The Hawt Cuisine of the Crisp Packet
Hello all! I'm gonna be running a little game... Think of it like Civilizations, but in 8,000 BC! You will start with a tribe of a couple hundred, and attempt to grow from there.
What goes on in this RP game?
As I stated before, You will decide the fate of a tribe and how the develop into the world. The narrator will choose causes and things may happen to your tribe. This can vary from, expanding your tribe, natural disasters, or regional crises. Most of these things are determined by a series of rolls to keep it fair, though, stupid actions will of course, have consequences.

Can I create a large tribe from the start?
No you can not. The narrator chooses how many people you have depending on your actions. Also you may encounter natural disasters around your area of your tribe. There are two main forms of tribes:
- Settled Tribe
- Nomad Tribe
Each one has their advantages and disadvantages.
With the Settled tribe, you can choose five regions to begin with but you are static, You can't move, only expand outwards. You have more people but are prone to war. You are also much more prone to natural disasters and raids from other unknown nomad tribes. A Settled tribe starts off with 5,000 people.
On the other hand, the Nomad tribe may only choose three regions, but you are able to move around. It is harder to expand. You have less people but less prone to war. You are also less prone to natural disasters and raids from unknown nomad tribes. A Nomad tribe starts off with 3,000 people.
Technology, What can I have to start with?
Everyone will start with the basics. Which means, basic farming and animal husbandry, wood and stone tools, clay pottery, simple housing, as in tents, caves, crude houses of clay or stone. Technological advance will be determined by the type of nation you play, the events and lastly be granted by me (also you may sometimes be request advancements). Technology, to tell, will very unlikely stay monopolized by a single nation, as with the encounter of other nations, with trade, people travel and interact with each other. Sooner or later, a neighbor of yours may learn a technology you discovered. Or sometimes he may discover it independently from you. Technologies may be shared and taught from one tribe to another but for two tribes to discover their boundaries need to clash. For a rough idea of what is and isn't already invented, Look here. Please note: I know it says blades in there. You would not have access to anything other than the most basic stone tools.
I want to expand my tribe.
It is simple to expand your tribe. You need to gain 1,000 people depending on the events by the game moderator. You need 1,000 people to sustain another region. If your numbers drop for what ever reason in a region there may be economic and a crisis on your hands to sustain that region.
A Nomad tribe needs an extra 2,000 people to claim a region. They may move one county per turn. The same concept is stated above for the Settled tribe.
War
There may be wars yes. Make sure you keep a mature mind when in an active war. You cannot simply force all of your members in your tribe to participate in a war. Only 25% of your populace may take part in such wars. (Unless there are cultural or technological reasons otherwise)
Map
You may pick any tile on this map to start. For the best results, don't overcrowd each other, but don't go off into the middle of nowhere either.
