Alien Imprisonment Idea

Post by maceonline »

I think it would be a cool idea for a whole research tree on ‘Alien Imprisonment’. A high security wing of our beloved bases could be dedicated to imprisoning aliens for the purpose of extracting artefacts from them. The more Aliens you catch the more artefacts can be extracted. The hunting process could be vie a placed trap system or some type of new ‘netting’ vehicle.

Once imprisoned, the aliens would need to be fed and hydrated, which would need to be manufactured and delivered. In return, artefacts are produced.
The hydration is simple enough. Assuming our little friends drink water, it can be pumped and packaged quite simply. Food on the other hand is more difficult to obtain. It would be a good idea to use the research packs with another ingredient (possibly wood or leaves from farmed trees) to produce the food.
The reasoning for using research packs is, when all the research is complete on our game, we become flooded with thousands of unused and not needed research packs. Somehow feeding these to our captured aliens would keep the pack creation side of our factories necessary.

Failing to feed a prisoner should hold grave consciences, any deaths should produce high amounts of pollution, anger the alien community and attract large waves from far afield. Making sure the basic materials are always on hand to produce research packs for food, extends the life of our once redundant research manufacturing process and endgame. Obviously by doing this, the amount of aliens imprisoned is reliant on how much resource we can afford.

Research possibility bullet points:
Capture/transport Vans
Cages
Caged train carriages
Stun Guns
Alien traps
Bate (sound, pollution, food….)
Food creation
Hydration creation
Cells, Pits, Prison walls, Gates, Electric fences (requiring power), Yards
Refrigeration (for stored food) – requires high amounts of power.
Refrigerated train carriages

Great idea/concept, but the name needs to be more catchy .....

- Biter Farming
- Indianna Jonesing (Hunting artifacts)
- Alien Agriculture
