Turns 2161- 2170

[Mart]

I think the rover may go east for early Hive warning. As we talked before.

Re infiltration of a Pacted human faction. According to my simulation, I just started a fast 2 human multiplayer and played it myself. It works We can go for Pact, then succesfully infiltrate Gaians, and after we break Pact infiltration remains.

And below is proposed probe action. Sorry for moving the transports by copy and paste, the screenie is not from endsave but midsave.

In 2166 we can choose go for Gagarin Memorial or Spartans.
Action in 2167, with the same possibility of retreat as in ZZT Morganic base

If we choose to go for Spartans, we have to go though into fungus near fungal tower, may be risky, but then our probe team can move 2 tiles when disembarking.

2167 it has to just only enter that forest with river - all 2 move points.

2168 We can choose which base to try.

Also note - important - if Saprtans do not build any new base there, all the time till 2168 we will be outside any base radius. Important.

Thought you would come up with this plan... it looked to obvious to miss out.

[GeoModder]

Btw, I propose to move that rover to 28.52 (the nutrient tile). Reason is that it is already on the border then.

Edit: and the turn after it can make a quick move on Hive territory before running back to the forested tile at 29.51.

[GeoModder]

This is what I mean (quick visual):

If no-one comes online in time and comments on it, I'll move like this and post the morgan turn then.

[Mart]

looks ok.

[GeoModder]

Btw, can you confirm that there should be 2 librarians in Enigma Machine?

When I opened the turn somehow the base governor went on and changed production and specialists.

I seem to recall two librarians, and starting a tree farm in that base. That brings us to +2 red minerals and 14 turn for next research.

(why not a tree farm in Kahlua as well, since that base has +7 red minerals?)

And I've found why you have 15 minerals and I had 14 minerals in Kodycryptor per turn, I had put a worker on that energy seatile, and you placed it on that river hilly tile.
We're missing out on 2 energy that way, you know... Perhaps change it next turn.

[Mart]

Yes, I made 2 librarians in EM.
About KC, it is hurried for 15 production, so i do not know. Tree farm in KP? Might be a good idea. It gives 50% economy, and KP has a lot of energy too.

[GeoModder]

Ok, I'll change production in KP to a tree farm then (might be a good idea anyway with the upcoming borehole there), and post the turn.

[GeoModder]

The new endsave.

Edit: attachment removed.

[Mart]

Have you moved the rover?
Maybe you posted not the correct save?
The rover east from HG has not been yet moved this turn so it can use its two move points

[GeoModder]

Damned all those files with similar names!

Yes, the turn is ok, but appearantly my zip file didn't override your 2164end save.

Here is the correct one:

[Hercules]

So is the turn posted or not.

[Hercules]

I must admit I prefer the supply crawler in KP atm in order to have a higher production rate for the tree farm after.

Tree farm requires another 93 mins (7 rows, 6 with rush).
We can rush the supply crawler next turn and then we can produce tree farm for 6 rows - 5 with rush.

End result, quite similar but with extra crawler.


Rover moved as suggested.

[GeoModder]

No, turn is not posted yet.

I'm ok with a crawler, but using it on a forest when finished will get us an even higher red mineral account in KP, and it's already 7...
