Buy pants

Supporting this.

We MAy want big league bargainer. Anything that makes building the Colony up cheaper is worth it...

[fergus]

6th sense sounds good.

I agree.

[Roboboy33]

>6th sense, then buy the formans pants.

[Evilsx]

I suggest we get the 6th sense and buy us some pants and boots

[Evil Lincoln]

Also, is it possible for us to refine chemicals?

haven't really thought about it much. It would be a bit of a pain to get into chemistry since it would involve lots of chemicals so the most i am going to do is specific things like "This plant contains medicine".

[Flying Dice]

6th sense sounds good.

I agree.

I vote 6th sense or Experamentation. We do have to be a crazy doctor, after all.
Buy the mans pants off him. TL;DR Stop being a nudist colony.

[Flying Dice]

I'm going to continue pushing the loincloth made from untreated alien hide, because what could possibly be better than that? If we kill enough, we could make a matching cape and full face mask, and give ourselves a lucha libre stage name, becoming the most insanely awesome mad scientist in the sector. It would sure as hell help get our brand out there; every clone we produce for sale could be branded, tattooed, or grown with our image. If and when we branch out into a gift store, everything could have our image. We could have an action figure of ourselves, or maybe a plushie. Who wouldn't want a plushie of an insane genetic tinkerer wearing nothing but a mask, cape, and loincloth made from grey alien skin?

[Tiruin]

I love how we all worked for this colony.

And then debated hard on the wonders of Genetic Engineering, Biology and Anatomy.

Anyway;

Alright, first? Spoiler those catalogs, they're absolutely huge. edit - I meant evil lincoln, with the lists of things we can buy. but eh, why not.

The returns we get from cloning are amazing, I say we go ahead full throttle. Getting a research and development module and a xeno cloning upgrade are both desirable intermediate goals. For now,

I think I know how to keep a monopoly on our clones, although we should still make contracts, they have much larger facilities than we do. Anyway, in order to keep our clones secret, the trick is to make use of massive chimerization. The clones are not made up of one genome, but several different ones with the cells coexisting and forming one body. While the clone is gestating, new populations of cells with different DNA are periodically injected. The final clone would then have different DNA sequences for different parts of it's body. If you tried to make a clone with only one of these sequences, it would not work. You could even have cell populations that are necessary for gestation, but that would be phased out before birth, so that they are not even present in the adult clone. Such clones would be so difficult to reverse engineer, it'd be easier to just make your own from scratch. The downside is much more difficult to design and grow clones, but with proper optimization this could be negated.

Cost - Longer and more difficult design, more complex to grow.
Benefit - Impossible to reverse engineer. Because we're contracting out to a larger corporation anyway, this might not matter as much, but they might at least be willing to pay us more for contracts involving such clones.

Turn 53

Colony:

This picture is large and may require a small amount scrolling to view unless you have a large monitor.

You look around the colony while wearing your new pants. Only cost you 20 yollars, you sure got that forman. (+4xp for conning that sucker)

Thanks to your new 6th sense you will now have horrific visions of things to come.

You sure do wish you could scan for minerals, to bad your mineral scanner hasn't arrived yet.

Looks like that basic clone managed to fit 20 of the cabbages into the barrel, it's a nice round number, almost to round... It's like the barrel was designed to hold 20 cabbages.

You consider growing a science clone but since you don't really have any need for one now you just grow another GoRo worker instead.

You have 4 turns of research into 'Minnion' clones to go.
While you work you consider growing a dwarf-like clone for use in the mines.

The Colonyship has now left.
You currently have 85 yollars

Night will come in 2 turns.

Author Notes:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Yeah, I let you buy his pants.

I can't spoiler the lists. If someone can tell me how to put spoilers in spoilers I would be glad to.

And before anyone freaks out, the combat clones are checking out the smoke. NOT running off to join the space circus.

That fence will be finished next turn(with a gap to enter and leave) so i will finaly be able to listen to the manufacture suggestions without feeling bad about not listening to the defence suggestions.

[Tiruin]

+4xp for conning that sucker

Yeah, I let you buy his pants.

I was wrong 

"Looks at horizon", oh lookie there. Our clones managed to get one of the pinkies, and are now heading towards the smoke!

Grow Armok's Dwarven Clone! {Add nightvision, or at least for the eyes to reflect faint light like animals}

Return to harvesting Plumpet Wood.

Craft another barrel or two to hold our supplies and prevent vermin from encroaching on our cabbages.

Our Cloning Vat is full.

How many turns until night?

[Taricus]

Guys, I think we may need to leave an opening in the fence, atleast until we can build a gate anyway...
