I have the turn, but won't be able to play it until this evening, which'll be the middle of the night in Sweden, unfortunately.

With a turn rate like on Sunday - 2 turns each- I think we are doing A-OK!!

[Walt]

2120 to cbn. The roll continues.

I'm vaguely frightened, I just got a complete power graph for the first time, and my next-door neighbor is on top of the heap. And I /know/ I'm going to make SE choices that are going to torque her off...

2120 has passed-- 2121 is winging its way to the cult


And er Walt ?? You are frightened ??-- Did you see how far down on the graph my drones were-- so far down as to be invisible, LOL-- I know the drones start slow but this is crazy.

Foreman cbn read the reports outlining the factions status as compared with the rest of the world. The news was not good as the Drones trailed in all major indicators. The only good news was that, apparently, tech discoveries elsewhere were slowing while the Drones could expect a few more quick discoveries with regard to the basic technologies

turn 2121 to tench


well being second to last with -1 in industry AND economy doens't do much for me either. You all know my strength (the cult). Guess where I am?

Knowhow2 -- I don't know where you are-- The NO-Fungus Flats?? LOL -- we are playing with modified landmarks according to the game start information so who knows what is out there. All I can say is " my kingdom for a rainy square !!"

Year 2121 to Walt.

"Never mind the faction power graphs. Our purpose here is not to dominate Planet, but to live with her. We cannot afford to repeat the mistakes that humans have made back on Earth."

"Yes, yes, that's nice and all that, but good intentions are not enough. We might not aim to dominate Planet, but I can guarantee at least one other faction IS. And I am almost sure that they will not place the same respect on Planet and her resources as we do."

[Walt]

"Er...that'd be me..."

Overheard from the cabinet offices at Drone Central


" . . . . . but I am telling you that the population will not accept a free market so there is no need to research to obtain the ability.Any larger towns will riot unless we invest in expensive infrastructure and police will be useless. DO YOU WANT ANARCHY IN THE STREETS??"

" It would tie the hands of our military. How can we explore if every unit away from home causes undue anguish to the populace. I think we should focus on obtaining better weapons technology to deal with any unknown dangers."

" I speak on behalf of the ministries of trade and the science community. We support the idea of getting the tech that promotes free market. Despite continuing energy restrictions a freer market will boost the economy and will assist badly needed science. We particularly need the science so that some of the factories can move on from former production to other things."

" the municipal planners can accomodate the free market idea. Since we are contining to send colonies around our lands we can plan so that no area becomes subject to unrest. However there are more important technologies that we could immediately use to build much more useful items. I vote that we go for an infrastructure technology"

"My environmental department strongly urges further study of the issue. We have no idea of the environmental impacts of any of these proposals. This world is still unfamiliar to us and I fear that we might be inviting death and disaster. WE have heard rumors that indicate that the planet itself might be alive and it could well react negatively."

An authoritative voice cut across the din. "I have considered all your opinions and believe . . . VROOOOOOOOOOOOM" A former began excavation work outside the cabinet offices and try as they might, the shadowy figure could hear no more.
