzi's Art of War, 1 of 1 (This book was chock full of thoughts on war, and was enlightening.  The buff you get from Battle Formations is changed from "slightly increases" to "gives a small increase to" combat ability.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 4 of 6 (incomplete)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)

Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

Looks like the Jotun and Amastay have figured out a way to make way too much FP.  Congrats go to them.  Is the game broken now?  That is a question, isn't it?

I will now take this opportunity to explain a bit what will happen when the age changes from Stone to the next age, which I think I will call the Heroic Age.  Assuming people still want to keep playing by then.

It's going to be sort of a reset.  That is, the gap between the most advanced civs and the newcomers will be lessened somewhat.  Civs won't be made equal, though.  If you have a big tech advantage over everyone else, you will still have a tech advantage at the start of the new age.

All workers become vanilla again.  All the current legendary heroes are of the Stone Age and are just legends in the new age.  I might give the Cait Sith an apprentice and the Monks a martial artist, but mostly everyone will have vanilla workers.  Flavor wise, there is assumed to be a time period gap of around a thousand years between the ages when nothing much happens and the gods go dormant.  A lot of techs will become common knowledge, such as all the agriculture techs.  Basically, the civs will be at the beginning of what was the Bronze age on Earth.

The gods will be reset to 1 FP, I think.  I might introduce god dormancy where they have to be awoken somehow.  I'm thinking that all artifacts will become "lost", which means they will have to be found somehow by heroes searching in tiles, or something like that.

(I've really been going all out on this game to make sure my actions are as good as possible. I have made a few goofs admittedly. I love to focus on improvements that help me make more improvements. More population means more actions like technology and production. Then I use the technology and production to increase population again which in turn improves my production. When I saw the temple tech, and looked back to the gigantic structures tech I just knew it was the beginning of something incredible. Now better prayers means better tiles, artifacts and zaps. Thus, the request for the prayer artifact! It is better in the long run than some generic benefit. Now I want a single worker to be zapped so that they are super good at praying, possibly being a very VERY advanced zap; and I also want the temple's tile to be converted into a holy mountain. Those two things should cost no more than 30FP based on the prices of other things. I hate to admit it, but the GM might be justified in wanting to do a soft reset.)

Jotun Oligarchy

Note: I am going to start referring to giants who ate bloodberries as "BB#" where # is the number of bloodberries they ate. I will also use "LB#" to depict lens buffs. This should keep their names from taking up an entire line.

The Jotun Oligarchy takes note of the fact that Amastay has already taken measures to ensure the Keerim's hostile activities will not be highly detrimental to them. They still have concerns about Naga's monstrosity in the Northwest, but with their new primary god having over 80FP their morale remains high.

As much as they would like to be able to pump 40 FP into Amastay each turn, the giants still need to focus on growing their civilization. As they will want at least one person praying each turn and a population fast approaching 20, the Jotun Oligarchy finds themselves in need of better organizational skills to accommodate a higher amount of actions on each turn.

The giants also take notice of Mabels continued assistance in regards to the One Eye Screaming problem. The Giants wonder if an arrangement could be made so that they would generate more FP passively for Mabel somehow... While Amastay appears to quickly becoming the primary diety for the Jotun Oligarchy, they are not yet monotheistic.

Crazy rumors have been heard about the potential future including the loss of special workers and artifacts, and gods being reset back to 1FP. This is particularly problematic news for the Jotun Oligarchy. It seemed like tile quality improvements would be the best use of a gods FP in the near future...

Wow. Uh... just wow. I didn't expect it to be anywhere near that effective.

...


I spend as much fp as need be to convert the mountain at E3 into the holy mountain of amastay. It will be filled with caverns that mimic all types of architecture and design, with aqueducts diverting natural creeks and rivers so that no area is without fresh water. Strategically places crystals and skylights ensure that the whole interior is lit is refracted sunlight. (5 fp for special tile, plus 3 fp for replacing land. 8fp total?)

He then spends another 27fp (9 multiplies of 3) to zap the Lens buffed giant to a grand priest of Amastay. Soon, as he grows stronger, he will become the unstoppable priest king of the giants.

You missed this action last time.

Last of all, Amastay spends the required amount of fp to teach the wingless talking wyverns the raiding tech

And this turn I will spend another 10? fp to teach the wyverns tool use.

Last of all, I use another 9 fp to zap a worker of The people at H4 into a master farmer, capable of farming much more effectively than his brethren.

All those in this zone get a bonus when researching magic of 0.5, or 2 people for 1 bonus point.

Next Age:
All Previous zones gain +1 cost reduction. Bonus in those zones becomes 0.8 per person researching.
Only applicable if project was invested in previous age. Double primary cost.
Zone is expanded by 3 tiles.
First 2 tiles gain 1-regent cost reduction. Last tiles on edge of Yggdrasil's reach.

Next Age: All Previous zones gain +1 cost reduction. Bonus in those zones becomes 1.0 per person researching. Yggdrasil is fully grown.
Only applicable if project was invested in previous age. Double secondary cost. Mana has spread across the world.

Special-Ancestral History's Protection: Divine Project Yggdrasil can only be brought low past the first age by spending twice the FP currently invested in it across it's life. This can be done over time in a single age. Caretakers can pray to reduce the negative FP on it.

You cannot actually target a specific giant with a zap. Though its early enough for even a regular worker to take full advantage of this. If you have concerns about it being lost at the start of a new era you could see if you could set up a bloodline or include something about the worker no longer aging. It would be expensive, but it would be a shame for it to be lost at the start of a new era when the whole point of the artifact is long term growth.

... It might have been a mistake to actually tell the players about what the next era would entail.

"You speak with little respect towards the gods."


((ooc: i feel that one can be said about the civs at hand and their tech. There is a few of them that are similar in techs and undertakings. Coincidentally they are close to one another and have been interacting. therefore there could be a standard set of techs distributed towards them which would seem plausible. Civs like cait sith and the monastary are unique however as they have chosen an original path. Take cait sith: while most civs have concentrated on worldly things like tools housing food protection, they have concentrated on magic. Reaching the next age would be findamentally different for them. They wouldnt be good at creating tools but they would be able to create plants that serve the same purpose as tools created the conventional way. The monks would maybe come up with martial arts styles that represented that same thing.

I love this game and i feel that the complications of having sifferent skillsets for civs can be represented))

Quote from: Supernerd

I've really been going all out on this game to make sure my actions are as good as possible

Yeah, something you guys might not have realized is that there actually is an optimal way to grow.  Basically, workers are everything, and you want to get your worker numbers up as quickly as you can.  So research improving houses should be a priority, which makes efficient food production important so you can concentrate more on research.  I think it goes something like this:  get max workers, research better housing, research more efficient food production, increase workers to new maximum, research even better housing, etc..

Supernerd had a big advantage because he has experience in Gridhood and realized this.  He also had a big advantage from the fertile tile that was created for him early in the game.  Fertile tiles are probably the best (for a civ) 5 FP a god can spend.  Farsky made one for him early, which helped offset his higher than normal food consumption.  It's interesting that there were only 2 fertile tiles made, and they are both by the giants.  You guys really should have been begging for a fertile tile early on.

The People-Xekarni-Dipnoi cluster were also at a disadvantage because they were hostile towards each other and had to compete for limited good tiles and expend research towards defense.  On top of that, for some reason the gods kept replacing plains around there with shit tiles (although the Dipnoi like swamps).  Also, made a gate that spawned powerful monsters next to them, for some reason.  Although they've received a few beneficial Zaps and a couple of artifacts, they have been hindered by the gods more than they've been helped.

So yeah, there is actually strategy to this game that should be taken into consideration if you don't want to fall way behind.  But fret not -- the new age will bring a reset of sorts that I've already described.  I'm not sure when it will start but it will be sometime after a turn 40 cataclysmic event.

Post by: Nakéen on July 01, 2018, 05:52:19 pm

In my opinion, the Giants biggest advantage was the Gigantic Structures tech! Without researching specialized housing, they were from the start able to reach a populatuon of 15, which is quite massuve from the start.

Gigantic Structures might have been overpowered, yeah.  The doubling of building effects is getting to be problematic.

On the other hand, eating 50% more food is a big disadvantage early in the game.  If they never got fertile tiles, a lot of the extra workers they got from Gigantic Structures would have been dedicated to food production.  If they were in the People's or the Xekarni's situation -- that is, the gods making poor food tiles instead of fertile tiles around them, and also having to research defensive techs -- the Jotun would not be as advanced as they are, I think.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Supernerd on July 01, 2018, 06:08:44 pm

I agree that Gigantic Structures is just absurd. Although I think its what is supposed to offset the 1.5X food costs which I have originally referred to as "Crippling" quite frequently. It falls a bit short of crippling now that I got the essentials figured out.

Edit: I'll also point out that the construction techs I got have been giving a different value for regular sized people and giants. That means other civilizations who research the same construction techs would actually get the same amount of housing for half the cost.

There are a few other bits of advice I can give. You always want to focus on food, and the ideal amount to have seems to be just enough to tide you for a turn if things take a turn for the worst for some reason. Too much food leaves your stockpile vulnerable to rats, bears, and ratbears while too little leaves you vulnerable to starvation.

Edit: Yeah, I definitely needed a quality food tile and I needed it sooner rather than later. I would have offered prayer for it if it came to that, but Farsky was smart enough to notice that the tile would pay for itself.

At least we're fnally at the point that we can just use 3 to gather food, and if all else fails, the Philosopher can just use his Pure Thought to survive. No need to feed someone who doesn't work.

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 6 giant primitive, 4 giant stone (houses 21 total)
Resources:
9 workers
7 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay
30 food
3 bloodberries
2 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic

Housing: 2 primitive, 8 fine mud (houses 12 total)
Resources:
7 workers
2 snake tamers

1 pygmy charmer
9 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
3 wood
10 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Church!  The Church costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The church must be dedicated to a god.  The Church can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the church is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)

1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
28 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 6 (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
1 workers
3 Naga workers
1 literate Naga worker
1 Naga spear warrior
1 Naga spear warrior (mount: carnivorous firebreathing horse)
Kezai, legendary Naga spear warrior with venomous bite (mount:  moderately snake-like carnivorous firebreathing horse)
1 slightly snake-like horse tamer
7 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Sunzi's Art of War, 1 of 1 (This book was chock full of thoughts on war, and was enlightening.  The buff you get from Battle Formations is changed from "slightly increases" to "gives a small increase to" combat ability.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
8 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 8 of 10 (incomplete)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)

1 Disciplined D-H EM Apprentice and 1 Disciplined D-H EM Writer Apprentice researches Spiritualism.
3 D-H EM Apprentices and Aeorith the D-H EM Magus gather Magical Regents at K-2.
Aeorith has the Arcanum Botanica, and uses it to increase the number of Magical Regents they can gather.



GM, keep in mind that Spell Regent Gathering is more effective for Magical Regent Gathering, of which K-2 has plenty. Extra Effective for spells.

Glad that Magical Lake can finally pay off.

Oh my gosh did I really forget to use the lens? Thats it. I'm going to make a checklist for myself now because making a Jotun Oligarchy post is now so complicated it needs an instruction manual. (helmacon, please send me a PM or something if it looks like I ever forgot the lens again)

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy continues their work. Realizing that the monstrosity "One Eye Screaming" needs to be dealt with sooner rather than later, the Jotun Oligarchy finds the manpower to pray to Amastay properly this turn. With the temple now being on a holy mountain tile and a Grand Priest capable of using the Lens of Amastay to its full potential, Amastay would be powerful enough to dispose of even the greatest of monsters.

Consumed 28.5 food

I decided that Spell Regent Gathering is identical to Herbalism, since you'd have to understand which herbs to gather to get reagents, anyway.  And yes, the lake will give a bonus to reagent gathering.

Given that the Dipnoi are Nagasists, I submit that their churches be known as "dens".

Oh, right. Nagas begins work on a second dragon, Divine Project: Tiamat the Ocean Dragon, adding 5 FP to it. The mate of Apzu, Tiamat is fiercer and more aggressive than her counterpart, but more reclusive as well; together, the two can spawn lesser dragons, and Tiamat is very protective of her brood.

It actually looks like you got some bad rolls. A standard forage from my experience seems to yield around 1-3 food or so. It definitely varies from tile to tile though. I recommend experimenting. You have 5 logistics available, so you can forage a tile with a single person to get a better feel on what the tile probably will provide in the long term. Just don't come to a conclusion due to small sample sizes if you get a single 1 roll.

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 6 giant primitive, 4 giant stone (houses 21 total)
Sanitation: 97
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
7 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 1)
27 food
3 bloodberries
2 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 1 primitive, 8 fine mud, 1 mud brick (houses 13 total)
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)
Resources:
9 workers
2 snake tamers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
19 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
3 wood
8 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Thermae, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
6 workers
1 trapper
1 half-secretarybird worker
1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
31 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 8 of 10 (incomplete)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 6 of 8 (incomplete)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

The Xekarni
Tile: I5
Trait: Raider
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
1 workers
3 Naga workers
1 literate Naga worker
1 Naga spear warrior
1 Naga spear warrior (mount: carnivorous firebreathing horse)
Kezai, legendary Naga spear warrior with venomous bite (mount:  moderately snake-like carnivorous firebreathing horse)
1 slightly snake-like horse tamer
7 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 reagents
Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Sunzi's Art of War, 1 of 1 (This book was chock full of thoughts on war, and was enlightening.  The buff you get from Battle Formations is changed from "slightly increases" to "gives a small increase to" combat ability.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Cait Sith

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
7 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
14 reagents
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

The Magus Aeroith uses the Arcanum Botanica, twisting one of the Large Luminous Trees.
Wood shifts, a path grows out of the tree's bark circling the trunk. From the branches and leaves, a floor and roof is formed.
Rooms and walls form within it's branches, and the entire structure is covered in a wood flooring, walls and and open rooms on the edges.
It all connects together into a Simple Treehouse, free from rain inside, and complete with it's own light...

Cost is 4 Regents.(6-2=4)


1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentice uses the Arcanum Mineralis to Bring Forth/Transmute Stone from beneath the Water and Earth.

Yeah, I'm officially dropping out of this game now. I've been regretting choosing to play as a god basically ever since I joined. I originally chose a god because there were more civs than gods and not much room when I joined but at this point I just can't work up the ability to care anymore. Playing has just started to feel like a chore to me for awhile now. Sorry for dropping out so suddenly and everything but it is what it is.

Sorry about the recent missed turns; my workload has increased to the point where I feel that it's no longer possible for me to keep up with daily updates. As much as I love this game, I think I'm going to have to withdraw from it. As an alternative to letting the tribe simply die off right when things are starting to get interesting, would anyone be interested in taking over the running of the Xekarni civilisation?

They can switch if they want.  Though if Oblivion2007 finds being a god tedious, seems like a civ is more work and maybe doubly tedious.

Anyway, I'm sorry to see them both go.  This game isn't for everyone, I know.  No game is, I guess.

And Orca... sorry buddy.  Do you remember how you left this game?  I don't think this game is for you, my friend...

Who the hell is Orca?

Also, I left as a civ because of not even random gm-caused events starting to spike in annoyance, with previous manhunting animal packs only resulting in mostly ignorable compared to the bear attack setbacks, like wounds and small resource loss, but killing several of my civilians and halving my food supply is too much.

You are clearly who he was referring to when he said Orca. You don't deserve to be called by your actual forum name in this particular game thread. I would call you Orca too, but I have too much respect for the majestic sea mammal.

If you really want to play again, I recommend you start by apologizing for your previous inappropriate behavior.

Amastay spends 20 fp to replace B3, A4, B4 and C4 with gentle rolling pine forests. (forests)

He then spends 10 Fp to create a flaming sword of purity, and gives this to a giant at D4.

He tells the giants "Take this sword and seek out the creature that causes this corruption. Cleanse it from this world."

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 6 giant primitive, 4 giant stone (houses 21 total)
Sanitation: 93
Unrest: 0
Resources:
7 workers
10 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 2)
33 food
0 bloodberries
2 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 5 fine mud, 5 mud brick (houses 16.25 total)
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)

1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
16 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
3 wood
0 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Mud Thermae, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 10 primitive

1 half-secretarybird worker
1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
34 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
11 wood
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 slightly snake-like horse tamer
7 food
8 crude spears
4 crude tools

Technologies:
Raiding, 4 of 4 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Weapons, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Poisonous Plants, 8 of 8 (Reagents can now be used to poison weapons!  3 reagents and 1 labor can be spent to poison one weapon.  Poisoned weapons are deadly against most creatures.  The poison lasts for one combat, after which the poisoned weapon reverts to a normal weapon.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Battle Formations, 7 of 7 (You can now construct the Training Field!  The Training Field can convert one worker a turn into a spear warrior, at the cost of their action for the turn.  The Training Field costs no resources and 5 labor to make.  This tech also slightly increases the combat ability of warriors when they fight alongside at least one other warrior.)
Animal Taming, 8 of 8 (Allows taming of nearby animals.  1 worker can tame 1 animal.  A single animal can be tamed from a herd.  The tame animal goes to your settled tile and requires food as upkeep.  Dangerous animals might injure or kill the taming worker.  Animal tamer type workers are much less likely to be injured when taming their type.  Allows research into animal mount techs such as horseback riding.)
Sentry Duty, 5 of 5 (Martial type workers can go on sentry duty.  A tile must be specified.  Usage:  "X warriors sentry at A1 with X weapons".  Each warrior on sentry duty decreases the odds of a raid or other attack at that tile being effective.  Warriors on sentry duty in other tiles will return to defend their home tile if it is attacked.)
Equestrianism, 12 of 12 (Your civ has achieved horseback riding.  Your action range is now +1 tile.  If you tame a horse-like creature, you can add it to a worker to make it a mounted worker, giving the worker an additional +1 range.  Action format:  "1 worker mounts 1 horse."  Mounted workers consume 1 more food.  Mounted martial-type workers get a small bonus to combat in plains-like tiles.)
Equine Fire, 12 of 12 (Your warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts train to use that fire efficiently in battle.  Warriors mounted on fire-breathing mounts receive a combat bonus.  Can set wooden structures ablaze when attacking settlements.)
Djinn Restlessness, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Camouflage, 7 of 7 (Provides workers with a slight combat bonus when fighting in tiles with vegetation.  Slightly increases the odds of successful raids.  Gives a small bonus to hunting.)
Diplomacy, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Sunzi's Art of War, 1 of 1 (This book was chock full of thoughts on war, and was enlightening.  The buff you get from Battle Formations is changed from "slightly increases" to "gives a small increase to" combat ability.)
Notes:
Worker type "Spear Warrior" receives a bonus in combat, especially while using a spear.  However, this worker type is bad at everything else except hunting and researching martial techs.
Entire civ is stronger, more agile, and has more endurance.  (Swamp of Strength effect)

Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

Divine Project: The Swamp of Every Challenge
This swamp is filled with terrible beasts that are quite happy to stay in said swamp area. From gigantic toads to spider headed wolves, you can fight every fear at these lands. In the middle of the swamp is an island which is covered in mazes. It is at the mazes where you can find the wisdoms of discipline. Prolonged stays at the Swamp of Every challenge will lead to a sharp increase in skills and discipline due to the fact that anything in this swamp is out to kill you. The ones that have challenged the mazes and succeeded to read the wisdoms of disciplines off of stone tablets scattered through the maze gain the power to call people surrounding them to reason and more discipline. This is known as Disci's Aura.

