someone else did, so I'm just  Getting on the train

Heh.

Lay out my map to plot the journey while chatting with my old friend Mark Sheperd

[Elephant Parade]

Since I guess actions are a thing now, I'll do this:

Examine map for potential hazards.

(Wow.  Was getting one last treat done.  Did not expect so much to be done while I was making it.)

The ship begins to set off on its 15 day journey from Earth to Hiro.  Fifty passengers are on your ship, of various races.  All are defenseless, due to the Interstellar Disarmed Passenger Act that was created after a terrorist group killed everyone on a ship.  If you run into any enemies, then they will be of little help, and would likely get in your way.  Anyway, what are doing?

Good question. Your tags are slightly messed up, but if that was it then it probably wouldn't work here, either.

[Edit]Wow, you fixed it before I was done posting.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

[Edit]Wow, you fixed it before I was done posting.

Not really.  It should be in the turn post, but I just added a spoiler tag.  I meant to have the new 'continued later on page' be a link, but it gave me the message, again.

Oh, yeah, the Space Train's image is fixed.

Scar from Insectoids (-1 to interactions with Insectoids)

That should be Scar from Slimes, unless you changed it on purpose.

(I assume hired hands serve drinks or something?)

Get a hold of PA. Start explaining any safety rules in Sychosian and Human-speak

My mistake.  Now corrected.

Hired Hands are the waiters and the redshirts.

I am the only human engineer. Nice, since the bugs need to be close, I'll let them get the two engines up by the bridge.

Find something to use as a cane, and head to the back of the ship to the main engine's core room, and set up a chair for me to sit in by the intercoms.

[Dansmithers]

Make the passengers comfortable.

If it were someone else saying this, it wouldn't be so creepy.
