Listen up buddy, I don't know what your motivations are to this job, I don't know whether or not you did all those years of medical training just for access to the explorer suits, and I certainly don't know about any assassination contracts on miners you might have. What I do know, is that you're a good guy. It's the most important thing about your job. You have to be on death's door every other second so you can save the [[Shaft Miner|Shaft Miners]] if they eventually fuck up. A wise man once told me that it's dangerous to go alone, which is exactly why you are here. | Listen up buddy, I don't know what your motivations are to do this job, I don't know whether or not you did all those years of medical training just for access to the explorer suits, and I certainly don't know about any assassination contracts on miners you might have.

Welcome to Lavaland, Miner! You may have been expecting to be posted to a peaceful asteroid, but Nanotrasen has recently started up a mining operation on a new world rich in both minerals and aggressive wildlife! Now for some reason the introduction of said aggressive wildlife has caused miner fatality rates to skyrocket and that's expensive! So to save some money we've hired you, and now there won't be any more dead miners. Right? Right! Now there is just a few things they probably didn't tell you in the flyer, so pay attention and listen well if you don't wanna end up as a bad investment! | Welcome to Lavaland, Miner!

So the miner accidentally hit himself with a pickaxe in the helmet. Five brute damage? Patch him up. The last thing you'd want is for your buddy to go into crit while fighting a watcher, 3 damage short of killing it with all the weapons on their corpse. Be sure to also have you and your miners maintain a healthy diet of food! The last thing you want is a miner that's over or under eaten! in this world slow miner is a dead miner so watch that weight! | So the miner accidentally hit himself with a pickaxe in the helmet.

Why don't legions attack each other? Probably hard instinct. Either way around, you should do the same. Don't get tempted to split up or do the mining work yourself, because digging a tunnel is the best way to get caught with your pants down. | Why don't legions attack each other?

While Nanotrasen doesn't exactly approve of this, they don't discourage it either. A lot of effort and resources go into cloning, and a lot of paperwork afterwards. From time to time, it may very well be best to pull out. | While Nanotrasen doesn't exactly approve of this, they don't discourage it either.
