<\/a><\/p>\nNo, seriously, don\u2019t touch it. Do you know what it\u2019s for? Do you know how to use it? Is it poisonous? How about what happened to the last guy who touched it? Yeah, that\u2019s what I thought. Please just put your hands in your pockets.<\/p>\n
Keep your friends close and your engineer closer<\/h3>\n

Your junk is going to break because it\u2019s… well… junk. The big mega corporation that is funding your little operation only cares about the bottom line (note: evil corporations don\u2019t need a separate warning because corporations are evil and cheep, just like the real world). So, as sure as death and taxes, you better be able to fix it when it breaks. I know, the engineer is chatty, overweight and a general PITA, but keep an eye on him. After all, you can\u2019t toss the bad guys out the airlock when the latch is jammed.<\/p>\n

<\/a> In the future we\u2019re big on strip-mining other planets. I have yet to see a Sci-Fi movie where a freighter full of soldiers and Mega Corp employees travel light years to a foreign solar system then farm the hell out of some unsuspecting planet. Know why? Because bad stuff doesn\u2019t happen to farmers. Miners, on the other hand, seem to have the karmic deck stacked against them. Archeologists are only slightly safer. The conservative among you should just avoid breaking rocks at all.<\/p>\n
