Agents Of Empire/Turns/13/Colony Worlds

Turn 13

House Actions

• Shipping:
  • The Reiglight Revenge takes the Foreign Legion to Vefna, along with either Rick or Jude.
  • The Space Whale takes 4 units of Industrial Kelp and Raphael Helsing and his Reef Riders to Elvis.
• Fighting:
  • Thunderchild, the Yowlin' Yoshis and the Fightin' Fighters take up defensive positions on and around Arroyo.
• Exploration:
  • The StarLight Survey Scouts explore a new region in the hope of finding food (making it 2/6 of the way to Explored-I)
  • The Lewison Clarks and Bram together explore a new region, the Cavernous Region (making it 5/6 of the way to Explored-I)
• Industry:
  • Bonanza Region: Produces 6 units Hyperidot
  • Island Region: Produces 1 unit Chemicals, 3 units Industrial Kelp, 2 units Food
  • Ocean Region: Produces 3 units Chemicals
  • Bloos Wade Region: Produces 1 units of Unsorted Crystals (with homesteader help) and 3 units of Food
  • Alshu Cup Region: Produces 2 units of Unsorted Crystals and 1 unit of Metals
  • Hau Ndogg Region:
    • The Riju Tri-Lateral Industrial Complex processes 2 units of Unsorted Crystals and 1 unit of Food into 1 unit of Biological Control Crystals (a rank-2 refined good).
    • The Riju Tri-Lateral Industrial Complex processes 4 units of Unsorted Crystals and 2 units of Metals into 2 unit of Large Energy Weapons (a rank-2 refined good).
• Research:
  • The Farlight Institute of Crystal Biotechnology should probably pause its current research (if any) and work on either A) how to defend against Gwyne's fleet or B) how Arroyo can start feeding itself.
  • The Hau Ndogg Community College astro-polo stadium (and secret underground advanced physics laboratory) should probably work on either A) how to fix the wormhole (a natural follow-up from the Gwyne's Nefarious Plan research) or B) how to defend against Gwyne's fleet.
  • The Boumfadour Institue for Ecology and Planetary Development should also be researching something if it isn't already. One of the three topics mentioned above might be worth considering.
• Building:
  • Elvis uses its recipe for creating "2 rank-2 military units for 4 mega-credits each" (requiring Floor(C/(N+5)) = Floor(8/2+5) = 1 unit of rank-2 refined goods) to convert 1 unit of Biological Control Crystals into 2 rank-2 military ground units: squads of militarized carnivorous plant monsters known respectively as "The Green Berets" and "The Elvis Flytraps".
• Landing:
  • The Reiglight Revenge arrives at Vefna. Stuff probably happens relating to that.
  • The Space Whale arrives at Elvis, dispensing 4 units of Industrial Kelp.
• Trading:
  • Elvis' Hau Ndogg Region, Bloos Wade Region and Alshu Cup Region each consume 1 unit of Food.
  • Boumfadour's Island Region and Ocean Region each consume 1 unit of Food.
  • Arroyo's Bonanza Region goes hungry.
• Politics:
  • Someone (presumably either Rick or Jude) should check in with the Iavonians on Elvis about the whole current situation.

Character Actions

Colony

• Dark: Repairs the ship from the whirlpool.
• Jude: Jude probably either does preparation-type stuff on Elvis (probably with the help of the Farlight Institute?) to make ready for Gwyne's attack (maybe to hack their ships or build force fields or something?) or he rides to Vefna on the Reiglight Revenge, spending the trip doing preparation-type stuff for the assault-and-rescue on Vefna (like maybe making useful gadgets for the breakout?).
• Rick: Rick either rides to Vefna on the Reiglight Revenge, spending the trip working out attack plans and drilling the Foreign Legion or he spends the turn using his familiarity with the terrain and his Survival skills to set traps and improve defenses on Elvis, in preparation for Gwyne's arrival.
• Bram: Exploring.
• Kyil:

Imperial Core

• Reig:
• Seve: Digs out the pictures of the exploded-thing-in-a-crate from a few turns back and shares them with the other PCs. Then he (and anyone else who cares to join in) tries to get some answers out of Nif@x.
• Silentus:
• Tesher: By sheer random luck, Tesher just happens to run into his old friend Reig! After getting caught up on the events of the first twelve turns, he agrees to help the colonies out however he can.
