* YouRequireMoreVespeneGas: There are a lot of kinds of resources in this game. Logs are required for every building, and they can be refined into planks or paper, which in turn can be refined into other materials. Beavers also need food and water, and there are a lot of crops they can grow; some can be eaten directly, while others need to be prepared first. Each faction has a different way to reproduce; the Folktails have a chance to give birth at night if you have at least two beavers and at least one empty bed, while the Iron Teeth grow babies in vats using a small amount of basic resources. Finally, far away from the starting point on every map, your beavers can scavenge scrap metal from human ruins.
