So this isn't going very well. Talk about backfiring. Let's do some recapping. Our brave warrior was born:

He went on a little trek and then, uh, disaster struck.

NONONONO. You have got to be kidding me. This is not happening right now. Well, Gristle McThornbody survived, but not with a lot. Like, just barely survived. Lewwyn and I chatted, and decided to move him onto the jungle (towards pin) instead of flat ground. Then we spent a turn healing a bit because we're terrified of losing this guy to another animal - I've seen quite a few already. So, Lewwyn, thoughts on what to do with this guy next?

We should chat soon.
Also, here's a picture from a couple turns ago - we're going all-in on the unorthodox start.

Yeah yeah okay we're opening warrior-WB-settler. We're figuring on settling immediately for copper and using that for a real wave in case this warrior doesn't get anywhere. We're committed, might as well see it through.

This turned out to be remarkably prophetic.

Yeah, two for two I guess. But wow does that suck.
... I guess that means being Commodore takes more skill (or luck) than it looks.

Commodore is definitely a very lucky man.

I think he got lucky a couple times early on and learned the wrong lessons. Which qualifies more as unlucky.

Only if his luck ceases at some point.

Sorry, I've been moving apartments the last couple days and haven't been able to do anything beyond pb13.
 Of course the warrior. Of course the Bear. We had no homework so we had to fight the bear. Of course.
Do we press on or try to rest up? If there is another barb the warrior probably dies. I see you've already rested in place at least once based on the 5% fortify... The turns on this game are moving way too fast.
Yay for the WB>Settler build though, gotta get that copper. Anyone want to take a guess where it might be?

With the health that your warrior is at right now, I think he'd have odds in the off chance his scout is around to defend his capitol which would make this the saddest warrior rush in RB history.
