You were supposed to pick two things that your tribe or whatever started out with. While most seemed to pick things like writing and agriculture I took taming horses and metallurgy. My people with their cavalry and metal weapons then simply moved in on those with writing, agriculture and the like and took them over thus gaining them.
I'm always still in trouble again

There once was a video game that was essentially D&D ... in space. I played it in one setting for what was likely 16-18 hours straight.

But that was because it was my first (and only) game. The guys that played regularly could go all night easily - and, if memory serves, once played for nearly forty-eight hours. Game was called on account of college."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot
