7th Opal, 251 Population 18, residential unit is under construction. Everybody is enjoying lavish meals, but complaining of the lack of chairs.



..So the trader was carrying a barrel, decorated with bands of silver. And spikes of nickel. And spikes of gold. And he wanted me to buy it too.

22nd Timber, 251 The caravan has arrived, and progress is going nicely. We have some gem encrusted shell crafts to sell them for booze and food!



14th Sandstone Seven more migrants today, several of which with military skills to make a militia.

9th Sandstone, 251 Outdoor work is coming along nicely, we have the bunker-entrance complete.



Oh and both the miners are already legendary.

Migrants! We have: Two farmers, a gemworker, and a metal worker!

And as can be seen, I have my furniture and food industries up and ready to roll, a good start methinks.
