__TOC__
== Description ==
Alex grew up in Namibia where his family recieved several acres of farmland during the land redistribution program targeted at the native Namibian population. Like his father, he studied desert farming aborad and spearheaded new techniques for the growing of crops on space stations. The hostile Martian environment is the perfect proving ground for his innovative approach to agriculture and he joined the Mars Colonization Project with his family in tow to start a new life on the Red Planet, leaving the farm to his siblings.
== Specialization ==
*Nitrates Boost - Increases your Nitrates production by 1 for every 3 new Nitrates you start producing.
== Skills ==
*Explore - Explore a Location for a Power cost. The further away the location is from your nearest city, the higher the Power cost.
*Farm - Farm +5 Food.
*Breach Aquifer - Convert a not-owned Water deposit into Ocean.
== Gameplay ==
Alexes Farm ability can give you an early leg up for the development of population, since most population buildings have food as their main cost component. Additionally the Breach Aquifer ability allows for the fast development of the first step of the Oceans stages of the terraforming program. Especially usefull in conjunction with an early explorative push to the poles, since, by default, many Aquifers are placed in conjunction to the poles of the planet. His special will boost your nitrate production in the late game, since it is quite easy to trigger it mutliple times, especially since nitrate is one of the easier produced mining resources.
