For a simulation centered on a village under siege, the most impactful features focus on the tension between resource management defensive strategy Here are a few ideas to make the simulation feel alive: 1. The "Fog of Rumor" (Intel System)
The simulation of a village targeted by barbarians offers a nuanced understanding of the dynamics of ancient conflicts.
