Literally the same as Catching Up the Military, but putting a whole three dice into Columbia.

Frankly this edit could work on ANY plan posted so far, and I will gladly do so if anyone cares to request it. Catching Up was just the last I saw when I got frustrated over nobody wanting to invest in orbital habs.

Because Starbound wants orbital habs before the election, and if we don't get a move on on that we are screwing them over.

Free 7/7
2HI+ 5 mil
3 Idle dice

860/850 (+10 reserve)


Right so this plan is focused on both pushing out some useful mil projects while also pumping the industrial base that supports further growth as well as working towards a good amount of income (60-70 this turn and 40+ next turn). One thing I noticed is that the African warlord is beginning to poke around which makes the hubs in africa an easy choice because I would rather fight around the hubs than closer to our industrial areas (also new hubs have additional defenses which is why they had an increase in progress required). This sets us up to deploy 3 hubs this turn and follow up with 2-3 marvs next turn for income and mitigation (because tiberium has not stopped being a threat).


I am going for enterprise because we can get phase 4 done in 2 turns and that gives a small amount of cap goods and should see a shimmer shield and additional defenses added to the station (this happened for Philly since we developed the defenses after putting the earlier stages in place). Also as an orbital plan goal, which is a category that has almost no flexibility without using free dice and well we really need free dice for Mil and HI investments- Mil to stop nod and HI to support Mil and our other projects.


For HI the free dice let me knock out stage 2 of Nuuk and 2 stages of fusion over Q4 and Q1 which also means we can rollout one of the Advanced Electronic Video Assistant, likely HI, to push our progress per turn forward.
For mil- the three dev projects provide a boost to fighting NOD, one vs NOD ground and the other two to help in the skies and potential orbital interception depending on what that NOD airship is going to be used as. In addition pushing out an Apollo factory for more fighters because we need less Firehawks and more Apollos. Also pushing the Long Ranger Sense deployment forward and work on OSRCT.
Bureau- 2 reviews of the departments that are going to be doing the Karachi push which also are 1 and 3 on longest since last review.
In general trying to set us up for additional rollouts and Cap Good and Energy usage while also working on plan goals so that bad dice rolls do not screw us over/force use of free dice.

[X] Plan Chimeraguard

I like this plan best.
Arguments later.

Hmmm, so we've had Erewhon for a single update already and I'm already in the business of throwing everything I can at them to make life easier.

As a side note, I would kind of like to discuss Tiberium Inhibitor deployment. I don't know if it's a typo, but three of the zones for that don't look like they cost Energy… and frankly we've had the dang things forever and constantly put off using them.

Do you have an idea on what to spend those two dice? I personaly think that this research is ok, even before elections, because it isnt as charged as building the liquid riberium power plants, but if you have a good alternative i would like to hear it.

[X] Plan Catching-Up The Military

There are a few plans right now which call for establishing a Capital Goods reserve, how would that work when we're also spending Capital Goods? Would they be taken out of the reserve or not go in at all?

I just think that doing anything with a political cost right before the election isn't a great idea. As to what to spend it on... no idea.

Tiberium Processing Refits maybe?

[X] Plan Chimeraguard
[X] Plan Catching-Up The Military

Either looks fine to me, pretty similar and the minor deviations one way or another aren't a big deal IMO. The important economic and military stuff is all close enough to the same for me, I like both plans.

[X] Industry and War

I'm happy for any plan that starts lunar mining of some kind, does hover development, does wingman development, and doesn't do anything with a political cost right before the election.

The way cap goods reserves work got explained at the top of the turn post. It's not like food where it permanently subtracts X points of production in exchange for maintaining Y points of stockpiles. It's a toggled option that puts whatever our surplus production is at the end of the turn into the stockpiles, every turn for as long as it's active. So if we end the turn with +2 cap goods production, then the stockpile grows by +2. The big difference is that it doesn't permanently consume production, so if we turn on stockpiling it doesn't turn our +2 surplus into a 0, it adds the +2 to the stockpiles and at the start of next turn we still have +2 production. If we end another turn with +2 cap goods production, then the stockpiles get that added again for a total of 4 points stockpiled, again with +2 production not affected etc.

The downside is that the extra machinery being produced each turn is getting stored in a bunker instead of put to productive use, but that's where the balancing act between rebuilding our ability to restart an industrial base when shit blows up vs. getting more economic growth now comes in.

Heavy Industrial Reserves
Currently, surplus heavy industrial goods are going into the markets, other people's supplies, and other wants and needs. By ordering production in excess of immediate needs to go into reserves, you can begin building up a supply of capital goods in case enemy action forces you into the negatives. This is a toggled action.

Click to expand...

Click to shrink...

Basically, what the above means is that instead of the current excess +5 Capital Goods we make each turn going into various miscellaneous uses, we're going to start putting them into a Capital Goods Reserve stockpile. Each turn the Reserve will grow by +5 Capital Goods... or rather +3 after we finish the Integrated Cargo System. So in Q1 we'll have +3 CG in Reserve, then +6 in Q2, then +9 in Q3 etc. And anytime we grow (or shrink) our extra CG production, that'll be how much is added to the Reserve each turn.

This is how it always worked since the option was given to us, but we haven't taken it previously since we didn't understand the mechanics, prompting the clarification this update. Edit: Ninja'd.

I'll probably have to try coming up with my own plan, because while pretty much every plan covers all the high points, perennials, kadzoo, Nuuk, hover, integrated logistics, yadda yadda, only Plan Higher Skies does Advanced Lasers and some kind of plasma, my personal sticking points, and it also pushes on Liquid T power cells. I want them, but not during election season.

So need to come up with something myself, looks like.

Before voting opens, I would like to bring up the likely need to sweep Services. Perhaps free dice could be leveraged to sweep it, as well as Tiberium and Infrastructure, both of which are vital to the Karachi Sprint next turn.
