Hmm...I'd say Rice, Corn, Potatoes, Tomatoes and Turnips. All modified to require a 1-month growth and very nutritious.

Good for me. They might be exhaustive to the soil though.

@Mesor:

You're sending your troops by foot right. I mean it's unlikely that you're planning to stuff 500 people in 4 choppers.

Yea.
I figure the turns are gonna be a few days long at least and the chopper only went 50 miles, so at most thats about a day and a half of marching assuming days are the same length as on earth.
The choppers and heavy tanks will provide them with extra security.

But they are attack choppers, so no space for more then 1-2 passengers each so it'd take all my choppers and still would not be able to carry all the heavies.

How many pods do I have left now not counting the two I'm converting this turn?

Turns are about a month, in order to get things moving. I'd put it in the miniturn

The player stats should note the number of free pods.

That works.
14 pods left over and I'm converting 3 more to buildings and 2 more into raw materials.
So 9 left after that and 3.5 pods worth of metal currently ready most of which will be used to place metal plating on my walls, then more and the wiring will be used to place automated defense turrets around my town.
Next turn I think I'll avoid going out of town unless I find a source of metal or stone and I'll focus purely on my scientific and food production work.
Gotta bring my food production way up to a level that can sustain a population larger then I have.
Luckily the city being so huge provides plenty of space for that to be done and with water production up and running I can use irrigation to increase my yield and reduce the number of men I need to maintain the crops :).

Now I just need to find some animals that are safe to eat and begin breeding them and deal with this disease, but the measures I've put in place should contain the problem from spreading.

Just for clarification, the APC will run on armored tracks not wheels.

Hmm...couldn't that be covered by leaving some of the crop in the ground for 'fertilizer'? Perhaps leaving some of the fields fallow in certain seasons?

You told HTI that the royal marines were sending him a message. It was Neptune's Hand. Unless mesor is trying to talk to him too.

Just because I forgot, Neptune's hand recieved the message too.

Also, Mesor, what are you doing about the drone?

Choppers will follow it until it passes by my city or will engage if it enters the city and makes any hostile moves.

Have my character attempt to make contact, have a cordon of 8 light tanks and 4 choppers set up around it.
