2009 Conclusion

09.22 -- Dastamon survey completed, with only a small amount of research available in the system. Arrakis is up next, the last unexplored system this side of the Kroll borders.

10.01 -- The fleet is now up to six corvettes, and repairs are underway with the Nautilus Squadron now back in orbit at Humboldt.

10.24 -- Fleet repairs completed.

10.30 -- Glorim is set to investigate strange atmospheric readings in Fijjon -- risk factor 20%. He is now up to ** skill.

The first decade is in the books. We have not only survived, but thrived for the most part. The Silver Fang threat appears to be behind us, we've got our first new colony, and our civilization is slowly but surely growing and gaining control over more and more of the surrounding territory. It seems that soon all of the Grasping Claw Nebula and more will be within our grasp.

There are two long-term projects that we have on the docket presently:

** Vultaum Star Assembly -- This precursor civilization flourished millions of years ago in this part of the galaxy. We have found one dig site where we were able to discover how they measured time, but will need at least five more artifacts to develop a good working knowledge of the Vultaum.

** Mineral Riches -- Using data analysis techniques gleaned from the ancient mining drones in Wollaeus, we have targeted five distant systems as being ikely to have particularly high mineral value. At this time it is estimated it will take at least 20 years for us to survey as far as the closest systems, probably longer. Two are on the other side of the Kroll Star Commonwealth, further in on this arm of the galaxy.

In terms of achieving supremacy over the galaxy, we control 2 of the 325 systems needed for Domination, and there are presently 29 other empires we would need to 'cleanse' in order to achieve Conquest. Suffice to say that our journey is only just starting ... hopefully.

In terms of foreign relations, the Kroll Star Commonwealth is the only foreign empire we presently have contact with. Relations are still almost precisely neutral. They are still considered to be on par with us in almost all respects. We have 2 planets and 11 population, and have started to pull ahead of their holdings(1 and 10 respectively). The fact that they have not yet found a new colony to their liking bodes well for our ability to maintain our position against them.

Our efforts to understand the galaxy around us have been rewarded by Boojie in the following ways:

** Grand Design -- Blessed is the cog in the machine. 5% happiness boost to all of our citizens.
** Flagellating Movement -- We have updated our Evasive fleet stance protocols based on observations of the Space Amoebas' flagella. +5% Evasion for all our ships .

Looking ahead in terms of our immediate plans, both of our planets are set for the time being. Humboldt is expected to require no further investment for a year, Bakangi for two -- though some clamor for building a spaceport at the new colony, that is presently on the back burner. Establishing a frontier outpost to tap the wealth of Ambisia and whatever may be found in the surrounding systems -- and, just as importantly, preventing the Kroll from expanding any further in our direction -- along with beginning to clear the alien infestations from our space are the expected headlines. The fleet needs just one more corvette for a total of seven in order to be prepared for the first step against the crystalline entities in Impal Tov.

2010.1.09 -- Fijjon anomaly finished. The primary moon of Fijjon IV has immense drifting shadows across it's surface, caused by massive sheets of organic material in the sparse atmosphere. Glorim is unsure of their composition, or what purpose, if any, these might serve, how they originated -- he really doesn't seem to know a whole lot about them. It does seem, however, that a research station here would yield an unprecedentedly large amount of data to the Society Dept, two to three times that of a typical research station.

2.02 -- Research into Administrative AI completed, slightly increasing(5%) all of our technological efforts across the board.

Research Director Briefing: Dr. Frank Justyce

The Physics Department is ready for new instructions.

** Active Countermeasures(Computing, 367) -- Unlocks Sentinel Point Defense, a weapon system component for use on larger ships in combating smaller ones.
** AI-Controlled Colony Ships(Computing, 489) -- Increases speed of setting up new colonies by 25% through use of automated computerized enhancements.
** Specialized Combat Computers(Computing, 489) -- Unlocks basic combat roles. With this a pair of battle computers will become available for our ships. An Aggressive module will result in a 10% increase in fire rate and weapon damage; a Defensive module allows for a 10% increase in hull survivability, as well as a +10 chance to evade combat entirely when faced with a hostile threat.

As can be seen by the cost of the presented options, our increased population is starting to present some minor cost increases for research in terms of the logistics required to implemente changes across multiple worlds. Dr. Frank Justyce, you are on the clock. What path shall we choose?
