Colonising the solar frontier - 2129 (The Final Frontier replay)

Introduction

The fourth turn of my solo replay of The Final Frontier.

Narrative

APA manages to have the first level 3 colony – Murrua on Mars.  They now have the technology to get out to Jupiter.  The NU is still working on gathering colonists for Banbury, the Martian colony.

The ONEP is expanding its Jovian system presence with a colony n Europa (Arakurta) and another mine on its way to the Jupiter system.    TAC has founded the Izzes colony on Mars.

All powers now have colonies, with APA having the largest colony outside of Earth orbit.
