The first season starts after the Yamato module, and the name of the first season is **Nemesis**. The name Nemesis is related to the Greek word νέμειν *némein*, meaning "to give what is due". The time has come to give what is due. Nemesis is the inescapable justice and defines the beginning of a new era. The power of justice is in your hands. You are Nemesis. There are two ways to earn reward points during a season. You can earn reward points by upgrading and defending your Yamatos or by attacking Yamatos of your opponents. There are the hunters, the hunted, and all the nuances in between. What will you choose? The journey begins... In a distant galaxy in 2080, a couple of settlers and raiders awakes from a long, artificial cold sleep. The Steem price dropped, and the universe is on the verge of collapse. Now we need you, you have to save us. Embark on a breathtaking journey. Follow the path of justice to save Steem and the whole universe from demise once again. It is time to battle for ~~honor, pride, and justice~~, Steem, Items, and Stardust. *** Reward points are going to be converted into Steem, Items, and Stardust at the end of each season. *** For your preparations you should know, that...

Yamato blueprints

At the start of the Yamato module, all owners of each legendary planet will receive 10 Yamato blueprints. The owners of the blueprints will need a few days and a ton of resources to enhance the ship skills, leveling the shipyard, and deciding on which planet they should activate them. After that, we will announce the launch of the first season. There are currently 10 legendary planets (including the earth). So a total of 100 blueprints will, therefore, be distributed. **What to do with a Yamato blueprint?** - Trade it just like any other blueprint - Activate it on a planet to produce and sell the built basic Yamatos - Activate it on a planet to participate in the season challenge **How to get a Yamato blueprint?** - ~~You participate on the pre-sale auctions~~ - Buy it from another player (we don't sell Yamato blueprints) - Explore the galaxy and find the first legendary planet ever - We will give away 10 blueprints (of the earth) in contests **You don't have a Yamato blueprint?** Your challenge is to track down and destroy Yamatos. Hunt Yamatos to gain reward points for killing and downgrading Yamatos during a season. The **leach rate of the season** is given in percent and defines the center of gravity of the season and the ratio of attackers, and defenders. Each season also has an individually defined leach rate. With the leach rate, we will balance between hunters and hunted. You will be able to buy the basic Yamato from someone who produces them like other ships. Once you have a Yamato you will be able to upgrade the basic Yamato to higher tiers to participate in the season challenge.

Stardust

To ensure our token model has a "sink" in it, we have to burn tokens. This idea was initially suggested by Vitalik Buterin and has been widely adopted. Basically, it involves designing token models with "buy-and-burn" mechanisms. The decrease in supply raises the value of all remaining tokens by the percentage of total supply destroyed. To upgrading Yamato, you need Stardust. With this measure, we introduce the first sink for Stardust. We have already completed a second sink, which will be releasing with the Yamato module. We will now constantly add more meaningful sinks and thus increase the value of Stardust before we making the token tradable on exchanges. *** _{Yamato starts on} **November 15, 2019 20:00:00 UTC** *** Enhance your ship skills, build a huge fleet and prepare for the first season and epic battles. Prepare for **Nemesis** - inescapable justice. Stay tuned. **Next**Colony
