Most people in his position would not want to be out in the field, far too dangerous, but something about this particular tower, in this particular place had struck his interest. He is not the sort of man you can advise, and regardless of the danger, and the fact that it is supposed to be a small exploratory team, he insisted on coming along. Maybe he knows something.. Maybe he is just a fool..

Just need to be careful not to kill our cover up top and food source. Gas could be a bit much if it gets out, but not bad. Maybe we can get it to work some how. Get one type that dissipates easily, but works for in side. So we can vent it out.

unless you still consider that "fancy sticks"

Remember, the Tribals have an abudance of water but the quality is low. If they can bring us the low quality water, we can set to purifying it and each of us get's a share.

Also, I suggest we set to upgrading our botanical research facilities to their highest level we can without a scientist hero unit as soon as possible. It will aid in everything we do from here on out.

I would happily give up some of our manufacturing ability for an over abundance food production. We are still going to need some manufacturing to preserve our foods once we grow them, canning and such, because ultimately we want to bring more trade to the region and barter it for services.

Here's an idea for increased food and water production (once we set up the proper facilities and resources)

Tubers, such as water lillies, are good at extracting toxins and poisons from water while at the same time removing excess C02 and adding in oxygen.

They also have the bonus of removing nutrients from the water to reduce algae and bacterial growth, and are occasionally edible and a side source of food. Thus the toxins we remove from the water will be turned into an edible food source.

On the topic of radiation, we could try and develop a hyperactive version of a certain mold found within Chernobyl, which not only absorbs radiation like a sponge but uses it as a fuel source for a growth boost. Even if we can't find this specific moss, most if not all plant based life in the post apocalypse has learned to not only survive but thrive in radiation, so it'd be easy to collect and decode their genomes with the right research.

Once set up, we can diver rivers of dirty water or the Tribals can bring us their supplies low quality water and we can immediately set to producing massive amounts of fresh clean water for sale and trade.

>>30821617
I personally don't mind. I too have a namefag but I refrain from using it here out of personal tradition.

>>30821650
>>30821650
Zombies have been driven back to their hive. So long as we don't go about doing stuff outside we should be fine.

>>30821571
We might need to investigate that road, but I don't see that helping in the short term.

>>30821579
>Trade.
Now this idea should not be thrown out, we know the tribals have some source of dirty water (probably connected to the issues with contaminated plants)
We have NO water source (unless I am mistaken) we derive small amounts of water from..well..I don't know where..but we have the means to purify the water we do get. I see a deal waiting to be struck here that could help both us and the tribals, and if that was not enough, help us figure out the mysterious mysteries behind the funky plants.

>>30821675
True. But for how long? If we start using heavy machinery like a canning machine. The noise made will draw some attention.

>>30821743
I doubt the zombies are what's going to get us. There are probably all sorts of other factions out in the jungle ready to kill the first dumbasses to make some noise.

>>30821571
>>30821673
The problem isn't that we need to purify the water, the problem is we don't have water TO purify. Once we secure large body's of contaminated water, then we will need to do something like you are suggesting.

>>30821673
I think looking for some of these would be a good idea while the zombies are still holding up.

>Big scouting mission out side, then explore what we find?
>>30821799
Nice, nice and very true.

I like the idea of making a plant armor to help hide us in the jungle Later on.

>>30821808
I have no way of knowing that these zombies are that way. I would like to be smart about it, If I can.

>>30821837
If I recall, the Tribals are in an abundance of water, and not to mention they would be able to scout for sources of water.

This is a Jungle no? Or a forrest? This means there is a plentiful supply of water keeping the large amount of plantlife alive, whether it be rainfall, underground springs, or nearby rivers.

If investigate the local plant life we will be able to determine where they get their water. If they focus on deep strong roots, then it's likely they get their water from the ground. If some of them have special leaves designed to act as bowls, they likely receive most of their water in the form of rain.

We can already purify any water we need for the moment though.

If we need to purify more than we can now, all we need to do is spend 1 resource on "build more water filters"

Rather than 1-3 resources on "research plant water filter" then 1 on grow a bunch of "water filter plants". I don't want to go into debt making your pet project that we DO NOT need.

Sometimes I wonder if you actually bother to apply reading comprehension what you respond to.

>>30822021
I'm sorry if I mistook you for fancy stick advocate anon, that's exactly what I propose we do as well, but with our lack of manpower I think we should pay the tribals in pure water to transport contaminated water to us.

Or should we do something else?

Again, you fail to realize I am not saying we should pursue this now.

What I am saying is that there is a difference between a water purifying machine and a hydropnic farm to replace it.

One has you throw out used filters and toxins and is a machine which likely uses fuel and electricity.

The other does not use fuel or any power whatsoever, instead relies on sunglight and the water and nutrients, and turns toxins into things you can eat.

Which would be more wasteful in the longrun?

>>30822356
How about this.

First we need to call a truce and end our bickering

Second if you get on board with diplomacy, trading, and scouting for a few turns to build up our resources.

That's.. Ok... That can serve to elevate headaches, and stop blood clots..

The medical uses are more obvious than others, but a potent enough blood thinner could be more fatal than poison,
especially in regards to hunting, if potent enough one relatively small wound could cause an animal to bleed out. Speculation aside we need to gather resources.

Eh, that's a gamble I'd rather take later.

On a side note, another midterm project (after we get resources) is biofuel production, which can use most of the abundant biomaterial in both in and around the base, and can be traded for [resource] and many many other things.

Our machines might not be specialized as the Memor vault tech, but we can compensate for this (much much later on) by developing more potent, fuel giving plants.

We know the tribals have access to caravans.

