I'm really not sure that'll help much. Figuring out what to do with 57 dice isn't much harder than figuring out what to do with 52 dice, if you ask me.
Any particular reason for a push on Advanced Alloys instead of putting the third die on Crystal Beam Deployment? Just for the +5 R?
Ummmm. Right now we need Bergen more than we need the nanotube foundries, and it's going to be hard to finish both Bergen and the new foundries by Q4. I'd probably let the foundries wait until the next Plan, just on the grounds of "don't start what you can't finish" and "keep it simple." I know you're trying to save up, but I think this is a false economy.
Recommend you slide at least one die from granaries to hydroponics. If you're doing that much storing of Food with no extra +Food sources beyond the fertilizer plants, it's gonna be a hungry quarter next quarter. Someone'll start introducing the refugees to fungus bars.
Some of them may re-defect back to Nod.
For reasons discussed above, I think that if we're gonna do tendrils, we should push hard to do them fast, because we get a lot more Resources out of the action on net (literally twice as many) if it clears this turn instead of next turn.
But it costs us the same amount to do either way, you see...
So if we're gonna make the sacrifice play in hopes that people will appreciate us for it, we should at least get it over with quickly so we have time to build up a useful R buffer of funds that can be funneled into central banking or held in reserve for 2062Q1 when we'll have fallow dice to worry about.
Enterprise is about fifteen dice from completion. At this rate of construction it's gonna be down to the wire whether we finish it on time in Q4 and there will be no space left over to start work on the station bay, Leopard II yard, Conestoga design, orbital cleanup, or anything else we'd like to do.
As always, I recommend consolidating dice on OSRCT. It is a MUCH bigger project and thus we really really want to get out in front of it if we want to avoid having to frantically overspend like four dice on it in Q4.
Why would the Bogatyr help with MRASP? Do we have signs that Nod has deployed full-scale mobile basing on their flying battleships?
I respect what you're trying to do here, but oppose plans that spend on Ranching Domes at this time, when we are so far from completing so many actual Plan targets.
I think the sheer expense of running a lot of those spinoff bureaus (many of which are more costly than the minimum cost to activate dice in the relevant fields) plus existing bureaus (like the Reconstruction Commission) may undermine us there.
Plus, we're going to be under a strong informal obligation to start out strong in Orbital, since Starbound is pushing to let us keep the moon mining money on the understanding that we'll use moon mining money for space projects instead of terrestrial projects. Since we don't have a lot of 10 R/die Orbital projects, we still won't have enough moon mining income to really turn a profit on that slice of our income.
That's funny accounting, not that you're doing it on purpose to be clear.
See, my point is about comparing the impact on our reserves of different completion dates within 2061. Since the project costs the same amount to complete no matter how fast we do it, the cost is the same either which way, so faster completion is straightforwardly better for building up a big reserve.
The 25-30% slice of the Tendrils Phase 2 income we get to keep post-reallocation is not considered in my calculations precisely because it's the same amount any which way. For purposes of "do we want to do this fast (in one quarter) or slow (in three)" it doesn't mean anything on net.
The difference between getting 25-30 RpT out of the action in 2062 and getting 100 RpT out of the action in 2062 does, by contrast, make a huge difference between a 2061 completion date and a 2062 completion date. In my opinion, it militates in favor of the 2062 completion date.
...
Also, from the sound of it, claws are going to have more impact on vein mining next year than tendrils will. My plan is to do claws in 2061, finish Tendrils Phase 2 in 2062Q1, and do a big pile of vein mines in 2062Q1 too. I think this is a good strategy for avoiding ZOCOM overstrain and minimizing fallow dice; I think we'll get better results this way than we would with a 2061 rollout of the tendrils.

[X] Plan Steak and Tendrils
Heavy stockpiling with real food, enough food production to offset even the massive stockpiling expansion, and starting ranching domes in Agriculture. At the minimum this combined with the Department of Consumer Industrial Development will start to defuse the Milk and Honey folks, while still not being seen as slacking on the real food stockpiles and starting to fill in the light industrial base of all those new ghost cities we're building. In Tib I want to start putting reliable effort into Red abatement again, which means starting the inhibitor now that we have a mutation roll in the near future. Green Zone intensification to continue building out GZ infrastructure, chipping away at tendrils.
Comes at the cost of any Free dice in Military, but we can afford to wind down the military spending just a tad with the war over, as long as we prioritize targets. Might need a handful of Free dice in Q3 and Q4 depending on our luck but for now I think limiting Mil to the base 8 dice is acceptable. Surging investment into civilian sectors now that the war's over is important to win the peace.

