What does "Next 0.75/action" mean? Also I am currently leaning towards something like:
Gather wood with automaton
Gather food x4
Expand Housing
Innovate - Telescopic Lenses
Send expedition - steam launch
Send expedition - forest

Welcome them into the range of our generator (no food consumption, keep them close, but don't share food or shelter)

The amount of resources you get is reduced to that. So, at 0.75 you need 2 qctions for 1 resource, 3 action for 2 resources, 4 actions for 3.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

I do think we should welcome the tribe in. Besides being 'the right thing to do', they're also an untapped source of local knowledge and additional manpower if we can manage to convince them to integrate.

If you want to do that you might want to make a plan to do that (note: welcoming them as guests costs 1 food, making it unlikely that we can afford to undertake expeditions that cost food). Looking at my plan I seem to have forgotten our free gathering action so:
Gather wood x1+automaton
Gather food x4
Expand housing
Innovate - telescopic lenses
Send expedition- forest
Tribes - welcome into range of generator
This should fit within both our action and resource economy but I would like it if someone else could check it.

I'd like to welcome the tribes in, if only because the half-measure will make them the largest threat to us.

This is much like RulerOfNothing's plan, but instead welcoming the tribe fully and changing the expedition destination to the steam launch to pick up its irreplaceable steam core - it will likely be washed away with the coming storm, while the forest's resources (mostly food, it sounds like) will probably be more intact.

Actions:
Gather wood (1+automaton) (+2w)
Expand Housing (-3w)
Innovate - telescopic lenses (-1s)
Gather food x4 (incl. free) (+4 food)
Send expedition - steam launch (-2 food)
Welcome the tribe into our homes as guests (-1 food)
Which will leave us with 1 extra temp food stockpiled as a reserve for next turn.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.
