1 Jan, 2390 - How much flu to bring in the open minor internal systems of Valo and Castra? Valo has one Class D 30% world and that’s it. OO Raskae Majoris was 103 with three planets despite none being Class M. Hopefully I can bring them in cheaply. Valo is 86 and Castra 103 with nothing in it. Wow, that’s not happening.

13 Mar – Event – Romulan Supernova – The Romulan sun went supernova!

Advanced Warp Nacelles tech is done, next is Mineral Safety Refining for 13 months for unlocking the building called Mineral Refinery Complex

25 Mar - Survey done for Choren system which has no planets and is near the Anarchy

12 April -Since Risa has overcrowding, I spend 336 to build a City District here to give me +5 housing and then two Clerks that make trade and then it has an upkeep of 2 Energy. I also order one at Sepux Ia, Ag District at Mayara Ia and Mining at Vet’tara Secundus and Energy at Kardex Prime and Tiba Secundus and Mining one at Terana Secundus

13 May – First Contact – we find a new race in the system called Emrana, we are almost done with the first one, once finished I’ll send him here – it’s next to Choren and near me

23 June – Peace with Cardassians and Romulans

29 June – We have established relations with the Farian Syndicate near the Bolians on the far side of the galaxy. I send him to make first contact with Emrana

6 Aug – Research done for Tricorders and next is Impermeable Compounds which unlocks the upgrade captial building called Star Capital for 26 months.

7 Sept – I order an upgraded captial on Dorvan Prime;Ag District on Sepux III; Energy on Astra Menta Prime; Ag on Mayara Prime

I have enough unity for my next tradition! What do I want? I can unlock four options and as a reminder they are in diametrically opposed things, so by taking Research I stopped taking Development.

Here are my two options:


Defense vs. Conquest –
Defense has things like Soldiers providing unity or more HP for Starbases. Conquest has things like better fire rate, evasion, and damage in battles

Commerce vs. Welfare – Commerce has things like Specialist give trade value and improved mining and food production. Welfare has things like +50% planetary build speed, amenities usage -10% and upkeep from jobs -15%.

Both Commerce and Welfare feel economic and similar, but I feel like a nation that cannot declare most wars should likely grab Defense, and either Commence or Welfare would work. The first two Commerce includes one free District in every new colony. There’s a Welfare one that increases planet stability by +5 later which I love, I wish the Welfare tree were more about making folks happy, but since both are here I’ll grab Welfare now which unlocks the tree.

7 Oct – Research done in Plasma Site Cleaning, next is Dilithium Crystal Chambers for 14 months to unlock Warp Components

An unidentified fleet is heading to Coridan next to Sol, I order my fleet there to meet it

15 Oct – The enemy fleet arrives and our Sol fleet is there too and they begin fighting

22 Nov – We unlock the next First Contact and gain 2500 unity

27 Nov – Their fleet flees

7 Dec – The fleet from Rixudex arrives and joins us

2 Jan, 2391 – Event – Captain Dad – We have an event in Beta Leetor Prime where our colonists go to a secret garden to remember loved ones. I can dedicate a bench to a loved one and gain 2k unity or sit and watch the birds and it gains 5 stability. I choose the unity gains

5 Mar – New Research in Mineral Safety Refine Protocols is done, next is Optimized Alloys allowing the building called Updated Forges for 24 months.

We finish a new world

Beta Deri Prime – Class M, 80%, size of 19, Alpine, has one open spot and job, has 8 Mining Districts so I name this a Mining World.

I order my Con Ship to build below the Tanugans in Mar’zek

9 Apr – We establish First Contact with the Hupyrian Autocracy to our bottom in three systems

27 Apr – The Boslic Anarchy has agreed to integration! I assign the open envoy

7 May – I order in Dorvan Prime Research Labs; Terana Prime – Upgraded Capital;

I order Farian led Colony Ship to Endra IIA

4 Sept – Construction finished in Mar’zek! This has 1 Deuterium which I won’t mine, and then one Class L planet:

Mar’zek IIa – Class L 50%, Arid size 15, Tectonic Magma trait which gives Metallurgist +2 Alloys, so I could make this a Forge world. I start terraforming it

Next is Weneb to my left with a Class M world

I order Mining District in Dep’reth Prime; Energy – Vet’tara Prime; Upgraded Colony – Bitrox Ia; Ag – Tibe Prime;

5 Oct – Dilithium Mining Chambers research done, next is Global Energy Grids which allows the building Energy Grid Networks for just 4 months
