As of the start of this year we are now on version 1.1(Clarke patch). As this is the first major one it will affect a lot of things, many of which we haven't gotten to yet.
2222, Part 2
05.14 -- The Cador system has been fully surveyed. It is very mineral-rich(9, same amount as the two leading systems in the outer arm). The void cloud debris field will be studied, and then the
Korgasch will return to its normal survey route.
06.21 -- Wily Uddlorans captured in the Ferathon system. Alien Specimen Procurement Expedition has been completed. Rewards are 398 Society research(plus a lot more divided between each stage), 345 energy, 40 influence. The
Laggasch will now journey beyond the Hark system, jumping to the inner galactic arm to see what might await us there ...
The Museum of Exobiology is quite the attraction now. Artificial gravity and atmospheric generators simulate the environment of a dozen worlds, and tourists from all over the Oncorhynchus Collective journey to see it's wonders.
Meanwhile, the Agglor colony is being established in the Leesak system. Also, between the society research saved up and the reduced amount available each month due to the infiltration of Macaw, accelerated research will be happening in that department for more than five years at the current rate.
07.16 -- A very challenging anomaly is discovered in the Hanneri system. Glabonsch does not dare attempt it(42% failure risk).
Aslik Deesh and the Laggasch are the only ones who could handle the situation(27% risk for him) and he will redirect there first. It is nine jumps away, so for him to get there, get back, and jump across to the inner arm will be quite the journey.
08.01 -- Solar Panel Network finished at Humboldt Spaceport.
08.05 -- Mining station finished in Siccon, the first of two to be built there. Meanwhile, another spaceport is begun, this one in orbit of Eskogg.
08.14 -- Mine upgrade finished on Bakangi.
08.26 -- Void Cloud debris analysis completed in Cador. Further progress is made towards Regenerative Hull Tissue, and also some on something called Cloud Lightning Conduits.
09.01 -- Basic Science Lab begun on Bakangi.
10.01 -- Glabonsch up to ****. Also, the Arrakis system is now inside Kroll space as they have founded a new colony on the Deetenal system, extending their borders. Our six orbital stations in the system -- two each of mining, energy, and reseach -- are no longer functioning
. It's just on their side of the border, and it's possible we might get a bit of push if we are able to subvert Micaw and get it back on our side of the border. Wexellia is a lot further away than Deetenal(just below the cutoff here on the right, Arrakis and Theggian jump lanes converge there), so I don't know how far it's reach would be ...
Note that in Dastamon there is a smallish(size 12) arctic world that could be colonized. We'll have options to bring Arrakis back under our control eventually. This will not stand unless we choose to allow it, it's just a case of what the solution ends up being, and how long it takes.
10.21 -- Another tough anomaly, also in the Hanneri system. Deesh will need to handle them both while he's there. Could take a while.
And that's it -- another year in the books. We're now basically 'caught up', barring interruptions 2223 will be up in the morning.