Okay, here's the current draft of my plan. I've talked about it before, but key features:
1) This plan actually doesn't quite spend our whole budget. I'm hoping to save a little up for 2062Q1 after reapportionment. Overall goal is to at least TRY to have a reasonable shot at each and every Plan target completing in 2061Q3, though realistically we'd have to get pretty lucky for that to happen; some will probably have to be worked on in Q4, though hopefully we can avoid any real nail-biter photo finishes.
2) I've changed up the Tiberium sector. Goal is now a gradual slow-roll of Tendrils Phase 2 (timed to finish in 2062Q1 to give us an RpT infusion) and Harvesting Claws (timed so we can finish it in 2061Q4 and have it in time for an anticipated vein mining surge in 2062Q1). The reason for this is because I am deliberately avoiding necessitating a big push into the Red Zones to restore our income after reallocation. That means we need good income sources handy, and Tendrils Phase 2 is very good for that, and vein mining will be too. The RZ-7 North American inhibitor is still there, as is research into the improved Hewlett-Gardener process for increasing STUs on future refits.
3) Easy finishing of a fusion phase in Heavy Industry, combined with extensive investment into Crystal Beam Lasers and hopeful completion of Anadyr. Two dice on Bergen, completion of the fertilizer plants to increase food availability in support of ELFS (Extra Large Food Storage), and two dice to continue progress on the interrupted Civilian Drone Factories.
4) Agriculture is dominated by the predictable completion of the freeze-drying plants, ELFS, and the granary expansions. Combined, these put us quite close to hitting the Stored Food target; with or without Emergency Caloric Reprocessing Plants we can hit it, though E-CRP is important if we want to have wiggle room for luxury food production in late 2061.
5) Orbital and Services are fairly self-explanatory. Military priorities are a heavy investment in OSRCT to give us hope of finishing the Plan commitment in 2061Q3, while also making progress on all other remaining military goals.
6) Remaining plan goals that will have to be started or pushed heavily in 2061Q3 even if we're lucky: OSRCT Phase 4, Tiberium Processing Plants Phase 2 or Chicago Phase 4 plus refinery refits, ASAT Phase 4. All these can be handled with a relatively modest number of dice.
1110/1130 Resources
7/7 Free dice
ENERGY PLANNING (pessimistic)
+5 (baseline) -4 (Anadyr) +16 (fusion) -1 (fertilizer) -1 (freeze drying) -1 (mechanization) -3 (Mastodons) -2 (URLS) -5 (New York)
->
+4 Energy (but with all power-hungry military Plan requirements finished, and only the frigate yard remaining)
FOOD PLANNING (pessimistic)
+26 (baseline) +4 (fertilizer) +6 (freeze drying) -12 (ELFS) -6 (Phase 3+4 granaries) -5 (refugees are hungry)
->
+13 Food (with mechanization on the way for +12 more next turn, and/or easy +6 from Aquaponics, in Q3)
(optimistically, could easily be +25 food if Phase 2 mechanization completes, which is more likely than not)
STORED FOOD PLANNING (target: 28 Stored Food)
+12 (baseline) +8 (ELFS) +2 (Phase 3 granaries)
->
22 Stored Food (or 24 if Phase 4 completes)
(NOTE: This version of the plan is defunct. I have since swapped an OSRCT die for a Bogatyr die, out of the apparent desire of a sizeable number of otherwise pro-'October' voters for this.)

