Attempting to Fulfill the Plan: GDI Edition

Reader mode
Some brief analysis of ++ Capital Goods (and --- Energy) projects. (Again, these percentages assume that an Omake bonus might be used.) Remember I've got no idea what's discussed over on the Discord, tho!

--[] Chemical Precursor Plants 36/200 2 dice 30R 21%, 3 dice 45R 65%, 4 dice 60R 91%

Chemical Precursor Plants uses our Light Chemical and Industry dice. It's an obvious place to put 45 R into, and can be done simultaneously with a project in Heavy Industry. (TBH I'm still not 100% sure if I shouldn't have tried to fit this in to my plan or not; hopefully we'll be free enough for it next turn.) It'll likely unlock/help other LC Ind projects, though I'd expect those to be Consumer Goods rather than Capital Goods. Maybe something in/for Agriculture too?

--[] New Moscow Robotics Works 0/200 2 dice 40R 4%, 3 dice 60R 39%, 4 dice 80R 76%, 5 dice 100R 94%

The second easiest project. Likely to be done in one turn, or could be started with an extra die put in here alongside finishing a more difficult project. In terms of its effects, "will speed along many projects" certainly sounds promising and perhaps reason enough to do this one soon. Though it might also reduce our Labor costs, which isn't going to be important for a long time.

--[] Kure Machine Works 0/350 4 dice 60R 3%, 5 dice 75R 22%, 6 dice 90R 52%, 7 dice 105R 78%, 8 dice 120R 92%

Expensive, in both dice and Resources. 3 free dice and 90 R isn't easy to do, and it gets worse if we need to rush it. This factory makes rather advanced machined parts, perhaps similar to Christchurch Tool Plant?

--[] Saarland Heavy Industrial Plant 0/400 (2 HI, 2 Tib) 40R 2%, (3 HI, 3 Tib) 60R 58%, (4 HI, 4 Tib) 80R 96%

Not as expensive as you'd expect, thanks to the Tiberium dice's heavy bonus being added in. The real cost here is that this'll cost 3 or 4 Tiberium dice in addition to our Heavy Industry dice. As a plant that makes super-large parts, including the parts for "Tiberium Refining Crucibles" this may hopefully help/unlock additional industrial projects. (Though I'll note it sounds like it needs Rail links to operate fully, compared to how New Moscow and Kure sound like they need computing chips.)

--[] North Boston Chip Fabrication (Phase 3) ???/600 7 dice 105R 1%, 8 dice 120R 5%, 9 dice 135R 19%, 10 dice 150R 42%, 11 dice 165R 65%, 12 dice 180R 82%, 13 dice 195R 92%

(Here I did the numbers assuming we started at 0/600.) It's possible that the third stage gives +++ Capital Goods. Even if so, this is roughly twice as expensive as Kure Machine Works. We do know this third stage will be enough to fix our computer chip shortage. But I think we'd rather do other projects that'll finish sooner first.

More than that. Stage 3 is when a lot of capacity starts coming online. Think on the order of 8-12 points overall.

Could be better. Especially in infrastructure or Tiberium
But at least done a lot of other things. Especially the satellites might give us a better reaction time to Kane's attack.

So North Boston Phase 2 finished which is good as that means zone suits are being deployed instead of stored. Redoubts also finished with those two amazing rolls
 
@Ithillid Just a couple of quick questions.

"[ ] Yellow Zone Reconstruction (Phase 3) ... The Hawk party would be rather annoyed at this being done before blue zone rail links. "

When you're talking about the 'blue zone rail links' the Hawks want to have done before this, do you mean Rail Link Reconstruction (Phase 1) or Urban Metros (Phase 3) ?

'[ ] Yellow Zone Fortress Towns (Phase 1)
.... (Supports Yellow Zone Intensification) '

So we need to complete this option before we can gain any more levels of Yellow Zone Intensification?

'[ ] Saarland Heavy Industrial Plant:
.... with easy rail access to active tiberium harvesting operations '

Does completing this give us access to more Tiberium harvesting options like Red Zone harvesting gives us access to Tiberium Glacier harvesting?
 
Blue Zone Residential Construction (Phase 2) 208/200
Rail Link Reconstruction (Phase 1) 184/300 Remaining Progress: 116
Run of River Campaigns 98/200 Remaining Progress: 102
North Boston Chip Fabrication (Phase 2) 454/300
Blue Zone Aquaponics Bays 208/200
Blue Zone Perimeter Redoubts (Phase 2) 245/200
Blue Zone Perimeter Outposts (Phase 2) 150/150
Red Zone Tiberium Harvesting (Phase 3) 132/150 Remaining Progress: 18
Experimental Tiberium Treatment Labs 42/100 Remaining Progress: 58
Expand Orbital Communications Network (Phase 1) 179/150
Yellow Zone Security Services 208/200
Railgun Refits 169/150

Overall pretty successful turn
