Ok my balance tools tell me that animals do not produce manure with enough probability. Good to know, good to know.

Version 1.8 (now on experimental) adds a new Boon choice step, at the start of each village!
This spices up early game, trying to make each village more unique from the start! New boons favour fishing, harvesting, and making many Pips!

Ok I've been revising other parts of the Agepedia, I'm moving all Elder details to separate areas as the new elders had a LONG list of stuff!
Much cleaner isn't it?