There are five mazes and each of the mazes changes its layout on a regular basis due to shifting hedges and small magical earthquakes. The five mazes, though too complex to truely classify, are:
The Labyrinth of Fire, The Hedgemaze of Wood, The Knot of Winds, The Wet Puzzle, The Confusion of Earth

Also, I left as a civ because of not even random gm-caused events starting to spike in annoyance, with previous manhunting animal packs only resulting in mostly ignorable compared to the bear attack setbacks, like wounds and small resource loss, but killing several of my civilians and halving my food supply is too much.

You are clearly who he was referring to when he said Orca. You don't deserve to be called by your actual forum name in this particular game thread. I would call you Orca too, but I have too much respect for the majestic sea mammal.

If you really want to play again, I recommend you start by apologizing for your previous inappropriate behavior.

About that, I was enraged over non-random gm-caused incidents that were a lot more than nuisances.

When I joined as a civ, I thought gameplay-wise it would be pretty smooth sailing for civs because I didn't end up with an incredibly hostile neighbor, instead, my neighbor didn't really interact with my civ, which was better than having a neighbor that wants you removed from the world.

Dipnoi Republic has this. And The Xekarni has 7 food.

They research Diplomacy and become a vassel of the Dipnoi Republic. While having 2 people get the food needed. Would that work?

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy has been instructed to seek out the creature that causes the corruption. However, the Jotun Oligarchy is not able to travel far enough to reach it! In order to fulfill Amastay's instruction, research beings on a means of extended travel. Food is stockpiled so that they can fight without needing to stop to gather and stone is collected so that they can construct anything they may require for this task. Unfortunately, the preparation for war against the Nagas's creation left little time for prayer. Why was Nagas so bent on the destruction of the Jotun Oligarchy? The Giants thought that Nagas would only seek to destroy them if they wiped out the snakes that he made, which they definitely did not do.

An interesting thought occurs to the Jotun Oligarchy. Since their houses can hold twice as many regular sized people as they can giants, then if a multiple of 2 workers somehow ended up being normal sized then they would be better suited to non-physical tasks such as praying and research.

Food stockpile started at 27 food.

Next time you want to troll Oboe Trumper, I recommend making an Orca. Oboe Trumper hates Orcas.

Civilization actions:

Cait Sith
Aeroith attempts to use the Arcanum Botanica to create an Orchard at K-2, but the concept of orchards and domesticated plants is too advanced a concept for the Cait Sith.  (The Arcanum Botanica can't be used to bypass research as that would be overpowered.  The grown houses are an exception to that.  Basically, the concept of orchards has not even occurred to the Cait Sith, while they do already have knowledge of housing.)  Instead, Aeroith continues research on the Book-making Harvest spell.
1 Worker forages at K-1. Basket is used, and the worker gets 4 food.
2 Workers pick up their spears and fish at K-1 and get 6 food.
1 worker is created for 3 food.  Mabel gets 2 FP.

Dipnoi Republic
3 Workers ranch at I6 and get 9 food.
2 Snake Tamers and 1 Python-Style Master forage for Food at H6 with 2 Tame Giant Anacondas and get 7 food.  1 Tame Giant Anaconda feasts on snake eggs and doesn't need to be fed this turn!  Nagas gets 2 FP!

As the party arrives at tile C3, the tile is invaded by twisted creeping vines!  The vines relentlessly assault the party.  At first, the Light Lamp keeps the vines at bay, but the vines persist.  Then, it seems that the vines change their tactics!  They form into dense, man-shaped vine-beings and pound at the light barrier!  Though many vine-men wither and die, the assault slowly drives back the light perimeter!  Eventually, a vine manages to hook around the ankle of a worker!  The worker is dragged from the light into the dark mass of twisted vines and twisted vine men!  The survivors are forced to flee!  As they flee, they hear the wails of anguish from the captured giant as he is corrupted by the vines!!
3 workers (BB1) using 3 slings and 3 crude tools Forage for Stone at E3 and get 10 stone.

Turn 36 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 6 giant primitive, 4 giant stone (houses 21 total)
Sanitation: 87
Unrest: 5
Resources:
6 workers
10 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 3)
34 food
0 bloodberries
12 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 5 fine mud, 5 mud brick (houses 16.25 total)
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)
Resources:
11 workers
2 snake tamers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
7 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
0 wood
15 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 8 of 10 (incomplete)
Mud Thermae, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 10 primitive

Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
38 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
12 wood
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
3 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
10 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 3 of 5 (incomplete)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)

5 food
0 wood
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

Nagas decides it is a time for reconciliation, and puts his dragon-based aspirations on a temporary hold to start two Divine Projects: Serpent's Staff at D4 and I6. The staves mark their respective wielders as a follower of Nagas, who can thus command the loyalty and protection of any of His creations, even the most eldritch ones. He puts 1FP into the staff at I6 and 4 into the staff at D4 for now, since the Jötnar need it more. He also subtly hints to the Jötnar that they could use that artifact of theirs to help get their staff done faster, since nothing says it only applies to the god that made it.

"Personally, I find it more fun to find out what the cost of a project will be after I've already started it, don't you?"

Never mind all of that, since the Jötnar don't seem to want my help and called on Amastay instead. Just put those five FP into finishing Apzu.

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy comes up with a solution to the travel problem, but finds that they would need to construct an additional ranch, research at least one new tech and spend several turns collecting material and constructing tools just to make it work. They find themselves needing to focus on basic living instead.

The Giants realize that the One Eye Screaming only cost 30 FP. The Jotun Oligarchy request that Amastay make a similar, but more powerful entity capable of spreading across tiles which is not hostile to the Jotun Oligarchy in order to fight off the abomination. The giants would not be able to reach it before it spreads three times as far, and this seems to be the only way to stop it. It really is that overpowered for only 30FP. Only a non-evil copy of this entity that costs even more acts can possibly beat it! The Jotun Oligarchy is willing to repay any FP that Amastay puts into such a project twofold through prayer no matter how long it takes them to do so.

Unfortunately, the Jotun Oligarchy is barely even able to get by right now due to the new game mechanics that were imposed on them at the worst possible time, and the need to remove the corruption from their territory. Very little prayer can be generated this turn.

Farsky weeps
The lands are corrupt, and his people, they may no longer worship him, yet they are still his responsibility are threatened. as such he prepares a project at d4, the moonblood flower. A massive stone flower upon a pedastol in the middle of a small grove. It blooms once in a while, when a beam of purest moonlight shines down from the heavens. when it blooms it opens up to reveal a glowing crystal, the moonblood crystal imbued with a light that purifies all it touches. when it blooms, so do dozens of smaller flowers, each with one of several vibrant hues and holding a small glowing pod (think the heart shaped herb from black panther) this pod has magic within it, just waiting to be unleashed. Of course they can also be planted, to enable the growth of these pods in other times. Finally the petals of the smaller flowers have medicinal properties, though what they are varies between the colors of flower. I invest 1 fp, then call on other gods for assistance.

Though Amastay had changed all the Eldritch Landscapes the turn before, the twisted vines and the One Eye Screaming were still there.  The changing of the tiles delayed their expansion for a turn.  They were left unmolested, so they converted the tiles they were in and then expanded.  I generously decided that I would refrain from having each vine expand once, since that kind of exponential expansion would quickly engulf the map.

30 FP is a lot.  For 20 FP, a god could make an extremely powerful creature like an elder dragon or a named demon.  Gods have immense power in this game.  For a mere 5 FP, a god could create an active volcano on someone's settled tile that would wreak quite a lot of havoc.

Keerim creates Mount Thrushmore at G9, it;s like Mount Rushmore, but with birds (https://www.google.com/search?q=thrush+bird&safe=active&client=firefox-b-1-ab&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiltPSP-YvcAhXJy4MKHU5NDlgQ_AUICigB&biw=1536&bih=750&dpr=1.25) instead of presidents. The tile provides protection against bad weather and repels anyone who intends to harm residents of the area. Also add 2 points of protection to the tile.

"Let's see, anything else? Oh, right. Aglejo! The seagulls to the north of you seem to be leaving you alone, I think that means that they like you, so I like you. If you need anything, talk to my secretary, she'll make sure I know."

I assumed that all the vines would be obliterated and I would just have the Eye thing left to deal with since it was the only independent entity present.

Anyways, Amastay spends 50fp to create "The Avatar of Amastay". It is a large winged humanoid figure in a hooded cloak, wreathed in flames and carrying a sword of shining blue metal. It acts as a direct manifestation of Amastay, allowing him to interact directly with the mortal realm. He places it at B5. Then, acting as the Avatar, he moves to B4, burning all corruption in his path with fire and light.

Tellus descends on B6  and sees the Aglejo, remarkable people with an inventive mind but stuck on their floating islands, with little access to resources. So much potential, but they need some help unlocking it.

Tellus therefore creates a new artifact. He takes the finest granite from the depths of Earth and shapes it in a polished bowl, engraved with pictures of tools and people performing amazing tasks with them (no mechanical effect intended). It is shaped in such a way to facilitate pouring liquid. Then he erects a 1 meter high pillar in the Aglejo settlement and places the bowl on top of it, at which point it starts to fill with a molten, dense, hot liquid, in quantity large enough to make a tool.

"Behold, Aglejo: this is copper. It is a metal, born in the depths of Earth. When removed from the bowl it will cool down turning into something more resilient, sharp, durable than you could imagine. Find a way to use it and you will begin the path of unlocking your potential. This so I promise, that this crucible will serve you well.
Don't be afraid of using it: the metal inside will slowly refill and never run out."

Tellus creates the Promised Crucible in B6, an artifact bowl which produces 1 unit of molten copper per turn.


Keerim, The Aglejo have attracted my attention as well. Depending on what they ask, perhaps I could help you in granting them aid. They probably will need food, but I can hardly grant that. If they ask for a way to explore beyond the islands, however, they will need a flying steed of great size, more than bone can sustain. We could, therefore, make a creature of meat and metal, a stymphalian bird, big enough to carry an Aglejo. I could pool whatever strength I have toward that goal.

It acts as a direct manifestation of Amastay, allowing him to interact directly with the mortal realm. He places it at B5. Then, acting as the Avatar, he moves to B4, burning all corruption in his path with fire and light.

The vines were independent creatures and not part of the tile.  As I told Supernerd a while ago when he asked the difference between tiles that have creatures as a part of their description, and tiles with independently made creatures in them:  The difference is when the tile is changed, creatures that are part of the tile go away, but independent creatures might remain.  It depends on what you change the tile into.  If you had changed the tiles to plains of fire instead of normal forests, maybe the vines would have burned away.

The Avatar of Amastay is interesting.  You say it's a direct manifestation of Amastay.  I'm wondering what you expect that to mean in game terms.

Did you know that you don't have to research fishing in order to fish?

Note, should have 4 Ex-Mag-DH workers, not 3 out of 10. Also, you'd think the first normal birth would peak some of the gods interest. It's been a while after all.

We also just finished our Fishing research in one turn, which should be helpful. Expansion time.

"Why do you need a fancy thing like that to mess with the mortals, I've been living with the Zebras for awhile now and haven't needed anything like that."

Blarg helps the Zebras rebuild the houses that were destroyed, then he wonders around G7 with the Zebras.

Aglejo

Life on the floating island is calm and idyllic, and the Aglejo are content to spend their days planting crops and tending to the fields. The harvests remain plentiful, and this simple lifestyle leaves much time to spare for deep thought and scientific exploration. Once in a while, a brave soul ventures to the far edges of the island to gaze at the mysterious world beneath, and questions about the inner workings of the universe start being asked. Despite this, it is decided that thanking the gods for their benevolence should take precedence over formal research at this time.

[Next turn will be devoted to worshipping Keerim. I'll think up a response to the offer for divine aid in the meantime.]

1 expert farmers and 2 workers farm at B6 using 3 crude tools.
7 5 workers pray to Tellus.
2 workers research Engineer's Mindset.

Somehow your worker creation escaped my notice.  I will add a worker and add FP to Mabel.

You need a spear or some kind of fishing tool.  The whistle counts as a fishing tool, allowing one worker to fish.  The worker could fish right in the river at your home tile, no boat needed.
edit:  Actually, the fishy coastline at E7 is a better choice for fishing.  I see that you have 3 workers fishing there, though, and just one fishing tool.  2 of those workers will not be able to fish.

Aglejo, I am overwhelmed by your prayers. However, you shouldn't forget to finish refining your mindset. A proper engineering mindset will be essential to exploit the gifts I provide, more than a couple extra prayers now.
(as in, feel free to send a couple workers to complete engineering mindset, 5 prayers are already more than enough to act next turn)

Yeah, it would. How many turns since the last new worker joined us? I have enough regents to bring my worker count total to 16.

Also, does Stone or Wood count as a crude tool if I use my Arcanum to make it? I mean, it's 1 or two a turn, but the basics are there in crude tools. I will need sickles.

We actually have those mineral plants/trees at Glitterleaf Grove to work with, so it should work to make a Glitterwood Sickle.


Well, at least I should be able to copy Arcanum spells soon.

Keerim, The Aglejo have attracted my attention as well. Depending on what they ask, perhaps I could help you in granting them aid. They probably will need food, but I can hardly grant that. If they ask for a way to explore beyond the islands, however, they will need a flying steed of great size, more than bone can sustain. We could, therefore, make a creature of meat and metal, a stymphalian bird, big enough to carry an Aglejo. I could pool whatever strength I have toward that goal.

"Ah, I was thinking of allowing them to fly by granting them knowledge of how to use the floating stone of the islands for this purpose, as that method would be more suited for their talents."

And then there's this~ Windstones (http://zeronotsukaima.wikia.com/wiki/Windstone)

Hey, why isn't my god, Gilbert, existing?

In Gridhood Bay12 edition, the GM let me play a god after I got my ass handed to me as a civilization.

This game is different from Gridhood Bay12 edition. You were genuinely being crushed in my game by multiple god players without provocation, and the god players showed no sign of stopping, and if you continued to play you would have only barely been able to survive with 100% foraging.

But in this game, you threw a temper tantrum after one bad turn, and quit despite still being pretty well off. Also, you then proceeded to swear at the GM, just to make absolutely sure that the metaphorical bridge was as burned as it possibly could be.

Honestly, I can't even imagine what could possibly be going on in your head that would make you think that the GM would let you play again.

9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
8 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
0 wood
8 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 9 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 8 primitive, 2 wooden (houses 12 total)

1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
22 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
6 wood
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 8 primitive, 2 grown tree (houses 14 total)
Resources:
0 worker
5 demihuman extramagical workers
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
3 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
6 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)

5 food
0 wood
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)

Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

Mabel
Make a field of Nightglow Flowers at D3. These pale flowers have a natural resistance to the Eldritch and each individually emits a faint glow with similar, though lesser, properties to a light lamp. If their petals are collected, powdered, and mixed with reagent then it will form a powder that purges the eldritch. If their petals are collected, powdered, and mixed with water, then it will form a medicine that will have similar, but faster acting, effects to aid the mentally troubled as prolonged exposure to a light lamp would. If kept alive, then each can serve as a very tiny light lamp, and so a large collection or field of them would have the same, though less mobile, effects as the artifacts themselves.

We need some experts f we're going to survive. Our food stores are barely neutral at 3 food. -+

Master Fishermen, Master Farmers, Master Foragers. Our workers definitely need specialization. A Master Farmer would be best, though a Master Forager would be of use right now, rather than two turns later.

"Hay Zebras you guys should start making some weapons, as I have some inside information that says some bad shit is going to go down soon."
He then leaves the Zebras and goes to K1 where he hides in a bush for a while and waits for the Philosopher to have his back turned, and when the Philosopher finally turns away he throws a book at him whilst yelling the word ZAP and then runs away.

Blarg spends some FP to create an artifact book called Farming for Self-Sufficiency with a caption under it that says Independence on a 5-Acre Farm, its old and beat up the cover is yellow and has a picture of all kinds of produce and a window, any one who reads this book will become an expert farmer and it also somewhat helps with farm related researcher, then he throws it onto K1.

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy decides to stop deliberately avoiding actions that would grant Nagas FP. They will resume this behavior the very instant that Nagas makes anything worse for them again in the future.

The Jotun Oligarchy will now permit Amastay to instruct them to provide a larger than normal amount of prayer in a turn where Amastay feels that he needs more FP. The Giants will most likely oblige provided that essential survival needs do not need to take precedence.

Although Amastay is the primary god of the the Jotun Oligarchy, they are not currently attempting to suppress other gods and will tolerate projects in their land intended to bolster other god's strength provided that it is not detrimental to the Giants.

"Ah, I was thinking of allowing them to fly by granting them knowledge of how to use the floating stone of the islands for this purpose, as that method would be more suited for their talents."

[This is actually what I had in mind as a long-term goal; aircraft using floating stone to generate lift.]

Aglejo

The Aglejo people are awed by the manifestations of godly power that appear on the island. To the words of Tellus they listen attentively, and research into a means of exploiting the Crucible begins almost immediately after. Meanwhile, the perpetually glowing liquid within it is found to be useful for birthing fire, and much time is saved that would have otherwise been spent kindling.

A majestic avian creature, no doubt sculpted from the aether in the image of Keerim himself, quickly finds itself to be a centre of attention after waddling into the settlement one evening. It is promptly bestowed the title "Secretary of Keerim", and workers begin to hold regular prayer meetings in its presence.

1 expert farmer and 2 workers farm at B6 using 3 crude tools.
2 workers research Metal Casting.
5 workers gather around the duck at B6 and pray to Keerim.

"Great Creator, King of the Skies, our request to you is a simple one. Our beloved island has only enough space for a single farm, and its fields cannot hope to sustain us should the population grow any larger. We therefore ask you to bless the earth with increased fertility, so that we may continue to thrive as a civilisation."

Note that, with the technologies available to you at game start, you can only perform actions in your starting tile, and in tiles adjacent to your starting tile.

GM, to reiterate my question, we can perform actions at J-2?

If I gift FP to a god, can that FP be used in the same turn?

if so Tellus donates 1 FP to Keerim because good things seem to come in multiples of 5 FP
Use your power wisely to help them grow.

Now, on other matters: Tellus sees the Aglejo gathering around his gift and appreciating it. He sees them trying to
understand and use it, and he likes that. But it is something entirely new, with which they have no experience. They could use some help...

Near the crucible, an heavy book falls down from the sky, its cover made of iron and its pages of glitterleaf foil. On the front, the name: "A practical guide to metals and where to find them, for dummies". While it seems to have a limited number of pages, anyone opening it with the intent of learning more about any kind of metalworking, from smelting to smithing, will always find useful information, aiding the research.

Tellus Creates the artifact "The metal handbook" in B6, granting a bonus to research related to metals, how to get them and how to work them to whoever holds it,

GM, to reiterate my question, we can perform actions at J-2?

If your home tile is one of the following tiles, then you can perform actions at J2: I1, I2, I3, J1, J2, J3, K1, K2, K3
If your home tile is any other tile, you will need research before you can get that far.

Well, that's a good thing then. Need to alternate so I don't starve. Though if I do, the Philosopher's Pure Thought will be the first to go.

I really hope it triggers this turn.

Thanks Tellus, it's nice that we're cooperating to help the Aglejo, rather than competing for their favor.
Keerim gives the floating islands at B6 increased fertility.

The Keerim faction of the Zebras worship Keerim.  The Bird god gets 1 FP!
The Blarg faction of the Zebras worship Blarg!  The Swamp god gets 3 FP!  Then the Blarg Zebras craft some weapons.
The Shrine to Mabel generates 1 FP for Mabel.
The Shrine to Amastay generates 1 FP for Amastay.

