Go SSE 2 sectors.

[Llamainaspitfire]

Go to 6,-4, Figure out what kind of minerals they are, and if they can be used for something.
Unless system memory recalls as the copper-like mineral.

[Aklyon]

It is a different mineral.

[Llamainaspitfire]

Okay, then go to 6,-4 and scan the minerals there.

[freeformschooler]

Why is the purple sector BEFRIENDED? Did we fire our cannon at it or is our cannon just locked onto it?

[Aklyon]

Its locked on to it, and since we have two of the cannons, it could clear both out of the queue at once. Hasn't fired yet though. It has its own color so a)you guys can find where its aiming easier and b)so I can keep track of where its fired.

[freeformschooler]

>Fire both cannons

I'm hoping it's called BEFRIEND ironically.

[Aklyon]

If you couldn't tell from the link I had while describing it before, I'm using the alternate definition of it. (otherwise I wouldn't need the brown color )

Cannons Fired. Awaiting Rover description of impact site.

[RAM]

Bears have accounted for entirely too much property damage...

Design rover capable of withstanding and observing bears for extended periods of time.

[Aklyon]

Bears have accounted for entirely too much property damage...

So have we, though.

[scout890]

posting to watch

[RAM]

No doubt we have inflicted a great deal of mental trauma, and there was that little incident with destroying the remains of our first rover, and just now with the big boom, well, okay, but the bears have destroyed one rover and damaged another, that is a whole lot more than anything else on that planet and we need to conduct an explicit study into them. This would seem to require an armoured rover with stealth capabilities but less need for geological analysis or high-speed movement, as their settlements have thus-far been static... Probably try to arrange for a burst movement, perhaps chemical rockets, to evade determined assault should stealth prove ineffective...

[Aklyon]

You don't need a rover then, you need a stealthed, well-armored observer. Floating or ground-based?

Floating would take more effort to cloak, but would have much simpler movement and could just fly to the orbiter later. The ground one would be a stealth mini-tank with unstealthy burst rockets, but needing a stable, specialized comm link with the orbiter to ensure the same kind of data, since it would reveal its location if we needed to retrieve the bulky thing. Both would have an overcharged version of the rover's stun weapons, suitable enough to either knock out the bears or injure them enough to have more or less the same result, though the floater would have minor recoil problems.
Also, we can use the extra space freed by not having multiscanners for more dakka stealth systems.

[Immortal]

I vote for the flying one. We could just hover over the settlement.

Lets have our current rover begin collecting materials for rover construction where its sitting right now.
