Van Ropen, got a counter offer: My plan, but I switched to your research numbers. Any problems you can see?
[x] Plan: Alanek's Amazing attempt at Alliteration, Alteration A.
-[x]Rich Startup
You expand your facilities to include entertainment, food, amenities, and anything else your employees could need. The company takes care of all of life's everyday bothers so that employees can focus on work.
However, employees are not allowed to take electronic storage devices out of the research areas without letting security scan them, and are regularly reminded to not talk about their work off of the corporate campus. Text and data communications from the research area are all kept on record and may be reviewed at any time. (7,500,000 credits to pay for new buildings, 7,500,000 credits/quarter in upkeep and additional personnel, reduced risk of infiltration.)
-[x] Apply to the Systems Alliance for permission to patent the Arc Reactor in Citadel Space.
-[x] Write in: The security Vi stress testing was fun. Practice more Mock-combat with your security teams, Including your family and possibly Brian, if they want to go. Practice in a few environments, but make it clear that the ones away from the lab are not mandatory, and ensure the lab always has it's normal complement.
Research:
-[x] Micro-missiles (150): After your failed negotiations during the raid, you resolved to never fail those who have been taken hostage again. This is the best solution you've been able to come up with so far- a large battery of 10mm micro missiles, slaved to a VI and capable of maneuvering and attacking a large number of targets simultaneously and with a large degree of precision. Given the size of the projectiles, you might even be able to fit them into a pistol frame, though it would have limited magazine capacity. (30d10+25)
-[x] Repulsors (150): You know you're close, and now that you finally have proper facilities, you're sure you can finally make the breakthrough you need to build repulsors. You're sure they'll be remarkably effective as a dual purpose propulsion/weapon system if you can just figure out how to make them work. (prerequisite to Mk 2 Armor) (Purchased with bonus points!)
-[x] Improved Intelligence algorithms (110/400): Improving the most basic building blocks of your VIs allows you to make all of them better in every way. (Doubles Security and Research VI bonuses, upgrades Fire Control VI to Tactical VI, which allows suit independent operation.) (50d10+50)
-[x] Basic Neural Interface (200): A human being is their mind, and the mind is the brain. In many ways the body is just a vehicle used for moving the brain around, and really it is frustrating that one has to rely on a vehicle rather than influencing the world under one's own power. And with this lateset invention from Paragon Industries, they no longer have to. (Construct an interface that will let someone control electronics using only their mind. Outsource that actual installation.) (40d10+15)
-[x] Basic Genemodding (200): It is a terrible tragedy that Humanity is still troubled by genetic diseases like Vrolik's Syndrome. The genes of infants are the building bricks of adults, and if you know what they all do, you can improve them. Time to pick up your LEGOs again. (This will let you build special facilities where people can get better babies. High upfront investment, decent pay out down the road). (10d10-5) (Overflow)
Building:
-[x] Start construction on a factory III
