Ok, so on the research, using AnyDice with its "table" and "at least" settings, it's possible to quickly find the chance of rolling the requires progression points to finish a research. Since all our teams are Skill 6 currently, I can look on quarter ahead by using 6d6, two quarters ahead using 12d6, three quarters by using 18d6. So!
The problem with not using plan voting, is that we don't have any voting format. So we can't do individual line voting when we'll all be using whatever voting format we come up with.
-Assess Harmony Influence on Isolinear Tech, Remove potential Isolinear research penalty. [21/40]
This has a 72% chance of gaining 19 or more points in one roll, finishing in one quarter. It has an effective 100% chance of 19 or higher in two quarters.
Same deal: 72% in one quarter, 100% in two quarters.
-Backup core purge routine, develop a system to allow compromised Ambassadors to reassert control via the backup cores. [25pt]
20.6% chance in one quarter, but 99.9% chance in two quarters. Possibly a good assignment for Amash Hagan (Skill 4) to finish up next Q?
-Increase Decryption, +1 Firewall Level. [60pt]
Near-zero 0.11% chance of only two quarters. 68.4% chance in three quarters and 99.8% chance in four quarters.
-Increase Resistance to Harmony Conversion, +1 Infiltration to attackers. [50pt]
10.4% chance in two quarters, yet 96.9% chance in three quarters.
-Rudimentary Harmony Agent Brain Scans, +1 to SophInt for defenders. [20/50]
2% chance in one quarter, but suddenly 98.3% in two quarters. Maybe another good choice for a lower skill team to finish?
-Neurological-Nadion effect simulations, +1 to Subdue for attackers. [40pt]
66.2% in two quarters, 100% in three quarters.
-Alternate approach brainstorming, generate new options [35pt]
Near-zero 0.02% of only one quarter. 89.6% in two quarters.
This has a 72% chance of gaining 19 or more points in one roll, finishing in one quarter. It has an effective 100% chance of 19 or higher in two quarters.
-Rudimentary Starfleet computer core rootkit scan, on completion will identify all compromised ships on Type-III duotronics. [21/40]Same deal: 72% in one quarter, 100% in two quarters.

This is 21/40.
These were all worth doing last turn, no reason not to continue, and we'll want the Amby core purge by Q3.

So SWB did all the work, I just added the 'expected rewards' columns and colour-coded the 'moderate to good chance of success' resulting from his assumptions and calculations.
Risk-Reward display, I suppose.
Waterfall struggles to find high-probability applications, though their best chance is also high-Disruption payoff.
Edit: Training the new Licori Yellowbrick and/or Bolian Blueberry cells- doesn't get us a new 'column' Mission task group, rather a new allied 'team' asset component like the Padani tiger team, that can be attached to Task Groups operating locally, boosting their stats.
I assume the skills the Licori/Bolian cell would develop is generated (randomly from?) whichever Asset is in the Task Group that trains them?

[][Audit] Integrity Office: Staff operating the Point 20 supercomputer centre at Ke'luur, the central hub of the HBZ, have started reporting data anomalies. Perhaps it is nothing, but it could represent a problem. (It is a problem, +1 to Harmony Access for any failed or marginal event within the HBZ or Okatha)
I think we can use our second audit team to deal with area's where we know there are problems and i think the 20 supercomputer centre at Ke'luur is a good place to begin to reduce the amount of damage the harmony can do.

So, for active missions, I'm thinking something like...
[][WAVE] Surveil Luraperou ship traffic to and from the depot
before:
[][WATERFALL] Raid Luraperou Forward Supply Depot.
-Or the Rangers kick their heels back again, but... would chaining missions like this shift the odds much, GMs?
If we can't double-up, I think Wave should hack Nal Brott.
[][SUNGLASS] Investigate Edel-Noshad Waystation
- an independent station in the Opindi System in the HBZ run by semi-scrupulous Honiani. Target ident- this might be more than one? Unknown. But seems like a lead, in our space.
[][FASTENER] Hack Known Singer Hub on Narravonn
- Hack it before we destroy it next turn? Maybe success Hacking would boost the subsequent odds?
[][GUARDRAIL] Develop Agent Cell Yellowbrick into an operational mission team
- Licori computer-paranoia meets Padani everything-paranoia
[][BLUEBERRY] Bolian cell supports local mission
-except I'd probably rather Wave surveil the Luraperou depot, than Hack Nal Brott, their other worthwhile mission. So no Bolian missions here...
unless maybe Wave hacked Nal Brot instead, if we can't double up on targets.
[][SEASON]
So many choices. High-reward/high-probability options include
Harmony Health Clinic on Puriurairaru
Mission: Bureaucratic Harassment (Req.: SophInt 3, Investigation 3). Disruption 3. Gain two new missions against the clinic.
This suite would lead to up to 11 Disruption, develop the Yellowbrick Asset in Licori space, and hopefully generate several leads.

For the thread: Keep in mind my table called for whatever the "one target" success is on every analysis roll and included that in the % clean success. Technically you can succeed some ops and get nothing out of them. This "artificially" decreases the success odds on ops where the analysis roll is less important than the disruption gain.

