Take a look around your Ranger for it.Your first assignment is to construct a forward observation base to research the Mule lifeform present in this system. Use your Engineer to build an Extractor, First Stage Distributor and 3 Photon Processors. We advise that you also use your Geneticist to gather as much information as possible about the Mules.Your next assignment is to attempt to duplicate the Mule lifeform and re-seed this planet. You will be required to build a Gene Pod and some Mules. Move the Mules to the marked zone to show the Ethereals we mean well.The Ethereals seem pleased with your progress. This planet has the potential to be very rich with life. You are to collect 1400 units of GOOP from the surface by recycling the forests and dead creatures.The Ethereals have marked two specific zones for re-seeding. You should create Mules to live in the Mule Zone and any kind of life for the Biomass Zone. Spies have found out that our enemies are not too happy about our success with the Ethereals so watch out for sabotage attempts or even all out assaults.Again, the Ethereals have set out an area for you to re-seed. We imagine that this planet will take a lot longer than previous efforts so you should take a Ranger to look after your creatures. Our scanners have also picked up a form of life on the surface that doesn't match anything we have met before. Research this if you can.This world contains zones which the Ethereals have marked for special development. You must populate these zones to succeed in stabilising the biosphere and earning the gratitude of the Ethereal race.The Ethereals request that you repopulate their bio-zones. This must be done to complete the eco-system on this planet. The zones are clearly shown on the map.Look for the Ethereal zones. Find out what species you need to place there and create them. You must do this to appease the galactic overlords and bring natural harmony to the planet.Create a natural balance on this worldlet by filling the Ethereal zones which appear on the surface. Only then will the Ethereals believe that you have the planet's best interests at heart.On the surface of this otherwise untouched world you will find Ethereal zones. Use your technology to fill them with what the Ethereals require and you will succeed.Pay close attention to repopulating the zones which have been marked by the Ethereals. This is the only way you can rebalance the ecosystem of this planet. Should you manage this, you will earn points from the Ethereals.Obey the wishes of the all-powerful Ethereals when they ask you to provide eco-forms for the zones marked on this world.You must gather in your vats a total of %d GOOP in order to fulfill the wishes of the Ethereals. Then and only then shall the planet be in a state of harmony, capable of sustaining itself without further interference.Your objective on this world is to collect GOOP. You will need %d GOOP. Use whichever method you wish, but make sure that you do not displease the Ethereals by failing to store any less.Be prepared to extract GOOP from the surface of this ecologically unbalanced planet. The Ethereals state that it is the only way to achieve equilibrium here. They calculate that you need %d. Do not fail them.It is vital that you collect GOOP on this world. To collect less than %d is to incur the wrath of the Ethereals. That would be a bad mistake for pain-feeling flesh and blood mortals like yourselves.The Ethereal overmasters demand that your team collects %d of GOOP from the skin of this ecologically unsound world. Be quick, and be sure that if you fail, you will have several dimensions of hell to deal with.You have important work here. Gather %d of GOOP to appease the Ethereals. This planet should more than this if you are diligent and exercise care. Carry out these orders at once, mortal.The Ethereals wish you to mine or recycle GOOP. Use whichever method you wish, but make sure your total is %d before reporting back to the galactic master-race. Travel now to the planet's surface.There will be conflict on the face of this planet. The Ethereals do not approve, but it is of supreme importance that you destroy any other races operating on this world. Make sure you hunt down every last survivor.You are bringing war to this peaceful place. You must remove all traces of the enemy races operating here. Make sure you carry out these orders quickly and efficiently. Your government is counting on you.You directive is to erase the meddling races which are damaging the biosphere of this planet. Use as much force as you deem necessary, but make sure that no element of the enemy survives.There is a race of creatures despoiling the surface of this world. You are tasked with eradicating them and restoring order to the world. Be prepared for a large-scale conflict, and make sure that your team undergoes the minimum risk.Although combat displeases the Ethereals greatly, it is vital to your government that you terminate the operations of another race