Hope this could wok as some fluff.

They were a small group at first. But after the fall that all changed. No one know what to do and all were lost. But then a whisper, a calling, pulling them to some thing. That's when they came upon a work of art and a statue. They try to make sense of it. But any time they think about it or try all they feel is pain and anger.

Then a whisper became a voice "Hear me, I am Sithrak. Worship me and all will be healed." The people begin to lose there minds and control, Then one stands out of the group and says "if we help "Heal" the world will you let our people be free of your wrath and offer protection?"

Below are homeground samples.


Urban: Start with a large, gutted building with doors and windows boarded up, no reliable food sources.

Rural: Start with a small farm, less hostiles nearby, few places to scavenge.

Desert: Start with scarce water, scarce food, lots of space to build, more military and scientific locations nearby.

Forest: Start with nearby game and plentiful wood, monsters lurk the forests.

Island: Start in relative safety, fish are plentiful but irradiated, few nearby locations

Military Base: Start with small armory, reinforced buildings, old intelligence archives, MRE and ammunition stockpile, and tiny nuclear generator, but no reliable food source and attractive raiding target.

Science Lab: Start with extensive underground complex, scientific material to speed research, and experimental surface solar farm, but dangerous things lurking in some deeper labs.

Vault: Start with extensive underground complex, lots of raw materials, a geothermal spike, and a hydroponics lab.

Prison: Start with small armory, reinforced buildings, ammunition stockpile, but no reliable food source and attractive raiding target.

The above are homeground examples.

...a horrible cut off scream was heard from the museum basement. Dr. G and his assistant Hugo had been working late that night and there was nobody around to help. Hugo boldly ran down stairs to see what happened to the doctor and was shocked at what he saw. Dr. G was in a puddle of his own blood frantically trying to get his dismembered tongue back into his mouth. In its place was a forked snakelike toung dripping in black ichor. A voice overtook Hugo's mind. "I am sithrak, you will heal your fellow man and praise my name. I have marked Dr. G with my blessing. You will follow and protect him for the glory of my name" and thus was born "the followers of sithrak"

Something like "plants/botany", or something else similarly broad. We could either spread sustainable uber-crops everywhere, or develop carnivorous plants that let ourselves through but consume our enemies Like back in the good old memor days.

Alternately, nano-tech as a tech specialty would allow us interesting options too. Space tech has also been proposed before.

You are part of Grow Corp your facility is located in a jungle near the coast your tower was constructed in addition to house prized employees but also to conceal the lab facility underground and above ground. Unfortunately the facility above ground is completely overgrown and seemingly lost. While the underground facility has been in lockdown for a long time after a certain disastrous event. We don't know what exactly went wrong we just know whatever it is its still down there.

There are a few hydroponics located within the megatower and labs. Their built it so it wasn't mentioned but the real treasure is the manufacturing facilities. As for containment facilities we have only some stuff to house plants and a drunk tank/temporary holding cell so to speak. Depending on the crime punishment isn't super harsh or we throw them out.

They seem to be passing through.

They seem to be the only group who lives in the jungle. The place despite its flourishing is quite barren in everything but zombies and jungle. According to them there are a few hideouts and a couple bandit forces but thats it(damn CEO diplomacy). Monsters even are quite scarce and the most prolific zombies are nothing but average. The tribals say this place would be more popular but resources are near non existent even megacorps they claim would have severe difficulties. According to them its so bad that not even survivors really stuck around.

Samples acquired.

They come in two rough categories. Surface ones are more 'native' and seem to be mostly overgrown jungle. The stuff underground however is much more...problematic. CEO says we can safely blame the fact that many samples were engineered or modified somehow. This isn't even including the 'incident'.

We sent our forces out to cover our tracks which turned out to work against our favor as by that time the zombies seem to have largely lost interest(they don't exactly have the best attention span) by the time we sent forces out. Like completely sadly our dispatch of forces attempting to cover our tracks and uh disguise our already overgrown tower, camoflauge the entrances merely served to draw attention. Previously they had sorta followed the paths where they thought were signs of activity(which could send them quite the ways off) or outright spread out. Now however they have a focus for their attentions...our tower. Luckily our forces made it inside before they could arrive especially once the alarm among the zombies went off when they spotted some of our men.

It didn't take long for the zombies to get within the direct vicinity of our tower. After that they started groaning and spread around a a little bit while more slowly came in. A few however seem to just stand there dully staring off in some direction.

The CEO for the boards stupidity quite simply asked HOW we could even with all our population do even a FRACTION of the requested action to a huge ass megatower.

Rolled 54

>>30791047

Just look for a plant that produces something chemically similar to lutrophin and/or estrogen. Chew on a bit of that plant for a little bit (or refine the LH out of it and put it into a pill) in consistent intervals and you can more or less force ovulation. Even finding plants that possess pregnancy essential nutrients ought to help.

Or some sort of testosterone boost for men.

>>30791179
Well, I can't resist a supporting Genie complimented line of thought, but who knows perhaps the upper floors do hold something which will be of greater value than a fertility boost.

