Description:
|
| A House supports
up to four villagers, military units, or boats. You must
have enough houses before you can create new units. If
a House is destroyed, you do not lose the units it supported,
but you must build new houses before you can build new
villagers, military units, or boats. |

increases hit points and decreases construction time. |
History
The provision of shelter is one of the basic necessities
of life, in addition to food and clothing. Shelter increased
in importance when humans expanded their range farther
away from the equator in the wake of the receding ice
sheets and into climates of wide seasonal variation. Growing
human populations quickly occupied the few natural shelters
available in these areas. The provision of man-made shelter
made existence in challenging and variable climates possible.
Without houses, year-round populations could not have
increased beyond minimums.
