Overview

Possessions of the colony worlds.

General

Statistics

  • Wealth: 78
  • Fame: 57
  • Influence: 41

Discoveries/Inventions

  • A recipe for building a short-range teleporter at the cost of 5 mc or 1 Fancy Crystal + 1mc
  • A recipe for using Fancy Crystals to substitute for 5 mega-credits of the cost of producersmining regions (can be done multiple times)
  • A recipe for creating (on Elvis only) 4 rank-1 military units for 1 mega-credit each, or 2 rank-2 military units for 4 mega-credits each, or a combination (used)
  • A recipe for adding 'food' as a possible raw material type to any mining region that has dark underwater cave networks for 3Mc.
  • A methodology for more efficient collection of raw materials when stashes are found in the wild, allowing for an extra unit to be collected each time.
  • A methodology for doing water samples on Boumfadour, allowing regions to be explored in 3 turns rather than 6 for levels I and II.
  • Environmental Harmony I: Any region that produces Kelp may also produce Food
  • A methodology for ground units to evade and attack flying units: this initially reduces the zone bonus of the flying unit by 3, while each additional round the technique is used against the same enemy, the reduction decreases (by 2, by 1, and then by 0).
  • Wormhole Control I: A basic introduction to wormholes
    • Identify Potential Wormhole Location: An energy field disruption detector (a rank-1 useful device) mounted on a ship can detect nearby (in-system) areas that have the natural potential to support a wormhole, and (with further scanning and analysis) deduce where the other end of the wormhole is
    • Open Wormhole: Three transmission towers (rank-1 useful devices) positioned correctly can cause a wormhole to come into existence in an area with the natural potential for one. The other end of the wormhole is wherever it naturally leads to.
    • Close Wormhole: Three powerful transmission towers (rank-2 useful devices) positioned correctly can disrupt a currently-open wormhole, causing it to close.
    • Tap Wormhole Potential: After the closure of a natural wormhole, the natural potential can be tapped for energy. Tapping the energy requires a powerful transmission tower (a rank-2 useful device) and batteries to store the energy (a rank-2 useful device, one or more required).
    • Disrupt Wormhole: Three transmission towers (rank-1 useful devices) or one powerful tower (rank-2 useful device) can be used to disrupt a wormhole for a single turn.
    • Block Wormhole Transmission: One transmission tower (rank-1 useful device) can be used to block other tranmissions sent to control a wormhole. The effectiveness of this blocking is variable.
  • Environmental Defense I: Three units of Chemicals can be spent in an ocean or sargasso sea region to enrage the sea creatures in the area against outsiders, creating two rank-1 ground units which last for a single turn. This can be done multiple times in a region.
  • HyperPlasmic Cactus: This takes four exploration points to seed in a region containing hyperidot, after which that region can also produce Food as a resource.
  • Basic intra-system teleportation: Completely-artificial (ie, not using binary birds) teleportation has been developed at last, concurrent with expanding the range to between colony planets. The basic model of teleportation requires a sending station (a rank-2 useful device which takes up one unit of cargo) and a receiving station (a rank-1 useful device which takes up one unit of cargo). Sending stations can send one unit's worth of material a turn, and/or an arbitrary amount of individual people. Sending stations can also act as receiving stations. This initial research allows the construction of one sending station for two units of rank-2 goods, and one receiving station for one unit of rank-1 goods, but future stations will have to be built using the normal methods.
  • Wormhole Harmonics: Examination of the mystical rites details in the submarine island on Boumfadour suggest a careful study has been made of the vibrations emanating from the wormhole. This enables earlier detection of changes occurring to the wormhole, and allows for the detection of new wormholes before they open (both effects require a single transmission tower).
  • Environmental Harmony II: Advanced but precision-requiring harvesting methods allow one mining region per planet to produce an additional unit of resources per rank each turn.
  • A modification to the structure of the Riju Tri-Lateral Industrial Complex, enabling it to process an additional three goods into a component each turn, as long as the produced component is organic/biological in nature. Enacting this modification requires a unit of Rainbow Reagent and can be done one time. (used)
  • Bilocation: Improbable advances in teleportation technology allow temporary duplication! A precision resonator (a rank-2 useful device) can project a field allowing a subject to be duplicated. Once duplicated, each duplicate leads an independent life until the resonating field collapses, at which point one duplicate vanishes (apparently at random, though there is speculation it might be possible to control with proper control of how the field collapses).
  • The Lengthy and Glorious Epic History of House Prime (Condensed Version): This popular volume can be found in spaceport bookstores everywhere.
  • Applied Terraforming Techniques: Looking at the terraformer grants some insights into region-building, reducing the cost of building a region rank by 3 mega-credits.
  • A cure for ORPitis: This disease tragically only affects people who are old, rich, powerful, or all three, making it difficult for them to get any sympathy. Thankfully the colony's research institutions have come to their rescue, developing a cure.
  • A brief work on military economics with regard to fighter ship pricing: Demand has a natural tendency to drop off, especially for more expensive items, but by careful fomenting of war and a cunning advertising campaign, this can be compensated for.
  • The outlines of a complete marketing campaign for Seve's campaign for emperor: Useful for future expansion, though that would probably have to be directed against a specific opponent
  • An initial study of the plant in the observatory: Its relation to other plants and its lifecycle, but no clear understanding of its purpose.