on this planet. use whichever tactics you are happiest with. Just get rid of the interlopers with the minimum of disruption.There is harm being done to this once peaceful world. When you land, it is your duty to destroy the intruders who are scarring the very biosphere here. make sure that neither beings nor buildings survive. It is the only way.Prepare for battle! On this world you will need to fight an alien race. Make sure that you are the victors by using as much force as you can. Be aware that the foe might launch surprise assaults on your base.Good work. Your engineer has constructed the base well, and it is of an adequate size. Do not pause, though. Other planets await your intrepid team. And they won't be quite as easy as this.You have done well by bringing animate life to this world. The Ethereals are pleased with your growing population. Keep going - you are shaping the biospheres of other worlds and it is surely vital work.Your governmental organisations are satisifed with your efforts at GOOP production. Truly your team is adept at bringing better ecologies to the far-flung planets crying out for them. Science is proving itself master over every planet we explore.The Ethereals wish to offer their congratulations. Your plucky band has stabilised the biosphere of this world. You have populated the zones well, and from now on, life on this planet should burgeon. It is the way forward for this and other galaxies. Be proud.You have done well. Your enemies lie broken and the planet is restored to universal harmony. Your team of mortals are proving themselves skillful at balancing the bio-zones of the worlds throughout this quadrant of the Ethereal empire. Continue, mortals, and face the next challenge.Once more you have satisfied the Ethereals on their imperial thrones. Another planet has been given a stable biosphere and the ecology will now flourish thanks to the application of your still-primitive scientific techniques. It is time to move on. Bigger and more dangerous worlds await.You are proving to be an expert in the field of gene-management. Your creatures are an asset to the biosphere of this world, and your plantation programme is highly effective. You are also adept at dealing with those on the world who would counter your plans.The Ethereals offer profound thanks for what you have achieved on this planet. Not only are the meddlesome foe vanquished, but you have restored the rhythms of life to the balanced state they require. A truly impressive victory!The Ethereals wish to congratulate you on an impressive set of base structures. You have utilised the raw materials of this world well, and have established harmony here. A feat worthy of note. Rest assured that the Ethereals are currently pleased. Or what passes for it in their emotions.You are king of this world. By conquering the foe and establishing an orderly eco-system, you have given this world a very good chance of flourishing long into the future. This pleases the Ethereal masters very much.A masterly feat. This hasn't been an easy planet to bring an eco-structure to, but you have excelled yourself here. As you travel the galactic systems, you are leaving living monuments on each planet. It will be a fitting epitaph when you die.Once more you have impressed the Ethereals with your imposition of a well-regulated biosphere on this world. They say that there is much hope for you in this galaxy. And possibly in many other zones of the universe. Keep going.This is a supreme victory. Your defeat of the other races places you amongst the ranks of great leaders like Alexander the Great, Napoleon, Zorgor III and the mighty Theg of Fretaxa. The Ethereals have earmarked you as special. Do not let them down.You sweep through the galaxy's spiral arm, leaving bountiful planets thriving in your wake. You are becoming someone of note. Even Cardinal Spidron of the Holy Stenifari Empire has heard your name. Continue to do such good work and soon the entire galaxy will respect you.Victory on this world was never certain. Yet your team of experts have pulled off a masterful coup. Rendering the other races useless was a stroke of genius which surprised even the imperturbable Ethereals.You are truly a bringer of life to previously barren worlds. The Ethereals are basking in your success. There are many who would stand in your way, but you seem to have dealt with other races efficiently enough up until this point. Congratulations.The Ethereals send messages of pleasure and relaxation to you and your team. The reclaiming of life on this planet has been a difficult and dangerous task. Yet you have carried it off with the judicious use of science and genius. Continue and your place in galactic history is assured.A marvellous victory for your team of hard-working technologists. This is a triumph of the equipment you have been using. Even the technologically supreme Draxilons of the Ninth Sunworld send their respectful greetings.Yet again you have led your team admirably. The