A New Colony 

by Lavos

A New Colony is a mission given to players very early. Players given this mission must explore planet Soupaline so the ESCorp can create a colony there. This mission is completely optional and is not required to progress through the game, however, it is a simple task with great reward for such an early stage.

Mission Image/Text

According to our scientists an inhabitable planet is located not far from your actual position. They call it 'Soupaline'.

Visit all territories on this planet to create a new colony on Soupaline. Because the atmosphere is highly saturated with nitrogen, purple conglomerates appear. They can re-synthesize a few seconds after being drilled.

Notes

The Mission Clear text has mislead many players into thinking that there is always a reward for exploring any planet. This is not true! You will only get rewards for clearing an entire planet if a mission specifically asked you to do so. So for example, exploring all of Lycans is not only tedious work, but will earn you no special prize. (It will just help fill your profile page.)
