Turns of MABB

My yahoo account is working, so we don't need to post the turns here. We could though, just for kicks.

"Congratulations, First Communications Officer Drake. Putting the words 'dot com' at the end of arbormans com frequency seems to have had a positive effect on the transmission status. Rest assured, your brilliance shall not go unnoticed."

[Googlie]

Be aware, though, that the more you attache the more the htread gets bogged down when loading (one of my other games we had to get the cleaner to go in and remove all the old attachments. You'll note that I edited my first post to remove the arborman attachment as it had already been played)

"Commander knowhow2, I demand to know whereabout of the commisioner!"

"Brother Lal is not avaible."

"The men are getting unsettle with all the changes you ordered the last year,sir."

"Brother Lal and I have agreed to change the factions name to 'know-it-alls'."

"Sir, I have to insist meeting the Commissioner."

"Alright. Follow me."

we have uncovered a unity rover, which should prove useful in our exploration. the unknown item we found has been successfully delivered to alpha prime. our scientists are studying it closely in order to reveal clues as to its purpose. a nearby river has been discovered and should aid us in our endeavors. while searching a unity pod, one of our scout patrols has encountered a mind worm boil. most unfortunate.

"Sir. The message on the monolith was decoded. It read:
UNABLE TO ALLOCATE DRAW BUFFER. PROGRAM TERMINATED"

"I wonder what the devil that means?"

"Sir, I have bad news. Apparently the Monolith broadcast a radio message. We think the other factions will receive it."

"Content?"

"Something about temporal experiments."

"Oh no. They will think we are violating the treaty. Pray they understand that such was not our intention at all."

"Worse news, Sir. The Monolith disintegrated, leaving behind nothing but some energy crystals we harvested."

"Today was a bad day for the Drones."

Sir, the message was unclear.

What did you learn?

We think they had trouble with their transmitters or something, something about a temporal reload.

Probably just a mistake. We'll ignore it this time. Other reports?

The new colony reports they have established near that river we saw on the way in. One of the scouts had a near miss with some worms, but she is returning to base for repairs now.

Find out more about these worms, and warn the new base. Why do I have no military units yet! Our position is very vulnerable here, we must be prepared for anything.

I'm sorry, Provost, we will make arrangements to hurry production.

we continue to search for suitable base locations and have found more mineral resources. the scout patrol that encountered the mind worm boil was able to calmly dispose of it, thus eliminating the danger. such is the cyborg way.

the consciousness is content.

Out of respect for our people, every unit is being sent to the monoliths, ancient relics representing Party Solidarity left behind by our alien friends.

2104 to peacekeepers

Report!

Nothing major this year sir. Our scouts have found some resources that the formers might like to exploit. We continue to look for new sites for colonies.

Good. If we're to survive once we make contact with any of the others, we must be established.

Yessir. Some more worms were spotted in the west. One of the scouts nearly died when it opened a pod. They are returning to base.

We need to increase our vigilance.

Research progresses well sir, a breakthrough could happen anytime.

Excellent

"The first breakthrough is near now."
"Excellent"

our unity rover continues to follow the path of the river. status reports indicate that they are moving quickly in a southwesternly direction. the same scout patrol that survived the initial worm attack has encountered a second, different form of native life. it appears to have the ability to launch projectiles. our unit has dubbed it a "spore launcher" and reports that a colony pod is in danger of the fungal projectiles. they prepare to attack.

the consciousness is confident.

explorer olaf delta-12 paused and gazed into the fungus. his cybernetically enhanced eyes zoomed in. there was a movement in the distance. being too far from home to meld with the conciousness, he spoke into a commlink.

"explorer one to headquarters."

"yes, explorer one."

"i am detecting movement to the south. it is a fungal spore launcher, another native life form. a colony pod approximately one mile to the west is in the path of this life form. please advise."

without hestitation, the flat, female voice spoke, "we are ordering the colony pod to move north until the threat is eliminated. are you in any immediate danger?"

"negative. shall i terminate the life form?"

"yes, explorer one. investigate and terminate, if necessary."

"affirmative. explorer one out."

olaf delta-12 began to move toward the fungal spore launcher mechanically. no fear washed over him. no sense of panic seized his heart.

when he heard a sudden noise, he paused and turned in the direction of the sound, zooming in until he saw a tiny bug similar to a cricket of earth sitting a piece of fungus 5 miles in the distance. as he watched, the bug hopped away. it was not logical that this insect would be a threat to the consciousness. he made the decision to continue moving toward the spore launcher.

all of this took him 0.000371 seconds.

A Unity Foil. Excellent. With a better view of the happenings here on Planet, we will quickly surpass our Capitalistic neighbors.

[arborman]

Nothing to report sir.

Very well.
