Politics

  • Probably something or other?

Character Actions

  • Dark: Flies back to investigate the wormhole blinkiness.
  • Jude: Investigating the mysterious cache.
  • Rick: Rick starts researching the giant plant in the tower. Naturally, he starts by pulling the levers that he doesn't know what they do.
  • Kyil: Is hopefully recruited by the Heralds, and in addition to playing along for now, tries to plant a tracking device on his recruiter (or backtrace his phone call, etc.)
  • Tesher: Tesher meets with Nitf@x at the cafe (but not before doing a bit of prep work: checking out who owns the cafe, if there's been any potentially relevant construction/modification work done on it in the past, if there are any interesting discrepancies in its paperwork, etc.).
  • Seve:
  • Reig: sits with somebody good at data/science stuff and works with them to figure out what's on the data crystal he procured from the Three Star Warehouse.
  • Silentus: Plans for a grand infiltration of Iavo.
  • (NPC) Basinbloke: Gets the dirt on all the various emperorship candidates and what can be done to ensure they lose.

Results

As the game resumes on turn 25, things are pretty normal on the colony worlds: more shipping, more producing, and more constructing.

The Farlight Institute finishes its work developing a cure for ORPitis, and starts passing it around; it's expensive to create the serum, but the recipients can presumably afford it. The gesture is certainly appreciated -- the colonies gain +3 Influence.

The Boumfadour Institute for Ecology finishes their work on terraforming, discovering some broader applications of terraforming.

Katlian College completes its work on military economics, determining that warships are being made about as cost-effectively as they can be at the moment, which suggests the best way to increase profits is to increase demand and then increase supply to meet that demand. Their analysis includes a number of star systems where demand for warships could likely be increased.

The Tomorrow Institute similarly finishes its analysis on a complete marketing campaign for Seve, the prototypes for which already give Seve and the colony worlds +3 Fame. The Institute thinks it likely that further marketing would be best directed at a particular opponent to highlight the differences between them and Seve, but it's not clear which opponent that should be.

Rick completes an initial study of the plant in the tower: it appears to be a highly-modified version of another kind of local flora which is extremely responsive to sunlight; this seems both enlarged but also mutated to react to other sorts of radiation, and the apparatus atop the tower is apparently designed to help direct that radiation onto the plant.
