You get given your assignment, find a rare metal, rumored to exist on a distant planet, and bring it back. But, right before you set out, you learn that the governments of other planets as well as space pirates are also after this metal, you must beat them to it.

You place the mines. You find the source and it has several different minerals there, but you have only taken a sample of one when you hear a roar. You run, carrying the sample back to your cave, when you see the beast. It it huge and grabs a tree and throws it like it was paper. The mines go off and temporarily confuse it, but not for long. You only have a couple minutes until it gets to your cave, and there is no way your fence will hold up against it. You have to act fast, what do you do?

You leave the supplies and take off. After a quick call in you have the coordinates you need to head for.

You contact Zago and he tells you that is true, but he is counting on the friendship between the two to alleviate the fact. What do you do?

Can I reach the ship?

They are whispering among themselves, you catch a few words and decide to listen in. "I heard that if we provide a breeding ground we were be rewarded." his partner immediately replies, "be quite if someone finds out about our plan we could be in trouble." What do you do?

You reach the ship and hastily take off. You manage to get out of reach but all of your supplies are on the planet. You shoot at it but that just makes it madder. You could possibly injure it with torpedoes, but this is unconfirmed. What do you do?

You fire two proton torpedoes, and watch as they head towards the beast. They strike the side and explode. A couple minutes later you see the results, one torpedo hit and carved out an indentation, not quite all the way through, the second one hit and punctured through, destroying what was near the hole. The beast died from it wounds, but fell on the cliff collapsing the cave with your supplies. Your scanners show that the animals for miles have bolted and probably won't be back for a while. What do you do?

I scavenge the supplies I also transport the creature (It'll get a good price in the animal hunting market). I also try to get a few more samples of the minerals.

You arrive at his base and drop off the minerals, he pays you 250 Univerchips and refills your supplies. There are several nearby systems, but the trader is probably going to be pissed when he finds out you scammed him. So do you go to a further system instead?

Your ships A.I. activates the moment you get out the cables, "Are you seriously thinking of taking that, it easily weighs over a hundred tons (metric), if you try to tow it the ship will not be able to go any higher than the length of the cable." However, the meat is edible and you fill up your supplies with it and nearby fruits. You go back to the source and mine a sample, it turns out to be a little gold and a lot of copper, which your government pays you 150 Univerchips for. There are no more sources in this system, but there might be in others, what do you do?

I didn't think I could but I was hoping you'd let it pass. guess that didn't work. At any case I stock up on supplies by cutting the creature. I make sure I have plenty of stock. Do I have a warehouse or some area to store stuff? if I do I make the trips necessary to stock up on supplies. Once these are done I check around the stores using the com to see what is available to buy. If nothing is available I go to the next system.
