Maybe I would add few things, but everyone should learn by himself. I think it is more fun when you are trying to learn a new tribe by yourself. Here is another printscreen of one game that I played on Green Mauritius. The game was not perfect. The most painful problem was water shortage 40 minutes before the end (you can see the slow down on the graph) but I really like the result anyway. Very close to some results I am able to reach while playing Frisians. Attachment: image/jpeg Top Quote

Funny you should say that, as I was posting I was mulling whether or not I should start the thing with a big *SPOILER ALERT* warning! It is true that exploring a system is just as much fun as exploring a map. I do insist on good documentation however. That's important that players aren't forced to trial and error how a mechanic actually works because the help file is wrong or misleading. That just causes frustration and drives people away.

Now i have nearly completed this Page , only open tribes column edit . Thank you for putting the list together. I did the edit by myself, if that is what you wanted. I updated the main page too. As for me, it looks fine now. Edit I: I still decided to make few changes. I also changed the category names in the main table. I find it better now. You can check it out and reformulate according to your taste. Edit II: Another thing, I see you still use old names for "Leaf Gatherer's Hut" and "Chicken Farm". I would also replace signs "+" for "AND" instead of "*" and "x" for "OR" instead of "+". Edited: 2025-01-02, 20:38 Top Quote

The Hunting camp does say it produces meat but it forgot croc skins. It does show Sewing as a output though. Just the ware is missing. And man oh man, how many jungle marshes does one HC need? I have 2 JM's and still nothing trained past attack 1. Did just stop the Hunter House so that all crocs used for training (got enough of the other wares for training). That's how I noticed the skins in HC help, wanted to make sure they prod. skins too. -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote

I can try to fix it but I am not sure whether I will be successful. Thank you for letting me know, I didn't know this. And man oh man, how many jungle marshes does one HC need?

That's how I noticed the skins in HC help, wanted to make sure they prod. skins too. It really needs experience. I learned by myself while testing too. I usually build three jungle marshes for one hunting camp when the HC should work on 100%. If I want one additional hunter's house , I count one JM more. Top Quote
