Water storage supports power and food in Timberborn

A game settlement's dependence on stored water introduces the historical connection between water reserves, food supplies and power.

Notes

The Timberborn settlement needs as much stored water as the terrain can accommodate. Water storage also preserves the settlement's ability to obtain power and support food production. That dependence is explicitly connected to a recurring historical problem: managing water supports activities well beyond immediate drinking needs. The game provides the example, without identifying a particular historical reservoir or society.
