The majority appears to be M-5. If none of the votes change, then it will be official by morning. Goodnight everyone.

Well im going L-12 anyway I cant hunt a plant or a tree.
I'm a little confused though guys why would a team heavy on engineers pick a farming planet over a planet with a mine that has very likely still got most of the equipment needed to run the mine and would use far more electronic equipment then a farm?

[Unholy_Pariah]

why would a hunter pick a planet without wildlife?

Planet L-12: A mountainous desert planet that is ...snip... Wildlife has never been purported to exist here, which puzzles researchers to no end.

[mesor]

Neither planet is great for a hunter although the desert world could still have some inhabitants from the original group of settlers or there descendants.
But my main point was we have a team based largely around electrical and mechanical equipment going to a farming world.

1 word... Hydroponics

[mesor]

Hmm I suppose but its going to cost a fortune to get all the equipment for that.
Not to mention we're probably going to need automated defenses all around the outside of the camp and the farm if we don't want the jungle to sneak up on us in the night.
And thats after we manage to drive back the jungle and find a good place to actually place a farm.
I hope we choose a place where the animals that survived are around a lot or my hunter is going to be a little pointless and i could at least give us some extra food then until the farm is running.

[Unholy_Pariah]

don't worry i have several plans to deal with the plant life... at least one of them has gotta be semi-effective

[mesor]

Hah mate this is an rtd. Of course they don't.

L-12 for me, or otherwise the Forest world.

[Parsely]

Planet M-5 has been chosen. Prepare for drop Migrants.
Unholy_Pariah chose M-5
xantalos chose M-5
mesor appeared to be leaning toward M-5
10ebbor10 appeared to be leaning toward M-5 (he changed one of his skills to Hydroponics)
crazysheep chose L-12

[10ebbor10]

((Hydroponics is actually more usefull on a planet where you can't find other food sources. On the forest world we could just use normal farming, providing we keep out the other plants.))

[Xantalos]

((All right. Now when I inevitably get lost I can die of poisoning rather than starvation!))

[10ebbor10]

((All right. Now when I inevitably get lost I can die of poisoning rather than starvation!))

There's also such a thing as carnivoric plants.

And that. Being the size of a 6 year-old doesn't help.

Game Start

The great halls of Man shook and the earth itself roared. Flames burst from the mountains and the seas themselves rose up in spiteful revolt. The world of Men was coming to an end. I ran and ran, but I could not escape the relentless march of fate, its accursed stare and void-spanning arms. The sins of our past were facing us, and all we could do was run. After an eternity of selfish escape, I finally fell to my knees in pious resignation as my very soul bubbled and was washed away. Nothing could keep me from the salvation that lies in Death.

Thats when you woke up. You blink steadily and try to clear your eyes of the blurry slumber that has ensconced you these many years. You've finally arrived. The pod's interior is black except for the dim light of a control panel, and the lazy beams of sunlight shafting through the thin glass viewports in front of you. You unclip your restraints and sit up, then….
