How about divide and conquer here?  Split up the pack, take them out one by one as a group.  They are the antelope- we are the lions.

I work (with whoever helps me) to split one off from the rest and take it down separately.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Theres three carnivores and three herbivores in the group, but okay...

Sounds like a good idea, I'll try to assume a swimming form and glide along Toaster, ready to outflank whatever cell/critter is being chased. AFTER I gobble up whatever scraps were left behind from the previous critters, maybe even a discarded spike or two.

Since I'm as vividly colored as a jawbreaker now :P
Will help breaking up the pack by swimming around.
and absorb some more algaes/smaller stuff like bacteria in the way and attempt a symbiosis(Mitochondria/Chloroplast anyone?)
This whole stuff begans to sound like a microbiology course to me :)
(to smjjames...I don't think you can do that now...maybe a full DNA bar first?)

Not trying to mutate right now, just make the cellular membrane as stretchy as possible.

As for smaller stuff like bacteria and whatever forming a symbiosis, I'm assuming we already have organelles equivalent to mitochondria.

For the purposes of making it easy for me to sort out between planning between yourselves and your actual orders, please put your final orders for your cell in bold
Remember, consider the specifics of the situation you're in and make your orders as if you were programming something then letting it go,  of course with a little more leeway as I can discern intent somewhat.. of course, that could sometimes be a bad thing  hehehe

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

Maybe...and suddently realized having Chloroplast will essentially make me a plant(!!!)
Will change action to:
Break the pack up with my vivid color by swimming around, eating algaes and possibly, some unarmed smaller cells(If I can digest algaes I should be able to digest them too... the same lysosome right?) in the way. Also engage in scavenge action when the dust settles.

You'll develop towards multi-cellular as you get bigger. Going to land (victory condition) you'll just find out how that happens later :)

cant we continue past land this is An Evolutionary RTD cant we go ALL the way?

Believe me, I've got that planned.  Animal stage will will be a new game (with priority given to cell participants) and will feature based on some twists you haven't run into here yet :)

Okay then, I 'fly' (technically swim, but whatever) in rough formation with the other two predators, scooping up whatever bacteria and food particles are in front of me, single out one prey and work to separate it from the 'herd' and then bring it down, somehow.

Help the carnivores break up the group; being the distraction again.  Give any excess food I gather this turn to someone who doesn't have a full bar (if any).

Save a little bit of DNA for me, guys.

Nothing is too big to eat...Size matters, and wouldn't they simply break you into digestable pieces first? :)
