Welcome to the first eXode weekly #oneup report! Development of the game is still going strong and we received a new update a few days ago regarding planetary wildlife! This post will mostly cover the ongoing Away Teams Challenge and the associated data of my NFT planet (along with some news and other exo-bits).
Planetary Dangers
The planets you will find in the new galaxy will be diverse. Many have some form of hostile wildlife, weather events, or otherwise dangerous features. Like all other actions during the Away Teams Challenge, you can claim intel once every 23 hours. Luckily my planet, Casrarene, only has three dangers but that yellow one concerns me.
The Quiawaako's intelligence and the Ebebopi's organized raids will definitely hinder our exploration and collection efforts if my teams are not well equipped. The inedible food can at least be countered by cooking but the dangers otherwise have no usual protection. I am also relieved that the dangers are not present "everywhere". That would really be unfortunate.
Dangers received their fair share of hype when the update was released in late November. On the last day of January, the teams we had cued for wildlife investigation finally were allowed to set out. This new code will lead to a later ability to investigate dangerous planetary wildlife as well!
Debriefing Room
Currently, only investigative missions towards wildlife are programmed. I've been picking the same characters for the roles on my missions, even though proficiencies have not been activated yet. I consistently picked an Observer (Vera Bama) as the support role for the mission because I want to extract as much data of the 111-749 unique attributes of the target as possible. Meanwhile, Eliza the veteran researcher stays behind to, well... research! Here is the intel gathered on the first creature.
Another update was pushed revealing additional information about studied wildlife which my team revealed, however it is not yet displayed. According to the developer, there are some "fun" attributes yet to discover! These attributes may include biofragment information. From biofragments and biochemicals, your colony will be able to craft new (marketable) inventions! I can't wait for that.
Such is development progress so far. Don't worry if you missed out on joining this challenge; there will be another chance at an undetermined point in the near future. The next Lab Report will bring more news.
New Acquisitions
Since booster packs are sold out on the shop (and I'm not paying market prices) my new cards are only from my Tom Settler and Syndicate contracts. A single new NFT card was added to the drop tables of the aforementioned contracts plus the Rekatron Weapon Drops, which I do not own.
A colony full of beauty capsules would be highly efficient (and happy) since they are autonomous. That would free up a lot of energy usage for other installations like Foodie-Moodies and Water-Hydrogen Converters because, don't forget, the capsules do not provide food and drink! Also, I believe the more items you have from the same "collection", you receive a QL bonus.
I really believe that I was this close to getting the new Syndicate card last Syndicate Sunday. The first card I pulled made the sound that epic cards make but, alas, it was not the geisha. It was yet another Narcotics Genefactory. Better luck tomorrow.
What is eXode?
eXode is a real-time strategy space colonization game here on the Hive Blockchain. If you still have not purchased your starter pack, use this referral code (de7ed45) and you'll also receive 2 free Alpha Booster Packs with 5 NFT cards each along with a free Epic Alpha Character!
In the future, these lab reports will contain much more substance (and numbers!) including season objective rewards, legacy rewards (when your game...ends), and of course 🍉 [MELN] activities.
🍉 [MELN] is the alliance I co-founded, the Market Expansion Leaders Navy. Our leader, @birdbeaksd, is also the host of eXode's only weekly giveaway. Check that out for a chance to win free NFTs (eXode account required).

What is The 1UP Cartel?
The 1UP-Cartel is a mix between a gaming guild like YGG (that invests into gaming assets and creates scholarships for gamers, sharing the gaming revenue), a dividend token (similar to BRO, LBI, INDEX and UTOPIS, paying out regular dividends to token holders from part of the revenue stream) as well as one of the most extensive curation service initiative on the Hive-Engine ecosystem thus far.
Thanks for making another cool eXode post! I am looking forward to tinkering with the new features.
I sent you a (Mil. Frigate) ship NFT as a tip. I hope that it serves you well.
You can view the NFT transaction here:

Cheers and Hive on!
Thank you! I appreciate it! And thanks for the ship too! I'm sure it will come in handy!
You are quite welcome!
that was very generous of you man, excellent!
Lots of kind souls here, makes me tear up.
Man, I'm really looking forward to gaining access to more features! I missed the initial challenges after deciding to chip in to get a planet. Just gotta be patient while the kinks are being ironed out. ;)
!1UP 100
I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we are bursting with excitement! Step 2 is right around the corner! At least you got your planet! Just hang in there!
Thank you for the 🍉 [MELN] shoutout, proto.

Hm. Yes and no. You will no longer find them at their original shop prices but if you're willing to do a few hundred bucks on one at the market...

I am still trying to get out of the station alive... I hope one day I will be able to make it.
Keep practicing! I once escaped with only one casualty but that wasn't good enough for me, so I still started all over. If someone is about to die, quickly send them to the cockpit or interior where it's safe. They could still die on the way there though. Good luck, captain!
Ah i need one of those beauty capsules!
I think there still might be one on the market!
Ah I'll wait until one drops... I've already had two Geishas and one Fireworks, just need this now!
