Exploration's going rather slow.

What are we to do about all these cursed worms, Provost?

I don't know, my friend. Are the scientists looking for a way of controlling or destroying them?

Not at present. Should I order them to change their focus? The loss of the colony pod has the people terrified to explore. We must do something.

No, allow them to continue with what they are doing. We will have to escort all pods after this though. Hopefully this won't turn out to be a major setback.

Scouts report a strange alien artifact on the southern borders.

No alien life forms spotted...but this area is so dry the worms probably need a drink too.

"Let's see what's just over that ridge." The rest of the patrol concurred, and the "patrol-nexus", what other, lesser humans would call the "commander," lead onward to the shoreline.

That was the last thing their collective mind succeeded in thinking coherantly. The terror, which they'd heard of in other communiques, swept over them. They'd walked right into a small nest of Mindworms.

Will they be overwhelmed by the psychic scourge? (Probably, considering they're not Spartans.) Tune in next time, same Cyborg-time, same Cyborg channel!

It's quiet sir.

Yes, too quiet. Things are not moving quickly enough. Damn this resource starved island!

[Comstr]

Sir...Sir....CONTACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!


Hmm..this world is smaller than I thought. Shall it be peace or war?

I keep the Peace. Through Force if needed (and on Planet, it's ALWAYS needed ).

(Hmm, I think I got the 1st City and 1st Bulding done..no worms sighted, and pod poping was lucky).

[i]Ironwood-Zeta-5 recieved information via his technological thingamajig. (sorry, couldn't think of anything better!)

It was a report from the scout unit at the southern edge. It seems they'd encountered a small nest of mind worms. The worms got the drop on them, but they managed to pull together, and suffered only nonfatal injuries.

Sir, it seems as if someone accidentally made premature contact with us.

Surely they know we can't talk until we actually meet? It was in the treaty, rules of engagement.

Sir, I suspect it was an accidental transmission.

Alright, but be wary. They might be on our borders. We need more information.

You forgot to attach the turn

As dor the other problem, I didn't know you couldn't (no mention in the game rules that *I* saw). Please ignore the communicae. I saw your name on the communcation list, so thought I could do it.

Yes, I forgot to put that in the start of this thread. I did mention it in the original call for players, but the original game idea was different from what we're doing in several ways. IMO, "no communicate until contacted" should be generally assumed; but, as I said at the beginning of this thread, I'm a novice, so I could be wrong about what's "generally assumed."

[Comstr]

I *think* I sent the right turn...it's lateso I'm sorry if my tiredness sent the wrong one.

I cancelled my incorrect communications. Sorry about that.

Peace to you all
