2250-51
2250.06.01 -- Humboldt begins a Physics Lab upgrade, and Bakangi starts work on clearing a province of dangerous wildlife. Given the size of the empire, it has also been deemed time for a second construction ship and work on that begins.
06.02 -- Biolab upgrade finished on Eskogg and a Physics Lab is next. These items drain the mineral supplies for now.
07.22 -- Research of the 'Teth' aliens has finished, now to be known as the
Qravadox Star Consensus. An avian race of materialists and individualists, they are polar opposites to us.
Unexpectedly, their territory actually does not block off further exploration/expansion possibilities for us completely.
Particularly interesting here is that we are starting to get close to the last two high-value mining systems ... We should not understimate the Qravadox though. They are a strong empire, a dozen systems and a population equal to our own. Overall we consider them to be very similar to us in capabilities.
08.01 -- Our new construction ship, the
Maggasch, is finished and sets off to rebuild mining stations that we were forced to destroy during the war.
08.17 -- The last usable province on Bakangi has been cleared. There are now two remaining to be developed when the population grows enough. Until we learn how to deal with active volcanoes, little more can be done to improve the planet.
09.01 -- A new colony ship is begun at Agglor Spaceport.
10.01 -- Biolab upgrade begun on Agglor, as the core planet improvements gradually continue.
10.17 -- Most of the debris analysis from the Kroll has not resulted in much, if anything, but some progress was made in the latest round towards Ion Disruptors. Eskogg has also finished a lab upgrade but fleet repairs, now completed, have consumed much of our mineral supply over the last couple of months so they will have to wait for more funding.
11.05 -- Eskogg begins clearing a province of toxic kelp.
11.24 -- More debris analysis, and another small increase in Ion Disruptors knowledge.
12.01 -- Physics lab upgrade finished on Humboldt, and a second one starts as the efforts to shore up our weakest field continue.
2251.01.01 -- Resources are now available to begin recruiting armies in the occupied territories. Two for Vi Talas, and four for Krolldar Prime are needed. Another two on Roknin Mog are already in place. The assault armies will be relieved when those are ready, and redistributed between various systems.
Also, the outer arm sectors have made significant progress this year in building their energy-producing capacity, and some taxed resources are now flowing in from them. It will soon be time to start building our first cruisers.
02.02 -- More progress towards Ion Disruptors as the debris analysis continues. It's slow progress, but we are gradually getting there.
02.09 -- Toxic kelp cleared on Eskogg, and a new science lab to focus on Engineering will be constructed.
03.22 -- The last of the needed lab upgrades on Agglor is finished. Toxic kelp clearing is next as there is a location that should be decent for physics research.
04.02 -- Adaptive Beauracracy research completed, and two more governors are recruited.
04.08 -- The Bhenn'Thell and Uthonian empires, the two largest in the core regions that we have encountered, are now rivals. Tensions appear to be growing in that part of the galaxy.
05.02 -- Active Countermeasures research completed. Also, the first of the three needed spaceports in the former Kroll territories is begun.
