Also, It puts us in a great position if we meet some non-human enemies. Just think of how quickly we could get everybody behind us!

Also; finding a alternative to the one planet that everyone wants to live on will allow us to separate completely from them. Allowing us to concentrate on surviving.

As for the map: I'm having a hard time with it. It's not that it's that hard to paint, it's just that my willpower to finish it is very, very low for some reason. Rest assured, it will get done.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

If you guys want to, it's completely possible but will wear you're colonists down and make it somewhat hard to survive [Having to find a source of water, hydroponically grown food, growing 'air-farms' where CO2 that colonists breathe out is transported to be converted to O2 to be transported for colonists to breathe.

I vote we stick to the gaian planet. Our population will grow much faster, and we'll have more resources not spent on survival, allowing us to get back into space faster.

Fair enough, ok i vote gain planet, but as far away from either side as possible while still having a good area to settle, also try to maintain some miliary capabiliy so other sides dont try to strong arm us into helping them, army wont need as much work as others will even to maintain the same level. because we will not be expending troops

Well, let's first probe the system. We'll decide then.

It's a very, very low chance there will be. Anyway, it's on it's way.

You do some basic system scanning, what with the on-board systems the probe isn't too accurate, and some of the things you just can't determine with the on-board tech.
Spoiler: Part 1 (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Part 2 (click to show/hide)
((Some parts are blacked out because you're scanners couldn't determine EVERYTHING about all the planets in the solar system, only the most obvious.))

The Gaian planet has a toxic atmosphere. So it's not all that great.

I think we should check out the sixth ice planet. It seems like a good spot (to me at least). It may take a long time to Terraform, but it's safe and already has a ton of water on it. If it's still too hostile for life, then we can try the third or fourth planet and see what they are like. As far as this system goes, it seems quite habitable at a glance.