Godly actions of note:
Mabel creates the Field of Nightglow Flowers at D3 for 5 FP.
Amastay moves the Avatar of Amastay into B3.  Amastay's Avatar destroys the One Eye Screaming, which dies with an ear-rending shriek that is heard throughout the world!  Then the avatar purges B3 of corruption, leaving a purified wasteland!  All twisted creeping vines everywhere wither and die.
Blarg does not have enough FP to make his proposed artifact book.  (A book that makes everyone who reads it into an expert farmer would cost quite a lot more than 5 FP.  A one-use book that makes someone into a farmer I will allow for 5 FP.)
Tellus gives 1 FP to Keerim.  Tellus does not have enough FP to make his proposed artifact book.  (A permanent book granting a research bonus will cost more than 5 FP.  The Birds of Paradise, for example, give a 0.1 bonus per worker and cost 10 FP.  I will allow a one-use book that gives around 5 tech levels in a tech for 5 FP, though.)
Disci creates the artifact book Seafaring, Fishing and Mermaids. A Guide of the Oceans at E8 for 5 FP.  (A lot of books this turn.  Since it's only 5 FP, and you didn't really describe what it does, I'll assume that it gives around 5 total tech levels in techs related to its topic, then disappears after being read.)
Keerim spends 5 FP to make the floating islands at B6 more fertile.

Turn 38 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 5 giant primitive, 5 giant stone (houses 22.5 total)
Sanitation: 76
Unrest: 5
Resources:
8 workers
10 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 4)
48.5 food
0 bloodberries
8 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
10 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
0 wood
3 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)

Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
25 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
0 wood
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
4 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
5 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)

Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

I think that there is definitely an error this turn. Only three people butchered the snakes this turn, while the Animal Husbandry tech states that using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd. This turn three people butchered and one person ranched. (I wasn't intending to do that, but I'm not making that particular dispute because my post was clearly a mess and I didn't notice that two actions were in a single logistics slot in my post. My intended action was to have the bountiful gatherer collect stone.)

The turn also states that too many people ranched them this turn, but only one person ranched this turn and there have been no problems ranching with 3 people in previous turns.

Edit: Decided not to make a fuss about this one on the same turn that all my problems were solved.

Create a clan of Little People at D4, these tiny highly shy Fey delight in tending, cleaning, and maintaining people's homes in exchange for a small amount of food (befitting their tiny size), and allowing them to make their homes within the walls of the homes they adopt. If harassed or mistreated they tend to respond passive-aggressively, and if it continues then they will leave entirely and make their homes elsewhere. If treated well they can often help in a large number of support functions, like fixing tools, controlling pests, and managing household chores.

Aglejo

Try as they might, the people of Aglejo are unable to conceive a concrete means of manipulating molten copper, in part due to the fact that they lack basic knowledge about relevant structural materials. They decide to focus their energy on simpler topics for the time being. The smaller of the two research groups begins to look into trends in seasonal crop production over the years in an effort to discover a means of enhancing farming efficiency.

1 expert farmer and 2 workers farm at B6 using 3 crude tools.

Going off the way the Animal Husbandry tech description is worded in your civilisation screen, I'd say that the terms "ranch" and "butcher" are synonymous in the context of actions at the ranch.

Hm. I wanted to build an artifact casting mould, but the reminder that it will only be 2 turns until the undead apocalypse is worrying... the Aglejo might need a guardian, they don't have a military.

Keerim, would you be willing to pool our powers to craft a powerful creature to protect our followers from the terror that is coming?

Ingame, only 54 of the gods would know, so I suppose that info would become somewhat widespread.

We've known of it for some time now, so getting caught off-guard isn't going to be a thing for us. That wind spell will come in handy, though I get the feeling we are going to get an Arena Battle, simply because Aeroith plans to fight them on her own mostly.

With this, everyone can take shelter off the ground, other than her.

Yes, but we should probably wait a turn so that we can make a 15FP creature

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy notices what Amastay has done and their praying habits shifted accordingly. The Giants ask Amastay what the ideal amount of prayer per turn would be for him. Less prayer means that the giants can focus more on growth which may be better in the long term.

In other news; after a certain unfortunate clerical error, the Giants decide to finally do something about the Aggressive Dire Wolves. It was only a matter of time before they decided to attack someone at the temple of Amastay...

farsky's action
So I will backpedal a bit, and explain a bit better what it does, so first off. I decided that it shouldn't be able to generate something you can plant, for multiple reasons, secondly, the central flower will just give a bigger version of the pods from the smaller flowers. Basically it is meant to be a thing to grant the jotun an easy way of getting into magic and artifice, along with helping them drive back the corruption.
I also pump 5 FP into the moonblood flower project.

This is kinda cool. Thinking of joining as a god, I'm assuming there is space for me to join?

Yes, you can join.

Cait Sith's farm tech changed from 7 of ? to 7 of 8.

Jotun's stone fixed.  Thank you for your honesty.

"Butcher" and "ranch" are just different words for the same action.  Ranching or butchering more than 3 times in a turn will deplete the herd.  Sorry if that wasn't clear in the wording of the tech.

It's still not quite clear to me.  You say "the central flower gives a bigger version of the pods from the smaller flowers."  What do the smaller flowers and pods do?  Then you say that it "grants an easy way of getting into magic and artifice."  What does that mean?  Are you talking about a bonus to magic research?  Getting into magic is not easy at all.  Look at how hard it is for the Cait Sith, and they are inherently magical.  It would be three times as hard for a civ that is not magical inherently.  So something that makes it easy to get into magic would be very expensive indeed. 

And we need the project explained satisfactorily all in one post, so we have a post to reference.

I thought that Ranching meant collecting eggs and things like that through non violent means. I thought that was the whole point of egg laying snakes.

Post by: dgr11897 on July 09, 2018, 08:50:10 pm

OK, I will retry.
The moonblood flower is actually a small grove filled with small flowers. Once in a while the moon will shine down on them causing them to bloom, when they do they reveal small gemstones. these shine with an inner light to repulse the power of dark forces that would corrupt the wearer and can be chemically altered to create a form which generates hardlight when exposed to light. Hardlight is exactly what it sounds like a form of hardened magic light, with the gems one can make weapons out of this substance (creates crystals which repulse darkness and can be used to make gems that create objects of magical hardened light.). The petals of the flowers also posses healing abilities, acting as a remedy for wounds from eldritch forces.

40.5 food
0 bloodberries
23 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
13 food
13 reagents
2 blowdarts
7 wood
3 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)

Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
33 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
7 wood
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
13 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
7 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)

Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Stone Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for stone.)

Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Tree Cutting, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)

Farms should be complete. It isn't in our tech section

And I kind of expected that from the philosopher. Hopefully, it will help with elemental magic. Since that's the discussion topic.


Aero.. (http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Aero)

The Simplest Wind Spell. Uses wind to crush the target.

It isn't even close to it's final form, but the next step is the Medium complexity spell Aerora, which hits multiple targets.

Kinda similar to Fireball really. Though Fire, Blizzard, and Thunder are other spells I can learn.

After this spell comes elemental magic theory.(Should help with the higher tiers of Element Magic.)


Huh, I can go a turn without food gathering, lucky!~

Disci creates the Spike of Protection at E8. This green coloured masterwork spear is adorned with pictograms. Its wielder feels that this weapon is perfectly balanced and when it is near the undead it emits a bright light that puts fear into the undead.

She then proceeds with zapping a delta dweller to be a master spearwarrior.
She orders Tallamon to train a DeltaDweller

Also would it be possible to teleport people someplace else? Say if I wanted to save certain people from something could I transport them to a safespace?

Blarg uses his wagon to run over any undead that come near the Zebras, if the wagon stops being useful he'll get out and use the nine iron and the riot shield to kill more undeads, he also gives Nagas 2FP.

Nagas finishes The Hat with 5 further FP. He also suggests that, if Amastay still has FP to burn, he has a boon in mind for the Jötnar which would cost a further 3FP.

lel.

What did you have in mind? Nagas doesn't have the best record on this stuff, so I want to do just a little bit of vetting on the idea.

Worker Count on the dawn of the Prophesied Apocalypse.

Spoiler: Notes for the day. (click to show/hide)

6 demihuman extramagical workers
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus

4 Grown Treehouses house 3 each.  have 13 food, and enough Treehouses to house everyone off the ground.
Thankfully enough, that's also enough food to skip the day's gathering. Aeroith is the only one left outside of it, but that's ok, she's the defense.

Time to draw up today's plan.

1 book
4 crude spears
7 reagents
3 stone

1 Worker goes into each Treehouse. They have crude spears on them.
All 6 workers research Metallurgy. They have the Arcanum Mineralis as reference.

1 apprentice(Regular goes into each treehouse, (except for 1 which is filled by the Disciplined Apprentice.)
The Writer Apprentice will also be in the Trrehouse with the disciplined apprentice.

2/3+Philosopher
2/3+worker
2/3+worker
3/3

Treehouse Housing Plan

• 1 Worker(Spear), 1 Apprentice, 1 Philosopher.
• 2 Workers(Spear), 1 Apprentice.
• 2 Workers(Spear), 1 Apprentice.
• 1 Worker(Spear), 1  Disciplined Apprentice, 1 Writer Apprentice.

Plan for Day-

• 3 workers research Metallurgy. They have the Arcanum Mineralis as reference.
• 3 Workers create Crude Sickles.
• 5 Apprentices Research the Simple Spell: Aero
• 1 Philosopher talks philosophy with nature spirits.(Argue Action)

This is going to be a big spell-craft..

"Everyone, be vigilant. The Prophesied Day has come, and we are ready to face it."

"Our Will shall not falter, our Spears and Magic will not Fail Us."

"Gather everything when the Enemy comes, into the Trees. I shall stay here and fight."


Cait Sith: Dawn of the Prophesied Day.

3 workers research Metallurgy. They have the Arcanum Mineralis as reference.
3 Workers create Crude Sickles.
5 Apprentices Research the Simple Spell: Aero
1 Philosopher talks philosophy with nature spirits.(Argue Action)

Aeroith has the Arcanum Botanica.

"For the Lost God of Magic..."

"This is my Plea, my Song to you!"

With Discipline, Go beyond yourself..

Limit Break!

Aeroith uses the Arcanum Botanica.


Drawing on the Mangroves, the Meadows, the Forests.

The Light, Wind and Water.

From those Tales close to home, and those from far away.

All of Her Experience. All must die eventually.


And if this is to be her Grave, her Death.. So be it.

"I'll put my all into protecting my Home!~"

My Body, Soul, My Very Blood.


"I am Magic! Aeroith! Chosen of the Winds!"

^*crk-crack!~_*

The Mangroves are brought to full life. They expand there roots across the waters, beneath them.

Dense Canopies form, seeking the Sun. Thorns, splinters, vines, and flowers sprout along the top. Plants grow, dense as seaweed and Moss beneath the Waters.

All spreading outward before the center of the spell, before stopping.

Paths begin forming of wood and root-branches. The easiest path down to the center of the formation, where the Tree-houses rest.

Given time, flowers may sprout from these Branches, but for now, they are a thing of thorns, blocking any access but forward, and back.

The Earth is packed with roots of grass and flowers, extending deep down into the structure of the dirt.

All of this is working together now, an ecosystem.


The Treehouses are not left unaffected, they also have formed paths connecting them. But these are much simpler affairs of Wood and Ivy.

Any houses on the Ground have been ground up and destroyed in this process, unable to handle the stresses upon them.


{This might have ended up destroying the Arcanum as well, to say nothing of Aeroith needing to fight after this.}
{Most of the Wood is by necessity, wet, with plenty of water in them.}
{Cost is however much 7 regents +2 from ExMagical gives me.}
{Defensive as Hellthorns, no.. Straight lines for Aero and Fireballs to travel down, yes..}
{And The Apprentices above can rain down on the enemies from safety too.}
{Despite all that, it doesn't actually extend to the edge of the tile, just in the vicinity of the TreeHouses and Aeroith.}
{Arena Battle, very likely, given Aeroith and the Cait Sith are literally ready to rain Fire and Aero on the foes.}
{Aeroith is very likely to die after this... Any gods care to Put FP on her?(granted, this is the action for the turn, it can't not be done. She will do it, with all her ability to do so.)}

{Extranote: This is essentially Growth, and a lot of it. Power-hungry, but not True Creation. Farming anything here efficiently is going to be a no-go in the future for at least 5 turns, probably 10 as a low estimate.}

Keerim, it is time to build a mighty beast of protection. Here is my proposal:

Spoiler: Stymphalus, The bronze guardian (click to show/hide)

Stymphalus is a bird of majestic proportions with a wingspan wide as a big building and a robust build. It is not a construct of flesh and bone, but rather it is made entirely out of metal. Its bronze feathers shine in the sun, wings are moved by internal gears and machines powered by divine magic. Its beak and talons are made of strongest steel, strong and piercing. Its feathers are razor sharp and in addition of using them in melee with wing swipes, Stymphalus can shoot them at a distance.

He is tasked by its creator to guard the floating islands of B6 and to protect and serve the Aglejo that inhabit them. It will ward off any danger, internal or external, that can be deterred by physical might, even at a great danger to itself.

Stymphalos can fly and in fact it can carry very large weights. It owns a large metal cage in which he carries anyone who is brave enough to travel this way.

So mean! It's not anything special, and if I tell you there would no longer be any reason for me to even be involved, but, in general terms, I was just going to Zap them with a research boost.

Yeah that look good
Keerim gives Tellus 8 FP. Also, tell the zebras to go south to the nice home I made for them.

Tellus Draws copper and tin, and some of the finest iron from the Earth. Then he shapes them: sharp feathers of bronze, and cogs and wheels, machinery of all kind. Of steel, he makes strong talons and a piercing beak. From his work, a figure emerges of a massive bird, majestic, strong, hardy. And yet, still missing a spark of life. Being a bird, what could animate it better than a soul created by Keerim, the god of birds? Tellus takes this energy of life and breathes it in his creation; soon, it starts to move and awaken.

"Go, Stymphalus, guardian of bronze, mightiest of birds. Go to the floating islands, where the Aglejo live. Make your nest there, protect the islands and their inhabitants from danger and serve them to the best of your ability. This is your task, the will of your creators."

Tellus Creates Stymphalus, the bronze guardian in B6

Turn 40 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 4 giant primitive, 6 giant stone (houses 24 total)
Sanitation: 95
Unrest: 24
Resources:
1 undead worker
9 workers
10 workers (ate bloodberries) (1 injured)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 7)
39.5 food
0 bloodberries
13 stone
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Wood, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic

Trait: Mud
Housing: 5 fine mud, 5 mud brick (houses 16.25 total)
Unrest: 20
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)

2 snake tamers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
17 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
7 wood
3 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Geometry, 2 of ? (incomplete)

Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
31 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
11 wood
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 4 grown tree (houses 12 total)
Unrest: 5
Resources:
0 worker
6 demihuman extramagical workers
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
0 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
7 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)

Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
9 workers
1 expert farmer
18 food
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)

Crude Sickles-used for cutting stalks. Therefore good for foraging, regents, and eventual farming.(Minor as every other crude tool, just specialized to those tasks)
Note, Sickles (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sickle)

My fellow Cait Sith, do not lower your guard, be diligent.


Cait Sith

3 D-H EM workers pick up their spears and fish at K-1.
3 D-H EM workers forage at J-2. 1 Worker is using the Basket.
3 D-H EM apprentices forage for Magical Regents at K-2.

1 Philosopher argues, with discipline.
1 disciplined DH EM apprentice and 1 disciplined D-H EM writer apprentice research Metallurgy.

Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus, uses the Arcanum Botanica to craft a Primitive Wooden House from the Mangroves around her.
{1 person, for herself}

Note from last turn.

Quote

1 Disciplined D-H EM Apprentice and 1 Disciplined D-H EM Writer Apprentice Research Farms and the tech is complete!  Since the tech needed only 1 point to complete, 1 disciplined apprentice helps research the spell Aero instead.

Still needs updating to show it is complete.

I actually don't specifically have Crude Sickles. Crude Spears, yes, but not Crude Sickles. Should I need to Research Sickle Creation?{Will remove from action if so.}

Also, technically, the workers do have a comfy treehouse. It's only Aeroith that's out of housing. Be Disciplined! That problem is sort of fixed now.

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

It is decided that the undead worker should be tasked with explaining what the heck is up with the undead. As there is no urgent crisis at the moment, the Undead worker is given a Light Lamp in the hopes of aiding their mental troubles, and the Scepter of Purity to ensure that none of the other giants catch anything bad from the undead one.

The wretched seagulls are still lurking just outside of the Giant's slinging radius, so the materials to create carts are foraged by the orchard instead of the forest. Perhaps the giants having the ability to move one tile further would finally encourage the seagulls to start lurking one tile further away from the giants.

A new house is created, but a new worker is not immediately created, just in case another not dead worker shows up.

Amastay is reminded that he may request additional prayers from the Jotun Oligarchy whenever he needs to. Though the 99FP that he currently has is probably more than enough to do... Literally anything.

What is Yggdrasil now? (In game that is. I know what it is in myth)

Also, I've been storing up some fp because this was promised to be a cataclysm and I want to be able to respond to anything that happens.

Amastay moves his avatar to C3 and burns away the corruption there.

Amastay also spends 5fp to create an artifact "Crown of the Gods" that does absolutely nothing but mark him as the head of the gods. He places this crown upon his head.

I think the GM did a tricky. He said "When the game changes from the stone age to the next age". What he did not say, is that the next 'Age' would be a higher tech level than the stone age. In this Age of Entropy, most players are still pretty much in the stone age tech-wise. It could be another 40 turns before we get to the Bronze age or whatever.

Alternatively, 20 groups of special animals that construct things. That'll bring in the FP, and if you're really good it will simultaneously help the followers you already have!

Or maybe three more grand priests at a cost of 27FP each for a GUARANTEED +9FP every turn.

... Or maybe just stick with the status quo so that the GM doesn't decide you're going too far.

Actually, you better mix it up a bit. Diminishing returns are a thing in this game.

Turn 41 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 3 giant primitive, 7 giant stone (houses 25.5 total)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 56
Resources:
1 undead worker
1 plague-carrying undead worker
9 workers (2 injured, 3 on strike)
10 workers (ate bloodberries)
1 worker (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff
46.5 food
0 bloodberries
3 stone
1 wood
9 slings
14 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Wood, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Leadership, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Undead, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6
Trait: Mud
Housing: 5 fine mud, 5 mud brick (houses 16.25 total)
Unrest: 20
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)
Resources:
2 undead workers
8 workers (1 striking)
2 priests of Nagas
2 snake tamers
1 master python-style martial artist
1 mud specialist (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=170798.msg7788165#msg7788165)
1 pygmy charmer
1 snake fornicator
13 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
5 wood
13 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Geometry, 2 of ? (incomplete)

1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
24 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
11 wood
4 stone
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 6 of ? (incomplete)

Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
1 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
16 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Trait: Engineering
Housing: 10 primitive
Resources:
9 workers
1 expert farmer
8 food
3 stone
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Stone Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Crop Rotation, 5 of ? (incomplete)
Stonemasonry, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

REMINDER TO SELF: Check and update action instruction document

Jotun Oligarchy

It is decided that because the Light Lamp specifically burns away only nightmares, horrors, and monsters of darkness; the undead workers must be exposed to it regardless of any opinions to the contrary. And because one of the undead workers also carries the plague, permitting him to not be exposed to the Scepter of Purity would be unthinkable. The undead workers will be permitted to stay if they are able to handle being around the sacred artifacts of Mabel and Amastay. If they are not able to do so, then it proves that they are monsters. The Grand Priest of Amastay steps out of the temple to personally see to it that the artifacts are properly used this time. If they continue to refuse being exposed to the Light Lamps and Scepter of Purity, they shall be given the option of being exposed to the Flaming Sword of Purity instead.

