And is it possible to merge it with the other simultaneous thread? (Maybe not).
The opposite happens to me... icons and numbers give me the vibe, a bunch of text boggs me down. Besides, in the text the numbers are written down also.
Yes please. And simple ship ramming animations
Yes, but with textiles I didn't mean the product, but the natural resources you gather to almost inevitably end with textiles, so I used it like an easy to understand category. Maybe the correct name should be (natural) fiber. Also, for some types of food, like wheat, you have to plant, grow, sow, and process it to get bread and beer. Those are manufactured goods, and invented ten, maybe hundreds, of thousands of years after the simplest clothing, as was the process to separate the gathered ores from metals, although yes, they are not "manufactured" since they existed all along.
Textiles indeed comprise an important part of ancient (and contemporary) societies, and adding them to the game would enrich it for sure, but please note it is a manufactured good and not a resource.
