  • Yang Goes Native - tracking thread

    It is a little known fact that The Chairman planted the seeds (and the NanoRust) that led to the physical breakup of the Unity, but not before he had planted the seeds of rebellion, the tastes of greed or lust, threats of blackmail, whatever it took to bind some of the finest specialists of the various factions to him to work his dark will. Together, they managed to surreptitiously launch a number of Pods well before and without the mayhem attending on the final crash. They were able to remove some of Zak's finest equipment with which a few corrupted colleagues of Zak and a few of Yang's former Gaian supporters were able to create a retrovirus which allowed the Chairman to insert his own DNA into that of the Native life found on Planet.

    With this retrovirus, his extra Pods and equipment and his headstart on Planet, the Yangster was able to establish his faction with their unholy hybrid minions in some of the choicer locations on Planet. They are pretty well established, so beware, be nice and be somewhere else (if you can). Of course, the virus somehow found its way out of the labs and so now these smarmy Yanglettes of various kinds may be found almost anywhere on Planet if you are unlucky enough to look in the wrong places. It almost makes dealing with the real Yang a pleasure.

    Good luck and have fun.

    If you are going to engage in role-playing dialogue, feel free to use either this thread or to start another for that purpose.

    The Colonists:

    Gaia - duMa - at
    Hive - Chairman Yang (Himself)
    University - knowhow2 - at
    Morganites - Claw919 - at
    Spartans - DCole78- at (replaced) - KrysiasKrusader at
    Believers - tfs99 - at (replaced) - Vader Jr. - at
    Peacekeepers - Arnathalon - at (replaced) - Mongoose - at

    The rules are the usual, as spelled out in the original thread - communications and negotiations are subject to first meeting in the game - the setup is "average" (modified to give Yang a decent chance) and you can send the problems, complaints and/or kudos to me. If you need a replacement, feel free to advertise or whatever and I will supply the password if necessary and/or play a turn or two to keep things going. The game year is now 2104, allowing for password setup and for some other technical things beyond my ken, but there has not been that much action going on behind the scenes, so don't worry about that; save your worries for unexpected visits by the minions in blue.

      Awesome job, johnd! Thanks!

      Turn sent to Provost Knowhow2 of the University.

      Gaian settlement records in transmission. Communications channels spotty.

        thanx JohnD!

        Perhaps duMa got the wrong email or sent it to the wrong email. anyway, I just emailed him so that he could resent the turn to me.

        What would a fine SMAC game be without its early struggle.....

                I heed your Warning Sign.

                But I will not Listen

                I am Miriam of the True Believers.

                We have the POWER to conquer all of Chiron and place this wretched world under THE LORD's feet.

                Our p-i-t-s (priestesses in training) will soon be ready to take their rightful place and when they do they shall UNLEASH the Fire of God.

                Yea, perhaps Conquest is NOT the True Path to Ultimate Victory on Chiron.

                My Spirit is Uneasy.

                We must bide our time and combine forces to squelch the BLUE threat first.

                Join the drive to put down the BLUE MENACE!

                Miriam off

                Ted on

                Peace out dudez ... Ted S.

                    crap well the turn is now to you, just got it finished sorry.

                    As Miriam finished her statement and was about to step into her escape pod a rather stunning black haired woman standing next to a pod of her own began to laugh quietly at first but then louder until Miriam turned to look at her. "I don't know what warning you speak of, it is a well known fact that Yang and a few escape pods have gone missing. You don't need a sign from above to put two and two together. So he has a head start on us so what? I am Santiago leader of the Spartans and we plan to survive! We will build a society on the principles of honor and limited government, where the right to bear arms will be protected! We will ally with you if the need arises but know we will always be watching and any move to take away our rights or force your medival religon on us will be met with extreme force. We are the spartans and we will survive!!

                        Morgan looked out over the barren landscape upon which his pod had landed. Sighing deeply, he ordered his Colonists to separate, hopefully in search of hospitable terrain upon which a flourishing organization could hopefully be founded.

                        A young Scout approached him. "What orders, CEO?"

                        Morgan smiled. "Go out. The responsibility lies solely on your shoulders, Adam, to find new ground so that we may expand. Scout only - do not engage any enemy. I don't want to lose you in some goddamned ambush."

                        Morgan watched him go, and took out his Visclear device, scouting the surrounding terrain. Clearly, this was not going to be the immediate ramp-up to profitability that he'd hoped.

                        Turn sent to Dcole!

                            Santiago furrowed her brow as she read the latest report. This just didn't make sense. She had expected some trouble from the native life forms, but this pusedo mystical nonsense that David one of her best scouts had reported was ridiculous. Yes the mass of cells he brought in was chock full of bullet holes, she had to get her scientists working on better weapons continuing to use these relics from old earth was just stupid, but anyone could see it couldn't have been a threat and certainly not done the things David claimed! Just then the door chimed "come in" said Santiago. "David, please sit down"
                            "I'd rather stand, if you don't mind" replided David.
                            He's changed Santiago thought, he's always been brash but never like this. Furrowing her brow she ignored his breach of protocol "I've been reading your report, and I have to say it is most interesting. Now that you've had an entire day to recover from the experience do you still claim that this is accurate?" she asked holding the report out to him. David stood stock still and replided "yes it is accurate" "You saw yourself being ripped apart by an incredible monster and after being stunned in fear for a few seconds you fired and killed the mass of worms that you brought back?" "Yes mam"

                            Raising her eyebrow Santiago continued "well after you have rested go out and continue exploring the maps you sent back were most interesting" "Of course mam" "You are dissmissed David" "yes mam" replided David and then didn't move. Both Santiago and David stared at each other for a moment silently. Before Santiago spoke in a much less formal voice "David I have worked with you for 10 years now on earth and one year on planet if you say that this happened and wasn't just battle field fatique then I believe you" "That was all I needed to here mam" replided David as he left the room. Santiago stared at the door for a moment after he left, then shook her head monsters she thought, HA!

                            Bring on the next turn peacekeepers! It is so much fun trying to figure out ways to write a story without giving you information that might help you. Enjoy!

                              It's been a few days now, and I've noticed that Arnathalon hasn't posted in this thread at all. Does he/she still have the turn?

                              Arnathalon - if you're reading this, please send "turn sent" notices here, so we know who to gang up on and beat senselessly when the turn is delayed. Thanks!
