The Enlightened will complete their first momentous Shrine network by building a shrine to that god of gods, Money, for the impressive sum of, erm, 2 Money. For the Enlightened know that while money isn't everything, it can get you everything. With happiness included as a bonus throw-in item.


Money

Current Amount: 8
Income: 8
Upkeep: -13
New Amount: 3


Science

Current Amount: 2
Income: 8
New Amount: 10


Materials

Current Amount: 11
Income: 6
New Amount: 17



What was the thing I receive now? Was it a wormhole generator type thing?

I can't count

Colonise the brown planet in the tier 1 tile which used to have an ancient in it

Money
Upkeep: -25
Bank 0
Income 12 = oh shit

Remove 3 discs from the 3 systems I have just colonised

Upkeep now: -13
Flip one colony ship for money- new balance 0

Research
Bank: 0
Income: 4
New balance: 4

Production
Bank: 7
Income: 8
New balance: 15

-25 upkeep? Isn't it just -21? You only did 4 actions, right - 3 explores and a research?

The new alliance is off to a shaky start

[Imperial Historian]

Yes your right, in that case keep the warp portal hex.Phew, i was sure I'd counted it right last night when i did another explore

Shrine go where?

[Khellendros]

Sorry D'rek, meant to say, homeworld hex.

[D'rek]

Ok. And yes, with all your cost-2 shrines built, you now have Wormhole Generators, meaning you can move ships through half-wormholes, explore anywhere (as long as you place the hex such that a half or full wormhole connects to you) and can influence through half-wormholes. You can still research Wormhole Generators technology but it serves no additional use (if you wanted it just to fill up a tech track).

You have -1 Money there unless I am reading you wrong.

Oh dear, machines which are not good with numbers? I see little future for the collective...

[D'rek]

By my count, CF, your upkeep should've been

3 +12 -13 = 2
0 + 6 = 6
1 + 2 = 3

I'm fairly sure the machines had money in the bank so I don't think he has a negative balance.

[Imperial Historian]

That income of yours is frightening twelve, it's turn 3! I'd be happy with that economy at the end of the game.

Also Cf's astonishing lack of materials makes me sad, if he even had one more cube of materials he'd be a serious powerhouse by now.

[twelve]

So what are the discovery tile you received D'rek?

[Imperial Historian]

She got the +8 money tile, it's back in the thread somewhere

But if you saw the amount of advanced material planets CF has available that can change in a heartbeat. I see advanced mining this turn for him.

I'm very happy with my income level. I got really lucky with the hexes and picking up advanced Econ round two. Having the three diplomatic relationships help out a lot too. I'd take a serious hit if Tats, D'rek or CF attacks me and I had to give one or more of those money cubes up.

Must have missed it. Did you posts EM's yet? Probably not as he hasn't said if he is claiming the hex yet or not.

[Tattersail_]

I am really looking forward to the new techs being drawn and the new day to begin.

[cerveza_fiesta]

dang.

current stores number should be 3, upkeep 13, income 12, final 2

the machines are experiencing viruses.

mah bad.

Yeah. I kinda had shit luck on the planet draws that way. My little high-tech interceptors will carry me for a bit though. Long range, cheap, good targeting bonus...

As Twelve said, there's always advanced materials research.