Personal Log
Captain Pau Cazenave
Now, this is about 99.999 repeating however many places percent a good thing. Woo, we saved the day, rescued everybody, all of that. Bien fait, nos héros and all that, you know? The captain of the Aschaleus himself beamed over in order to thank us, even. Seemed like every second word out of his mouth was some variation on 'thanks'. He even came bearing gifts for me and the rest of the crew.
But, that's where the trouble starts.
You see, it seems the dominance of a certain sort of human has caused a certain misconception among our friends.
That is to say, they all seem to think we have the same love of tea of the Anglos, or else the love of root beer of the Americans.
So, to cut short a long story, I am stuck hauling around a none too-small-box of tea bags with me.
But even that is not the problem. While, like any good Frenchman, I prefer coffee in its various styles, I can enjoy a good cup of tea every now and again.
But therein lies the problem. Good tea.
Every one of these is of English style. And they have the same problem as every English tea-- how did my father put it?
Oh yes.
It's like making love in a boat:
Fucking too close to water.
While I may normally simply not drink the stuff, the captain has been asking if I've used my gift-- and I am, of course, bound to truth, and bound not to insult a gift offered in good faith. What makes it worse is that Chief Engineer Isidora has been taunting me with café noisette, café viennois, or espresso every morning at breakfast, even as I try to suffer through the one thing in the universe perhaps grayer and more bleak than the weather in Britain.
Ah well, joke's on her. I'm the one with bottles of 2190 Alpha Centauri Red and 2203 Mars White waiting for shore leave. See if I share them with her.
End Log.

The problem is that the votes are super overwhelming...
I mean, we could totally post one big slab of logs, and then part of this vote, then another slab of logs and the other part? It wouldn't slow things down much, there'd be active discussion going on the whole time, and things would be less overwhelming?
Enterprise:

And yet, unfortunately, it's just not happening. Maybe the problem is that we don't have someone willing to completely hash out the offensive and defensive votes? (Assuming I did enough for the research votes...) I've been a little busy today but mostly I just don't want to do all that stuff. IDK, we didn't have a problem with this the first time around, but having all three stuck together like this, without even any voting formatting to use, is just too much.

I thought the QMs were after line-by-line votes?[X]Alliterate
I know this is kinda pre-emptive since he hasn't yet posted a complete plan or anything, but I agree with what he's posted so far.
Maybe this will encourage him to post a complete plan too
Anyway, I'd like to know whether sequential, double-hitters like the above are possible, and if they impact the mission parameters at all. Would a successful Surveillance boost the chances at a Raid? (And presumably vice-versa).
Also: anyone who doesn't want Waterfall to 'go loud' should probably specify something like
[][WATERFALL] Watch RWBY reruns
or
[][WATERFALL] Left idle.
as otherwise if [][WATERFALL] BLOW UP DAWNRIM!!11! gets three votes it might

Well, not sure on the above. So- two plans. The first if you're ready for a somewhat risky LOUD RWBY raid in Felis space, the second if you want to keep things low-key.

Omnomnom licorice.
Choosing not to Patrol-Sweep Felis space, as its currently target-rich, Season should identify 2 new Felis clinic missions, and we can thus avoid depopulating the HBZ garrison further. Very willing to be persuaded otherwise by deployment gurus.
In the end I decided to hack Nal Brott rather than depot-double-dip, so we at least run an op in every zone, and use the Blueberry bonus.

Wait, what?
Yikes. There are so many moving parts to remember here, only recognised this because of the spoiler block... there's so much.
For now, cancelling the Depot Raid, as I don't think we've got the pp to cover it? And I'm not sure it's worth it here?
Waterfall costs 20pp to activate? We don't have 20pp left, though?

Alright, this is probably going to be the only time we run this vote in this fashion, since it is leading to a lot of difficulty. In future we will probably be shifting a little closer to something like the syndicate campaign that was largely controlled via legislation and personnel appointments.

I think the problem is the Offensive vote. That by itself is just really complicated and has lots of risk/reward judgements to make. The other things - research, audit, and access, are comparatively much easier, but the weight of them added to the Offensive vote was just too much for everyone. Especially since we couldn't pre-plan it much similar to how the Deployment vote is done. IMO you should just split the Offensive vote to be separate, or change its mechanics to be simpler.
Access, especially, is actually relatively simple (now that I actually looked at it.) It's essentially exactly the same as last time, save that Task Group Greensleeves received a buff:
So, working off Briefvoice's reasoning from last vote, the buff to Greensleeves makes it capable in all three areas that the two Data Backbones needs, but they still have only 16 of the relevant stats compared to Necklace's 22 stats. But for HBZ Policework, Greensleeves has 17 relevant stats compared to Yardarm's 14, and Yardarm has 13 relevant stats for the Backbone assignment compared to last year's Greensleeves with only 10 stats. So I'm switching these two, as it's overall better than last time and the Apinae-Earth Data Backbone was identified as our relatively least important area. (Compared to how important HBZ is.)
Edit: I guess it could be look as the switch adding 10 relevant stats, instead of not switching and Greensleeve's buff only adding 6 effective stats. Something like that.

i thought the 20pp cost came after to action so like we lose say 20pp for the next turn or something.
you know like losing some time on covering up this or that.
then not having that time to so other things (this case political thing) later
else i totally miss read everything so far?
