We probably want the AI to be cared for immediately, since left alone to stew who knows what might happen. Other than that...all in on Variable to hit the goal on time, since most of these are multi-turn actions.

Your task is this: I require a working prototype that can be retrofitted to some of the existing EUDF hardware within four months. It can be of any vehicle that is workable or simpler for you, but I need one. It must reliably function, and it must have some form of armaments or utility that provides an advantage over its current default state.

Will choosing weapon loadout another research project?

I started reading this quest, finally caved in and posted. I wonder how will it end considering we're in Gendo's position minus kid (for now). The staff is already going insane though, as per Emongelion's course.

[] Field Testing - CRX-02C - Good to their word, Wilde and Henry have prepared a test prototype for Captain Sasaki's pilots. This comes at a good time, as they are practically going stir-crazy. She fully plans on letting the pilots 'test the absolute limit of the Engineers' creations.' Durability, strength, reliability, agility - everything an operator could possibly want from a configured vehicle. The Engineers, for their part, are more than happy to provide.

We need to do this ASAP.

[] Piloting Stress Tests - You now have a piloting candidate, 1LT Callaghan. Only problem: he wasn't a pilot to begin with. In line with Sam's requests for candidates of all types, a humble radar technical officer turned out to have enough psychic potential to tap into the eventual man-machine interfaces in the works by the Engineers. He can abstract piloting if given the MMI, but he's hopeless as it stands.

Also this for the demonstration.

[] Expansion - Motor Pool - Sasaki is very happy with your current capabilities. But she is not one to rest content on her laurels. As unorthodox as the Duo's designs are, the Coyote prototype plans she sees is enough to convince her of the merits of Variable Configuration.
That, and she really wants to see a configuring armored personnel carrier. Is that too much to ask?

Even she has fallen to the madness! Still, it sounds funny. How long until someone decides to try an armored ship transport?

[] A Helping Hand - Robo-Jocks

Must have.

[] A Helping Hand - Spies, You Say?

Speaking of: What happened with the "spy other super-robot groups" thing?

[] Dreaming of Robotic Sheep - The fact you discovered a sentient AI descended from a failed virus attempt from some shadowy figure possibly attempting world domination…

Also a must.

All answers Sam looks to answer over the course of a few months. The answers will likely make the ability of minor psychic abilities much more widespread among your staff.

Sounds amusing and potentially hilarious. What could go wrong?

Must protecc young cybernetic organisms.
Them protecting us comes later.

Also, proposing to name it "Dorothy".

First of all, welcome to the quest! Hope you enjoy. :)

I may or may not fold the weapon loadout project into the same test depending on how well you all roll on it. If not, not to worry; there'll be another project on it with options for you!

As for spying: well, the votes barely ever touched them. :p Spying on the enemy threats started last turn and will conclude this turn, but you haven't sent anyone out to spy on the competition.

I'll leave voting up until tonight, and probably get the post up sometime tomorrow morning. Potential world-building interlude may take place as well.
 
Just reminding everyone that Robo Jocks gives a bonus to Field Testing. Also it's a giant transforming robot cage match.

Changing my vote for the last time I swear.

I don't like it but every turn an AI action feels like a grueling thing to do given everything else that might occur, and I don't think I could thread the needle and craft a new plan that'd satisfy everyone. Besides, a super-CRX-focused turn probably will be truly glorious to behold! Assuming the dice do not turn on us.
