Broken Teleporter Artifact


Broken Teleporter Artifact

Our exploration has led us to an artifact of Precursor origin, a device once capable of bending the fabric of spacetime to instantly relocate their vessels to chosen coordinates. Regrettably, the ravages of time have not been kind. The artifact's pinpoint precision has faded into erratic uncertainty - our researchers warn that activation will now result in a random spatial displacement. Nevertheless, this unpredictable characteristic could be tactically advantageous, providing us a means to displace unwelcome fleets into the vast, unknown reaches of space.

Choice Outcome
Take the artifact.

Artifact goes to the vault.

Attempt to deconstruct the artifact into its original components.

The valuable elements that make up the artifact will provide us with some instant credits.

When this drone is deployed, it acts as a small but lethal ship in battle. This could prove useful or profitable.

Choice Outcome
Store the drone in our vault.

By storing the drone, you can analyze its advanced technology and integrate it into your fleet, potentially boosting your fleet's capabilities in future engagements.Gain a charge for the artifact Robotic Star Drone.

Sell the drone for credits.

Pods


Pods

Our scouts report that significant portions of {PLANETNAME} are inhabited by sentient pod-like creatures. These pods bond with other sentient life. Those who are bonded by these pods experience heightened intelligence but also display an alarming lack of morality. What are your orders?

Choice Outcome
Excellent! Require our colonists to be 'introduced' to these pods.

Fragile Crust


Fragile Crust

There is a disgusting amount of organic life crawling across the surface of {PLANETNAME}. It is a place of rot and refuse unsuited for our perfect forms. A massive fault line runs across the planet's crust. Our advisors suggest that a few well placed detonations could clear out this organic waste and expose more of the planet's wealth for collection.

Caustic Vapors


Caustic Vapors

{PLANETNAME} has vast reserves of trapped underground gasses. They occasionally erupt and cover city sized areas in grey ash. The vapors are heavy enough that they push all of the oxygen out of the affected region and kill most organic life. Fortunately the vapors have little effect on us and seem a reasonable precaution against the proliferation of organic life. What are your orders?

Earthquakes


Earthquakes

{PLANETNAME} is tectonically active, with regular earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. On the plus side, this is bringing a lot of valuable minerals up the surface, where it will be far easier to extract. On the downside, a lot of people are being killed by lava. Your engineers think they can stabilize the crust to stop the earthquakes, but the decision on whether to implement it hasn't been made yet. What are your orders?

Swamped


Swamped

Upon landing on {PLANETNAME}, you quickly realize that it has been inhabited before. Beneath the northern ice, explorers have found a ruined starship with an active Leaching Field module which will reduce the shield strength of enemy ships in battle. Your colonists believe they can extract the module, but the resulting melt will flood much of the arable land on the planet; the climate change will kill most of the unique native species.

The primitive species that occupies {PLANETNAME} was once far more technologically advanced, and accidentally ruined their civilization in some kind of nuclear war several hundred years ago.

A strange fungus on {PLANETNAME} has begun infecting our colonists with an illness that is immune to our medicine. Although our doctors can treat the symptoms easily enough, they have no hope of finding a cure, and the risk of contagion is high. With this disease afflicting us, our colony will never see its full growth potential. Some argue that we should cull the diseased to protect the rest of the colony. Others, notably the diseased, argue against this. What are your orders?

High-G Animal Racing


High-G Animal Racing

Colonists on {PLANETNAME} have taken to breeding and racing a local species of squat, four-legged animals. The harsh gravity of the world makes the races particularly gruelling, and footage of injured animals has caused animal rights activists around the galaxy to demand this barbaric practice be stopped. But it's become a big part of the local culture, and the colonists won't be happy if we end the races. What are your orders?

They've resisted all attempts to communicate with them, and have relentlessly attacked your colony since you arrived.

Funny Tasting Food


Funny Tasting Food

Food grown on {PLANETNAME} has a distinct taste. Locals don't notice anything unusual, but off-world visitors find it exceedingly strange and even exotic tasting. Of late, the outside world has developed a faddish taste for this colony's food, and there has been much demand for the export of it, even to the point of leaving this colony short of food.

Two giant Precursor structures orbit the poles of {PLANETNAME}. They seem to have been used to somehow terraform a Promethion gas giant into a habitable world. We are able to use the Promethion stored in them to increase the range of any ships built by our shipyard. Our scientists think they can do more with these giant machines and would like your permission to study them further. What are your orders?