We decided to...attempt to forcefully breakthrough through the catalog. We had some systems online within the tower but well...it left much to be desired. We personally blame the fact we don't have an excess energy and that the tower mostly housed biz and manufacturing with research only being secondary. So we had to force our way through which we did...granted some fires were started inside and outside the tower. Throw in a few explosions and what we think was flaming zombies and or birds flying through the air. We got temporary access before the overstrain/grown and falling apart systems stopped working. It may have something to do with the above however.

I was under the impression we had to gather resources so we could first research such recyclers and then yet more resources to build them.

>>30827410
Haha, oh Jesus Genie.

We never asked or thought we could do that because that is just too perfect of a thing to have, and we never get to have nice things.

Well guys I say we call it a night and go on a harvesting spree Tuesday. I'm too tired to be clever about this right now, and don't want to ruin our potential.

>>30827456

I can second that.

I think we need to be generous towards our tribal companions with our newfound potential wealth.

>>30827456
Seriously. This whole time I was like:
>Get resources
>Use resources to research biomass recyclers
>Get more resources
>Build biomass recyclers

>>30827410
Can you add [Biomass Recycler's]

Tab so we remember we can do this?

You wouldn't believe how much it was killing me seeing the sheer stupidity or cleverness and I honestly couldn't determine which it actually was. Fuck.

>>30827456
ergh. I don't know how one could miss specialty+corp abilities. That shit can stack you know?

>>30827479
>Biomass Recyclers
YOU HAD THEM THE ENTIRE FUCKING TIME and of the BEST FUCKING QUALITY. NOT EVEN BLACK LISTED IS CERTAIN TO BE BETTER.

The benefits was built into the starter corp traits, but I will see about it maybe.

>>30827501
How would we have known to have them? I didn't see it listed.

Rolled 83

>>30827410

Well.

I wondered why we didn't get a specialty unit.

I'm going to go to sleep happy now.

>>30827525
Same.
Well, night all.

Let's get some shit done next tuesday now that we learned about this.

Rolled 97

>>30827517
corp trait+speciality bonus honestly didn't think it was really that complicated.

>>30827525
The closest thing was breeder trees but the slot is still open otherwise I may have to come up with something.

Rolled 42

>>30827501

Damming Genie. You do this when I only have internet on my phone?

Rolled 74

>>30827544
Do what?


Not to mention it looks like all my players are going to sleep...ah weird despite being spring break looks like the game might end earlier then usual.

>>30827534
>Corp trait
Most of us had completely forgotten what that means. Well, now we remember.

>>30827563
not all of us are on break, and it is like 3:30 am here genie

Granted I have played in your games that have gone up to 6:00 sometimes, but I gotta get up tommorrow.

Rolled 54

>>30827534
Alright, i'll try to come up with a neat specialty unit with the fluff for Tuesday.

So i take it I can't make anything as advanced as the V 101 interfaces. It ought to be something more similar to the shield bots are to had, but plant-oriented. Any tips/guidelines?

Rolled 47

>>30827582
Plants can pull some crazy ass shit watch some documentaries on them. Truth be told you may actually pull something off that is even better then the V101 could.

>>30827574
Sorry about that anon. I have been naughty with pushing schoolwork back...

>>30827582
Hmm those shields were of a psionic nature, which is generated by the bioelectric mechanisms of the brain, perhaps a similar effect can be replicated by plant based biolectrics

A sort of plant-psi

Rolled 21

>>30827567

Heh, it was never really explained...

(Not that it needed to be, finding out what we're capable of has always been one of the funniest parts of EDE's civs.)

>>30827501
>You wouldn't believe how much it was killing me seeing the sheer stupidity or cleverness
It's stupidity Genie.

It is always stupidity and when it's not, it's ignorance

Rolled 11

>>30827611
If you can figure out plant psi I will go order full on space sci fi food enough for a year and live off it.

>>30827615
hehehehh.

>>30827629
I don't know there have been a few times that has given me hope...but for the most part yeah. This time though holy hell it was killing me so much almost theres, connections seemingly made to be later revealed, ect.

Rolled 94

>>30827611

Maybe...

Probably not though...

>>30827602

They sure can, the trick is trying to figure out what sort of new heights of insanity a megacorp would take insane plants to.

And make it (initially) non-military in purpose, because we're not the military arm of Grow Corp (the bandits probably were).

Rolled 72

>>30827657

Don't say that, Genie. That sounds like a challenge.

Rolled 69

>>30827692
I hope it doesn't happen I would be miserable albeit healthier then I ever would likely be.

Rolled 50

>>30827658

It's the reconciling insanity with an agricultural or medicinal focus and not making it nonsensical that's puzzling my sleepy brain at the moment...we'll see how that goes.

>>30827611
It's not just bioelectric signals, otherwise cloning would work for studying Pay...and I gather it largely doesn't.

>>30827726
>It's not just bioelectric signals, otherwise cloning would work for studying Psi
I always though that only applied to heroes as cloned memor seemed psionically capable
If not, perhaps one day we could add a touch of magic

We never did see what Witch Luna could do in her forest territory. Memor Mojo was pretty awesome though.

Alternatively figuring out how to integret psy crystals into plants. Perhaps grinding them into a powder and using it as fertilizer so the plants integrate it into themselves.

Rolled 33

>>30827753

Well that's certainly promising but isn't getting bitten in the associated by Psy getting a little old?

Integrating crystals into plants is certainly a way of achieving plant psy, but I don't think it's *the* way. If that makes any sense.
Maybe if Godzilla will hush down a bit and this civ survives, we'll learn more than we ever wanted about plant psy.

On that note, don't rush into chopping stuff down. Our lower labs have been quiet thus far. EDE thought we knew about our biomass to resource recyclers that we had from the start. I doubt these two things are unrelated.
