The Council of Endeavor3 Needs You!!

Currently, we are but 8 humble Councilors seeking to establish a colony on the distant planet of Endeavor3 in the Groombridge Star System. We are seeking new council members to help us charter legislation, govern our populace, and better our world.

Though we have only been on Endeavor3 for 3 phases, we have already dealt with sabotage from our parent company, integrated with ancient alien lifeforms, and avoided destruction at the hands of a rogue OS. Come join the fun!

This is a Sci-Fi based colony-building simulation. Each phase we charter legislation to deal with crisis, go on missions, and expand our colony. To learn more and get involved, visit the link below. You don't need to read the entire thread. We can get you up to speed easily!
