Your men check the traps and stoke the fire. You bed down for the night. You wake up and smell awful. What now?

Yep. Your people are happy and you have enough food for three days. Your water supply has recently become undrinkable due to large fish deaths. What do you do?

I'll send out three of the most capable men to explore for a new water source.

(By the way, does the tribe numbers include the chief?)

I'll take my knife, and cut some wood and gather some vines and a stone to make a rudimentary hammer.

You cut up some wood and make a hammer. The vines aren't too strong. You need to find something else later.(You don't count in the tribe population) What now?

(Ok, thanks.)

I'll show the hammer to a villager, and have him make more like it for the other villagers. I'll also take my flint, and knock a stone against it to sharpen it. I'll attach that to wood with vines to make a rudimentary axe.

You've got some nice ideas. You show him the hammer and the tribes people get to work making more. You make your axe and you men come back, bloodied. Only two of them make it back. "We were attacked by two sabertooth tigers. We barely got away but Gordal was killed." What do you do?

I stink? I go to the water and wash myself. I look for saponaria leaves to bath with.

I'm still wounded, so I can't explore. I send 3 men to keep searching through the woods, all equipped with wooden lances, and tell them to look for tar.
In the meantime, I'll keep on doing either wooden lances or wooden arrows.

(Why, thank you!)

I'll tell them to set a few men around the camp to watch for it, in case is decides to come. I'll show the axe to the man I originally showed the hammer to. I'll cut down a branch, and cut out a cup at the base to try to make an atlatl.

You show him the axe and set 10 men on lookout for them. You construct an Atlatl in about half an hour. No sign of the tiger. What do you do?