Still, I stand by that developing ways to increase our number turnout rate would be better pursued earlier than later.

Rolled 28

>>30791162
That is because the cheap rip off was for fluff. As for the other part you see THAT gets you a bonus makes the researching/doing easier.

The Memor thrived off of retarded plans really

Rolled 20

>>30791378
nah the problem was the Memor tended to have a stroke of genius within said plans that only needed some luck...or the proper heroes. Not to mention there were some times that the Memor had their asses kicked due to retarded plans and more.

Plenty of anons don't do that and boy do you miss some shit...especially considering the new insights you may acquire from already seeing more.

What's wrong with using plants to help pop growth? Plants can do a lot of things ranging from poisons to healing all kinds of diseases. We got a tribe near us that we could trade this to. Then we can work on food growth for more trade. But other than growing pop and making weapons not much to do. Other than find a good way to go down into the labs.

Rolled 58

>>30791418

Honestly, I'd prefer developing a plant that's designed to extract resources useful in synthetic endeavors and then have its (whatever) rich fruit be harvested so we can toss them into our nanite recycler and get what we need out of them.

Rolled 1

>>30791446

However, that's way too much for our current tech/ability level so fertility boosters or a plant with extremely strong fibers that can be woven into armor works for me.

Rolled 79

>>30791446
Then lets do this with the CEO helping. But we will need to get a recycler set up and a good base to work off of to help research.

>>30791446
Now there's an idea.

Alternateively, we could invent a plant or moss which is sensitive to specific resources and ores, which changes color when grown over it to help find veins of resources in the ground.

Rolled 73

>>30791418
How about we try to hire the tribe? See the second part of my post as to why.

Result of my comb through

Food: Plentiful
Water: Plentiful
So Can we assume we already produce way more food than we can eat? If so how much?
Enough to trade to the tribals?
Can we hire them as scouts?
Next turn I prepose diplomacy on them

>Materials: Plentiful(supplies)
This also caught my eye. Can it be defined?

Rolled 92

>>30791560

Megatowers come with shit-tons of supplies that are applicable to the given corp's specialty.

Don't know what that'd be in our case, but there you go.

I can get behind hiring tribals with our excess food/water (maybe even a resource point or two) to drive the zombies out of our basement.

Be a good way for Genie to show us how tribals are supposed to be too.

>Basic 1
CEO Diplo with the tribals, offer them food/water in order to drive the zombies out of our tower. If food/water isn't enough, offer them 1 point of resources for it.

Rolled 72

>>30791627
The tower is clear of all hostiles with exception to the ones on lockdown. It's zombies down there.

Rolled 44

At the moment you produce an excess(damn your botany) on the food while water is covered by using purifiers.
Certainly.

>>30791605
"hah at that price what you want scouted?"

>>30791627
You have NO zombies in the tower ONLY the surrounding surface labs from what we can tell.

Rolled 69

>>30791653
*I doubt it is zombies

>>30791653

See: >>30790486

They're in the direct vicinity of our tower. They haven't really decided to come in yet (especially not in force), but they're there and menacing at us.

So fine.

Get rid of the zombies in the vicinity of our tower*

>>30791666

On the other hand, that might let the zombies know there's something up with the tower.

So, whatever.

Rolled 92

What is consensus?

It just occured to me, on the topic of boosting our fertility, that, once we reach the stage when we have both the resources and technology, we may be able to create a plant-based gestation pod for a major pop, which would function similar to flesh based gestation pod.

Cabbage patch kids anyone?

That was a joke, of course

>>30791605
>>30791658
See that's the thing about haggling.

You offer an intentionally low price, and they offer an intentionally high price, then you meet at the middle.

If you offer errything from the get go, there's little else you can do but pay their price at our expense.

>>30791813

Indeed. Well so long as we're paying such a massively high price I suppose we should have them scout the lower labs eh?

Rolled 90

>>30791658
"At that price do you think it's going to be easy? We need your most elite scouts for a recon mission, we had a small containment breach and need to know the effects it had on the surrounding environment. Unfortunately zombies are all around our base. we need all data on the containment leak you can obtain. If you can do something about the zombies there will be a bonus in it for you.

>>30791834
This however, is an acceptable way to make sure we get the best of the price offered.

what sort of bonus are we gonna give them?

Would you guys be able to fuck the ones near us up a bit and lure them off a ways?

>>30791877
Hmm, and at a time where we were supposedly rather scare on resource.

Ah well, I suppose having someone scour every nook and cranny with little risk to us

and with them understanding the dangers AND we remind them that the world is full of unknown unknowns, then I suppose it should suffice.

Oh, and this is a nice development. It means water is once again a valuable form of currency, so I suggest a future project would be to reverse engineer cacti and other plants which absorb and store water from the air and ground.

Fair enough. In that case seeing as we are drastically overpaying, consider this your "signing bonus" and make yourselves available for future jobs at good rates and you have got your self a deal"

Dude, quit being an asshole in diplomacy with people we want to be our friends. I'd rather overpay and be in a poor position on their good side than secure their services being a typical megacorp for a decent price.