I would like to emphasize, I believe a 2062Q1 rollout of Tendrils Phase 2 is the best way for us to avoid problems with fallow dice in 2062. This is a core premise of my plan. If you want a fast Tendrils rollout aimed at maximizing our pre-reapportionment reserves and getting the goodwill from stacking another 100 RpT into the overall budget faster, find a plan that puts 7-8 dice on Tendrils. If you want the worst of both worlds, find a plan that puts about four dice on Tendrils with the full intent of finishing in Q3 or Q4 when we won't get as many reserves out of the project.
This is not to say that the people doing otherwise are bad or lesser-than, but I think some people are making some bad choices in this particular moment, seeing that we can rush out another 100 RpT of income before Plan ends, and deciding that we should, but also deciding that there is no great urgency in doing so.

When I have more time I'll vote for more plans, but for now the only thing this plan as that I don't like are Pinhole Portals, which I am definitely alone on not liking, and lacks Interdepartmental Favors, which I hope can be changed.

This definitely is least partially derived from Claw Harvesters technology, which have been described as "high frequency shovels." So this is clearly the path to HIGH FREQUENCY BLADES!

I haven't made a plan entirely of my own in a while, but this turn I really really wanted Steaks, and I really really wanted Tendrils, so I made a plan that does both!
My suggestions for making it more good at what it does (and in the process, less like my own plan)...
1a) Move a Newark die to URLS or Mastodon production to free up some more R. I would never normally do this, but we're trying to optimize for tendrils and steaks at the expense of non-tendril, non-steak things. It is moderately unlikely that a URLS or Mastodon die will be wasted, after all.
OR
1b) Flip the fortress die in Infrastructure to an apartment die to free up 10 R. The fortresses are very likely not that urgent.
OR
1c) Flip a single Crystal Beam die into alloys research or building electric car factories to free up 10 R. This one's iffier, but you'll see why I suggest it in a moment.
2) Take one die off Enterprise. Six dice on Enterprise per turn isn't my ideal but it's not bad- it still pushes us in the direction of having wiggle room for confidence in Q4 even if our rolls are relatively weak.
3) With the Free die taken off Orbital, and the +5 or +10 R from Military/Infrastructure/Heavy Industry, put +1 die on tendrils.
This gives us a dramatically better, like twice as high, chance of actually finishing the project in Q2. As in, "40% chance we could fund the whole proposed central banking reserve system off this change alone."
Please consider this change.

If after a reasonable amount of time has passed, this plan has enough supporters who didn't also approval-vote my plan...
I will sigh, give up Interdepartmental Favors and the dream of sweet sweet +Political Support boosts, and change my plan to become your plan, to avoid vote fragmentation.
Well, that or just concede if yours is straightforwardly more popular than mine.

It's not a per-turn cost. It only costs -20 capital goods once.
As much as I love dice efficiency, you make a really good point. What about taking the free die off of Industrial Lasers, flipping the Fortress die to Apartments, and then putting the now available free die on Tendrils? Edit: Or is the 2% on Lasers worth taking a die off Enterprise?

That's not, like, Long Term Systematic Planning Organization?
I am intrigued.
EDIT:Oh, wait, it's the Munitions subdepartment isn't it.
I was thinking of our RZ harvesting and Glacier mines as small scale, not the Containment Lines. I don't know why we haven't gotten power from the collectors being implemented there. I can only guess that they have not been implemented there yet.
Rather offtopic, but I was looking at the map and did some thinking on where we should focus future abatement efforts. Note that all of these are definite long-term projects, that in some cases may well take a decade or more to yield results. Still, if anyone plans to build MARV hubs or Tib Inhibitors in the future, maybe keep the following in mind.
Note:
I mostly ignored any projects in enemy territory, on the assumption that doing major construction projects there simply won't work. Exceptions are YZ1 West/Mandvi, which assumes that we'll be well into Karachi at that point and thus hold the ground, and YZ13 North/Algiers, which while technically enemy territory is well inside the RZ by now, and thus should be mostly uncontested.
Also, reclamator hubs open up Inhibitors and (iirc) glacier mines in the same locations.
Offensive operations project GDI power into Nod territory, Defensive projects secure our own assets (sealanes especially, I didn't bother listing anything that merely secures the local area), and Logistics projects open up new transport routes.
NA Transcontinental (Logistics)
[ ] Tiberium Inhibitor Deployment
-[ ] Red Zone 7 (Progress 0/120: 30 resources per die) (+2 Red Zone Abatement) (2 Political Support)
[ ] Reclamator Hubs
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Yellow Zone 9 (Progress 0/335) (Guaymas) (3 Points Yellow Zone Mitigation, 15 RpT)
Suez Canal (Logistics/Defensive)
The Suez' value as a global transport route is significantly diminshed by having to take wide detours around India and SE Asia. It's still significant, providing a shortcut between the Arab peninsula, and Europe and the NA East Coast, running entirely through waters that are very easy to secure against hostile ships - though not against attacks from the western bank of the Red Sea, or the coasts of the Western Med. Might also serve as Maskirovka for Karachi.
[ ] Reclamator Hubs
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Red Zone 1 South (Progress 0/335) (Tripoli) (3 Points Red Zone Mitigation, 25 RpT) (+1 Energy)
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Red Zone 3 South (Progress 0/335) (Beirut) (3 Points Red Zone Mitigation, 25 RpT) (+1 Energy)
Western Med (Offensive/Defensive)
Cuts off the connection between the European and the West African YZs. Also secures the sealanes if the Suez is reopened
[ ] Reclamator Hubs
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Yellow Zone 13 North (Progress 0/335) (Algiers) (3 Points Yellow Zone Mitigation, 15 RpT)
East Africa (Defensive)

