Hmm. Our last zoo was Boatmurdered... I dub this one Headshoots.

We should have sections dedicated to different environments - an aquatic section, a prehistoric section, a normal exhibits section, and a section that's a massive safari, if that's doable. Make the gaps all walkers.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

Each chamber is about the size of our old map. This will be wonderful.

Honestly, I want our name to be some clever pun combining MM lore and the old joke that the moon is made of cheese, but since I can't think of any of the top of my head, I'll go with Headshoots for now.

Don't worry too much about the one mistake, Smoke Mirrors. Your character was memorable for all the demonology and story writing.

I’m running a game/mechanics test called Fate/Mechanics Test. Feel free to check it out.

Have you ever been to one of those places where you can drive through an area where the animals are (mostly) free to roam a pretty naturalistic area?
A Lion Country Safari-type thing, if you've ever been there.

Well, if we want a Bay12/DF reference and a reference to the joke about the moon being made of cheese, we could always go Cheesemaker? I know there's a really long running thing on the forum called the 'The Littlest Cheesemaker', in the DF CG&S, though I only vaguely remember looking at the OP of the thread and haven't gotten further than that. Should probably give it another swing sometime.

There aren't any cars, but I could set up a walking path that looks like that.

Hell yeah, +1 to the idea!

As for the name, I wouldn't be against Headshoots, but I myself would like to prefer Cheeseball.

Perhaps a poll could be made for the new name?

... no wait, pools can’t be reopened once locked, can they.

Nevermind, +1 to Headshoots.

I can unlock the poll, I just didn't think it'd be helpful to open one since the players were suggesting options.

With four votes for Headshoots, two for Cheeseball, one for Cheesemaker, and one for Yilocaf Ranul, we are now the Headshoots Facility.

The Headshoots Facility

Spoiler: Zoo Map (click to show/hide)

January, Year One.
It is the year 2120, and mankind is engaged in the titanic effort of establishing colonies throughout the solar system. On Earth's Moon, a massive storage facility has been repurposed for use in teaching the citizens of the Moon about the wildlife of their homeworld. This is the story of the Headshoots Facility and the first wild animals on the Moon.


I like the sections plan. I'll keep it in mind when adding exhibits. For now, I've blocked off the other sections and begun construction of the "normal animals" segment in Chamber 4. I'll save Chamber 1 for the savanna safari exhibit when we have more money. Just so we can get started, I've taken the liberty of picking a tiger for our first animal, buying a Mexican restaurant to take care of our guest's needs, and hiring a zookeeper. I also added a flower garden and a koi pond for decoration.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I picked the tigers because their enjoyment of plants would make it easy to get the Excellence in Exhibit Design award. After spending our starting $10,000, getting the award and fundraiser, and doing a few more tweaks, we currently have $21,965. What should we do next?

Also, what do you all want to do with that central hub? It's the first thing guests see when they walk in, so I figure we could do something cool with that.

Lions?

As for the central hub, let's put a lava pool there once it's unlocked and money isn't so tight.
