Bay 12 Games Forum

so did ANYONE read the original evo games, specifically the first 3?

Meh it's only planetary motion, already learnt it in another class. So anyway for oyur first question, i guess 8 population would only fail on a 10 or lower, 5 only on a 25, and 4 prob a 45 or so. second question yes it depends on how close they got to the roll required. eg for a pop of 3 rolled 50, 1 pop would die and the other 2 would return back to the colony. BUT if you roll a 5, they could all survive and take a disease back or somehting similar, depends on how bastardy I feel at the time.

Third question, yes there probably is can't think of one of the top of my head though. and as for the first trun just sitting there, the point of that is so you can develop some tech or other evolutions or exploration ect.

that was just an example. 3 pop has about 65/100 to work, 2 would prob be 75-80 sort of?

Sorry Faden my mistake Haika and EagleV was who i meant. and yes "foraging" would do stuff, it would gain you a resource, eg wood, or some crap that how good it is would be determined by the roll.

well you really need to provide me with a description of each evolution and what it does, and i'll let you know. also yes you will gain population this turn, and no you cannot move population around like that to start a new colony the same turn, the next maybe not the one your moving them.

Turn 1

On some Planet in some galaxy, there was an island on which three four life forms were competing for supremacy. This is the tale of that island...and to a lesser degree the things on that island; but mainly the island.

In the beginning there were the Hebi, the aquatic peoples who inhabited the eastern sea, the Phelsuma small lizard like beings who cowardly shed body parts to escape being eaten. Finally there were the Draco, a slightly larger lizard people, who were not so cowardly, but still didn't like being eaten; and then there were the Apocrita the giant ant people living in their caves.

And now go forth and proliferate. Which means post your actions for this turn.

honestly i doubt that you'll lose it but we'll see.
