The Starsingers are quite the isolationist bunch, the question is whether or not it should stay like that...

Ah, Novas? As a rule of thumb, resources/aspects/miracles etc. should always have a one day delay between adoption and use. To prevent things like a Divine being attacked and suddenly adopting Bloody-Handed to ward off the attackers, and stuff like that. So you'll have to wait until tomorrow for Regeneration, though Regeneration itself can be used, and the resources harvested the same day.

Another thing actually Novas- in order to adopt a new Aspect you either have to trade it for an existing one, or enhance your Divine's Aspect cap. I put your Divinity towards enhancing that cap, but tell me if you want to exchange instead.

Nah- might as well keep everything turn by turn as much as possible.

I'll look in to getting my post out in a few, then update in a couple of hours. For the record :P

I believe they are.

G-Tech! Can new players start with more stuff? They seem to drop out pretty quick.

That's not a bad idea. What would you suggest?

Can you also make a map key, or just tell me what all the symbols mean? Right now it is impossible to decipher it. Also, how do resources spawn? I am preparing an app now, will be posted soon after my questions are answered.

Hmm, not a bad thought, but I like stable food sources. Six pop and six berries with one growing sapling sounds good.

Well, most of the symbols are straightforward. All the crossed boxes vaguely colored brown with brightly colored patches are dwellings of the various tribes- the bright colors indicate their owner. Beyond that there are springs and berry bushes in close proximity to villages, which look like green bushes with purple berries and, well, light blue pools of water. Then there are map location resources like trees (green blobs without berries) and wheat (lines of yellow and orange running diagonally on a field). That should cover just about everything.

What do you mean by resource spawning?

How do new trees and rock outcroppingss grow? If my village is too far way from them, can I not build anything? If the resources are exhausted, how do new ones appear and spread?
