I second that motion!

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Against.
1) It's absolutely unpractical,
2) we have no needed technology,
3) it's dangerous for us because viruses mutate
4) We'll need to kill zombies
5) It's boring

[kingfisher1112]

Zombies? Boring? LEAVE THIS FORUM

[Zecro_The_Scourge]

We do not NEED zombies, our biological and technological superiority is fine enough.

We SHOULD, however, look into the use of poison gas. Our biology is probably different enough from the humans that there are plenty of things that harm them but not us.

[RAM]

Build a radiation weapon to disable bipeds within unshielded fortifications.

[kopout]

Build a radiation weapon to disable bipeds within unshielded fortifications.

I prefer the poison gas idea. We can design a gas that harms humans but not Us but We can't do that to radiation.

[kingfisher1112]

No, bunker busters.

Check the Flowers to see what they're doing with Human plants
Build more armed APC's
Build rocket

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Hm, I'd like to lay that T-9 soldier egg, it will make a good combat scout\infiltrator

[Ross Vernal]

You head deep underground to lay more of Us. After all, a war needs Soldiers to fight it and Scouts to search for, and every Hive needs more Drones. Always more Drones. In the meantime, You instruct the specialized Drones to make updates, specifically ordering the Digging Drone to become more of a leader unit and the Nurse to adapt itself further to development. With this being completed, You proceed back to the Flower Chamber and study the growth of the Human plants.

Surprisingly, it appears that the Flowers have taken over several of the plants - one Flower with kudzu is rather vine-like and growing quickly up the scaffolding near it. Another next to cannabis has grown fibrous and has a pungent aroma with serrated leaves, while the hops plant is likewise growing. The only other plant with notable differences is by the quinoa plant. You have no idea how these interactions will work. You order the production of more APC vehicles and watch the Vehicle Bay come to life with Drones and machines, then get to work on building the rocket. Given the short period of time spent on the other areas, the pacing of the rocketry goes well, and You manage to complete the superstructure before night falls.

Those fruits of life are topside variety I presume?
What dose eating the fruit do? just provide a unit of food? in any event whta I think we should do when we do eat the fruit is plant the seeds above ground in the structure described below.

Proposed plan for further adapting above ground plants to outside.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Construct a series of ditches with a simple irrigation system built in. The ditches run perpendicular to the wing and between each ditch is a  ridge. The ridges act as wind brakes and have heaters that activate at night to help reduce temperature fluctuation. By transplanting some of the younger aboveground flowers into these ditches we can increases their ability to withstand freezing temperatures.

we should get to work building this.

[Ross Vernal]

A Fruit is 2 Units of Food. It also tastes the best. Our eating it also helps the seed germinate, as it has a really thick husk and requires Our eating and scratching away at it.

While the Flowers are cold-tolerant, they're still not freeze-tolerant, and are still adapted to acidic wet soil as opposed to basic dry near-dirt. It'll still take a while for Flowers to be viable on the surface, but given how simple it will be to produce from stocks now, that is certainly a plan.

[Side note: These responses are technically in character. I'm part of the Hivemind, and "the speed of thought" is basically "an instant".]

[Ukrainian Ranger]

No, no, no to the ditches. Not yet. It can wait until we conquere that planet. Let's not make our base much more visible

And we need underground projects, more underground projects. Diggers are idle and I don't like this

[RAM]

Priority:
1st. We should develop gravity shielding to allow stable habitation at greater depths.
2nd. We need to develop our war princess.
3rd. We should commune with them...
4th. We should make a suitable mate for the princess to produce the best combatants.
