The Last Colonies - Sci-fi TBS/RP - OOC / Always Open

I already added spice into the mechanics... but I'm yet to get around to make an IC post about it.

Oh come now, all you have to do is to type in to the green fields how much facilities you have of what kind and it will give you the end results.
Piece of cake.

So much typing though.

Plus I'm an old dog. We don't learn new tricks- I can do my posts from phone off of memory, but the spreadsheet hates my iphone

Yes, but you can copy-paste your old table every turn right below to get your new table for the current turn, on which you'll merely have to make a few modifications... but as you wish.

Ouch, our first starvation.

I don't get it!
He could have allocated another dude to harvest food instead of the research.

I guess they wanted more research, not more people. Two quarters now Hark?

Yeah, 2 Q per day, Check the Depsonea IC OP clock. It can be moved forward if need be.

Is it possible to improv population growth rates with improved food production rates? More food = more pop growth?

No, but you will need food to buy new population.
You can however, increase pop growth with health.

Gonna have to drop this one. As much as I like RPing the League, I've just lost interest.

Drat. That's a pity.

Oh, yeah, and Aur looks like they still haven't figured out they need metals for building, and need to upgrade the Lab to a Research Facility to get RP past Year 2, so yeah.

Last nail in the coffin?

Well there's still me, you, g-tech, Camelone, Auricium and PAC kingdom.

Not exactly a coffin just yet.

[Harkback Union]

All right then. Glad to hear that!

Sadly it appears the rapid mechanics have dissuaded some people. Perhaps if you TG those we've lost and get them up to speed they'll be inclined to come back now that we've slowed down? Like Grim, etc.

[Farsview]

I'm back. Sorry for the break, but I was in Chicago for the past few days and had sporadic internet. I'll catch up sometime tomorrow.

[Military Democracy of Birtonia]

Part I.
Faction Leader Name: Henry Aatlo
Faction Leader Appearance (optional): will post later
Faction Leader Biography: Henry has been described as an extremely reliable man. Everyone who knows him can say they would put all of their faith into him. Throughout the years however, he learned not to let too many people in, those he did let in were only shown a small glimpse into his psyche. He loves to keep those around him in high spirits, that way the situation can never be too grim. Henry ensures that those with him are well taken care of, and the groups needs are always at the forefront of his thoughts.
Part II. (can wait until prelude is over)
Faction Name: Neu Berlin
Faction Color: Maroon
Faction Logo (optional):
Faction Ideology (the more radical, the better): Militarism
Faction Theme Music:
Faction Landing Site (first come, first served):
Part III. (can also wait and optional)
Faction Architecture (image preferred):
Faction Fashion (image preferred):
Info on Faction Population (their daily lives, their classes):

Forgive the short app. I'm posting from a phone.

Will do, will do!

Caines, I'm done with your governor for the first 10 turns. He has built a windfarm, a habitation block, Researched Industrial core and is at 4 RP for geology. he has amassed some food. Question is, what next?
Build a HIP to improve BP income?
Build a laboratory and hydro plant and start research?
Build infrastructure to trade with other factions?
Build a P.E.R.U. and start using Petrol power?
Or should the governor choose?

I would say. Construct a lab and hydro plant.
Has a manufactory been built yet?
Am I at risk of running an energy deficit if HIP is built?

Yeah, I almost forgot, 2 manufactories were raised at the start. Yes, there may be smaller deficit but that can be easily taken care of with a windfarm. At the current rate, the hydro plant and the lab could take a good 7 turns to raise.

In that case it might be wise to erect a HIP then.

Quite so, quite so. The industrial raw power of two of them is allowing me to advance marvelously well.

You really do make swanky maps Hark. What software do you use?

Also. A thought on a mechanics change.

Instead of being able to trade research, we should go the research pact route. And allow economic pacts as well which generate bonus happiness. These of course would have to go alongside pre-Information Networks communication, which I believe would be a boon to RPer interaction, and therefore retention.

Perhaps research agreements generate 0.1 RP for each player per the other's research building, rising to 0.5 with Information Networks. They last five years and may be renewed at will.

Economic agreements give happiness from the cultural exchange of ideas generated, a base of +1 that rises to +2 and +1 PP at IN.

They could cost a few in E to set up, maybe 3 aggregate from either player, representing the virtual infrastructure being erected.
