"Cr*p" I say
"Quickly, light torches and grab your spears, we must set a perimeter." I say to my men.
As I know animals fear fire, I look for grass or weed to make a perimeter of fire around the place.

It's heavy but your men can handle it and bring it back to camp. What do you do now?

That would do nothing but trap you inside. The velociraptors can run fast enough and jump over the flames. But you do light torches and grab your lances. They will soon be there. What else will you do?

I'll cut its longest teeth out with my knife, and take a rough stone and sharpen them into spearheads.

You do all that and get two spear tips to show for it. What now?

Ill take another smaller, longer stone, and try to bore a hole through the bottom sides of each spear tip, and hollow out the bottom. Then I'll take two branches, and cut a hole near the end in each one. Then I'll tie each spear tip to each branch with vines and lining up the holes, making two spears.

I disregard that thought shaking my head, and think that perhaps our stored food could prove useful as distraction... "Quickly, gather the food." I say to my men and we place it so the raptos will see it, while we hide behind whatever may be useful, but withouth loosing our sight of the creatures.

You take a long time making them but theyre made. You have an hour of daylight left. What do you do?

You throw out your food as bait and it seems to draw their attention. What do you do?

I'll just have everyone go to sleep for the day. Not much left to do with an hour.

You can do things in the night you know. It's just a bit more dangerous. You all bed down. You wake up feeling horribly stiff from sleeping on the ground again. What do you do?

You could carry much more if your men had the proper equipment. *hint hint*

It only takes an hour to outfit everyone with a vine bag. You scrape up some leaves and moss and whatever else that's soft and so do your men. You create some bedding and any injury you receive will now heal faster. What will you do now?

(Hey, thanks for adding technology. I was just going to ask. By the way, what do we have for shelter?)

I'll take a hunting party of 10 men with atlatls and two men with sabertooth spears where the tigers were.
