Fair enough. I don't mind slowing down the posting cycle; if we do that I can actually decrease costs for Aspects and Innovations, since I calibrated those to provide a reasonable daily workload.

You mean the cost of adopting new aspects and innovations or the cost of using them?

Cost of adopting- that's the most time intensive area for me, putting together new Aspects/Innovations, considering how to balance them, etc.

Cool. Just remember to pick an Aspect to drop, or upgrade your Divine's Aspect limit.

Upgrading the limit? Does that cost 5 divinity too? How much am I paying total to get beloved?

Upgrading costs just as much as changing an Aspect, yes.

Let me get something straight: I pay 5 divinity to upgrade the limit, then another 6 to get the aspect itself?

That would be correct, yes. Or you pay only five to swap one of your current Aspects for a different one. Or you pay ten and create a new Aspect entirely and adopt it.

Does creating a new aspect upgrade the aspect limit?

Not as such, no. It does give everyone else something to adopt. Otherwise it would actually be cheaper to create a new aspect than to adopt an existing one, provided in both cases you don't want to swap out your aspects.

I guess I could drop glorious. I can barely feed the followers I have now, so I don't need wanderers until I can get a workshop, which I need to build a hoe, which I need to build irrigation furrows.

Alternatively, drop Glorious and pick up Regeneration. Or the aspect to let you spawn new berry groves.

I would get life-blood of men, but I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a dice roll to decide how many bushes I get, which could screw me by giving me 1 berry bush.

Nope, resource patches always come in defined amounts.

Really? How many bushes from life-blood of men? And do they come with berries?

Tempting, but then again, when people start innovating things, I might need a workshop. Plus I'd monopolize all the stone in the region, which could be useful.

As a god? You should be able to do that. However you would be limited to the tribe-to-tribe diplomacy.

Sure. You can speak god to god, after all, and that god could relay your words to their mortals.

There's the update all- apologies for the delay. I was trying to wait until I could update the map, but just decided to kick out the text for what it was worth. I'll look to have the map updated tonight, with any luck. Note that the villages of Baelt, Beo, and Protogeiros will have vanished along with their resources with the coming of the new day.