planet you helped shape is functioning perfect, with an eco-system many would be proud of. It goes without saying that the Ethereals are happy with this state of affairs.Even the excessively tall Malthars of Kadnoozic would prostrate themselves before you after witnessing that supreme performance. Another planet which can boast the perfect biosphere is left behind you as you move on to the next challenge.Mmm. Perhaps the Ethereals have underestimated the power of your flesh and blood thought processes? You seem to be acting efficiently and repopulating these planets with ease. Never fear. Tougher levels await.Again your team of mortals has carried out the orders of both your government and the Ethereals Overlords with skill and foresight. We must offer congratulations in recognition of your rare abilities.Even the Darklords of Sprell seem interested in your planetary exploits. Although they are responsible for some of the most destruction acts seen in this giga-millennium, they recognise talent for creating, not destroying. Well done.Your skills have triumphed over the biospheres of all the known planets. You are awarded medals of the sixth dimension. Wear them inside your mind with pride.Another successful world. You have made a global impact yet again, and the Ethereals would certainly be smiling if they had three-dimensional faces like your race. You are earning your place in eternity.You have surmounted all the trifling problems of this world with consummate ease. Be aware that, because your race has no history of successful bio-engineering, you are a pioneer to be feted forever.The Ethereals wish to present you with a gift. A self-replicating Corax from the dustworld Sahellia will be caged, sedated and given to you once you complete your task. They are rare creatures, mortal. And highly poisonous, I need not remind you.So your abilities once more save you from humiliation. That planet was overcome by your team's dogged tenacity and burgeoning skills. You are applauded from Vex, through the magnetic fluxes and out to Berillia.Your hour of triumph draws ever closer. Your success is creating ripples through the known empires. Rest assured your atoms will be enshrined sub-atomically in quark vats when you die. This is an accolade few can resist.A mighty cheer will rise up when details of your success reach the geneticists of the Ion Kingdom. The Ethereals are rightly proud of you, and tell you that the end of your quest draws near.This has been a dire failure. All you were asked to do is build a small base on this world. Your team couldn't even do that. Return to Base command for immediate resource reallocation. Apparently they're looking for teams to clean out their poisonous proto-lithium reactor pods...Your genetic construction program has been a disaster. Perhaps you should return to your bio-creation manuals. And this time, read them rather than just look at the pictures. The Ethereals are keeping silent about this performance. But their very silence speaks volumes of galactic-sized disappointment.Your government is seriously considering withholding funds from the Interplanetary Lifeforms Organisation as a result of your incompetent bungling. Surely the production of GOOP can't be beyond your abilities? After all, you've been training for years for this.The Ethereals are displeased with your attempts to bring stability to the biosphere of this world. They didn't ask much, but you failed them. And they are not a race which tolerates such failures. You must re-assess your strategies.You have brought shame upon your entire race. Your inability to restore natural harmony to the ecology of this planet is something you will have to live for the rest of your mortal existence. The Ethereals, too, have long memories. And they hate to be disappointed in such a manner.Another race has proved better than you at the vital business of biosphere balancing. You have much to learn. The Ethereals see everything from their imperial saucers, and will expect a better performance immediately. They do not allow the idea of failure. Make sure you do not risk their displeasure again.Your failure has driven the Ethereals to their nearest approximate of human despair. That performance was certainly shabby. It is time you reassessed your priorities and did it correctly.You are in danger of becoming the laughing stock of this quadrant of the galaxy. This is by no means the toughest planet to balance. Perhaps you have trouble dealing with other races? Don't look to the Ethereals for help. You're on your own.Pathetic. You will be fed feet first into a neutron stripper, and your atoms will be redistributed across the eleven worlds of Sargoz unless you prove yourself worthy. The Ethereals, remember, do not look upon failure as a virtue.Such a display of ineptitude is typical of the lesser races. Perhaps the Ethereals expect too much of you? The Colcaris of Andvor would make better planetary engineers. And they have no heads or senses of any