Nagas gives 4FP to Blarg as promised, and then opens Divine Project: Don of the Dead at I6! The Don (whose name is Don) is a vampire mafioso with the power to control undead of all types, and can, if inclined, return those undead back to ordinary life as if nothing happened. Unless that last ability would push the cost up to unreasonable (read: above 20) levels, in which case I'll stick to controlling them. The Don is loyal to Nagas. The remaining 5FP go to creating the Don.

Amastay creates two artifacts for 10fp each. It is a large glowing pillar, as tall as a giant. It glows with a soft and warm light, and blobs of bright red color slowly move up and down the pillar. It is quite soothing to watch, and is intended to decrease unrest in those around it. He places one of these pillars in the giants settlement at D4, and another at the settlement of the people at H4. (this is definitely not a large lava lamp. no sir.)

The Avatar of Amastay moves to D2, but is only passing through. He does not burn attack anything here.

Dipnoi Republic

Troubling times! To what measure one is living, and is not? Are the risen ones a boon or an omen of calamity? It would be good to find a way to ease the worries of the people, but how?

2 Priests of Nagas quizzically consider Nagas "boon". Note to self, be careful what you wish for with Nagas!

"...I guess it worked?"
"Yes? Maybe? Do we even know how snakes reproduce?"
"I don't think we do? I hope the blessed one does, else it could end up weird. I mean, we do agree that he was blessed with power, but did he also receive knowledge?"
"Who knows... Still, a Fornicator. I sure hope the Tamers won't feel offended seeing their partners being... well you know. And what will the people think?"
"Well you are the Hat wearer! You tell them!"
"Ugh... got it got it. I will really need a lengthy mud bath after that... Oh and there is still the matter of the Returned. Augh my head..."
"Praise Nagas?"
"Praise Nagas."

The two priests bump-fist.

[2] The 2 Priests, one of them wearing the Hat, bless 2 Undead Workers in an attempt to reassure the people.
[1] 1 Undead Worker trains to become an Undead Priest of Nagas at the Ziggurath of I6. Surely they will serve as a bridge between us?
[3] 3 Workers butcher at I6
[3] 1 Snake Fornicator and 2 Snake Tamers forage for Food at I7. It would be best for the Fornicator to learn to know the Anacondas a bit before attempting something bold.
[1] 1 Undead Worker forage for Food at I5
[8] 1 Mud Specialist, 1 Python-style Master, 1 Pygmy Charmer and 5 Workers upgrade 4 Fine Mud Houses into 4 Mud Brick Houses using 8 Mud Bricks.

The Worker on a strike keeps striking, probably.
4 Food is fed to the Tame Giant Anacondas.

The Blarg faction of the Zebras seems to be obsessed with partying and does nothing else!

It's a primitive house that houses one worker though. And does that mean that 4 regents is the minimum cost?


Besides which, I'm pretty sure I didn't have regents that turn anyway. I used them all last turn. So discipline would have triggered if that was the case.

No, you had a lot of reagents.  Do you really want me to take away all your reagents, just so you can build the house normally and save 2 reagents?

The age is going to end in a few turns anyway, so relax.  It's all good.

edit:  Something else you haven't thought of:  Spellcasters are poor at everything except casting spells and research.  Your spellcaster would have failed trying to build a house manually...

Can I add more fertility to a fertile tile? if yes then:
Keerim does nothing

Tellus I have an idea for an artifact that would allow them to use the infinite water of the islands to make stone, so that they don't need to use gatherers

I mean Age.

This is the Era of Entropy in the Stone Age.  I called it an 'era' to show that it is a calamity that will last more than one turn.  There's no way you could have known that and the confusion I'm seeing is not surprising.  It is basically a dramatic finale to the age.

Keerim makes B6 more fertile

Having multiple levels of fertility would be very powerful.  Let's say that the cost increases the more fertile it gets.  So, a fertile tile would cost 5.  An extra fertile tile would cost 15, or 10 to add to a fertile tile.  A super fertile tile would cost 35, or 20 to add to an extra fertile.

You mean the part where I discipline them or the part where I threaten to beat them with the Nine Iron?

Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Wood, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Leadership, 8 of 10 (incomplete)
Undead, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

1 pygmy charmer
1 snake fornicator
0 food
10 reagents
2 blowdarts
5 wood
5 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)

12 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
8 wood
4 stone
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 5 grown tree, 1 primitive wood (houses 16 total)
Unrest: 55
Resources:
0 worker
1 undead worker
5 demihuman extramagical workers (2 on strike)
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice (1 on strike)
0 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
0 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
12 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

Aeroith Stikes down the Undead with Wind and Fire. And Also The Arcanum Mineralis.{To petrify the evil-doer}(In general, see it and any others like it dead.)
 "The Fountain has served us for generations. How dare you seek to break our traditions?!"

1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice uses the Arcanum Botanica to boost the food available at K-1.


3 demihuman extramagical workers with crude spears fish at K-1.(And why did that affect us, just a horrible roll?)
2 demihuman extramagical apprentices forage at K-1 with the basket.

The Philosopher Leads those on strike to the Light.(Lamps) To further Discipline!
He then leads a round of Prayer to Nature.

Questions to the spirits- "What is happening to the lands. How do we ward off these disasters. And how do I lead my fellow Cait Sith to the path of Discipline?"

((The lamps are anti-eldritch / insanity items. They won't be useful unless the undead attack you, however if they do the light from them apparently is quite harmful to the undead. I wouldn't reccommend using them upon your undead worker unless you want to kill them.))

"Hey, Amastay, That famine demoness needs to go. Right now. I don't think we can afford to spend the kind of time my techniques use, with the mounting unrest amoung the civs adding in this food collection penalty they aren't going to have enough workers available to work for them to feed themselves.

Question to GM: how far can Stymphalos move in one turn?

The Blarg faction of the Zebras are under siege by a horde of undead merfolk!

"Took long enough for some undead to show up, also I need to get rid of that demon thing."
Blarg spends some FP to set E10 on fire, and then he gets into his wagon and runs over the undead merfolk , if the wagon stops being able to kill the undead he'll get out and use the Nine Iron and the Riot Shield to kill more undead merfolk.

Should praying at the temple have had an impact on Unrest? It usually did in the past and did not appear to do so this time.
Also, After the glowing pillar did its thing, unrest was specified to be at 59, but it still shows at 56. So it seems multiple errors regarding unrest may have been made.
Also, I think you forgot to move the Avatar of Amastay. And the merfolk for that matter.

The Anacondas went wild, our food reserves have been depleted and a great danger is coming from the northern lands! These are dire times, but we must not falter.

2 Priests of Nagas muse over the blessing attempt.

"Woah, that was weird. I don't know what to make of that"
"Yeah, definitely didn't feel like they were being blessed. The reverse rather."
"Let's hope it works differently on actual living beings!"

[2] The 2 Priests, one of them wearing the Hat, bless the Python-Style Master and 1 Snake Tamer.
[2] The blessed Snake Tamer and blessed Python-Style Master face the Undead Colossus with 1 Tame Giant Anaconda and 2 Blowdarts.

Praying at some kind of religious building reduces unrest.  Priests reduce unrest more than other workers.  I forgot to reduce unrest by 4 for the Jotun after they had 4 workers pray.  Will fix that.

Prayer not at a temple or ziggurath or whatever does not reduce unrest.

GM, why did jotun's unrest level go up when their sanitation went to 100?

Unrest went up for reasons that have nothing to do with sanitation.  A sanitation level of 100 is the maximum, meaning everything is perfectly sanitary.

What is your opinion on this?

It is simple, the artifact would turn anything that touches one end of it into stone. The type of stone could be controlled by touching the active end to stone of the type you want to produce. It would probably have a size or mass limit for what it could affect at once. (could I get a cost estimate for this GM? with sample limits of 100, 1000, and 10000 kilograms.)

If the famine demon gets closer we should send Stymphalus, but right now it is 4 tiles away.

Turn 43 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 3 giant primitive, 7 giant stone (houses 25.5 total)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 56
Resources:
10 workers (6 with strange plague) (3 on strike)
9 workers (ate bloodberries) (2 with strange plague)
2 workers (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 9)
1 undead worker
23.5 food
0 bloodberries
3 stone
4 wood
9 slings
17 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Wood, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Undead, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I6, are refugees!
Trait: Mud
Housing: 0
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:  Xekarni (Neutral), Pygmies (Friendly)
Resources:
3 workers
1 priest of Nagas
7 food
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Geometry, 2 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 1 primitive, 9 wooden (houses 19 total)
Unrest: 30
Resources:
2 undead workers
12 workers (5 with curious plague)
1 trapper

1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
7 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
2 wood
4 stone
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 5 grown tree, 1 primitive wood (houses 16 total)
Unrest: 60
Resources:
0 worker
1 undead worker
5 demihuman extramagical workers (3 on strike and have the pox)
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice (1 has the pox)
0 disciplined demihuman extramagical apprentices
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher
Aeroith, legendary disciplined demihuman extramagical Magus
1 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
12 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 8 primitive, 2 wooden (houses 12 total)
Unrest: 40
Resources:
1 workers
1 beginner martial artist (has pox)
5 disciplined beginner cobra-style martial artists (4 have pox)
1 disciplined journeyman seagull-style martial artist
1 disciplined master seagull-style martial artist
Neheb, legendary disciplined master cobra-style martial artist
1 disciplined woodpecker-style martial artist
1 undead worker
1 food
8 wood
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Aglejo
Tile: B6
Trait: Engineering
Housing: 10 primitive
Unrest: 30
Resources:
9 workers (4 injured)
1 expert farmer
9 food
7 stone
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Stone Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Stonemasonry, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Djinn Restlessness, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Metal Casting, 4 of ? (incomplete)

Delta dwellers
Tile: E8
Trait: Water
Housing: 10 primitive

5 disciplined workers (3 with pox)
1 disciplined master fisherman
1 disciplined master spearwarrior
7 food
4 crude tool
4 crude spears
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Tree Cutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Crude Spears, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Seafaring, 2 of ? (incomplete)

Dipnoi Remnants

O gods... Tragedy, this is such a tragedy... Our people, our homes, our ziggurath... all gone and turned back to dust.

Nagas child turned on us at the worst moment, and there was nothing we could do but flee. The survivors are broken and desperate, but we must not falter. I, the last Priest, must lead the Dipnoi to safety...

To the Southern Swamps of I7.

------

Aw, such a tragic end for the Republic :(
In the end, Nagas was more of a thorn in the foot it seems, as the Anacondas never really granted a hunting bonus, instead draining food and slowing development.

I initially wanted to have Giant Anacondas as mounts/hunting partners, but had to reconsider it after seeing the tame ones just granted a combat bonus. Increasing their population was definitely not possible seeing how they consumed so much food.

Though the Dipnoi don't know that of course :p

That was what I was hoping for too. I guess I should have just given you small snakes at first, at least until you were in a better position to keep larger ones. Oh well, maybe you can recapture that wild one someday.

Nagas finishes the Don of the Dead project for six FP, then recommends that he quickly establish control of the Undead Demihuman Colossus and take him north to reconvene with the Bear-Man Colossus and purge the world of unbelievers (in Nagas). Then he uses three more FP to Zap a Dipnoi worker with Swamp Druidism to help the Dipnoi reëstablish.

Cat Sith
Event: Spiritualism

Aeroith speaks to them.

"As you can see, our people are in dire straights. I cannot simply leave while they go through this time."

"Would you aid me in speaking to the people first?"


Aeroith says, "Suffer not the Undead, for they bring nought but suffering in their wake."
She then uses the Arcanum Botonica to create Magical Healing Herbs within the Fountain of Rebirth.
"Go and be cured, and resist this sickness upon our people."

She passes on the Arcanum to the Writer, and leaves the settlement with 2 of the apprentices and the Philosopher.. They travel with the Wrights.
{Well, they did say they would take us all, this is for the good of the tribe.}

The Zombie worker is banished from the settlement, to be met with fire if it or any others like it return.{Seriously, kill it with fire already. We have the spell, let us use it!}

3 Workers with pox on strike.

1 Apprentice with the Pox enters the Fountain of Rebirth.

2 workers pick up spears and fish at J-1. 1 of the workers use the basket. The other has the Straw Hat.

The Writer Apprentice follows Aeroith's wishes, striking down any undead with Fireballs.


Note: Hostile to Undead Workers.
In case that wasn't enough of a hint, no more undead workers! Kill them with FIRE!

Yield was reduced by locusts.  Yield loss was mitigated by hat.

Noticed, but effect seem to be working even if Hat remains at main tile; mayhaps if we take it with one party, locusts might be repelled 100%... But general efficiency of gathering here is 130~250% (100~200% with hat) - which is meh compared to some other civs that use multiplying artifacts - and nearing 60~130% without hat. I'm vary of getting hat out of J9 and losing its (milder?) effect on surroundings.

You do get my thanks for it, but unless GM states it'll still affect all tiles, I'll pass actually using it

Post by: andrea on July 17, 2018, 02:26:10 pm

Keerim, I intend to do something at least in regards to wraiths and locusts. Rock gathering seems very secondary, with an impending apocalypse and the increased suffering.
I have a few ideas in this regard, 2 of which I can enact on my own, and one which will require additional power.

1)Imbue Stymphalos with a radiant quality to ward off harmful spirits
2)Make the islands resonate in a calming frequency, to mend the souls of both living and dead.


However, with additional FP I would do Phoenix, the radiant sentinel

Phoenix is a companion bird to Stymphalos, made of shining orichalcum, smaller and with a gentler bird. It has no significant physical weapons, but it can flare, producing an holy light to ward spirits, and enough heat to damage small creatures, like locust swarms.

So the question is, do you feel like joining up again next turn?

Turn 44 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Housing: 3 giant primitive, 7 giant stone (houses 25.5 total)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 41
Resources:
4 workers
6 workers (ate bloodberries)
2 workers (ate bloodberries, lensbuff 1)
1 Greenthumb worker (with pox)
1 Bountiful Gatherer (ate bloodberry)
1 Grand Priest of Amastay (lensbuff 9)
1 undead worker
38 food
0 bloodberries
3 stone
4 wood
9 slings
17 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant-sized primitive houses house 1.5 giant workers, or 3 normal sized workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Orchards, 8 of 8 (You can now construct orchards!  They must be constructed in plains-like terrain or in forests.  They cost no resources to make, but cost 10 labor to make.  This large project can be built over several turns.  Orchards can be harvested using the "harvest" command.  Usage:  "1 worker harvests A1 with 1 crude tool.")
Animal Husbandry, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Stonecrafting, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Tool Crafting, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 12 labor and 12 stone to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 1 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Wood, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Undead, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Greenthumb workers get a bonus to building farms and orchards, and to farming and harvesting.
Bountiful Gatherers get a bonus to foraging.
"Bloodberries" can be eaten with the action "x workers eat x bloodberries."  Size of the worker does not matter.  Those workers will gain the benefits, and will not consume food that turn.

Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Domestication, 8 of 8 (Allows construction of the ranch.  The ranch costs 10 labor and no resources.  A ranch can hold 1 herd.  A herd can be put into the ranch with the command "1 worker lassos the herd of whatever at A1," or something like that.  An actual herd of some kind of tamable animal must exist somewhere within range of your settled tile!  Dangerous animals might cause injury or death.  Once a herd is in your ranch, you can then use action "X workers ranch at tile" or "X workers butcher at tile" to get food.  Using more than 3 workers to butcher will deplete the herd.  This tech also allows research into horseback riding and other advanced techs related to animal domestication.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Primitive houses can be upgraded to Fine Mud houses for 1 labor each.  Fine Mud houses house 1.25 workers each.  Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Primitive Barricades, 6 of 6 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Architecture, 10 of ? (research stalled)
Wood Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Ziggurat!  The Ziggurat costs 12 labor, 12 stone or 12 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurat must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurat can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurat is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Geometry, 2 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 1 primitive, 9 wooden (houses 19 total)
Unrest: 30

1 grandmaster farmer
Ymar, Legendary Champion Warrior (absorbed Demihuman Colossus power)
1 Food
9 crude tools
7 crude spears
10 reagents
2 wood
4 stone
3 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Woodcutting, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing, and a very small bonus when foraging for food.)
Tool Usage, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Domestication, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in plains-like tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in plains-like tiles.)
Primitive Spearmaking, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Primitive Furniture, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 5 of 5 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Djinn Restlessness, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farming, 7 of 7 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Primitive Barricades, 5 of 5 (A primitive barricade can be constructed in any tile, 1 per tile.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood.  This building provides a small bonus to the defenders in combat in the tile.  It also helps to keep out wild animals.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Orchards, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Temples, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Worker type "Champion warrior" receives a good bonus in combat, but is poor at all other activities except hunting and researching martial techs.

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Housing: 5 grown tree, 1 primitive wood (houses 16 total)
Unrest: 50
Resources:
0 worker
2 demihuman extramagical workers (on strike)
1 demihuman extramagical worker (pox resistant)
3 demihuman extramagical apprentice (1 with pox)
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical writer apprentice
1 disciplined demihuman extramagical philosopher (with pox)
1 food
0 book-making material
1 book
4 crude spears
12 reagents
3 stone
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Primitive Spear-Making, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude spears!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many crude spears you are using.  They provide a small bonus to combat and allow hunting or fishing.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 10 of 10 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Stone, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for stone.)
Spell Reagent Gathering, 6 of 6 (Workers are now slightly better at foraging for food.  Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Metallurgy, 7 of ? (incomplete)
Basic Elemental Magic, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Farms, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Woodcutting, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for wood.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Djinn Restlessness, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Trait: Engineering
Housing: 10 primitive
Unrest: 30
Resources:
9 workers (2 with pox)
1 expert farmer
3 food
7 stone
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Farming, 8 of 8 (You can now construct Farms!  Farms cost no resources, but 10 labor, to build.  Farming does not impact the efficiency of foraging taking place in the same tile.  Farms can be farmed with the "farm" or "harvest" command.  Usage:  "3 workers farm at A1 with 3 crude tools".)
Toolmaking, 5 of 5 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)
Stone Gathering, 6 of 6 (Allows foraging for stone.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Stonemasonry, 12 of 12 (You can now build stone houses.  Stone houses cost 5 stone and 5 labor.  Stone houses cannot be built over several turns; all the labor and resources must be spent on the same turn.  Stone houses house 3 regular sized workers, or 1.5 giant-sized workers.  Giant-sized stone houses house 6 regular workers or 3 giant sized workers.  You can now research stone versions of buildings.  Stone buildings are better and more sturdy than more primitive buildings.  This tech allows research into all kinds of other more advanced techs that involve stoneworking.)

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Tool Creation, 6 of 6 (You can now create crude tools for the cost of 1 labor.  Crude tools cost no resources.  Crude tools give a small bonus to foraging, farming, harvesting, and construction.  Usage: "1 worker forages at A1 with 1 crude tool".)

