[X] Oasis #7
Choosing the Oasis for the purpose of creating a Boom town. Given that there is only one permanent settlement, and the low living standards, there will probably be a large immigration flow into the colony, and the Oasis will help with sustaining our population. Only issue I foresee is that there is probably already a large group of native population due to the water source, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem as long as we treat them fairly.

As to the other options, I'm opposed to the crossroads, since there will probably be pre-existing agreements between the tribes to prevent strife and territorial dispute, which we would probably be trampling over. No real objection to the ridge, but it seems a bit too overly cautious given the low population and technology regression. Unless there is some vault hidden somewhere with an army or WMDs, we're unlikely to see any real threat to our colony.

Guess will go with the middle ground, and more people presumably to cover the whole of the Oasis... I can only assume since it's Oasis #7, there are six others before it at least... :V
 
...wait, didn't the Gunhallowers (...that's quite the name) choice meant this people are the ones they trade stuff with...? Aka their 'closest trading partner'? How's they pull it off I wonder...?
Every three years, a trader goes through the region on a trip ending at Gunhallow, where they sell off the last trade goods and supplies they brought and fill their holds with germanium, other rate earths, and precious stones like jade and saphire. Along the way, they also carry messages from the visited planets alongside specific cargo and lists for things that the planets want to buy from their neighbors and the Periphery/Inner Sphere. Gunhallow and Sigar IV have especially close trade relations for the route due to Sigar IV selling Cobalt, Zink, and Aluminium (things that are rare on Gunhallow) in exchange for precious stones like saphires and emeralds for cultural and religious reasons.

Okay the ridge looks too cautious now. Sure, let's go Oasis. Don't know about the colonists tho, so let's just follow the people.

If we're doing to oasis I think we need fewer. Remember, we have 5 million total. Once they're settled we're done
