"Create more advanced mining drones, as many as possible. Related, use Both The chemical, and reactor processing."
'"Alright Omer, we have a power source and ultra conductive materials, what now?"
"Give the SR1 a full crew of Excalibur personnel and send it over to find out whats wrong with Xexelith"
And my responses to the previous turns actions. Loot then scuttle the pirate frigate, make sure to take notes on ship design and weaponry, keep up the strict security protocols on the asteroid base, Give CSE a medium manufacturing zone and full use of Rosenthal to design them a freighter.

Re: Pioneers of space. (Always open)
"I'll start by saying we haven't been completely honest with you. Earlier when I said we hailed from a garden world in the Apian Crest, and that we got a grant to leave, that was true. What I failed to mention was the state of the company when we left, or more importantly the system name. The name of our old system was Raccoon.
Aegis was a perfect world in practically every way, except for the soil, it contained a highly adaptive virus which slaughtered our crops. Around the same time we were preparing to leave, a handful of scientists solved the problem, they modified it so it supported the plants growth and created a sort of symbiotic relationship. Everyone thought this was a marvelous idea, and the new virus was introduced without a hitch, and it was estimated that it eliminated the previous strain of the face off the planet within a week. This raised a few eyebrows within the scientific community, and some of the radicals openly protested, but the majority still thought everything was going smoothly. By the week of our departure however, contact was being lost with the farming towns, and satellite images showed the towns were over run with mobs of virus ridden people.
What I'm trying to say is that we had essentially created something from a 20th century horror film, and things didn't pan out any better than the fiction suggested. Fortunately we were already packed and on-board by the time it reached the cities (I had stopped outside personnel from boarding the ship long before that however), and luck would have it that all of our supplies were packed and stored before the crop was introduced. When we left we were bid farewell by the remainder of the company board, they mentioned that infections were popping up around the fleet and space stations as they spoke. They said they planned to make the star go supernova, lest anyone else stumble upon our dear planet, that was when I was promoted to the head of the company, and told to protect the remainder of our people to the best of my abilities. We observed they did manage to destroy the star earlier this month, and in a few weeks most systems in this sector should get a pretty spectacular light show.
You are now looking upon the remnants of a once great company, however I believe that you can help make us mighty again, and that together, we can stand strong at the frontier of Knowledge and Justice once more."

Quote: "We'll send the Pit Dog. It'll be temporarily fitted with Nerve Agent 84 canisters in the main body of the ship, and will be staffed with a skeleton crew of only two personnel (both safely in the plot's cabin).
As a further safeguard, weapons systems have been temporarily disabled in case something goes wrong and the ship is hijacked." Do that.Begin mass production, rationing, and consumption of the new wakefulness drug on Gehenna. Ship a quantity to Gungnir and Canis through Canis' private trade network.Fit both Bulkheads with purified-heavy metal lasers. Continue research in making the lasers more long-lasting and efficient (probably by modulating their power based on the specific material they are melting or by replacing standard refractors with durable artificial diamond).

Re: Pioneers of space. (Always open)
Right now i have time for some more coherrant thought.
FIrstly goddamn you guys and meta-knowledging the ever loving bejesus out of kilik'tar. (Not to mention i already overlooked the breech in communication "rules")
Secondly: Flail, there is more space to the left. However you were not provided with a deep space scan. Feel free to expand in that direction.

I never actually planned on acting through with the bio weaponing. It takes time to develop bio weapon's, which means it takes a action, and those actions are very useful right now. Also some rules on meta knowledge would be really nice if they were in the first post

Re: Pioneers of space. (Always open)
Sorry, I assumed that everyones presence in the sector was constantly broadcast, through passive scanning, word of mouth ect (eg, Izen has a station in orbit around that planet, so we could assume the people manning it would have reported it, and we listened in, much like Non did to our 'private' alliance talk).
Anywhom, please accept my sincerest apologies.

Re: Pioneers of space. (Always open)
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 7 WHALES. ALREADY MY EMPIRE IS EXPANDING.
Have A Whale Acidise Its Insides And Regurgitate Them Into The Ocean, promptly spreading bacteria
Get the other whales to hunt for anything useful e.g sharks, coral, Schools of fish >:D and promptly infect them with the above method If that is too much for a turn just make them hunt.
Try to rebuild a basic comms relay, I want to give my new friends something to think about. Lol.

Re: Pioneers of space. (Always open)
Ok, derp on my part for participating in the metagaming.
Instead of that whole Pit Dog dispatching thing: Begin development of a heavy observation/ECM cruiser, loaded with radio, X-ray and optical telescopes, jamming equipment, a databank of computer viruses, and a few pulsed lasers for self-defense.
Also, could you clarify on the "breach of communication rules"?