The avatar of Amastay ascends to hover over the center of the world, suveying the full extent of the entropic chaos and destruction below him. If this world is to survive, it must be saved. He thinks for a long time until at last he comes to a decision. This world is worth saving.

He gathers all his energy together and releases a massive blast of purifying energy, burning away all the undead, demons, plague, ghosts, and other nefarious maladies that haunt the world, ending the era of entropy. He uses 100fp to do this.

Redeemed. Really?

Even then, our basic magic is too advanced for any other race. You zapped us, I think 6 times. Enough for us to learn it, but next to useless for others.


Our Fishing and Farming techs though, we would gladly give to you. Or you could just argue with the philosopher all day.


Other races can't get into magic as easily as we can, so those are useless to you.


Should also keep in mind, we keep our secrets close. And 15 FP is not nearly enough to skip magic research entirely.

GM needs to address that.


....Zap the rest of us with discipline then, the whole tribe. Then we give unto you magic. Till then...~


You know Disci, my main issues are 3.

We bled for our Medieval tech. And having someone come in and steal it... You can see my point can't you?

And we are nearly out of Disciplined people, had you added that to the Mangroves back when, you would have 15 FP from our births, but you didn't. And now we're back to the beginning.

The GM has stated how difficult it is to get into magic if you aren't predisposed to it, and a 15FP creature can't change that.

I like the idea of making the phoenix, do you think 10 FP will be enough? either way, I''l give you enough to get both effects.
Also maybe make Phoenix platinum or silver instead, those metals would make more sense given the powers he has

I hope it will be enough.

Seeing how impotent Stymphalos is against the threats of this age, Tellus once again forges a metal creature. An elegant bird crafted of the purest silver, significantly bigger than a mortal but smaller and leaner than stymphalos. It lacks the sheer might and natural weapons of its brother and is made of a softer metal, but Tellus then imbues it with a different gift: a divine flame, bathing the bird in ethereal fire and holy light. Finally, a soul provided by Keerim to give it life.
"You are the complement of Stymphalos, and share his mission. Together you will travel: Stymphalos will fight the material and you the immaterial."

Phoenix is a big (yet not as enormous as stymphalus) bird with a lean and elegant build. It is made of pure silver and has little in the way of physical weapons. However, it is imbued with divine flame, able to radiate an holy light that deters harmful spirits, ghosts, wights and the like, and can engulf itself in fire to burn through swarms

Turn 45 - End of the Stone Age - End of the Era of Entropy

From the heavens, Amastay surveyed the Gridhood.  A third undead horror, its origin unknown, had appeared, and its unearthly scream was bringing mad havoc.  The second had defiled his mountain and temple, and his favorite mortals seemed resigned to the coming horror.  The first, though wounded, was still spewing out locusts on the land.  Things were going horribly wrong, and Amastay did not understand why, or what its source was.

An idea occurred to him.  He had a great reserve of power built up over the age.  He wondered what would happen to the monstrosities if he would unleash it all at once in a great cleansing wave of purification.  The result would be unpredictable, and might destroy the mortals, but it was the only chance to save the Gridhood.

Amastay poured all his power and his rage into a burst of purification in the center of the Gridhood.  It spread from the center in an ever-widening perfect circle, for it was Amastay's nature to construct perfect things.  The wave first reached the Delta Dwellers, who lost half their number, though not all.  Then it reached The People and the Jotun Oligarchy, and they too were purified but lost some of their numbers.  Then Amastay watched with satisfaction as the first two horrors attempted to flee from the expanding wave but were engulfed and eradicated.  The remaining civilizations were eventually engulfed, and finally the last undead horror in the corner of the world was destroyed.  The world had been purified, and was now, in Amastay's eyes, much closer to perfect.

But the wave kept expanding upwards, towards the heavens.  Amastay was not expecting this.  He noticed that the wave seemed to be expanding at an ever faster rate; or perhaps time was slowing for him.  Then the wave impacted the heavens, the abode of the gods.  Amastay and the other gods found it became increasingly difficult to move.

"What have you done?" cried Nagas.

"I know not," said Amastay.

"Is this death?" asked Keerim, with more curiosity than fear.

"Perhaps it is sleep," said Tellus.

"How will the mortals survive without us?" wondered Mabel.

"Who will watch over the Zebras?" said Blarg angrily.

"This isn't fair!  I just got here!" exclaimed Salot.

Amastay tried to respond, but found he could no longer speak.  He fell into a deep slumber, as did the other gods.

On the surface of the Gridhood, the survivors emerged from the ruins, dazed, and wondered at what had just happened.  They didn't have much time to wonder, though, for there was work to be done, picking up the pieces.

So what happens now?

First, we determine if we want to continue.  Maybe people were getting bored; I don't know.  Sometimes I found it to be a chore, but mostly I enjoyed doing it, and am willing to continue.

If we continue, I am going to take some time to work on new rules.  The setting is going to be around 1000 years from the end of the stone age.  It will be the beginning of the bronze age.  All civs will have many techs such as agriculture and early bronzeworking in common.  The gods will be slumbering and will have to be awoken somehow.  I think I am going to introduce heroes who explore the tiles looking for artifacts and other treasure.

I'm not sure how I'll handle that yet.  Maybe they will spend at most a few turns slumbering.  I'm open to suggestions.

Maybe it can be something like, the first prayer a god receives wakes up the god.  Maybe the civ that wakes up a god gets some kind of boon.

The problem with this is that heroes operate on a smaller scale than civilizations or gods, with very different kinds of problems, goals, and general interactions. They'd need a different, more zoomed in, map to play on. and would need several turns for every civ turn that passes.

Post by: Supernerd on July 18, 2018, 11:12:47 pm

If you are going to shake up the game mechanics, I recommend putting a lot of thought into them. One thing in particular is that god players might not appreciate being locked out of the game, and simply praying to one to bring them back would defeat the purpose of locking them in the first place.

I might instead recommend giving gods a new set of more subtle powers. Maybe make it so that the basic landscape cannot be changed anymore, but the climate can be. Perhaps a power that will create a sub-faction that workers can join or leave of their own free will that affects their stats and behaviors or something?

Post by: Sarrak on July 18, 2018, 11:42:51 pm

Heroes could be a god-player thing - a way to interact with the world while they slumber and give boons to civs they like. In return, make gods far less powerful. Creating artifacts should take more FP, while zaps & random mutations might still be low-cost. Supernerd suggested good idea of weather. Also, gods could be showing mortals what there already is on the nearby tile (a ray from heavens fell near your settlement, with cache of spears lying where it landed. Praise ...!)

I kinda liked how Neheb survived everything through discipline. I'm pretty sure this disciplined tenacity of cobra style is going to survive whatever the world throws at the,

The thing is, I'm not expecting the gods to be slumbering for all that long.  The problem with making the gods less powerful is I know from experience that it can be boring for a god to spend ten turns in a row unable to do anything because of lack of FP.  I know that still happened sometimes in this game, but I tried to make it less likely.

Interesting idea.  Maybe Amastay's purification blast had the effect of locking the tiles in place.  I'll give it some thought.

Maybe we could make it so anyone can play a hero in addition to playing their god or their civ, and if someone wanted to join and play just a hero, they could.  I'm not sure how heroes would arise, though.  Randomly?  Like legendary workers did in the stone age?  If heroes are rare, would that mean that people will get mad over who gets to control them?  Maybe I should just scrap this idea of heroes altogether.

You can tune down 'hero' vibe a bit. And make them just travelers, adventurers and seekers of opportunity, not some legendary demi-god figures (though they could become them in time).

I meant to limit only godly actions that truly change the world... Although that might be a whole point why people play gods. Welp.

I wish to continue as well, the Cait Sith have not yet achieved Flight, and I want to see their growth continue.


As for Gods, pick a tile and create an objective to complete. The tribe that completes it gains a boon from that god, to be decided by them.

To be fair, this is mostly because I want to awaken a few myself.

Amastay's could be re-sanctifying the Temple and Mountain.
And Disci has the Swamp of many challenges. While Blarg has the Zebras hold the clue to his return in the form of his house.
There is also that pillar... Plenty of ways to return them.

Nagas meanwhile has to rely on the Remnants or the old Orca settlement tile. And the Remnants need to choose a new tile to settle on.

---

And that s not the best, maybe just start with your main gods. We have Mabel, Blarg, Disci, Tellius, Izzith.{Izzith is gone but that's how it is.}

If any god is going to be the first to awaken, it's probably going to be the new one though.

Post by: Zazmio on July 20, 2018, 11:35:59 pm

I think these are going to be the changes for the new age.  Feel free to ask questions.  I'll probably start the new age tomorrow.

Spoiler: The Bronze Age (click to show/hide)

Welcome to the Bronze Age!  The following are rules clarifications and changes specific to this age.

The setting is approximately 1000 years after the end of the Stone Age.  The gods have been dormant all these years.  The events of the stone age have become myths and legends.  Some doubt that they happened at all, and a few doubt the existence of even the gods.

All of the civilizations' workers from the stone age are gone.  The legendary workers of the stone age are of that age and are long gone.  Civilizations' techs have been changed some.  Many of the techs have been merged, changed into something similar, or are "stone age" versions of that tech.  "Stone age" techs are relics from the Stone Age; better, more modern versions of the tech are waiting to be researched.  Some buildings from the Stone Age remain, but are labeled "of the Stone Age."  Stone Age buildings are inferior.  It is recommended that you research better versions and upgrade them.

Artifacts from the Stone Age are now "lost".  They are still in the world somewhere, but must be found again.  Most have the same properties they had in the Stone Age, but it's possible that some might have been changed by the event that ended the Stone Age.

The map is now different.  Tiles now have an exploration level.  The exploration level runs from 0 to 100% and is noted in the lower left corner of the tile.  A tile's exploration level is raised by workers exploring the tile.  A civ's settled tile is always at least 50% explored.  The exploration level might be reduced after minor changes to the tile, and the exploration level is reset to 0% if a tile is completely changed.  The GM will use his judgement to determine if a change to a tile is a minor change or a complete change; a change of the terrain type, for example plains to mountains, will generally be considered a complete change.

Tiles must be explored to at least 50% in order to see what the tile does.  The properties and effects of a tile will still be there; it's just that the players won't be sure what effects there are until the tile is at least 50% explored.  Note that Amastay's Wrath at the end of the Stone Age might have changed what some of the tiles do, so looking at an old turn report will not necessarily tell you what that tile does.

Exploring tiles might also result in some kind of event happening to the exploring worker.  Being attacked by bandits is a possibility.  Another possibility is discovering a location in the tile.  Locations can be searched by a worker; they might contain lost artifacts, which might be guarded.  Searching at locations is often dangerous.

Locations
Locations are now a thing.  A location is something like a palace, a cave, or a grotto.  They can be revealed through exploration, and can also be created by the gods.  The rules for creating them are similar to those for the creation of artifacts; 5 FP minimum, FP cost increases with power.  The main difference between locations and artifacts is that locations can't usually move, and can contain creatures and artifacts.  Of course, when a god creates a location, they must specify what, if anything, it contains, and must pay FP for those things.  Like artifacts and creatures, locations are separate from the tile they are in, and might remain in the tile if the tile is changed.

Heroes
I couldn't really think of a good way to do heroes, so I decided to nix that idea.  There might be more legendary workers, though.

God Dormancy
I couldn't think of a way to do it that was interesting without adding needless complexity and making the gods wait for several turns.  At the start of the age, all gods are considered to be just waking up after 1000 years of sleep.  Feel free to roleplay that if you want.  All gods start the new age with 1 FP.

Modified Tile Costs
Changing the tiles is still allowed but it now costs more.  Changing to a basic land type now costs 5 FP.  Special tiles that used to cost 5 FP now cost 10 FP.  Special tiles now cost 5 more than they would have in the Stone Age.

Modifying the Climate
For 5 FP, you can change the climate of a tile without reducing the exploration percentage.  Plains can be changed to desert or swamp or tundra.  Forest can be changed to Jungle or Taiga.  Mountains can be changed to Snow-capped mountains or... arid mountains?  Any special properties of the tile stay the same when you do this.  Flat land must stay flat, hilly must stay hilly, mountainous must stay mountainous.

Weather
For 2 FP, you can make it rain on a tile for 1 turn.  This should increase the farming or harvesting yield in that tile for that turn.  It most likely won't impact hunting, fishing, or ranching.  Alternatively, for 2 FP you can make a drought on a tile for one turn, which will reduce farming and harvesting yield.

For 12 FP, you can make it rain or drought in a 3X3 square.  That's a savings of 6 FP!  All tiles must have the same weather when doing this.

Alternate weather can be done for 2X the cost or more, depending on the power level of the weather.

Hasty things
From now on, all tiles, artifacts, creatures, and locations appear at the end of the turn when created.  They appear after everything else has been done, such as food consumption.  Thus, none of these things can take any action such as moving or attacking on the turn they are created.  For tiles, the land is considered to be the previous land type until the end of the turn.  For example, civ A forages for food at a plains, and a god changes that plains to a desert on the same turn.  Civ A will still get food there as if it was a plains for that turn.  Another example:  Civ B is attacked one turn by a giant.  God C creates an artifact sword for Civ B on the same turn.  Civ B can't use that artifact when fighting the giant that turn because it doesn't appear until the end of the turn.

However, there is a way around this.  If you really, really want something to take effect at the beginning of the turn, you can specify that the tile, creature, artifact, or location is hasty.  This adds an additional 10 FP to the cost of the object.

Are the creatures still around? you didn't mention them in your post. I know it's been 1000 years, but a lot of them could live that long

Stymphalos (And Phoenix if I managed to create it before apocalypse) don't really age, but their mechanisms will probably fail way before 1000 years without some divine maintenance.
However, since they are made of good strong metal rather than flesh, will they still be visible as statues/relics?

They can be repaired. That's going to take some priests and holy magic though.

That and mechanics. A lot of techs needed,

That's probably what happened to my wagon, unless the world changing age killed it. Hopefully its not broken or if it is I can fix it.

Hopefully the titangate survived. Though without me there to act as its power source/source of the titans, it likely hasn't been spitting out too many titans, maybe one or two either emerged and/or survived since the event, hopefully though I should be able to power it back up, and get some new colossi wandering around killing things and being a challenge for civs to overcome, or get crushed by, either one works for me...
Actually since both the end of the stone age, and the dawn of this new age were both really huge events, the titangate may have produced a really strong colossus, or two.
Did either of those give Me us a colossus @Zazimo?

Turn 46 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
15 food
3 slings
3 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
7 workers
3 pygmy workers
10 food
3 blowdarts
3 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
10 food
3 crude tools
3 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
1 apprentice
10 food
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)
Notes:

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 7 wooden (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
1 master cobra-style martial artist
10 food
3 quarterstaffs
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Aglejo
Tile: B6
Trait: Engineering
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
10 food
3 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  1 worker can expend 1 wood and 1 clay to create 5 bricks at a brick kiln.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)

Delta dwellers
Tile: E8
Trait: Water
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
10 food
3 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Some players have expressed the desire to change to a different god, or to go from playing god to playing civ.  Now is the time to do so if you want to do that!

Hopefully the titangate survived. Though without me there to act as its power source/source of the titans, it likely hasn't been spitting out too many titans, maybe one or two either emerged and/or survived since the event, hopefully though I should be able to power it back up, and get some new colossi wandering around killing things and being a challenge for civs to overcome, or get crushed by, either one works for me...
Actually since both the end of the stone age, and the dawn of this new age were both really huge events, the titangate may have produced a really strong colossus, or two.
Did either of those give Me us a colossus @Zazimo?

You'll just have to see...

*yaawwn* well what did I miss, oh wait, NOOOOOOO, MY COLOSSI!!! WHY? no not the titangate as well! what the actual heck happened, I went to take a nap for a few months and bam, next thing I know I'm 1000 years into the future. Wait, amastay.... you did this. My rage is directed mostly at you, I had 28 FP by gosh, 28!! enough to make all kinds of new stuff, now I am back to square one. Well, time to make a new thing to act as our eyes in this new world.
I start a project, the godeye probe, a small rock thing with the power to replicate itself, and reveal the status of tiles it is on it will spawn on D4. I put my measely one FP into it. I then weep for the fallen hero Ymar, swearing to make him a monument in his honor.  hey jotun, if you pray to me. I'll make you an artifact, a new tile for your tile, whatever you want, just has to be non-food related. Also you should look for that lost grove of moonblood flowers, they should still be around, somewhere, I hope. and if they weren't completely destroyed by the thousand year time period without much magic, then they are probably still just as powerful as they used to be (not that you EVER foraged them, or even looked for them I don't think.) They are probably still on your tile (d4), which is now only 50% explored.
Keerim, want to form an alliance of sorts, I can make Titanic birds if you want, in fact, I kinda want to make a bird that is basically a giant wandering flying Island at some point.

By the way, it isn't necessary to research exploration, though if you do, you'll get a bonus when doing it.  The command is "x workers explore/scout A1".
You might get a very small amount of exploration in an unexplored tile when doing other actions such as foraging there.

All gods are too weak to interact with the world with the exception of sending visions or dreams to civs and intelligent creatures.  Physically interacting with the world usually requires creation of some kind of avatar or spending FP in some way.

All techs that weren't completed by the end of the stone age were forgotten.  I've removed techs that are in the common knowledge pool from your civs' tech list.  Stone age agricultural constructions all cost 10 labor and no resources; I've added that to the tech.  You can build 1 of each type of agricultural building in each tile; thus, you could have a farm, an orchard, and a ranch all in the same tile.  Note that all civs have figured out smelting of tin and copper and how to make bronze, but it hasn't yet occurred to them to do something useful, such as making tools, with this knowledge.

Turn 47 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
17 food
3 slings
3 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
10 workers
3 pygmy workers
9 food
3 blowdarts
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 1 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
11 food
3 crude tools
3 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
1 apprentice
8 food
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  1 worker can expend 1 wood and 1 clay to create 5 bricks at a brick kiln.)[/color]

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
11 food
3 slings
3 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy workers
4 food
3 blowdarts
6 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 6 of ? (incomplete)

The People

Unrest: 0
Resources:
14 workers (1 with tropical disease)
9 food
6 wood
3 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
1 apprentice
3 food
3 crude spears
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Unrest: 0
Resources:
11 workers
1 master cobra-style martial artist
0 food
3 wood
3 quarterstaffs
9 crude tools
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 2.5 of ? (incomplete)

Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  1 worker can expend 1 wood and 1 clay to create 5 bricks at a brick kiln.)[/color]

1 boat
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Nagas creates artefact: The Serpent's Egg at I7 for 5FP, hopefully! This shiny ovate gemstone reduces the cost of creating new life by however much 5FP gets me. Purely in lore terms, it must be touched by expectant mothers to work. If this is going to cost more than 5FP, though, make it a Divine Project, okay?

Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)

Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy workers
8 food
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)

Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")

Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
1 apprentice
6 food
3 crude spears
2 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  1 worker can expend 1 wood and 1 clay to create 5 bricks at a brick kiln.)[/color]

Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Tellus finds the corpse of Stymphalus and fishes it out of the ocean, dropping it on B6 in a prominent spot. Any remaining FP is spent repairing it, with a strong priority on surface polish(I don't really expect to get it functional on 5 FP, but I hope I can get it decent looking).


Tellus sends a vision to those near Stymphalus when it lands: "The god of metal has returned, and your prayers will once again be listened to. And soon, the protector of the island will resume his duty."

