YEAR 5-6


      the 2 nomads in year 5 will add a tiny iron mine.the iron will give me some building options.i have a plan to send workers to collect the stone and iorn ore. there is lots more of it then trees around us.to store, it i added Slink's industrial market.an old mod but works quite well.beside it,i build the stone gatherer.this will give the bannies time to clear logs and food. with heavey rocks out of the way,it will be easier to clear fields later.the mineral,clothing and tools are raised.this way we are ahead on supplies.the bannies will help each other when they get caught up.

      in year 6,the 2 nomads will move near the stone gatherer.1 is able to start clearing stone.once their house is finished,the iron gatherer can be built.
       a merchant brings friesian cows.we take 4 and pass on the berry seeds.the cows will stay in the holding pen while a 30x30 pasture is fenced.

       the education level did fall below 50% with the last nomad group.the nomads were sent to the quarry and mine.there is children growing up that aren't educated either. 1 has took over a wheat field and that is down 100.2 took over making clothes and tools but they can keep up.even if the uneducated workers move a little slower,the marble and iron will pay off.the blacksmith and tailor spend most of thier time helping as laborers.wanting to conserve the stone,we are using iron ore tools.there may be productivity losses if you figure in the materials. as long as everyone has a coat and tool and is busy,we don't worry.

Thank you!

That hut or tent what we call "Same kåta" looks great. I had to look up your name "goahti" and that's the name of the building in the language of the North Sami people. I would keep that name. It doesn't take much of the difficulty away from the "survivor" start. When you once know, how to make it, the biggest thrill is gone. My guess is that "Ironman" on harsh with "survivors" will have enough of this "thrill", you speak about, even if you can build these "Sami tents" as Google translate says in English.

I may have some new findings. I haven't played much this weekend. The children were here, but they are gone now, so I can continue the latest "start up game". I'm pretty used to starts now. Maybe this one is even a "keeper". I was curious on this "min food for happiness" thing, so in this game I really try to give my Bannis as many different kind of foods as possible. I buy as much different kind of food I can afford, also salt and sugar and make salted meat and jam. In other games I normally salt, smoke or roast meat, here I try to make all at the same time. It doesn't always work, but often they have more than 4 different kind of food in their homes.

Look at the picture, what happened! I'm surprised! I didn't know, that you could reach 5 stars without church and without inn. OK, it's just one person and it's not all the time. But this is new; I haven't seen it before. I'm curious to see what will happen, when I build a church and an inn.

This game is "Ironman" with a "Shepherds" start. I've cut in the settings. Same mods as before.

I’d also like if you made all the buildings with grass roof separately, they look so good! I’m already using the cabins and that tiny storage shed.

I can make a single mod for quarry recultivation. But can be that it will not really match the vanilla terrain and not updating an existing quarry.
