wow you respond quickly.

[Splint]

Yeah. Updates are what takes forever.

Ok guys, I've decided I can't govern on my own entirely any longer. Jackirons needs direction, mostly so I have something to put pony/manpower into.

Come on people, let's hear some suggestions! I need something to do! Also, a self imposed challenge/chore is to export supplies for the war effort. Poll on what Jackirons should contribute above.

But do bear in mind the following:

• I'd like to avoid anything that is guaranteed to kill large numbers of us.
• No going for Starmetal. We are nowhere near ready for that.
• Our surface usage is limited to within the walls for safety reasons and the presence of a foal that I'd prefer go unsnatched, and that is very sparse due to large fruit groves.

[P(ony)SI]

I vote we export food, unless we have a ridiculous amount of metal, in which case we export weapons.
Could we also export supplies to go with either one of those?

My memory of the fort is rusty. What projects have you built, and how many cavern levels deep are you?

[Splint]

Most of the surface is taken up by living space (one of the apartment buildings is taller than the cave) and there's two areas that have been given over to fruit trees. We also have a semi-finished red stone wall (still needs its upper half but self-imposed material limitations are making it take a long time. We're also one cavern level down. Said cavern layer is teeming with those godsdamned Slippy ponies that are probably worshiping Skyfire as some form of deranged cult for saving them from the web slinging water monster.

Here's my idea. Make an arena out of the first cavern level and have military personnel fight slippies to the death.
That is, the slippies will die.

[Splint]

It's already planned, minus the arena part.  We need nervous tissue to make spectra from, and what better source than those little bastards who are cluttering up my units list?

A certain tainted pony can help you with that...

But still, you need an arena for live training. Bonus points if it's made out of marble.

[Splint]

Hmm. I wonder if we actually have any marble or white stone in general here...

[Gentlefish]

Is there a dominant god for the Ponies, a favorite? I want a Cathedral. Underground or not. Smoothed, with an altar. Sacrifice the slippyponies and other not-friendly ones there, as offerings to them, then harvest their nervous tissue and make skull totems out of them.

[Splint]

Quite frankly I have no idea. I think there's one called Paper is the most commonly worshiped but I think that one's associated with nonviolent things; I think Paper is associated with writing and two other things I can recall; there's enough ponies now that trying to figure the most popular out'd be impractical, because i don't even know if that guess is accurate. I only ever check relations to see who is friends with who, who who is married to, and all that jazz.

Helps determine who is most at risk for tantrums if someone gets whacked either in battle or accidents after all.

I get worship? Yay!

[Splint]

Why wouldn't you? You're a flying, magic wielding damn-near immortal thing that delivered them from horrible watery web and slush induced death!

[Gentlefish]

Maybe conquer the first set of caverns? That's always a fine goal. Then hope for a downward spiral (Or a mysterious rumour) that there's a cavern level even lower.

[Splint]

That'll probably be a good goal for the time being since we're going to be on an extermination mission down there anyway. Gonna try and get some stuff together for another update.

And now a fine example of gameplay and story segregation: Only PSI's squad is deemed an enemy of the slippy tribe. This is resulting in the efficient processing of corpses because ponies are slaughtering remains as they come in. Well, mostly anyway. Anyone with a crossbow or magic is attacking the slippy ponies they see fighting with PSI's squad.