Disci creates the Pickaxe of Discipline at H4. A solid black metal pickaxe that has a good grip. Its user turns disciplined after working with it and it is a fine tool in on itself. On the shaft there is a small heptagonal hole with runes surrounding it. The runes roughly translate to "Enter Gem of Constitution here."

Turn 50 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
1 chief
31 food
3 slings
7 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy workers
9 food
7 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
14 workers
11 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
3 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
1 disciplined worker
1 apprentice
11 food
3 crude spears
2 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
1 master cobra-style martial artist
3 food
6 wood
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
1 wooden cart
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 5 of ? (incomplete)

5 wood
9 crude tools
3 crude spears
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 9 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

Resources:
14 workers
3 food
0 wood
13 reagents
4 crude tools
4 crude spears
3 fishing nets
3 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

They are working on the tile with artifacts. Working a tile increases exploration rate, so it shouldn't matter what the people on the tile are doing.

If possible, I would like to join as a civilization:

Name: Drecthul Commonwealth
Trait: Curious
Starting Tile: B9
Starting Actions: 3 workers forage at C9, 2 workers forage at C8, 3 workers craft 3 crude tools and 2 workers explore C9
Also they start off with Cuneiform

Is this alright?

Disci creates the Sense of Discipline at J9. This sense of metal is purple and is well weighed. The Sense grants discipline to the person that used it to farm. It has a small hole in the shaft that is adorned with runes that roughly translate to: "Enter the Gem of Constitution here."


Now children many of you bestowed me with their faith, and in return you have received the gifts I brought you. I have proven to be trustworthy. I CAN be a patron god to you, if you dedicate yourselves to worship me.

Nagas opens Divine Project: The Easter Egg at D4, putting 2FP into it! The Easter Egg is a neat artefact that has exactly one power: When found by a mortal, it instantly disappears and hides itself somewhere else that is always guaranteed to be closer to the Divine Dousing^[sic] Rod than any other artefact!

Dipnoi Republic

A small communication mistake led our Mud Kiln to be built a bit far into the north. Was it really a misunderstanding, or is the "mud quality" of the northern swamp really better?

2 Workers make 10 Mud Bricks at the Mud Kiln (I6) using 2 Wood as Fuel
3 Workers farm at I7 with 3 Crude Tools
3 Pygmy Workers train to become Scouts
6 Workers build a Stone Age Farm at I6 using 6 Crude Tools
1 Labor added to the Stone Age Farm from Mathematics

"Good to be back on the ground, would be better if the duck god wasn't here."
Blarg uses his physical body to explore G7, mostly be on the lookout for the Zebras or signs that indicate where they went, also look for any artifacts that might be sitting around, specifically the wagon.

1 D W
1 Apprentice.

Last turn-
3 on farm
6 on research
2 on foraging
2 born.

So it should be 13.

On with our work.

Turn 51 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
11 workers
1 chief
22.5 food
3 slings
7 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 8 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age (houses 14 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
4 food
5 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
14 workers
13 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
3 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
12 workers
1 disciplined worker
1 disciplined philosopher
1 apprentice
11 food
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 6 of 10 (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

Resources:
14 workers (1 meditated)
1 master cobra-style martial artist (meditated)
7 food
6 wood
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
1 wooden cart
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 5 of ? (incomplete)

Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 12 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Generally defined on a case-by-case basis, but as a rule of thumb if the easiest way to describe the species is "like humans, but ___________ " then they're probably demihumans.

Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
12 workers
1 chief
19.5 food
3 slings
3 crude spears
7 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 13 of 15 (incomplete)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
1 pygmy worker
3 food
5 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
4 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

Unrest: 0
Resources:
11 workers
3 scouts
24 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

Resources:
11 workers
1 disciplined worker
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
13 food
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 9 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

1 master cobra-style martial artist
5 food
6 wood
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
1 wooden cart
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 10 of ? (incomplete)

Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 15 of ? (incomplete)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

That's an interesting philosophical question.  What is human?  Perhaps you should debate it with the Cait Sith's philosopher.  It's beginning to look like they're humans of strange appearance, since you got no FP, but who knows?  Maybe they aren't really human and I just fucked up.

Many thanks for the Aglejo's honesty.  Stone fixed.  Cait Sith said their mapmaking tech wasn't there, but it was, just not highlighted correctly.  The People's scout total was fixed, too.

It's really not, and don't try to obfuscate what IS a very simple binary hard-fact question yet again. Your response would have been reasonable if it weren't Mabel, godess of demihumans, asking the GM of the game for information that in-setting she would have known instantaniously and automatically. The philosophical crap doesn't matter, because you've already established that a given god/godess's interest in something is what makes it give them FP. either she finds it interesting, or she doesn't, the technicalities of what a demihuman is or isn't really doesn't matter. Next you're going to say we should ask the meditating monks if someones food total is accurate. Having to ask you this three times in a row is very much not okay.

Whoa now.  Let's settle down.  I wasn't being passive aggressive.  If I came off that way, it wasn't my intent.

My point was supposed to be that they could be demihuman, and for some reason they didn't trigger Mabel's aspect.  Or they could just be weird looking humans.  It is kind of an interesting philosophical question, in a goofy kind of way.  Just how different yet still humanoid does something have to be before it triggers Mabel's aspect?  If something is grotesque in our eyes, and has a weird name, does that mean it should be automatically demihuman?  Yet they could still be just weird humans.  I'm not obligated to say for sure either way, I'm afraid.

Sometimes things don't trigger an aspect when it seems like they should.  That's just the way this game rolls sometimes.  It could be that I overlooked it, or it could be that, for some reason, I deemed it to be not interesting enough to Mabel to get her excited.

Some mistakes with the Republic! We should have 3 Food instead of 36, and our population should be 11 Workers, 3 Pygmy Scouts and 1 Pygmy Worker.

Dipnoi Republic

3 Workers farm at I6 with 3 Crude Tools
3 Workers farm at I7 with 6 Crude Tools
3 Workers forage for Food at H7 with 3 Crude Tools
1 Worker and 1 Pygmy Worker build a Wooden Cart using 2 Wood.
3 Pygmy Scouts explore I6 with 3 Blowdarts, and try to avoid hostile contact.
1 Worker make 5 Mud Bricks at the Mud Kiln (I6) using 1 Wood as Fuel.
Use 3 Food to create 1 Pygmy Worker.

So they are not demihumans, and I can simply ignore them as not relevant until and unless shown otherwise, rather than spending FP looking out for them and helping them prosper. got it. thank you.

Turn 53 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers (1 injured)
1 chief
15 food
7 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
2 pygmy workers
10 food
2 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
9 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
14 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Mathematics, 3 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
10 workers
2 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
19 food
4 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 14 of 15 (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)
Notes:

Hidden Monastery
Tile: J9
Trait: Monks
Housing: 9 wooden (houses 18 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
16 workers (2 meditated) (1 with tropical disease)
1 disciplined worker
1 master cobra-style martial artist (meditated)
2 food
3 wood
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
1 wooden cart
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 10 of ? (incomplete)

Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

3 fishing nets
3 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)
Cotton, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Blarg uses his physical body and the Binoculars of Exploration to explore G7 and the ruins of Willamette to try and see if I can find my wagon, then I give Nagas 1FP.

I think at some point Nagas gave me some FP for something, but I don't remember if I gave it back, so I'm gonna give it back now.

You can make as many as you can afford.

Also, I added 1 FP to Mabel and 1 FP to Nagas because the statue the Dipnoi discovered was of a demihuman colossus battling a giant snake.  I checked Nagas's FP and it seems to be correct.  I added discipline to a Cait Sith worker and fixed the Drecthul's food.

A note about artifact books:  They usually have to be researched by 1 worker that is literate in order to learn their secrets.  If no one in your civ is literate in the script the book is written in, you will have to research the script first.  The average worker in the bronze age is illiterate.  More educated workers -- such as leaders, scholars, priests, mages -- are literate.  Gods can create books written in pictograms that everyone can read, but pictograms take many more pages to convey information which usually makes the book less powerful.

A note about gods with the same colors:  I would prefer it if one picks a different color, or keeps the same color but spiffs it up with glow, or something like that.  Lookin' at you, Disci and Felius.

Other Worldly Events:
There is a drought at tile J2.  Lack of rain causes the vegetation to dry up, increasing the risk of forest fire.

Godly actions of note:
Blarg gives 1 FP to Nagas.  Then Blarg explores the ruins of Willamette.  Within the location he discovers The Nine Iron.  It is corroded by the elements and the passage of time.  Tellus is intrigued and gets 1 FP.  Also in the ruins, Blarg finds an ancient poem etched in stone in what he recognizes as Zebra script.  It's hard to make out, but it's apparently an ode to Zebras and "how they came in the age of auld; hoofed of limbe, lacking of hand, and not so bauld."
Keerim zaps an Aglejo worker into a seagull language speaker for 3 FP.
Mabel creates the Pixie Avatar of Mabel at F11 for 15 FP!
Disci creates Sifu San Gan Feng at J9 for 15 FP!
Felius, god of Cats arrives!  Felius creates a Siamese cat at K1 for 1 FP.  Felius does not have enough FP to create a second Siamese cat.  (Gods start with 1 FP in the Bronze Age)

Turn 54 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
11 workers
3 farmers
1 chief
19 food
7 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
Notes:

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
5 pygmy workers
14 food
1 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
14 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
22 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
3 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
22 food
4 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 15 of 15 (This tech gives a bonus when exploring.  Gives a small bonus to each worker in combat in a tile that is at least 50% explored.  Is a prerequisite tech for many more advanced techs.)
Mangrove Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in mangrove forests.)
Sanitation, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)

4 wooden carts
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)
Cotton, 10 of 12 (incomplete)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Jotun Oligarchy

Despite the good intentions of the gods, or in one notable case bad intentions, the Jotun Oligarchy didn't have any artifacts that they could make use of! Until the chief yelled at people for doubting Amastay and decided to take a look at the book himself! The chief also yelled at people for doubting Mabel and tells someone to use the dowsing rod somewhere else. The chief then ponders for a moment, and that was all.

However, even though I didn't say so in the tech, I'm going to rule that you must have at least one worker building something to get the math bonus.  You can't start the construction and have it magically construct itself with no workers allocated.

Yes, it can be applied to multiple constructions, as long as you have at least one worker working on each construction.

Mathematics cannot be applied more than once each turn to the same construction.  It can be applied more than once if the construction is spread out over several turns.

Still, for 10 labor stuff, 1 turn of 6 workers vs 4 turns of 1 worker each is a huge difference when concerning multiple projects. 2 workers (tools assumed) saved up for other tasks, like research, etc.

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
9 workers
6 farmers
1 chef
6.5 food
7 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
The Divine Cookbook, 1 of 1 (Any worker that reads this book transforms into a Chef, losing whatever special properties they had.  Chefs can prepare 2 food into 1 luxury food.  Action:  "1 chef prepares 1 luxury food for 2 food."  Luxury food can be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost.  Luxury food decreases unrest when eaten!  Using The Divine Cookbook also allows any chef to prepare 1 luxury food and 1 reagent into 1 ambrosia!  Action:  "1 chef prepares ambrosia using 1 luxury food and 1 reagent and the Divine Cookbook."  Ambrosia can also be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost, and also decreases unrest.  Eating ambrosia also imparts random mystery effects that are currently unknown!  When eating luxury food or ambrosia, the size of the worker does not matter; eating any one of these fulfills the worker's food consumption requirement, no matter what the normal food requirement is.)
Notes:
Chefs are literate.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
6 pygmy workers
18 food
1 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
4 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
6 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Stone Tools, 5 of 7 (incomplete)
Stone Spears, 5 of 7 (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
8 workers
4 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
28 food
6 wood
8 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 15 of 15 (This tech gives a bonus when exploring.  Gives a small bonus to each worker in combat in a tile that is at least 50% explored.  Is a prerequisite tech for many more advanced techs.)
Mangrove Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in mangrove forests.)
Sanitation, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Shrines, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

5 stone
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 23 of 23 (The meditation buff is increased from 1.5 to 1.75 when researching.  The buff to praying remains an additional 1.5 FP.  The combat buff from meditating is increased from a small bonus to a bonus.)

16 workers
1 seagull language speaker
26 food
11 wood
7 stone
7 clay
0 bricks
12 crude tools
3 crude spears
4 wooden carts
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

Unrest: 0
Resources:
14 workers
12 food
3 wood
13 reagents
7 crude tools
5 crude spears
4 fishing nets
4 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)
Cotton, 12 of 12 (In any farm, you can farm for cotton instead of food.  The rules and yield are identical to food.  You can only farm one type of resource per farm a turn.  Cotton is a resource that potentially is useful.)
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Fish Traps, 14 of 14 (This tech provides an additional small bonus to all fishing.)
Seafaring, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Sails, 1 of ? (research stalled)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Jotun Oligarchy

The Jotun Oligarchy focus on food for the time being as their stockpile has dwindled too much. Now that the chief has removed the letter "i" from its title, the need for a new chief has arisen.

While its not immediately needed, the Jotun Oligarchy would like a second food based tile just in case disaster strikes in the future...

As the divine dousing rod points somewhere, the dowsing rod is once again used at B2.

But the Chef is still listed as a Chief. This seems like an error.
Also, the Jotun Oligarchy did not notice even a single Iguana. This seems like an error.

Amastay replaces the tile at C3 with a forest made entirely of fruit trees. Besides having lots of fruit to correct, many creatures will no doubt come to reside there since they can subsist on the fruit.

In the distance, Blarg can see a black and white striped spire, just like he saw in his dream/vision.

Is this the same place Keerim is or is it a different place?

Mine is orange and black, so I think that you are seeing your zebra followers' tower

Keerim creates the artifact The Edict of Keerim at the location where the Aglejo me the seagull people. The Edict is a large copper statue of Keerim’s avatar with an inscription in both Aglejo and Seagull script that declares the floating islands as the sovereign territory of the Aglejo. The Edict is also a partially completed shrine/temple with however much progress 5FP will buy(probably just 1 or 2 worker-turns of labor).
Then creates a flying iguana near the Edict, and then rings the bell

Tellus, do you want to pool our power to make a research boosting artifact for the Aglejo? If I remember correctly, it costs 10 FP per 10% boost, so we could give them a 20% boost

Disci, how do you want to get FP from monks? I'm finally nearing the stage when I can dedicate some labor to actually returning previous favors. I'm considering going Temple route (1.5 FP per worker per turn) while for now, meditation should cover FP raising (2.5 per worker per 2 turns). If you have some other ideas - I'm willing to listen. Getting priests is ill-advised, though, as I see monks as opportunistic rather than dedicated worshippers. They quite revere the discipline, though.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: Detoxicated on August 11, 2018, 04:07:08 pm

I was thinking of training prayers... Basically small prayers that would be done before and after training. That way whenever you would train someone they would generate small amounts of fp. I do think that a priest is unfitting for the monks as well. All monks are in a way priests but instead of focusing on prayer they focus on working hard and disciplined to unfold the will of gods. If you dedicate meditation to me i will respect it greatly as meditation is a form of deep inner discipline.
Maybe you could also include work prayers similar to the prayers of training...

Also, as your ancestor is a true hero of discipline, paying respect to him is important, as I consider him to be a Paladin of Discipline. I am a god and you will never be like me, but he was a human, so all monks should thrive to be like him.

The birdmen are so insignificant, they didn't even generate any FP for the gods, with the sole exception of their interactions with the Ageljo. This means that since the dawn of the second age, they did none of the following things:

Construct anything (Amastay)
Create special worker types (Disci)
Increase population (Keerim)
Do anything with metal (Tellus)
Craft anything noteworthy (Kel)
Pray even a single time

And we already know that animals CAN generate FP, as demonstrated by the Zebras.

Interesting suggestion about Neheb. I do intend for monks to revere him (and, you may have noticed, his spirit still lingers in this world. Damn great dedication!)

About prayers - in a sense, its already there. You get FP each time monks train a new style or grow in discipline. In my view, praying to Disci is about doing things well and in complete dedication rather than delivering empty words

Sometimes your knowledge of my views astonish me. The true devotion to the task at hand truly inspires me, but as I too am an imperfect being I must nourish myself with the faith of my followers.

I have no fear that you will survive every challenge thrown at you.

Consider this, prayers are not empty words when the speaker allows to reflect the words he speaks. Upon every prayer a lesson can be learned if the prayer is honest and out of the will to embrace discipline. Now pardon me I have to say something to another child of discipline.



Cait Sith, I admire you so much so I will give you an insight. My harshness towards you results from my wish that you improve yourself even more. You have accomplished what others havenot even grasped in their imagination, but at times it seems that you expect that things fall into your hands because you deserve it. Such is not the law of the universe, it is only your diligence and discipline that shapes the world in your favour. On the day When you truely embrace discipline and feed her with dedication you will accomplish the legendary. The spark of potential is there but as you still have not understood discipline fully the potential remains unfulfilled. Have no fear, I expect that you will grow to be exceptionay extraordinary. Also, you could be more thankful for the gofts the gods bestowed upon you.


After having said so much to the many children of hers, Disci sits down and begins a deep meditation.

Aglejo

Error: 2 workers should have been created this turn.

The Aglejo people burst into outrage as their interpreter recounts the emissary's speech to them. By what right did these misshapen birds lay their claim and impose their demands? Had the Islands not been carved into existence, lifted into the heavens, and gifted to their ancestors in a time before time by the Father of the Sky himself? Was the gift of avian speech not a sign of His continued divine presence amongst them? Would their Empress challenge the will of God?
...
Thoughts of protest are quickly stifled by glances at the Whitewing soldiers and their gleaming spears, for the people of Aglejo are peasants ill-suited to the art of warfare. They slowly return to their duties, conflicted by the recent turn of events.

1 seagull language speaker and 2 workers pray to Keerim, asking for guidance.
4 workers build a smelter at B6 using 4 crude tools.
3 workers farm at B6 using 3 crude tools.
3 workers harvest at B6 using 3 crude tools.

This is a extremely well crafted sword made of steel. It grants its user knowledge how to use it proficently. When pointed at something, if the user focuses the sword has the power to damage or outright turn into dust metal items worn by that creature, such as weapons or armour. This special ability has limited daily uses.

Keerim creates the Edict of Keerim at B6 for 5 FP.  Then Keerim creates a flying iguana at B6 for 1 FP.  Then Keerim pulls the rope on the orange and black tower.  A gong is heard that echoes in the cavernous hall behind the door.  After several minutes, footsteps are finally heard behind the door.  Clanking is heard as the bolts are unlocked, and the wooden door opens with a creak.  There stands a Zebra; except, he is not a Zebra, but a Zebra-man.  His face is equine like a Zebra's, but his fur is very sparse like on a human, except on top of his head, where it is in thick black and orange striped tufts.  He has the body of a human, complete with arms, hands, legs, and feet, and that body is clad in an orange robe.  For a silent moment, the Zebra regards Keerim; then he opens the door fully, and gestures, saying, "Come in.  We've been expecting you."  Keerim follows the Zebra inside.  They walk down an exquisitely tiled hallway.  The place appears to be superbly built.  At the end of the hallway, the Zebra opens a door, and gestures for the bird god to enter.  The small room contains bookshelves with Zebra books, a table, and two finely crafted leather upholstered chairs.  The two sit.  Says the Zebra:  "I must say, we were not expecting you this early.  We did get the pigeon informing us that tribute was to be expected of us, but it also said that that would be two weeks from now.  We haven't had time to prepare your tribute, though if you don't mind waiting, we can prepare a makeshift tribute within the hour.  Meanwhile, would you like some tea while you wait?"  Without waiting for an answer, the Zebra claps his hands, and a human servant hustles in with a tray of tea and biscuits.
Blarg drives towards black and white tower.  The exploration level is raised 3%.  The tower is impressive and of superb workmanship.  It is surrounded by finely manicured gardens peppered with conservative sculpture that is well within the bounds of what is considered good taste in the bronze age.  By a wooden door hangs a rope that presumably tolls a bell; below the rope is a sign in Zebra script that says "No Solicitors."

