MY 2101: The Strategos looked around at the newly formed Gaias Landing with pride, then sighing, he looked back at the hastily formed scout patrol under his command. If they were the best the Gaians had to offer, then the Gaians were in big, big trouble. Alright men! Reports indicate a pod beacon to the north, see whats in it! And this time if you see any enemy, try to shoot at them not each other! Then regretfully he turned over command of the small force to his second in command. As much as he would have liked to explore his new home, other duties demanded his attention.
MY 2102: Knocking interrupted Strategos listening to the latest report from the scouts. It seems as if they had found a unity rover in working condition. Good job, continue scouting until you receive further orders. Strategos said as his secretary opened the door for his visitors. Greeting Strategos, I am the head of the Gaian Science and Technology Center. I know youre a busy man, but we were sent to you for orders about what to research. Lady Deirdre is busy with other matters and referred us to you. Ok Ill think about it Strategos growled, Now go away. Once they were gone he pulled out his trusty ouija board 30 minutes later he sent the scientists his decision Social Psych.
MY 2104: Strategos scanned the latest scout reports and notice that they have found another rover and an unidentified artifact that early tests indicate is alien.
MY 2105: What is it now? Strategos asked as a group of scientists barged in his office. We would just like to announce the discovery of social psych, we are confident that we have made the first scientific discovery on planet. Also it seems as though Lady Deirdre caught a cold dancing through trees naked and is unable to see anyone. We were directed to ask you what to research next. Strategos wondered if the last part was a joke and then decided not to ask. Biogenetics the scientists are told later.
MY 2106: Flower Preach is founded full story at eleven Strategos saw as he flipped through the channels on the TV
MY 2109: Opening the morning newspaper, Strategos sees that biogenetics is discovered with ethical calculus the next target. Why arent they going for secrets of the human brain?!?! Strategos fumes must be spies or incompetence or both
MY 2112: University discovers secrets has to be spies Strategos decides before turning his attention to more important things, namely the capture of mindworms to the north
MY 2114: More mindworms captured Strategos notices with glee
MY 2115: Strategos sat waiting for a giant com-screen to come to life. An aide had been sent for him scant minutes before, declaring that Morgan was being patched through any moment. As the life sized Morgan came up, Deirdre started to greet him. You disgust me Deirdre Morgan interrupts, Prepare for war! Deirdre turns to Strategos, Whats are military strength near Morgan? she asks Two mind worms and a unity rover He answers
MY 2116: The news that ethical calculus has been discovered and that Secrets of the Human Brain are next receives little notice considering Gaian mindworms had just defeated Morgan troops to win the first battle on planet
MY 2119: Song of Planet founded Who cares when theres a war going on? Strategos says to himself
MY 2121: Hearing Strategos is coming to take personal command of the forces against him, Morgan surrenders, pays 171 energy, gives the Gaians 2 new techs (Industrial base and Information Networks), and swears a pact to serve the Gaians. Strategos departs on a victory parade around the colonies leaving the government in other hands
NOTES: Sorry about the length, it was raining all day here and had nothing better to do I promise Ill be shorter next time. The Morgan surrender caught me completely off guard, I had only attacked one of his units and that was outside the city. I accepted his surrender because he had synthetic garrisons and the only two offensive units I had were the two mindworms (one of which was at half strength). Plus trade with Morgan should bring in some cash latter on in the game. Thanks to Morgans cash, we now lead in wealth as well as territory. Santiago leads all factions My email's down right now so I'm attaching the .sav hopefully my email will come back up soon
