So do I know how many years it will take to have a fully grown breadfruit grove?

How would you know that after studying them for a single year?

Mechanics try their hardest to follow realism, save where that would be too harsh :P

Don't patronize me! I live in the Amazon!
But I'm guessing comprehension means access to Cultivation so let's get that working so I can move to copper smithing and then getting one of my big goals ready.

I do feel like this is a pretty nice version of the tribal stage. I do recall the previous version everybody suffering so much that we begged G to go to city-state to spare us of the ensuing disaster that would've come had we stayed.

If I assign children with a simple project (for example, Wheat Comprehension), can any results come from it? Or do they not have any Research abilities at all until 12?

Sure - but keep in mind that these are still young children. The main benefit they are getting is training in their chosen profession, not goods for the tribe. Their contributions are quite marginal.

Ah, so they've got a research multiplier of like 0.1 or something. Nice. :p

I wonder if there's even a point of me having medicinal herbs this version. Not only do they struggle to have kids, but when they do someone always comes close to dying.

Then you have people who don't even try and they have kids no issue.

Headsup for everyone: after multiple complaints, cereal crops are being rebalanced. They will be notably less effective to gather from, reflecting their undomesticated status in this era. If you have been relying on those crops for your food source, you should consider alternatives.

At least you don't have to wait like several years to get breadfruit.

Oh they’re still a significant boon. Just not “automatic transition to the Bronze Age” tier.

I’m aiming for at least a generation or two before I contemplate any timeskip, really. Potentially more if folks stay active.

Considering my school is now making me quarantine for two weeks once I get to school, shouldn’t be a problem on my end.

Calculated Risk was taken.. but RNGsus punished me for my arrogance. Hopefully it doesn't turn for the worst. If this happened in the last region I was settled in, there probably wasn't enough food around to keep an ill member alive.

Also, with the various wandering bands out there, its only a matter of a few decades before we run into one of the settled tribes. Or at the very least one of their scouts come across us or our previous encampments.

Once I have a farm up and running, I'll be scouting like crazy - so there's that.

Part of me is wondering if having two warriors instead of a scout and warrior was a good decision, but hopefully the wolfhounds will help even that out a bit.

It killed me to skip out on scholar.. but it does mean that I get to use my special bows and still have a worker.. workers can be life savers. Though, this nomadic band thing is quite interesting compared to having a single, really over powered character.

I like it quite a bit. I'm hoping the warfare bonuses will even out against the tribes greater technological prowess, especially since only a few people seem to have any warriors at all.
