Propose to the other thoughts to sell those Cabbages. Like last time, except that everyone else forgot to do it.

May we...submit a query to Impex Corporation? We have recovered their pink box a while ago, we must have some advantage.

Send one of the workers doing menial tasks to man the Smelting module to produce Ores.

Order two clones to start operating the mining module, and I asked for a list of the attack animals Gregs is selling.

Is there a Better Business Bureau or Consumer Reports we could talk to? Just because others might have had issues with some of the companies offering business, and we might want to know who to trust. And some of the attack animals might be more reliable than others. We don't want to get the most powerful attack animal, only to have it go berserk on our clones due to a bad education.

You only need one to operate it.

Sorry I forgot, I edited the turn so one is there now.

There is nothing official out here, no government, no authorities, no quality control. Although you can still get the 'goss' from other traders if you knew where they hung out.

But where they are is anyones guess. What, of course not, i'd never give anyone hints.

Have a clone operate the mining module then. I think getting a monkinoid would be a good idea if we can afford it.

If we sell two of the basic clones and most of the cabbages (around 30) we have enough for both the combat buggy and the monkinoid.
I'd be tempted to sell more clones as we can replace them easily enough if there is other things we want. The engine blueprint maybe? or maybe blueprint modifiers/creators.

We should probably aim to have some profitable goods next time around, wooden planks seem to be worth a fair bit.

Btw Evil Lincoln when will the blueprints we ordered get added to our manufacturing list? You didn't say in the update.

Edit: If we do opt to sell more clones it might be worth use setting off the build for some new goro workers to replace what we sell, infact as we have increase housing with the warehouse it might be worth doing that anyway.

Oops. I don't know what i'd do without you people to correct me. I just plain forgot to add them to the list of things you could make. They are there now though.

i suggest we cover our current fence with hard sheets. it improves our current fence and would act sort of like rebar and reinforce the concrete when we get around to that

A wire mesh might work better if the idea is to reinforce concrete later. It would also be an improvement over the fences, although probably not as much as hard sheets.
Cheaper to build I expect.

battery and microchip blueprints.

You'd prefer these over the engine blueprint?
They are slightly cheaper so selling a single worker clone (along with the cabbages and two basic clones) would let us get them as well (as the monkey and combat buggy).

Turn 72
Colony:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The shuttle lands after putting down the new power plant. The forman gives you a box containing the uniforms. You then sell them 2 basic clones 1 worker clone and 35 cabbages (+415 yl).

Next you proceed to spend all of your money by purchasing a combat buggy from Omnicorp, a monkonid from Greg's Teeth and Claws, and the blueprints for batteries and microchips. (-1260 yl).

You set the Cloning module to make a worker GoRo. You will need to put more protein into the cloning module if you want to make more.

The miners have only just managed to scrape up some ore in the last few turns so you move one of them onto smelting and use the mineral scanner to see if there is anything left where you were digging.

SCAN:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There is some silicon rich soil marked in yellow as well as a deposit of Additive C marked in blue (Additive C can be added to metals to make them non-conductive). The lines show how deep they are and their locations on the surface. The green box is an outline of where the mine is.

Finaly you contact Impex and ask them for a brochure. You tell them that you helped them out with a pink box a few days ago. The Regional manager thanks you and authorises a 3% discount as well as giving you early access to some of the more advanced technologies once they become available.
