That still doesn't feel...right to me.

But back to topic before we start talking in depth about cloning.

Now, we have a nice "2.1 (+1/-0.3)" ratio and it is four turns till night, at that rate we would have 4.9 units of energy saved up! Also, we are growing steadily in Plumpets and fence sections (12 by night unless we edit the rate, 5 alien cabbages too {Requesting name for this}). Now, in order to completely circle our perimeter by night,

...

Actually, 12 seems fine if we cut off the North eastern edge until South East and North west. {Is it possible to deconstruct fences/buildings and gain back most of the resources?}


EDIT: Ahh, posts!!

EDIT[II]:

From B6-H6-H9.

Lost track of conversation, still focusing on resources and defense here.

:o

That does not seem to be classified along the known plants.

Looks like all our clones missed that tiny blue...fruit looking thing.

Since planting into the pots of the agriculture module is relitivley easy one of the clones goes to create more fence sections.

You cut the alien in half with your laser and then insert one half into the cloning module. The Protien level goes up by 2.
Then you spot something in the trees...

Holy smokes! It's another cabbage.

The two combat clones hit the hay so that they may keep watch at night. If they sleep for the full 8 turns they will wake up 4 turns into night. Although they could be woken ealier if the need arose.


3 turns until night.

*Looks at author notes*
Its...a different one!! Quick, analyze it o eccentric scientist! Leave the rest of the work to your clonies! {Suggestion:We need more combat clones and workers. No uniform packs, they look beautiful enough just like that}

Realize that you are the alien on this planet, And start calling everything "native" Instead of "Alien"

That's not how it works. Keep calling things Alien until you are properly situated, then slowly phase it out.

MMmmm, maybe you shouldn't be calling these creatures aliens. This is their planet after all perhaps you shou- OH MY GOD ALIENS!

A trio of Brown Aliens has appeared! They are much larger then you and have large flat protrusions on their head. Like the grey aliens they also have hard lumps running down the center of their backs but unlike the grey aliens they have hoof like feet, six legs and a shaggy coat of something that resembles hair.

They are traveling west and do not seem like they notice you or the colony.


2 turns until night.
