Mesnoth's Post:(1) First I'd like to teach the tribe to make woven "fish traps" that are able to catch fish and crustatians in the water near the island. They'll have to be weighted since the Mansa floats, but that means they'll also be easy to get to the suface, just untie the rocks from the bottom and they float up! This is the technology I'm talking about:

I'll give the vision to the group so I'll spend the 9 for a mass vision, I figure it won't be much more than that because my population isn't larger than it was first turn.
(2) I'm going to spend a few faith points to guide predators and large dangerous animals away from the feilds during the upcomng turn. Without good carving tools even sharp spears are a bit beyond my people and we lost knife making last turn because this island lacks the stones for it. I'm going to have to come up with some better way to protect my people but for now this will work.
(3) As the food supplies increase I want to spend points to increase the fertility of the people this turn and make sure to breed a tall strong race with no negative genetic conditions. The resulting children should all have perfect eyesight, a resistance to tropical disease, and be perfectly fit, naturally strong, and attractive. They may be african but I also like long black hair like asians have rather than that short curly stuff.
