ps. how did you “choose” your new project? normal rules, you draw two cards and pick one.
Check the canonical rules by Mattias (linked in the first post) - you can either start two at random (losing one if you have only one research node), or start one chosen one.
Final command
One of the two ships at Valakis enters warp.
hehe
One ship at homeworld goes in and out of warp to explore a new system.
The lost ship in the Federation area goes to warp.

by the way… how many of you have played Humble Beginnings before? or who’s first time is it?
My first time with Humble Beginnings.
Edit: Timezone is currently EDT (GMT-4)
Also, what time zone is everyone? (I’m PST/Vegas)
You will find it extremely challenging! I highly recommend everyone to have either started their first game with it, or try it at least once!
(It will really make you appreciate regular mode)

Preferred direction? (I know you can pivot later, but to start with.)
(Also I’m in BST, currently GMT+0100, as I believe is RossM. Note that if you set your home timezone in Preferences/Profile you can get times from the system localised for that zone.)

You gain one Research; no active projects so it goes to the pool.

@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Marx/Cardassians play.
- C1 start research project “Labor Camps”.
- C2-C3 explore NE
Lane length d3+1: 3
System Argolis Cluster (PRRO-5)
Exploration:
Encounter at Farpoint: Take 1 Culture OR Immediately Colonise this System at no cost.
@Marx to decide.
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
- C4-C5 explore SE
Lane length d3+1: 2
System Goralis (H5 PRR-5)
Ship lost on a 5+: d6: 1
Exploration card is Tribble Trouble: exhaust 3 Command tokens, if able. Which eats your last Command.
I’ll wait for confirmation on the Culture vs Colonise at Argolis Cluster, then end the round.
