The Bounty of a Brain, by Big Giant Circles

Gravity :D

And if anybody else wonders, the attack and ship destruction sequence came from Freespace 2.
 
I am adding a family member then, since we are allowed and I think it was said we needed miners. This is my late grandpa. Born and raised on a farm in rural Sweden (but I'm ignoring that for his skills). Only had 6 years of schooling. Sweden had/has mandatory military service for men. So he spent at least one year doing that. Possibly longer, I never asked. Built his own summer vacation house from scratch. Worked all his life in a Volvo factory and collected (pretty) rocks as a hobby. That's like mining, right? :cool:

Do you want to start married, or strangers?

Also, you don't get bonus points for nudist because it gives a massive morale buff when you're nude, and only a small debuff for being clothed.
