I realize I didn't tell you where I went yesterday night. Well, imagine that Renianscance scenario in 13th century Europe. Pretty much the same stuff. When I got back I realized I should study up more to make things easier.
Remember how I said I studied gunpowder and electricity? I studied all sorts of things, such as metallurgy too. Well, guess what? I come into a stoneage society of warring tribes. Knowing how to use electricity did me a lot of good there! However, it was a good refresher into the good old days where I was in Sparta. I started with a tribe though. But I trained them similarly; and equipped them best I could. I did figure out how to forge some bronze and iron, which REALLY helped. I ended up with blacksmiths by the third year. I was there a total of about five.
Things were really interesting. Most of the tribes (including mine) were hunter/gatherer. You can only imagine their fitness level! The simple society made my first year of learning the language very easy compared to others. I made it up to them by teaching them how to make better weapons, tools, houses, clothes, ect. The battles were quite something too. 30 of my guys versus well over 100 of others at times. When I left, I had complete conrol of all the land I could see when I stood on this large hill. We were all on a giant plane type area, so a big hill in the middle allows you to see far. It was great!
BUT MY STUDIES DID NO GOOD! I should learn to study in a broader area. Guerilla warfare would do good. If I ever come to a place like this again.