-[ ] Reclamator Hub Red Zone 2 South (Progress 0/335) (Dar Es Salaam) (3 Points Red Zone Mitigation, 25 RpT) (+1 Energy)
Karachi Invasion (Offensive/Logistics)
Operations that support the invasion of Pakistan, Karachi Planned City, and the logistics route into BZ 18.
[ ] Reclamator Hubs
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Yellow Zone 1 West (Progress 0/335) (Mandvi) (3 Points Yellow Zone Mitigation, 15 RpT)
Panama Canal (Logistics)
[ ] Tiberium Inhibitor Deployment
-[ ] Yellow Zone 11 (Progress 0/130: 30 resources per die) (+2 Yellow Zone Abatement)

-[ ] Reclamator Hub Red Zone 2 North (Progress 0/335) (Congo River) (3 Points Red Zone Mitigation, 25 RpT) (+1 Energy)
Australia (Offensive)
[ ] Rail Network Construction Campaigns (Phase 5)
A further wave of construction will finalize securing the routes to the Australian Red Zone, and ensure improved supply to GDI's various fronts. At this point however, further construction of rail networks is likely to see increasingly small improvements in the overall supply network, while new city centers are the largest growing strain.

I mostly ignored any projects in enemy territory, on the assumption that doing major construction projects there simply won't work. Exceptions are YZ1 West/Mandvi, which assumes that we'll be well into Karachi at that point and thus hold the ground, and YZ13 North/Algiers, which while technically enemy territory is well inside the RZ by now, and thus should be mostly uncontested.
Also, reclamator hubs open up Inhibitors and (iirc) glacier mines in the same locations.
Offensive operations project GDI power into Nod territory, Defensive projects secure our own assets (sealanes especially, I didn't bother listing anything that merely secures the local area), and Logistics projects open up new transport routes.
NA Transcontinental (Logistics)
[ ] Tiberium Inhibitor Deployment
-[ ] Red Zone 7 (Progress 0/120: 30 resources per die) (+2 Red Zone Abatement) (2 Political Support)
[ ] Reclamator Hubs
-[ ] Reclamator Hub Yellow Zone 9 (Progress 0/335) (Guaymas) (3 Points Yellow Zone Mitigation, 15 RpT)
Suez Canal (Logistics/Defensive)
The Suez' value as a global transport route is significantly diminshed by having to take wide detours around India and SE Asia. It's still significant, providing a shortcut between the Arab peninsula, and Europe and the NA East Coast, running entirely through waters that are very easy to secure against hostile ships - though not against attacks from the western bank of the Red Sea, or the coasts of the Western Med. Might also serve as Maskirovka for Karachi.

Australia (Offensive)
[ ] Rail Network Construction Campaigns (Phase 5)
A further wave of construction will finalize securing the routes to the Australian Red Zone, and ensure improved supply to GDI's various fronts. At this point however, further construction of rail networks is likely to see increasingly small improvements in the overall supply network, while new city centers are the largest growing strain.
