2300, hey ho, let´s go. And I turn off events.
Only a yellow and a purple star are in range, so I scout both, with the colony accompanying my scout shp to the yellow star.
2303
Maarlor, the yellow star host a 50 pop ultra rich. This will be fun! I begin the wild population dispatching game.
2309
I quickly check out techs and decide to go mostly for the more expensive ones to get more points in 2375. Except for Barren, which I prefer over a cleanup tech to get more colonising options. To avoid waste, maalor starts a colony ship already as ultra rich means pop grow can´t keep up with production. Especially with the Klackons.
I should have tried to make it my main planet instead of Klackon in retrospect.
2313
Artemis is uncovered and we find the Fusion Bomb... yay.
Well at least I get my Weapon Tech level to 8 that way.
Why not something as awesome as scatter V, though.. (And just to prove the point, Sulla gets it.)
2318
Maalor builds its first colony ship, and a death system is uncovered to the south. I design LR Laser and Kholdan starts to build them. Screenie 1.
2319
Barren Enviroment comes in. I pour everything into Fuel Cell Research
2322
Way too fast my 2nd colony ship comes in, I can´t even send it out yet. 2 new barren colony ships are enroute to be built.
2326
Just in time for my 2nd barren colony ship, fuel cells range 5 come in, nuclear engines are next. I pour research into construction asap.
A new barren colony ship takes 3!! turns at Maalor.
2328
Herculis a fertile terran is uncovered to the west. I need this planet immeaditly.
2330
Berel is colonized, Kholdan maxes and goes on full tech mode.
2331
Primodius is colonized.
2334
Two more colony ships and a bunch of LR Laser long range patrols fan out.
2335
Waste is reduced by 20%. Computer is researched next. Artemis is colonized, Kholdan starts to send out small population support packages to outlying colonies.
2336
I encounter the Humans at Vox in the north.
2338
I colonize Herculis and chase away Bulrathis from a dead planet called Klystron to the east.
2341
Anraq is colonized.
2344
Paranar is uncovered, a bulrathi world.
2346
Nuclear engines are discovered and built into my colony ships.
2348
Vox is colonized, as well as Gion. The Klackon Menance expands like a cancer.
2349
Imra is colonized.
2354
Omicron maxes and thus adds 60 research points.
2356
Ukko is colonized. Not good. I have soon control over the whole galaxy, but this will hamper my diplomacy probably, as exactly this turn the Humans and the Silicoids call me and say hallo.
2357
I start trade with both, but they are already wary and at unease.
2358
I finally snatch the terran planet to the north, Crius. And elections begin. I got 5 votes, the Bulrathis 7 with one by the Psilons. So I can´t vote for them as they would win otherwise.
2362
The Silicoids ask for a NAP by themselves. I need more range to contact the other races.
2375
The last 13 years I spent trying to hyper tech myself to some levels and gain the level 7 fuel cells to establish contact. I should have rushed to death enviroment earlier then i did, though.
My points:
Diplomacy: Only the humans and the silicoids I have met. I am neutral (10 points) with the humans and amiable (14 points) with the rocks. At least I managed to get decent relations with both.
Expansion: My current planets number 13, though I should have managed to colonize those hostile planets more quickly. 3*13 equals 39. My population enables me to vote with 7 votes at the council. 21 points.
Technology: Looks better, though others may beat me here again. I managed from CPUs to Weapons: 10-8-10-10-11-11, which gives me a decent 60 points.
Altogether I have 144 points at 2375.
Not too shabby, but I think I could have made 150 with some more races met and another dead planet. At 2450 planets are not as important but tech and diplomacy is, so I will work on that now.