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
8 workers
6 farmers
1 chef
1 chief
16.5 food
4 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
The Divine Cookbook, 1 of 1 (Any worker that reads this book transforms into a Chef, losing whatever special properties they had.  Chefs can prepare 2 food into 1 luxury food.  Action:  "1 chef prepares 1 luxury food for 2 food."  Luxury food can be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost.  Luxury food decreases unrest when eaten!  Using The Divine Cookbook also allows any chef to prepare 1 luxury food and 1 reagent into 1 ambrosia!  Action:  "1 chef prepares ambrosia using 1 luxury food and 1 reagent and the Divine Cookbook."  Ambrosia can also be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost, and also decreases unrest.  Eating ambrosia also imparts random mystery effects that are currently unknown!  When eating luxury food or ambrosia, the size of the worker does not matter; eating any one of these fulfills the worker's food consumption requirement, no matter what the normal food requirement is.)
Notes:
Chefs are literate.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
11 workers
3 pygmy scouts
6 pygmy workers
17 food
1 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
4 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Geometry, 5 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
0 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Stone Tools, 5 of 7 (incomplete)
Stone Spears, 5 of 7 (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
7 workers
5 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
28 food
6 wood
8 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 15 of 15 (This tech gives a bonus when exploring.  Gives a small bonus to each worker in combat in a tile that is at least 50% explored.  Is a prerequisite tech for many more advanced techs.)
Mangrove Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in mangrove forests.)
Sanitation, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Shrines, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 23 of 23 (The meditation buff is increased from 1.5 to 1.75 when researching.  The buff to praying remains an additional 1.5 FP.  The combat buff from meditating is increased from a small bonus to a bonus.)

9 bricks
12 crude tools
3 crude spears
4 wooden carts
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)

4 fishing nets
4 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)
Cotton, 12 of 12 (In any farm, you can farm for cotton instead of food.  The rules and yield are identical to food.  You can only farm one type of resource per farm a turn.  Cotton is a resource that potentially is useful.)
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

4 workers build a smelter at B6 using 4 crude tools.  The smelter is completed.  Amastay gets 2 FP.  Tellus gets 3 FP!  (I assume you're using bricks in place of stone.  I'll allow it.)

I'd say this is an error. I had 7 stone last turn, from which you appear to have deducted 6 to cover the cost of the smelter as expected. The use of bricks was therefore unnecessary.

Post by: TricMagic on August 17, 2018, 01:40:58 pm

Looks at Dipnoi techs...

They would at least need Magic Runes to make enchanted gear, or at the very lowest point, actual Magic Tech. Gifting an artifact set without the ability to use it is not the brightest of Ideas.

You could also go the Forge path, but they don't have that researched either. Just Math and soon Geometry. Magic takes a lot to get into, let alone advance. We have a medieval tech in Advanced Magic.

We kinda aim rather high actually. The whole Magic Difficulty has been addressed by the GM before. And we do tend to be a bit prickly about others thinking it's easy. It requires much discipline to it's path, and new spells often require research.

If they travel along the path of Geometry, a Star Book detailing the Seasons and the stars of those seasons could jumpstart their Travel beyond their currant lands. A way to Navigate.

They still need to learn camping, but it is something.


Another Option is the Formula Mathematics, which details all the various Formula for various Maths. No clue what it would do though.

My race has a major advantage at Magic, and Advanced Magic still took us a long time. You're looking at a 30 to 50 point requirement to even enter Magic, Let alone use it.

Last age I had a suggestion of a Divine Project called Yggdrasil. You can always save up the 50 FP for that. Though it was more to help us even further. It will take a lot to create without Divine Intervention. The Shrine Research is simply our first step.

True, But they might have a bit of trouble getting here. Pretty sure the Djinn are still around.

One of our goals is the Swamp of Challenges, the other, the Monastery.

The first is a good way to test ourselves, and the second is for trade and closer relations to them. The old format of Monk, Healer, Mage is a good battle combination, though i kinda wish the Cat Martial arts were ours too. So there's that.

Blarg pulls the rope.  A gong is heard that echoes in the cavernous hall behind the door.  After several minutes, footsteps are finally heard behind the door.  Clanking is heard as the bolts are unlocked, and the wooden door opens with a creak.  There stands a Zebra; except, he is not a Zebra, but a Zebra-man.  His face is equine like a Zebra's, but his fur is very sparse like on a human, except on top of his head, where it is in thick white and black striped tufts.  He has the body of a human, complete with arms, hands, legs, and feet, and that body is clad in a white robe.  For a silent moment, the Zebra regards Blarg with a slightly confused look on its face, then speaks.  Says the Zebra:  "Can I help you?  Are you lost or something?"

Turn 57 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
6 workers
6 farmers
1 chef
1 chief
3 warriors
13.5 food
4 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
The Divine Cookbook, 1 of 1 (Any worker that reads this book transforms into a Chef, losing whatever special properties they had.  Chefs can prepare 2 food into 1 luxury food.  Action:  "1 chef prepares 1 luxury food for 2 food."  Luxury food can be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost.  Luxury food decreases unrest when eaten!  Using The Divine Cookbook also allows any chef to prepare 1 luxury food and 1 reagent into 1 ambrosia!  Action:  "1 chef prepares ambrosia using 1 luxury food and 1 reagent and the Divine Cookbook."  Ambrosia can also be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost, and also decreases unrest.  Eating ambrosia also imparts random mystery effects that are currently unknown!  When eating luxury food or ambrosia, the size of the worker does not matter; eating any one of these fulfills the worker's food consumption requirement, no matter what the normal food requirement is.)
Dietary Efficiency, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Chefs are literate.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
10 workers
3 pygmy scouts
5 pygmy workers
1 priest of Nagas
1 pygmy priest of Nagas
13 food
1 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
4 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)[/color]
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Geometry, 10 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
3 food
0 wood
1 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Stone Tools, 7 of 7 (Your civ delays metal tool research to perfect stone age tools.  Stone tools can now be constructed.  They give a 0.75 bonus instead of the 0.5 bonus that crude tools give.  They cost 1 labor and 1 stone to create.)
Stone Spears, 7 of 7 (Your civ delays metal weapon research to perfect stone age weapons.  Stone spears can now be constructed.  They give a better bonus in combat than crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and 1 stone to create.)
Crop Rotation, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
6 workers
6 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
26 food
10 wood
10 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 15 of 15 (This tech gives a bonus when exploring.  Gives a small bonus to each worker in combat in a tile that is at least 50% explored.  Is a prerequisite tech for many more advanced techs.)
Mangrove Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in mangrove forests.)
Sanitation, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Shrines, 4 of ? (incomplete)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

5 stone
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
3 wooden carts
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 23 of 23 (The meditation buff is increased from 1.5 to 1.75 when researching.  The buff to praying remains an additional 1.5 FP.  The combat buff from meditating is increased from a small bonus to a bonus.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)

4 wooden carts
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)

4 fishing nets
4 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

No. We already have our gods from the first age. They get their Shrines first.

I'm kinda curious as to what gods those might be now that you said something about it.

Blarg, Mabel, Izzith, Disci, and Telius. You never did pay too much attention to us, but your gifts are something we praise. Or will anyway.

Mabel is Mabel. Helpful Forever.

Izzith is Gone, we mourn what could have been.

Disci has zapped us quite a few times, and our Discipline has helped us.

Telius offered up a new Arcanum, though we failed to make full use of it.


Needless to say, 5 is plenty.

GM, please reconsider. I had a free logistic slot for Sanitation research, just thought I can pile things together to ease counting things up (plus, I do not think you ever mentioned this)

There were 11 research from 4 meditated for Math & 8.25 research from 3 meditated for Sanitation, so they did not rely on completion of another.

Also understood about combining tool creation. Though it was a decent try, won't try again.

I seem to remember Cait Sith trying something similar early in the game.  But anyway, sorry that didn't work out, but now you know that you can't bunch separate actions together like that.  Some things in this game aren't really explained completely but have to be learned and discovered, including rules for writing out actions!

That spreadsheet you made is real interesting.  That must have taken some work.  Food gathering averages appear about right to me.  I remember someone getting bad rolls several turns in a row, but mostly I haven't been paying attention to the averageness of the rolls.  The monks and the Drecthul have no techs that enhance food production and no fertile tiles which is why they've been around 2.5 average per worker.  It should be around 3 per worker with a farm and crude tools, but they have not been farming every turn.

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine
Post by: Sarrak on August 18, 2018, 07:39:28 am

Alright, lesson learned  :D

I think until this turn, farm production averaged~2.5 even with tools. Might be bad rolls, but it would make me second guess farming altogether if not for discipline artifact.

I'll continue updating this spreadsheet when I have time, so tech comparision and food boasting may occur freely.

EDIT: It seems that this turn you missed Sense of Discipline making worker disciplined (and FP to Disci if still interested)

EDIT2: Dipnoi results - Priests of Nagas give FP to Blarg?  ::)

Well, we'd probably want a book on creating Gohei (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gohei), wands for purification and light/holy Magic. Or a Book on Purification Magic, a new Arcanum to go with the shrines.

The first would be 5 FP, and the second, 15FP.


... The Arcanum would be better, since it could definitely include all sorts of gear that can be created to help. Shide are an important part of Shrines. Doesn't really matter until the Academy and the first Shrine are built.


Well, hopefully we can finish research this turn or the next.

It would likely work best in the hands of a Scout or Hunter. Going into the same tile with it yields little.

...My Seeker's Compass is better, since it's mutable. Good for my Scout as well, since finding locations will prove easier.

Felius creates an iguana (1 FP) on B9.

here's the other iguana, not my action, just noticed that it got missed

"No sacrifices please, that's not really my kind of thing. I could use a servant though, he'll do nicely, free him so that he can do his job." Keerim turns to address his new servant "Go to the library and get me some history books, try to get at least a summary of all recorded history, I'll look into the details later." talking to the representative again "I have another group of followers far away, and I would prefer if you were more unified. I will be making a gate that connects you to them and I want you to cooperate as equals."

Keerim starts a divine project for a pair of travel gates that will connect G9 and B6 and adds 7 FP to the project. These gates will allow travel between the two tiles.

Disci creates the Gem of Constitution at J9. The Gem of constitution is a hexagonal green shimmering gem. It seems that holders of the gem seem to increase their overall constitution. They can run longer, hold their breath for a longer time, and can carry stuff for a longer time. The effect of the gem does not wear off after putting the gem someplace else. When put together with the sense of discipline it grants its user high reflexes permanently.

Other Worldly Events:

Godly actions of note:

Kel  creates the Smithing Tools of Magic at I6 for 10 FP!
Blarg shows the zebra the Nine Iron, and the big wagon.  The Zebra looks interestedly at the wagon, but looks dubiously at Blarg upon hearing his claim of being the god of swamps.  The Zebra invites Blarg inside and offers him food and drink.  Blarg gets the impression that the Zebra thinks Blarg is a poor mad Zebra and is taking pity on him.  "This is a bit amusing, actually," says the Zebra as he sets a tray of food before Blarg and sits at the table with him.  "There is a prophecy in the old books about the Swamp god returning one day, but no one actually expects Blarg to literally walk through our front door.  We're all quite rational these days, you know; except for a few kooks, no one believes that the gods really exist, or ever existed.  It is all superstitious mumbo-jumbo from our more primitive days.  But you're welcome to stay here until we figure out who you really are."
Mabel continues exploring F11, raising exploration by 7%.
Keerim begins the divine project "Travel Gates that connect G9 and B6" and puts 7 FP into the project.  Then Keerim turns to the first Zebra and orders the release of the chained Zebra, much to the surprise and befuddlement of the first Zebra and the gratitude of the chained Zebra.  The confusion only increases when Keerim describes what else he wants, but the first Zebra complies and releases the chained Zebra, whose name is Gino, who then enthusiastically goes to the library and comes back with an armful of heavy, dusty tomes.  The first Zebra watches with a quizzical expression as this goes on.  "I mean no offense," says the first Zebra, "but I am surprised that a Whitewing emissary would be interested in scholarly pursuits.  I mean, I had heard that your people have no time for and no interest in such things."
Disci creates the Gem of Constitution at J9 for 10 FP.
Nagas puts 2 FP into the divine project "Irredentist's Fang".
Farsky creates the divine project "the Grove of Swords" and puts 20 FP into it.

Turn 58 continued

Civilization status:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Jotun Oligarchy
Tile: D4
Trait: Giants
Secondary Trait:  Bloodborn (increased stamina and ferocity in combat)
Housing: 7 giant stone age (houses 21 total giant sized)
Sanitation: 100
Unrest: 0
Resources:
7 workers
6 farmers
1 chef
1 chief
3 warriors
21 food
7 wood
3 slings
3 crude spears
10 crude tools
2 wooden carts
Technologies:
Gigantic Structures, 4 of 4 (You can now build giant-sized versions of buildings!  Giant-sized versions cost twice the resources and labor, but have twice the benefits.   Farm and orchard yield is not affected, but efficiency is.  For example, 6 workers can harvest or farm gigantic orchards and farms with no loss in efficiency.  Giant sized stone age houses house 3 giant workers or 6 normal workers.  Additionally, giant workers provide 50% more labor when constructing giant-sized buildings, or any construction that costs 10 or more labor.  Normal sized buildings can be upgraded into giant-sized by putting in the normal sized costs in labor and resources again.)
Slings, 8 of 8 (You can now create slings!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many slings you are using.  Slings add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.  Slings are better at ranged combat but worse in hand-to-hand combat.)
Temples, 10 of 10 (You can now construct temples.  Temples cost 10 labor and 10 stone and 6 wood to construct.  Temples must be dedicated to one god.  Workers who pray to that god at the temple generate an additional 0.5 FP for that god.  Praying to a god at a temple not dedicated to that god does not generate additional FP.  Praying at a temple can also help to reduce unrest in the civ.  Action wording:  "1 worker prays to Blarg at the temple of Blarg at A1.")
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)
Leadership, 10 of 10 (You can now train 1 worker to be a chief.  The chief can give speeches that reduce unrest.  The chief can also lead workers in battle, giving a small bonus in battle to all workers being led.  Maximum of 1 chief per settlement.)
Farming Profession, 15 of 15 (Your workers can now train to become farmers.  Farmers get a small bonus when farming, harvesting, and ranching.  However, farmers are poor at researching, and not as good as vanilla workers in combat.)
The Divine Cookbook, 1 of 1 (Any worker that reads this book transforms into a Chef, losing whatever special properties they had.  Chefs can prepare 2 food into 1 luxury food.  Action:  "1 chef prepares 1 luxury food for 2 food."  Luxury food can be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost.  Luxury food decreases unrest when eaten!  Using The Divine Cookbook also allows any chef to prepare 1 luxury food and 1 reagent into 1 ambrosia!  Action:  "1 chef prepares ambrosia using 1 luxury food and 1 reagent and the Divine Cookbook."  Ambrosia can also be eaten instead of normal food for no action cost, and also decreases unrest.  Eating ambrosia also imparts random mystery effects that are currently unknown!  When eating luxury food or ambrosia, the size of the worker does not matter; eating any one of these fulfills the worker's food consumption requirement, no matter what the normal food requirement is.)
Dietary Efficiency, 2 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:
Chefs are literate.

Dipnoi Republic
Tile: I7
Trait: Mud
Secondary trait: Pygmy (The pygmies integrated with your civ!  When creating workers, you can create a pygmy worker instead of a vanilla worker.  Pygmy workers are good at fighting with ranged weapons, but poor at fighting hand-to-hand.  Pygmies get a slight bonus when foraging for reagents but get a small malus when foraging for stone and ore.)
Housing: 7 stone age, 3 mud brick (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Diplomatic states:
Resources:
10 workers
3 pygmy scouts
5 pygmy workers
1 priest of Nagas
1 pygmy priest of Nagas
13 food
1 wood
3 blowdarts
9 crude tools
1 wooden cart
4 mud bricks
Technologies:
Mud Survival, 4 of 4 (Workers get a small bonus to all foraging in muddy tiles.  Workers get a small bonus to all combat in muddy tiles.  Muddy tiles are typically tiles like swamp or riverbanks, or land tiles where it has recently rained.)
Blowdarts, 6 of 6 (You can now create blowdarts!  They cost no resources, but need 1 labor, to make.  When used, you must specify how many blowdarts you are using.  Blowdarts add a small bonus in combat, and can be used for hunting.)
Snake Taming, 8 of 8 (You can now train workers to be snake tamers.  Snake tamers can perform all worker actions.  They can also tame wild or hostile, nonsentient, snake-like creatures.  There is a chance the Snake tamer will be injured if the creature being tamed is dangerous.  Snake tamers can also lead tame snakes into other tiles.  Snake tamers can also order tame snakes to attack a tile, and tame snakes will defend a snake tamer if he is attacked.)
Mud Construction, 7 of 7 (Mud versions of constructions that you can build can be built.  Mud versions of buildings can have one required resource besides labor substituted with "mud", which is always free.  Mud versions of buildings can only be built in muddy tiles.)
Mud Brick, 10 of 10 (You can now build the Mud Kiln.  The Mud Kiln costs 8 labor and no resources.  Once completed, the Mud Kiln can make 5 mud bricks for the cost of 1 labor and 1 fuel.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource such as wood.  The Mud Kiln will not be operational if not in a muddy tile.  You can also build Mud Brick Houses.  Mud Brick Houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor and 2 mud bricks.  You can also research Mud Brick versions of constructions.  Mud bricks are a special case and can't be substituted with "mud" using the Mud Construction tech.)[/color]
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Priesthood, 10 of 10 (You can now construct the Ziggurath!  The Ziggurath costs 10 labor, 10 mud bricks, and 6 wood.  The Ziggurath must be dedicated to a god.  The Ziggurath can train workers to be Priests.  Priests are dedicated to the god that the Ziggurath is dedicated to.  Priests automatically generate 1 FP for their god a turn.  Priests can also bless one worker a turn to give them a bonus in combat for one turn.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Mud Thermae, 12 of 12 (You can now construct the Mud Bathhouse.  It costs 12 labor to construct.  The Mud Bathhouse raises your sanitation by 10 every turn, and decreases your unrest by 8 every turn.  1 injured worker a turn can be healed by the Batthouse.  The Mud Batthouse will raise prestige when prestige becomes a thing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Geometry, 10 of ? (incomplete)

