I dunno, I was thinking for the maximum test we could pick the airless planet and start from scratch. As much as I'd like to build a fortress world in Arcturus itself, it's just a gas giant, unfortunately. Unless we want to build floating habitats, Bespin style?
Sirta for the Salarians, unless we just want to sell it directly to their government? I kind of want to give it to all freely to prevent stratification.
I'm for a clinical trial of the drugs, something over a few quarters to see how it develops.
We could license ships easily, unless we want to do it in house without worrying about no compete?

Think we already know the effect of the drugs. Registering it as a drug with whatever regulatory body the SA has and being very up-front about the risk associated with it would be best imo. It has a lot of potential as a therapeutic, but just selling it over the counter would be madness.
I haven't really followed up on our economics, but I figure we could afford going Sirta for the Salarians. Licensing or not of the ships would depend on if we have enough shipyards to do the retrofits efficiently. If we do then yeah do it in-house, but if not then updating the Alliance navy asap takes priority.

Hopefully we get to see the alliance making moves soon as a doubt the batarians can keep this kind of aggression up without driving their slave driven economy into the ground.

so we got new stuff to work on
working version of the Biotic Caster, various laser gun design, better battery
also need to design a 5 meter mech
any one got any idea, or should we just steal the design off of a Titan from Titanfall

As people have brought up it would be a lot more beneficial for us to give the treatments away for cheap for political gain. We already have lots of money and that number is going to go up. on top of that having better relations with other govs would help. Especially when we are still working on the treaty in regards to the modular ships.
Proposed Mecha model: Icarus
Basic Idea: Biotic charge.
Primary focus: Mobility, Biotic Mechinery
Secondary focus: Shielding, Firepower
Non-focus: Armor.
A mobility focused Mecha, the Icarus is designed for a high mobility platform with a devastating loadout of short-medium ranged weapons, and powerful but low(ish) duration shields to permit it to quickly close with fortified enemy units/positions.
walks/runs to a place near where two sides are fighting, launches a super-sonic dash from 1-2 km away, producing a large shockwave on arrival, then lays into the stunned enemy forces with its short-range weapons. When shields start to get low, dash back out of the fight and back behind cover, recharge shields, repeat.

can we even make that, we don't have a working Biotic Caster yet, just a prototype right now

One thing about the Salarian treatment, is Sirta the right company to partner with in order to spread the treatment among Salarians? Yeah, Sirta is apparently very respected galaxy-wide, but they are also a human company. Think the Post-Scarcity Foundation was introduced some updates back, who have similar aims as the Sirta Foundation, but on a larger scale and with less focus on biotech. Alternatively finding a Salarian company that is similar could work.
We could also most likely combine the options. Sell the treatment through the Salarian goverment while also partnering with a Salarian biomedical firm to distribute it widely. The government focuses on its agents, military, and probably its politicians netting us some cash while the biomedical firm focuses on those who need the treatment because of medical issues. Basically having the rich subsidize the treatment for the poor.
It seems like something Mordin should have an idea about anyway.

Basic tech idea, FTL traps/inhibitors, probably needs something like FTL sensors as well but the idea is that a station would send out a Mass Effect Field/pulse opposite to what a ship uses to achieve FTL forcing back into STL until the emitter is destroyed.
Stellar grade system/structure, belt guard, an asteroid belt like ring of heavily defended stations containing FTL traps/inhibitors and ships.

I thought of the Idea even before I saw the biotic machinery bit. Original Idea was to build a light-weight mech with a heavy loadout of repulsesors and shields. Use ME fields to lighten it even further, overcharge the shields, and make a Mach 3-4 dash at an enemy position. Which would produce quite a shockwave due to simply pushing the air in front of it. Short range firepower to mop up what was near the point of impact the survived, then dash back to allied lines to recharge the shields and resupply ammo.
The biotic machinery just makes the whole Idea better. First models would, of course, not have that feature yet, but areas for their eventual instillation could be built into the frame. so when we do eventually develop them, they could be added in to let it do its job better.

Again, we don't really need money and the main reason to just give it away cheap so that entire races can have easy access to it is for political good will which is especially important since as shown with the treaty it would help us out quite a lot. We don't really need to complicate things here.

Biotic caster prototype is currently the size of a small sedan. Too big and inefficient to be used in battle, and too fragile and too heavy.
write ins for how to deliver salarian gene treatments allowed
so far you guys are getting lucky in regards to event rolls for your current period of peace

I kinda want the second planet because of the lack of atmosphere if were testing terraforming tech, Howerrver the atmosphere would help with our plant transforming tech and stuff. So im fine with all but the gas giant.

that is an option.
Also there are pros and cons to each planet option besides just terraforming.

I don't really care about the money either. My main point is that I don't know if Sirta is the right company to spread it through since it is a human company. The whole "spread it through the government too" is mostly cause that would be an easy thing to do presumably since we already know who they are and Mordin probably knows who to get in touch with among them.
As long as all the gene treatments do is cute disease then hand it out for free. No need to boost their stats.
Cracking that code is very important. Considering this is the third time they struck deep in SA territory. We just have to roll bad and SA will take severe damage.

We should just ripoff
Is there a form or system in place for design proposals? A way to track how much stuff we can put on a design?
As far as the mech goes I see a couple ways to play it:
1. Emphasize it's role as a sort of super heavy infantry, give it scaled up infantry type weapons, and rig the other systems for a good mix of survivability and mobility. Maybe hit it up with some of that modular fun for unlimited load outs. The idea here is to be basically infantry but bigger. Try to keep the adaptability of troopers, with the armor of a tank, and the strength of an angry krogan.
2. Task build these bad boys, stuff them to the gills with a very specific set of abilities on top of a solid 'keep pilot alive' package. In this case I'm thinking we build them as biotic god-suits using the casters, the super barriers, meta materials, and just go whole hog on giving the pilots god like biotic power. With maybe some repulser and arc reactor tech to provide a skeleton.
