Some suggestions

-Groups of villagers teaming up to go exploring

-Villgars actually making friends and rivals

-Searching the ground for rare minerals to increase tech points


Also, It would be allot better to get food easier. That way, you wouldn't have to worry that much about waiting for crops to come up.
