Angels MY 2151-2160

[GeoModder]

I had to download 3 times before it succeeded. So nobody please thinks there are 'infiltrators' operating here.

[Kataphraktoi]

hehe i will download later at home.looks OK

im sure the players on the other team would decline to use that kind of info if they had access.or,i wouldnt.but everyone seems to be on the level here surely there are enough ways to cheat as it is anyway,without having infiltrators

2158

• We have a Morganic visitor - Gator Boat - a probe team in canoes. Near Heaven's Gate. However, we do have a probe team in that base, so there goes Morganities the possibility of your infiltration of our faction now. Unless they attack, but we have the same morale - both teams are hardened. This brings the issue of security. What do you think of funally bulding many security probe teams, 0-1-1 probes? Cost around 2 rows - i will confirm that. We kinda need them, if we want to stay not ifiltrated.
• There was a forest spread near Kahlua Probing - on time, since a new worker can work there.
• Our probe team actions, I guess transport goes north, however i think morganities are there. Probe foil goes to the last fungus tile. Action in around 2159!!!
• Formers, more roads, some farm, a sensor. I propose to relocate two crawlers near Hercules station - just better gain. Also relocate a crawler near Kody cryptor - we get one mineral more.
• Fifth citizen can become Librarioan - 5 (five!!!) lab points gain. I think it is worth it. We build children creshe there, so till we get that facility we really do not need nutrients there anymore. Pop boom will take care of this.
• Overall everything goes ok. In 2 turns we get new Children creshe in EM, rec tanks in RPS.
• We may hurry network node in Snowflake's Heaven for 64 EC. We currently have 106 EC. There are 2 crawlers for 3 EC/turn there just to avoid drone riots. We could use them for minerals better. And more lab points will be welcomed too.
• Illuminatus told that probably in about 2 turns we get IntInt and EcolEngeenering. Thus then we can build some police units and upgrade all scouts to that.

We can't get a second probe team in Heavens Gate in time as far as I can see it, so it's no use bringing the probe transport south again. Letting them continue has my vote.

But I agree on building a few foot probes now, to protect the most vulnerable bases (coastal ones).

Also, I see that your bringing a crawler one tile west near Herc Station. Why not on the rocky solar tile instead? Could give extra energy...

[Kataphraktoi]

the security probes sound good,infiltration is something to avoid

bout time on that transport!!

It's because of drones. Having 30% psych we need one doctor in Heaven's Gate. Thus we lack a nutrient. In order to avoid it the crawler makes 1 nutrient now - the one I wish to bring to the tile where there are two nutrients, so we accumulate for the emergency case. When Rec tanks are done in HG, then we can switch it to something else. Also a farm is going to be there, but it takes time also. Rec tanks cost now 92 EC, just too expensive now imho.

[Mart]

On the other hand - would Morganities risk attacking our probe team? I think they may not, but who knows. But it would be like declaring a war.

we can always switch rec tanks there to foot probe still. and hurry it. still time to do it.

[ForesterSOF]

Agree with security also.

I checked the turn (yeah I know ). I don't understand some of the terraforming. A forest on a rolling rainy tile near SH? Did the forest just grow on it?
And what are the plans on the just roaded flat rainy tiles next to it? Future farms for pop booming?
Why the road to nowhere on top of the mineral mountain? Future base site perhaps?

So in the future response from the Gaians might be a lot slower with Illu leaving. Too bad, he did kept us informed when necessary.

yes, can be harvested when needed

not decided yet

yes, i have that in mind, there are forests there on the river too.
and also, crawlers may be put there, even if outside the base radius, sensor is nearby.

[Mart]

Yet another thing, on some tiles, which are rolling forests may be an option to allow to overgrow fungus. If we can get rid of fungus this way, i think having forests in places where farms may be created later is an option. I think of putting forest north from a monolith near Kahlua Probing, just to get rid of those three fungus tiles there. Also north from Snowflakes Heaven - if we can get forests there by spreading over fungus that is better. It is ridge terrain, should be changed into better terrain as fast as possible.

[GeoModder]

on all accounts.

[Hercules]

Just signing in. Didn't expect the turn so quick. The Morgan probe ship may also be dual purpose: to probe given the opportunity or to establish contact without the pacifism thing while still in FM.

This counts as contact so have we a problem with a treaty, even though we regard them as the main threat.

[Kataphraktoi]

what does pacifism have to do with contacting us?

Does it mean that we can start diplomacy with Morganities?

I think we may sign treaty. I incline to put Spartans no lower in the threat level than Morganities now. Spartans appear to have some good strategy. Others will probably sign treaties too. At least we can do it for the time being.

Also, does anyone know, why Illuminatus withdraw from the game? It is definitely not a good turnout of things...
