From the videogame known as Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire, the expansion pack to Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, this is the secret project video for The Nethack Terminus.

Secret project details:
Cost: 400
Prerequisite Technology: Self-Aware Machines
Effect: +1 morale to all Probe Teams built. -25% cost of probe team actions. All Probe teams with a Fusion Reactor or higher have equivalent of Algorithmic Enhancement.

"By creating a planetary network, mankind on Planet now has the ability to share information at light-speed. But by creating a single such network, each faction has brought themselves closer to discovery as well. At the speed of light, we will catch your information, tag it like an animal in the wild, and release it unharmed-if such should serve our purposes."
-- Datatech Sinder Roze, "The Alpha Codex"

  • well.. prefer university with HSA and NT. These 2 almost [ALMOST I SAID] deny their beggining vulnerability to probe teams, and disallowing other's PTs to become too strong ;] AEs are actually too dangerous to allow this SP to get into other's hands if you already have HSA ;]

  • Uh, too much abbreviations :P! Could you clarify for those of us who haven't played for a while. SP I understood as Secret Project...

  • I spoke too soon :D, HSA is Hunter-Seeker Algorithm and NT obviously Nethack Terminus. Then PT must be Probe Team but AE is still unclear.

  • @matsku84 Algorithmic enhancement. It gives Probe teams a way to circumvent the Hunter seeker alortithm... but it's not easy unless you probe teams have Algorithmic enhancement as all possible morale modifiers. Helps to have a deep purse and high probe rating. :)

  • If future computers can complete NetHack with 100% success rate, than I guess it's worth pouring valuable minerals into them!

    Haha, kidding. But I think this project is a ploy to limit the power of angels, because you'll get a stack overflow of probe values if you get either this or covert ops. Is there a patch that fixes this bug?

  • @woodwyrm *enhancement!

  • @matsku84 AE = Algorithmic Encryption?

  • The red dot represents anon.

  • We are already here. =(

  • @matsku84 Algorithmic Enhancement!

  • The secret projects seem all possible in a short future. Nasty shit. Let's unite the factions and fight the central enemy. What do ye say? Destroy the elites.

  • rose was lame

  • I can see some government doing this any day now..