kind.Is this a joke? Are you mocking the Ethereals? The last being to try that was vaporized. Then the Ethereals travelled back in time and vaporized every ancestor before him. Right back to amoebic life. So do not fail them again.You fool. Do you not see how this planet should be approached? Your meddling has proved irritating to the Ethereals, who demand little less than perfection. You are mortal: do well to remember that. You can feel pain, too.Until recently the most pathetic race in the galaxy was the Pelids of Frunge. Not only are they scared of their own shadows, they are so afraid of each other they reproduce asexually. You, however now rank several levels below them in terms of woe.Ethereal rumblings can be heard across the galaxy, from Sol Primo to the outpost at Calixa. And they're unhappy because of your uniformly poor effort on that last planet. It is to be hoped that you re-examine your plans for producing balanced, non-violent eco-systems. Right away.There is consternation amongst the Ethereals. They cannot decide whether to take the genetic project away from you, seeing as you obviously can't carry it out. It's likely that you will get one more chance, though. Make sure you do not fail.That was a disaster. Such failures cannot be hidden from the all-seeing eyes of the Ethereals, who have indicated their disgust by melding several higher dimensions, creating havoc for any that live on those planes.Nothing can be said. You have shown yourself to be mortal, weak and incapable. Try again, and this time attempt to use both hemispheres of your pathetic carbon-based cellular brain. It must be tricky, being limited by synapses and neurons, though.You have done well so far, which makes your failure now all the more baffling. Perhaps some negative reinforcement would work - there is a punishment cell on Sub-Targus, the Ice World which you might end up in. You'd have to share it with an insatiable Pluvian Drill Monster, though...Even the Ethereals grant that this planet is a difficult prospect on which to establish a biosphere. However, they do not expect you to fail it so dismally. Such a poor effort will not be repeated. They will be watching you closer than ever.Unless you are successful very soon, your team will be reduced to their constituent atoms and a Mark Nine Bio-bot will be sent to this planet to establish an eco-sphere which will be virtually perfect. The Ethereals would rather your band of pioneers succeeded, though.The Ethereals were beginning to believe that your puny flesh-and-blood race would complete the genetic programme across all the worlds. But mistakes such as this only serve to cast doubt into their shadowy minds. If they had brows, these would be furrowed by worry.The moonworld Polvana has a species of carnivore called Krenches. The eat anything with a bloodstream. Unless you reconsider your approach to your last planet, you may well find yourself in their gaming pits.You have learnt much during the eco-programme. But you are still not seeing all the possibilities. The Ethereals urge you to broaden your mind.The Ethereals wonder if you'd like to taste the poison sac of the famous Teron acidfish. It acts so quickly that by the time you would cry out, you would have no throat left. Your dreadful performance indicates that you are hungry for such a meal.What? You dare to offer the Ethereals such a diet of incompetence and bungling? Have you no shame? Continue in this vein and you will be as extinct as the fabled grennits of Prexana, who suddenly took to eating their young, and died out within a generation.At this late stage you should not be making elementary errors. But your race has always been prone to the most enormous disasters. The Ethereals themselves have been pleased with your progress so far, but even they wonder whether your talent horizon has been exceeded.You obviously do not realise the importance of engineering the biomass of this planet. It is imperative that you try to balance the ecosphere and eliminate the chances of meddling by other races. Immediately.Every mistake you made affects the future of an entire world. The Ethereals are expressing concern at your apparently cavalier attitude to their programme of repopulating and balancing all the planets in this quadrant.You deserve a cranial plexon implant for that catalogue of errors, mortal. Then, when it burns out your conscious mind, leaving you as a tool in the hands of the evil Krellans of Grecyx, you will know what it is like to feel eternal agonies.You have come so far, and yet you made mistakes even at this late stage. The Ethereals are mightily displeased, and demand that you apply yourself once more to the task in hand. Then and only then shall the glory be yours.Planet %sBiomassBuildingsCreaturesStored GOOPPointsCreate %sLand teamCREATURES BORNENEMY CREATURES KILLEDENEMY BUILDINGS DESTROYEDNEW SPECIES DISCOVEREDSPECIALISTS LOSTPOINTS SCOREDThe Ethereals have marked a series of zones that require special attention.
