Nemma World is a colony event chain that has a very small chance to trigger 2 years after any colony has been founded. It can only happen once per game.

Unsteady Ground

Our colony on [colony name] has encountered an odd situation: we have apparently settled on the back of a gargantuan amphibian reptile, whose bony shell is formed of various exotic minerals. Most of what we thought were local islands have turned out to be these creatures; our colonists have begun to refer to them as Nemmas.

They seem harmless enough, and as long as we don't dig too deep into their shell, they should barely notice us.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Not capital world
  • Planet is Continental or Ocean
Mean time to happen:

Time 24 months


Carry on.

    • Society Research from Jobs +15%
They seem... familiar.

A Daring Discovery

As our colony at [colony name] has been flourishing, the adolescents of this new world have sought to create entertainment for themselves - as youths are wont to do. Some groups have made a game of sneaking up as close as they dare to their local Nemma's head.

Unfortunately, this daring activity has led to tragedy: after startling the beast, several young [main species plural] fell off the neck of the massive creature, resulting in injuries and one fatality.

Distraught colonists are now asking for something to be done about these "brutish behemoths."


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Unsteady Ground
Mean time to happen:

Time 24 months


Something must be done.
  • Issue Special Project: Study the Nemma
Allow the youths their fun.
  • Moving Islands modifier removed
  • On the Backs of Nemma modifier added, giving the following effects:

Nemma Taskforce

Having tasked our best biologists and engineers with devising potential solutions for the Nemma dilemma on [colony name], several proposals are now ready to be presented.

We've considered everything from the most rational to the most extreme of ideas. The urgency of this situation demands we must skip straight to live field tests.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • A Daring Discovery
Is triggered only by:

Finishing the Study the Nemma special project


Breed more Nemmas and safeguard them for more living space.
  • Issue Special Project: Start a Nemma Breeding Program
Enslave the Nemmas so that they become deferential and compliant.
  • Issue Special Project: Start Enslaving the Nemmas
Enough! Sedate the Nemmas, and start drilling their shells.
  • Issue Special Project: Start the Nemma Mining Operation

Expand the Archipelago

After initial trials with the adult specimen, our zoologists have set up a Nemma breeding system on [colony name] in the hopes of introducing more giant Nemmas to our oceans. The breeders warn that this cannot continue indefinitely, and that the planet can only support three, perhaps four more Nemmas. The estimated time until we have our next Nemma should be about ten years.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Nemma Taskforce
Is triggered only by:

Finishing the Start a Nemma Breeding Program special project


We'd best commence breeding, then!

Exploiting the Shells

Our engineers and biochemists have outdone themselves. Newly developed drugs and extremely precise drills will allow us to harvest the minerals by drilling into the hard crystalline shell of these Nemmas, as well as allowing us to collect biomatter from beneath without jeopardizing our infrastructure. If only all our colonies could yield such bounties.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Nemma Taskforce
Is triggered only by:

Finishing the Start the Nemma Mining Operation special project


Excellent.
  • Adds the Nemma Mining Operation planetary feature

Enforced Obedience

Our xeno-bioengineering scientists have curtailed the Nemma menace! Thanks to our superb efforts, the creatures are now subservient to us.

The Nemmas have been granted renewed purpose as superlative beasts of burden. Their colossal bulk allows them to carry immense quantities of materiel, guided down optimal routes by way of their cybernetic implants. Our colonization effort has accelerated accordingly.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Nemma Taskforce
Is triggered only by:

Finishing the Start Enslaving the Nemmas special project


Excellent work, now our true work can begin.
  • Enslaved Nemmas modifier added, giving the following effects:

The Miracle of Life

Our breeding program on [colony name] bears fruit as we add another Nemma to our ranks! This juvenile has quickly acclimated to our presence, and we have found it a stable habitat. The Nemma should now be ready to bear our industry.


 
Trigger conditions:
  • Expand the Archipelago
Mean time to happen:

Time 10 years


Magnificent! Start on another one!
  • Adds the Juvenile Nemma planetary feature

Nemma Huggers

Today riots broke out on [colony name] as parts of the population have risen in protest against our treatment of the Nemmas. The protestors formed a picket line around the head of the Nemma on which the colony's capital lies. The protestors demanded that we immediately set all the Nemmas free, working to conserve their species rather than enslave them.

The movement has quickly spread to sites around the other Nemmas - however, counter-protests have formed in favor of our existing programs, escalating public tension and risking outbursts of violence.


 
Trigger conditions: Mean time to happen:

Time 36 months


Commence a breeding program instead.
  • Enslaved Nemmas modifier removed

    • Housing −10%
    • Society Research from Jobs +15%
Arrest the instigators and put them on waste disposal duty.
  • Enforced Nemma Slavery modifier added, giving the following effects: Authoritarian Ethics Attraction +70%