The People
Tile: H4
Trait: Megaprojects
Housing: 7 wooden, 3 stone age (houses 20 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
13 workers
3 scouts
5 food
0 wood
7 stone
5 reagents
6 crude tools
7 crude spears
2 boats
Technologies:
Wonder Construction, 4 of 4 (Wonders are unique megaprojects that take lots of labor and resources.  They impart special benefits to the civilization that builds them.  A wonder must be researched like a tech.  They typically require lots of labor to research, and lots of labor and resources to construct.  Wonders of the Stone Age typically require stone which might require you to research Stoneworking before construction can begin.  Techs similar to Mathematics no doubt will help with wonder construction.  Workers of civs with the Megaprojects trait add 50% more labor when construction wonders.  There can only be 7 wonders from each age constructed ever.)
Simple Hunting Traps, 6 of 6 (This tech gives a small bonus when hunting or fishing.)
Plains Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in plains.)
Raiding, 6 of 6 (Raiding is now available as an action!  Raiding is a surprise attack intended to get in, grab resources and objects, and then get out before the defenders can respond.  Workers can also be captured if your technology supports it!  Raiding need not be conducted against a settled tile, but can be ordered to a tile where you expect enemy workers to be doing things.  Raiding is not always successful; sometimes a pitched battle is the result, and sometimes the raiders retreat without getting anything.  Raiding tends to be less successful against well armed foes in well defended positions.  Civs with the Raider trait get a bonus to raiding.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Wooden Structures, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Boat Construction, 6 of 6 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Stone Tools, 7 of 7 (Your civ delays metal tool research to perfect stone age tools.  Stone tools can now be constructed.  They give a 0.75 bonus instead of the 0.5 bonus that crude tools give.  They cost 1 labor and 1 stone to create.)
Stone Spears, 7 of 7 (Your civ delays metal weapon research to perfect stone age weapons.  Stone spears can now be constructed.  They give a better bonus in combat than crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and 1 stone to create.)
Crop Rotation, 6 of ? (incomplete)
Notes:

Cait Sith
Tile: K1
Trait: Magic
Secondary traits: Extramagical, Cat-like demihuman
Housing: 5 grown tree (houses 15 total)
Unrest: 0
Resources:
5 workers
7 disciplined workers
1 disciplined philosopher
1 disciplined scout
1 apprentice
24 food
0 wood
0 stone
3 crude spears
4 crude tools
3 generic book-making materials
Technologies:
Magic Theory, 4 of 4 (You can now train apprentices!  Apprentices are spellcasters and can cast simple spells, assuming you have any researched.  They must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the apprentice is inherently magical.  Apprentices are poor in hand-to-hand combat but might be deadly in a support role, depending on your spells.  They are bad at everything except researching, creating spellbooks, and casting spells.  To train one, simply use "1 worker trains to be apprentice" as an action. )
Advanced Magic Theory, 23 of 23 (Upon completion of this spell, one apprentice becomes a Magus.  Magi can research and cast spells of medium complexity or lower.  Like an apprentice, a Magus must have a spellbook to cast spells, unless the Magus is inherently magical.  This tech also allows you to construct the Magus Academy.  This construction costs 12 labor, 12 wood, and 12 stone.  The Magus Academy allows Magi to train apprentices into Magi.  You cannot train Magi without the Magus Academy!  You cannot train Magi if you have less than 2 apprentices for every Magus.  The Magus Academy also provides a small bonus when researching spells.)
Simple Spells, 4 of 4 (You can now research simple spells!  Think introductory level, apprentice spells.  Note that many spells have a reagent cost to cast.  However, most simple level spells should cost only 1 reagent, and magical spellcasters reduce the reagent cost of all spells by one, making most simple spells free to cast for magical spellcasters!  Spells are researched like a normal tech, except only spellcasters can research them!)
Early Philosophy, 8 of 8 (You can now create Philosophers!  Philosophers can use the argue action.  Each philosopher arguing gives a slight chance to make workers researching on the same turn have a breakthrough, giving bonus research.  Usage: "X philosophers argue."  Philosophers are useless at everything except arguing; they will not even defend themselves if attacked!  This tech is also necessary to get many more advanced techs.)
Writing, 8 of 8 (You have discovered writing!  This tech is necessary for many more advanced techs.  Additionally, this tech increases your logistics by 1.)
Logistics, 6 of 6 (You discover new ways to organize workers.  Increases your logistics by 1.)
Magic Runes, 15 of 15 (This tech allows for the creation of spellbooks.  Spellbooks are necessary for (non-magical) spellcasters to cast spells.  Spellbooks also slightly increase the power of some spells, making them still useful for inherently magical spellcasters.  Spellbooks require 1 book to make, and 1 labor, and can only be made by spellcasters.  "Writer" spellcasters get a bonus when making spellbooks.  This tech is also necessary in order to research higher forms of magic.)
Spiritualism, 14 of 14 (Your workers now generate an additional 0.5 FP for a god when they worship that god.  Fractions of FP are dropped.  Your workers can now commune with the spirits.  Once per turn, you can spend 1 labor to ask a question of the spirits.  They won't necessarily answer truthfully or clearly.)
Arcanum Botanica research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook contains many spells for manipulating plants.  Just about any spell imaginable that impacts foraging, farming, or harvesting can be found inside.  However, remember that apprentices can only cast "simple" spells; many of the spells in the book are much too advanced for an apprentice to comprehend!  Also, this spellbook does not provide free spell research.  The only one who can cast spells from it is the spellcaster in possession of it; thus, only one spell can be cast a turn from the book.  Remember that there is a reagent cost to spells (though magical trait does take away 1 from casting cost of spells).  If you want to cast a spell from it, you should ask the GM if it is possible first.)
Bookmaking, 12 of 12 (You are now able to make books.  Books cost 1 labor and 1 of some type of book making material (or 1 generic "book-making material").  Spells from Arcanum Botanica can be cast to make generic book-making material, or you can research some kind of book making material.  Books in real-life antiquity typically were made of vellum or papyrus.)
Arcanum Mineralis research, 1 of 1 (This artifact spellbook is similar to Arcanum Botanica but contains spells for mining and extraction of ores, metals, and gems.  Research of this book also grants the civ 1 research point in Metallurgy.)
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Exploration, 10 of 10 (Your workers can train to become scouts.  Scouts are twice as effective as vanilla workers at exploration.  Scouts can observe tiles without being seen, though there is a chance they'll be discovered.  Scouts are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.)
Basic Mapmaking, 15 of 15 (This tech gives a bonus when exploring.  Gives a small bonus to each worker in combat in a tile that is at least 50% explored.  Is a prerequisite tech for many more advanced techs.)
Mangrove Survival, 6 of 6 (Workers get a small bonus to foraging for food, hunting, fishing, and combat in mangrove forests.)
Sanitation, 7 of 8 (incomplete)
Shrines, 12 of 12 (You can now construct Shrines.  Shrines cost 12 labor, 6 wood, and 6 stone to construct.  Shrines must be dedicated to one god.  Once built, the shrine generates 1 FP for that god every turn.  There can be no more than 3 shrines in settled tiles, and no more than 1 in other tiles.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Bō, 1 of ? (incomplete)
Spells:
Book-making Harvest, 5 of 5 (Simple spell.  Makes 1-3 generic book making materials.)
Fireball, 7 of 7 (Simple spell.  For 1 reagent, a ball of flame shoots from the casters hands at one target.  Damage increases with the skill of the caster.)
Aero, 7 of 7 (Simple Spell.  For 1 reagent, a gust of wind knocks over an opponent and might even do damage depending on strength.  Effect increases with the skill of the caster.)

1 disciplined master cobra-style martial artist (1 meditated)
11 food
0 wood
5 stone
3 quarterstaffs
10 crude tools
3 wooden carts
Technologies:
Enter the Dragon, 4 of 4 (Allows construction of the Martial Arts School.  It costs 10 labor and 10 wood.  The Martial Arts School can train workers to be beginner martial artists.  Beginner martial artists can do all vanilla worker actions but are better in combat.)
Sensei Tradition, 7 of 7 (Upon completion of this tech, one martial artist with a particular style becomes a master martial artist of that style.  A master (or higher) martial artist can teach his style to 1 beginner martial artist a turn.  If a Martial Arts School is owned, a master can train any one worker to be a beginner martial artist of his style a turn.  This tech also allows martial arts masters to create one manual of his style!  The Style Manual (with a martial arts school) allows the master to train beginner martial artists of his style into journeyman martial artists of his style, 1 per turn.  A Style Manual requires 1 book to create.)
Body Strengthening, 7 of 7 (Martial artists are now stronger, tougher, and have more endurance.  Gives all martial artists a small bonus in combat.)
Wood Buildings, 10 of 10 (Houses can be upgraded into Wooden Houses.  A Wooden House costs 3 labor and 3 wood.  Each Wooden House houses 2 workers.)
Meditation, 11 of 11 (Enables the meditation action.  Usage:  "1 worker meditates."  The meditate action gives the worker a meditation buff for the next turn.  Workers with a meditation buff generate an additional 1.5 research points when researching, and an additional 1.5 FP when praying to a god.  The meditation buff also gives the worker a small bonus in combat.  The meditation buff goes away at the end of the turn after the turn the worker meditates.)
Quarterstaff Creation, 9 of 9 (Allows creation of quarterstaves.  The quarterstaff gives the same small bonus as a crude spear in combat.  However, when used by martial artists, it gives an additional small bonus in combat.  It requires 1 labor and 1 wood to create.)
Deep Meditation, 23 of 23 (The meditation buff is increased from 1.5 to 1.75 when researching.  The buff to praying remains an additional 1.5 FP.  The combat buff from meditating is increased from a small bonus to a bonus.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)

5 bricks
12 crude tools
3 crude spears
4 wooden carts
Technologies:
Engineer's Mindset, 4 of 4 (The bonus you get from using tools increases by 0.5.  For example, crude tools now generate a bonus of 1 instead of the 0.5 that everyone else gets.  When constructing constructions that require 10 or more labor, your workers provide an additional 0.5 labor.)
Crop Rotation, 10 of 10 (Farming is now more effective.  Gives a small bonus when farming.)
Masonry, 14 of 14 (Allows construction of brick houses.  Brick houses house 3 workers and cost 5 labor, 5 bricks, and 2 wood to construct.  Also allows construction of the brick kiln.  The Brick kiln costs 8 labor and 4 stone to construct.  With a brick kiln, 1 labor, 1 clay, and 1 fuel can be spent to create 5 bricks.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)[/color]
Clay Foraging, 8 of 8 (Allows foraging for clay.)
Bronze Age Farming, 20 of 20 (Bronze age farms can now be built.  The food yield at bronze age farms over stone age farms is, on average, 0.5 higher per worker.  Also, 4 workers can farm at a bronze age farm with no loss in efficiency.  Bronze age farms cost 25 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood to create.  Stone age farms can be upgraded for 15 labor, 10 stone or 10 bricks, and 10 wood.)
Diplomacy, 8 of 8 (It is now possible to have diplomatic states with civs other than the default hostility!  The possible diplomatic states are War, Hostility, Neutral, Friendly, and Allied.  You can change your diplomatic state by simply doing something like, for example, "Change diplomatic state with Xekarni to Neutral."  It doesn't use a logistics slot.  Note that two civs can set different diplomatic states with each other, and the other civ must research Diplomacy before they can reciprocate your diplomatic state.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)
Geology, 10 of ? (incomplete)
Sanitation, 8 of 8 (It occurs to your people that throwing their waste into the streets is a bad idea.  Sanitation is increased by 5 every turn.)

Unrest: 0
Resources:
14 workers
26 food
8 wood
5 cotton
13 reagents
7 crude tools
5 crude spears
4 fishing nets
4 boats
Technologies:
Call of the Sea, 4 of 4 (Your civ has a profound drive to sail the high seas!  Your workers get a bonus when fishing on sea or ocean tiles.  This still requires some kind of boat and fishing tool.  Your workers get a small bonus when constructing ships, boats, and buildings related to navies and ocean shipping.  Your workers get a small bonus to naval combat and any combat on seas and oceans.)
Boat Construction, 5 of 5 (You can now build boats.  Boats allow workers to perform actions on water tiles such as oceans, or lakes.  You must have 1 boat for every worker that performs an action on water tiles.  Boats also allow workers to traverse water tiles, should you ever increase your action range.  Spears or fishing tools are still required to fish on water tiles.  1 boat costs 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Example action usage:  "1 worker fishes at A1 with 1 boat and 1 crude spear.")
Fishing, 6 of 6 (Your people become more skilled at fishing.  Gives a small bonus to fishing.)
Djinn Restlessness, 6 of 6 (Interaction with Djinn has made your civ impatient with its lack of technology!  You now get an additional .5 per worker when researching stone age techs!)
Net Fishing, 7 of 7 (Allows creation of fishing nets.  Fishing nets cost 1 labor and no resources to create.  Fishing nets are a fishing tool and generate an additional 0.5 food per worker when used from a boat.)
Cotton, 12 of 12 (In any farm, you can farm for cotton instead of food.  The rules and yield are identical to food.  You can only farm one type of resource per farm a turn.  Cotton is a resource that potentially is useful.)
Sundials, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  Also allows research into more advanced techs involving astronomy and astrology.)
Fish Traps, 14 of 14 (This tech provides an additional small bonus to all fishing.)
Seafaring, 1 of ? (research stalled)
Sails, 9 of 11 (incomplete)

Yearning for Answers, 4 of 4 (Your civilization's workers can train to become explorers, which are better versions of the scout from the Exploration tech.  Like scouts, explorers are free spirits and are poor at farming, harvesting, ranching, mining, foraging for resources that are not food or reagents, and researching.  Also, your civ's workers generate an additional 0.25 research points when researching.)
Mathematics, 10 of 10 (Increases logistics by 1.  You get 1 free labor a turn from Mathematics for every 10 labor a construction costs.  Simply note "X labor added from Mathematics" when constructing; it does not cost an action.  You must have at least one worker building the construction to get the Mathematics bonus.  This tech also allows more advanced techs related to Mathematics.)

Techs known to all:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stone Age Houses, (This stone age relic tech allows building of stone age houses.  Stone age houses house 2 workers and cost 2 labor, 2 stone, and 2 wood to construct.)
Stone Age Agriculture, (Allows construction of stone age farms, stone age orchards, and stone age ranches.  Vanilla workers without tools get, on average, 2.5 food working these primitive agricultural buildings, assuming the buildings are located on normal plains.  Farms are used with the 'farm' action, orchards and used with the 'harvest' action, and ranches are used with the 'ranch' or 'butcher' action.  Ranches must have a herd of some type inside to use them.  Herds are captured with the 'lasso' action.  There can only be one of each type of agricultural building in each tile.  All stone age agricultural buildings cost 10 labor and no resources to build)
Stone Age Tools, (Allows construction of crude tools and crude spears.  They cost 1 labor and no resources to make.)
Stone Foraging, (Allows foraging of stone.)
Wood Foraging, (Allows foraging of wood.)
Ore Foraging, (Allows foraging for ore.  The type of ore gathered depends on what kind of ore, if any, is in the tile.  This action tends to produce little ore, but will have to do until some kind of mining is researched to replace it.)
Stone Age Barricades, (Allows construction of primitive stone age barricades.  They cost 6 labor, 3 stone, and 3 wood to make.)
Stone Age Training Fields, (Allows construction of the stone age training field.  It costs 6 labor and 3 wood to construct.  They allow workers to train to become warriors.  Warriors are better in combat than vanilla workers, but are worse at other actions except for researching martial techs.)
Cuneiform or Hieroglyphs, (A more primitive version of writing.  Increases logistics by 1.  Civs can choose one to have.)
Horse-back Riding, (This tech increases the action range of the civ by 1.  Also allows construction of the Stables.  Stables house mounts and allow workers to train to be horse tamers.  Horse tamers can train wild horses to be mounts.  Mounts are used in the action like tools and increase the action range of the worker by an additional 1.  Each mount consumes 1 food a turn.  This tech allows more advanced riding techs involving other rideable creatures.)
Early Smelting, (Allows construction of the smelter.  The smelter allows smelting of 1 copper ore or 1 tin ore into 1 copper bar or 1 tin bar for 1 labor and 1 fuel.  The smelter also allows spending 1 labor and 1 fuel to combine 1 copper bar and 1 tin bar into 2 bronze bars.  The smelter costs 10 labor, 6 stone, and 3 wood to construct.  "Fuel" is some kind of combustible resource, such as wood.)
Stonecrafting, (All civs have become reasonably adept at building with stone.)
The Wheel, 8 of 8 (Your logistics is increased by 1.  You can now construct wooden carts.  Wooden carts cost 2 labor and 2 wood to construct.  Wooden carts give a small bonus to wood and stone foraging, and to any action that involves collection of a heavy material of some kind (for example, mining of ore.).  A wooden cart in combination with some kind of mount or beast of burden increases the action range of the worker that uses it by 1.  Example action use:  "1 worker forages for stone at A1 with 1 crude tool and 1 wooden cart.")
Herbalism, 6 of 6 (Workers can now forage for reagents.  Reagents have healing properties, and might have other uses.  3 reagents can be spent to heal 1 worker.)

Cait Sith

1 Philosopher argues.
1 worker with the Hoe of Discipline, and 2 workers with crude tools, Farm at K-2.
4 disciplined workers research how to make Bō.
2 workers craft 2 crude tools.
1 disciplined Scout with the Seeker's Compass scouts J-1 to reach a 50% exploration rate. {Point me toward unscouted areas.}
1 disciplined worker continues the construction of an Orchard at K-2.[Mathematics +1 Labor]
1 disciplined worker continues to build the Magus Academy at K-1.[Mathematics +1 Labor]
1 apprentice and 1 disciplined worker gather regents at K-2 using crude tools.


5 more turns until we are disciplined, in all our crafts. 3(2?) more until the orchard is complete, and 5 until the Academy is.

At some point in the next five turns, the First Shrine will be built. And right now, it looks like it will go to Blarg, Mabel, and Disci, in that order. We also need to see about improving our housing. Village Planning seems like it will do the trick.

Does that mean I won't get a shrine?

((Well, the catgirls did not build a shrine to the god of cats.))

Title: Re: Gridhood: Aspects of the Divine!
Post by: TricMagic on August 25, 2018, 09:45:28 am

You will get one. It's just going to be a while. We can only build five after all.

Blarg's goes in K-1, obviously. As does Mabel's. God of Metal will get one in the Glittergrove at J-1. If he shows up at some point.

Disci get's one at K-2, to go with the farms. And that leaves a space at K-1 for yours.

Of course, if anyone wants to give us a Windcutter's Axe, that would be appreciated. Or a pickaxe of some sort.


At max, we can currently build six shrines.


There ar also these Mirrors, the Goshintai (http://www.greenshinto.com/wp/2012/02/18/the-circular-mirror-shinto-symbol/)
It seems that they could boost the amount gained while praying at the shrine, depending on its cost. A mirror that boosts the FP rate by 1.5 would likely cost 15-20 FP. More usefully, a basic Mirror that boost FP Gain by 0.5 would also work. Maybe 5-10 FP, meaning 3 FP a turn from a single Miko working at the shrine. Granted, we still have much to do.

Blarg spends some FP to create a talking Zebra it shall appear right next to him in G7 and its name shall be bob, then he spends 5FP to create an artifact called Red 9 it is a small handheld metal rectangle with a wooden handle and a short metal barrel, this item is capable of firing small bits of soft metal at high speeds at whatever its pointed at, these pieces of metal are capable of piercing light armor, this item appears in his hand at G7.

"I think there's been a misunderstanding, I am Keerim, God of Birds. I created that mountain over there for your anscestors back when you guys were just sapient zebras. Don't worry about the Whitwings by the way, my other followers had some trouble with them as well, and I'll make them leave you guys alone too."

Keerim grabs one of the history books ans starts reading (just send me a pm for this, I don't want to make my section of the turn update longer then it already is)

"Thanks for getting the books Gino, can you sort them by time period if they aren't already."
