turn 2120 to Mark13

Cha Rynn looked at her small group of advisors.

"Alphonse reports coming across a second Alien base, four clicks from the first. I instructed him to pull back and await events. In doing so he encountered a monolith, undoubtedly being worked by the base operatives for food, minerals and energy. He has taken residence there and has undergone a lifecycle uplift of some sort, which pleases him immensely.

"Our Rover squad, in hastening to the first Alien base, encountered a terraforming crew at work. I ordered their elimination which was done successfully with minimal damage to the rover.

"However it appears that these Aliens are stronger than we thought originally. Two bases at least, and there may be more. I think a change in tactics might be in order. Rather than hunt and destroy, perhaps our mindworm and Rover squad could more profitably expend their efforts in exploring just how vast this continent is, and how widespread these Aliens are, and if in so doing we encounter and subdue some more of the native wildlife, so much the better.

Your thoughts?"

All nodded their assent.

"So be it," Cha Rynn replied. "I will pass on the orders to our units."

From Captain's Personal Diary
20 years...
and no trace of human kind. Only scraps and wreckages...
Today morrnig I have ordered to found a new base, called Deadman Tavern, my first base on the dry land...
It was a difficult decision and a sort of treason of my hopes...
but our society has suffured enough and the resources aren't sufficient, for now. The growth of our bases is very slow...
Chiron is the last chance for the human kind or its grave 4 light-year far from home?

2121 to Mark13

Cha Rynn regarded the small crowd. These meetings were becoming more and more sombre as the years passed.

"Today, my friends, we have suffered one of our most grievous losses to date on this wilderness adventure. The valient crew and colonists of the Sporerunner Sanctum Colony Convoy was obliterated when their paths crossed that of the rogue Alien scout patrol still circulating in our territories. We grieve their loss.

"In retribution, when Alphonse encountered an undefended Alien base earlier today, I gave permission for it to be destroyed. We were successful, and in the doing diverted 29 energy credits to our accounts.

"Small recompense, I know.

"Likewise our valient Rover squad has destroyed the farming endeavours of the Alien headquarters.

"More and more I am convinced that this blight must be expurgated from Planet.

Planet's will be done."

Jacques De Carufel · January 24, 2001, 16:37

If you havent received 2124.. I would definitely need to send it to you again...

Tought that Vultur had been holding the game when he sent 2124 again and which I had already played...

Anyway, I'll check in a few hours from now and should still have your (Rynn's) turn...

My last played turn is 2123, played on Jan 15th, and my last saved .zip file is mark13's turn of the same year, sent on that day.

He sent to Xwaste on the 16th

Is Jacques sitting on 2124?

2125 to mark13

Cha Rynn looked over the table at her advisors.

"I am of a mind to cease hostilities against these Aliens," she said.

The venerable Googlie, her External Affairs Druid, raised one eyebrow.

"Might I be so bold as to ask why?" he asked.

Cha Rynn nodded.

"Fair question. Our vendetta is tying up resources. Our Base Governors are clamoring for facilities to grow the population and keep them occupied and entertained. Producing military units is stifling our growth."

Hampton, her young Internal Affairs Druid, nodded enthusiastically. Googlie looked over at him scornfully:

"Ah, yes", he said. "By all means, let us make our targets more appetising for these Aliens. I say eradicate them first, then think of expanding our toehold on this Planet."

Cha Rynn looked thoughtful, then tapped the table with her stylus.

"I have decided," she said. "We will do both. We will tie down the garrison at their second base from long distance with our spore launcher, while Alphonse trolls the fungus. And all our bases will switch to recycling Tanks that we will rush build as soon as we accumulate the credits from our industry - or Alphonse's efforts. If Alphonse is successful in recruiting a mindworm brigade, then we will move against their bases.

"And I have ordered our new Laser Infantry unit to the Monoliths to learn the ways of Planet."

Only Druid Googlie looked uncomfortable as the meeting broke up, muttering as he left

"I only hope she knows what she's doing."

"Labs reporting."
"What is it?"
"We appear to have made a breakthrough, sir."
"It's about time. What is the nature of this breakthrough?"
"Our weapons department showed a marked increase in both accuracy and penetration yesterday, sir. It has occured due to the testing of our new "laser" weapon."
"Good work. Bring me the report."
"Aye, sir. Labs out."
