2 votes for Australian Fear factory so it is in the lead, or we could wait for some more deliberation.

You have constructed a base in Australia and named it Fear Factory.


This is the base layout.


These are your eager soldiers. For your convenience, they have been sorted and tagged according to their profession. If you would like a closer look at any of them, just ask. Commanders should now choose which ones to put on the Skyranger.


This is a hastily-made product list. Shareholders should decide what to buy, and keep in mind you have absolutely nothing but the soldiers, 50 scientists, 20 engineers, a Skyranger, two Interceptors with Stingray/Cannon loadout and no extra ammo.


These are the possible topics for research. Head scientists should now decide what to research.

We must begin the research of the Motion Scanner at once!

My very boredom demands it!

I just vote for loading in everyone who isn't a medic, as right now we HAVE NO MEDKITS, rendering them worthless. But, if that's too many guys to fit in the skyranger, drop a light weapons guy from the loadout.

I think you get 14 spaces and a limit of 2 tanks on a skyranger, a soldier takes up 1 space and a tank takes up 4. Tanks are more expensive and take up more room, and also can't hide or move as effectively and while tougher than a soldier can still often get destroyed by a surprise attack. But they don't gain experience but start out better than soldiers so you don't lose as much time if one dies and currently the soldiers have pathetic gear while the tanks are pretty nasty.

I suggest the placement of a second workshop/factory/assembly line/whatever the hell they are called.

Also to the scientists,I want something good to sell,so if you would get with those laser weapons,it would be appreciated.

Buy some spare ammo. I'd say a spare clip for all soldiers, except for rocket users, who should get 2 extra rockets.

Thanks for specifying how many rocket launchers should get 2 extra rockets and what weapon the soldiers should get an extra clip for!


The commanders load 13 soldiers into the Skyranger. None of them have any weapons.


RAM buys two avalanche rocket launchers, and no ammo.


A workshop and living quarters are now underway.


Scientists begin research on a motion scanner.
