📋 About This Mod
Normally in First Contact, the Paradiso board spokesman Oliver offers you three options to deal with the presence of the ECS Constant - kill them, enslave them, or shove them somewhere else. This mod lets you propose a fourth option - kill the board. They're no longer marked as essential, and they can't object to the new colony if they're dead. Though choosing this means you'll need to fight your way back out through resort security!
