As many of you might have noticed, I'm not as good as keeping a popular game up on the front page as i used to (believe me, i'm trying :/ ), so if this doesn't get popular, this migth be my last forum game here....forever... This game is a somewhat difficult, yet still understandable stradegy game, and it has a storyline:

in the year 2012, the year that the Mayan calendar ended, the volcano Dara (a.k.a., Yellowstone) erupted, creating such a catacalysmic event, that mankind had to evacuate the entire Earth to many planets and planetoids that could support mankind: Mars, Titan, and Boros-UV-7. This is the story of mankind, as they began to settle on these new worlds.

Each planet has there ups and downs:

Mars: Basic planet, but kinda far from sun, so is cold.

Titan: Saturns old moon, Titan was propelled out of Satunrs orbit by a comet impact. It's current postion is a sister planet of Venus, as it is about the same distance from the Sun. Somewhat hot, and water is slightly scarce.

Boros-UV-7: A new planet found out past the Kieper belt, although it can support life, most plant life on it uses lunosynthesis (gets energy from the dark), as it is very dark, and windy.

Choose your new home wisely, as it'll affect your ability to research and use buildings, powerplants, and so on, as well as what the population needs/wants.

Locations:

Mountains: Windy, cold, great place for skiing, and not for cows

Valley: Warmer than mountains, still windy, some fertile ground

Plains: Can get windy, very fertile ground, not many rocky areas, some water

Coast: Wet, can get windy, warm, great fertility, some rocky areas

Desert: Dry, hot, not much wind, little fertilliy, lots of sun and sand (even on Boros-UV-7).

Location of your colony also plays a good factor, as the surrondings affect output of energy, minerals, and colony mood


To begin, you are given a small colony of 50 people, a coal plant, 5 farms, and a coal mine:

Colony Name:
Colony Location:
Colony Planet:
--------------------------------
Colony Age: 1 day
Colony Population: 50
Pop. Gain: +1 every 10 days
Money: 500 credits
Money Income: 50 credits every 2 days

Power Plants: Coal(1x) [Energy output: 50 houses]
Mines: Coal(1x) [Mineral output: 5 coal a day
Farms: Basic(5x) [Food output: 20 food a day]
--------------------------------
Storage:

Coal: 100 (-5 a day for power)
Food: 250 (-1 per person a day)
--------------------------------
Colony Mood: Average
Colony Government: None
Colony Laws: Basic
--------------------------------
Extras:

OK, now as I am not on here very much, you will eventually understand stuff while you play (or if you ask, I'll explain it ).

Also, if anybody asks (which probably they wont). This is a RTS game (Real-Time Simulation/Stradegy game), so I will update it only once every day (give weather information, add stuff to players colony sheets, update what they build etc.), but you are free to type in here (as long as it has something to do with the game :/ ). You and another players colony can communicate if you want, as long as you in the same location, on the same planet (interstellar travel and global travel will be availible later as you get better buildings and stuff).

That will work. Now, you don't have to post the colony sheet all the time, I will do that when you make an update to it (build something, as an example).

DAY 1

Boros-UV-7: Windy in the mountain ranges and valleys, chance of rain in the coast, average day in plains, chance of dirt devils in desert.

Now, simply, you have to decide what you will do off the weather reports, and tommorow, I'll tell you what happens (if anybody joins, I'll say if you good or not, and you go by this)

ok, now as i said earlier, i won't respond until tommorow, so, like i said, it's an RTS. Think of from today to tomorow as "express building" for the library, as buildings usually take several weeks or months to build

First I tell my People to make an extra farm as There are 25 People that consume 1 Food each day...Which means I lose 25 Food each day While my Farms Produce only 20..
So If this continues for a very long time I can lose alot of food...
So Better make some Farms!
