The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away. Oh no, not that we have suffered losses, but I fear it will come soon. Our landing site was a land of plenty, but beyond that site is a very hostile world, and those demonic "boils" roaming the countryside seem bent on our destruction -- with the exception of one that some witchcraft-using heretics in our ranks have tamed. Sigh...it IS a hostile world here, and the Lord works in mysterious ways. I pray for us every night.

Turn to FonnParr.

"Colonel, we MUST train our troops against these 'Mind Worms'." argued the defense secretary, "The Command Centre should be our top priority, give me the resources and I can build one for you in 5 years!".

"5 years?" retorted the health adviser. "In 5 years we will not even have a base if you control the resources. We need to grow, If you can wait 8 years you can have your precious resources AND the base will have enough workers for the future of our society."

"What you propose will make us vulnerable to atack for too long."

"Decisions, decisions. What should I do?" Thought FonnParr. "That borehole looks very tempting to get the command centre up and running , but with more workers we can have both growth and minerals"

Sorry Sir,. it seems the...plans to make formers were left back on earth...and we have no way to research them either.

Crusader Unity "Miriam" Snoutpopper paced the halls of the provisory "command center" (not yet worthy of the name, but serving at least a shadow of the function) in Brno, the proud capitol of God's arm on Planet. Ahh... the General was back from his meeting.

"Well? The attack pl --"

"Badly, I fear."

I sighed, more disappointed than angry. "Are you to blame, or --"

"That band of heretics again... not as proud a troupe this time. Perhaps we should have punished them. For free thinkers, they were quite... unthinking. Almost automated in their actions."

"Be brief and to the point. Chapel begins at six."

"They ignored our orders to temporarily bypass that strange alien structure... the one that oddly healed and transformed our division last year while transfixing it until December 31st. They remain there still, vulnerable."

"And the mindworms?"

"...will attack on January 1st. I ordered those heretics' beloved Spore Launcher unit to join them... will your beloved Bible tell me if it can help to hide them from these atrocities?"

"I do not know, general. You speak as if this were a game. Well, the Bible is not a rulebook. And if it were, many rules would be missing... and if they weren't no-one could keep them all in their head. General, it is not your fault. Get some sleep, you will need all your wits and strength of will to avoid such problems in the future. Dismissed."

Turn passed to FonnParr. "Always Investigate Monoliths" de-checked (GRRRRR).

I just resent the turn to him and also sent him a PM. Apparently he was last online a week ago, so it's indeed possible that he has been battling the desease USC mentioned. Let us hope that science finds a cure for it soon.

As far as I can tell, UnityScoutChopper has the turn. It certainly hasn't reached me yet.

Hopefully this is just a speed bump we've hit, more than a week between turns is a bit much.

Mesmerized by the eerie glow of the Monolith stood before them the scout troop suddenly left their post and one by one placed a tentative hand on the arcane structure.
Suddenly, a bright light filled the surrounding area almost as far as the base they had left undefended behind them, washing each one of them in some sort of positive energy.

"At least if one of those worm boils tries to take the base we will now be able to take the worms instead."

If you mean the pods... they don't call it podlotto for nothing! Oh well, think of it as free unit experience and money, if you're prepared.

If you mean the special free units, don't worry, I don't think anybody exactly has them crawling out their nether regions. Personally I've received one, plus there's one that seems to be out there somewhere, but danged if I can find it.
