A very nice look into the cape scene in San Fransokyo! The dynamic between Downbeat and Peacemaker is great, and so is the tie-in to what's recently been happening in the area. You've earned 500 XP and a canon threadmark.

... frack. I reworked my vote. I've swotched out Assimilate for Comabt Organized Crime... but I've also included a copy of my original plan, so people who want to Assimilate Crime can still vote for it.
First off, pinging the people who voted for me:

If nothing else I suspect the 'Oversized Ego's' preference would make something bad happen.On that note we could theoretically have LOVEMUFFIN deal with the "resistance" for us but I'm not sure how well that would go
I think this is a fair point to make. Let's look at the two actions.Well now that the debate has hopefully been settled there's something I've been thinking about
We have a shit ton of AI research to do if we want to improve Norm Prime and the other Normbots but it might be worth upgrading them with what we have now before the DC gets a huge boost though we should probably do the Mongol training action first

Hmm, you could be right it would only make sense that the Chip that was meant to be used to upgrade Syndrome's Omnidroids would give them the Anti-Super AI but at the very least we would still need to upgrade them with the energy weapons an so im not sure if any of our other AI upgrades would apply to them or just Norm PrimeI think this is a fair point to make. Let's look at the two actions.
[ ] Upgrade Norm Prime
DC 96
You've made some improvements to your AI since you last upgraded Norm, so you might as well make sure he's as cutting edge as he can be. The more Norm-relevant technologies you have on hand, the more you will be able to pack into a single upgrade action. However, the DC of the task will also increase slightly for each new technology.
Reward: Improve Norm Prime
Current Technologies: Slight AI improvement, Energy Weapons
[ ] Upgrade Normbots to current standard
DC 110
You've come up with a few upgrades that should bring your Normbots to a higher level. Right now they're getting the job done but they could always be improved. It might be difficult to rotate them out as you improve them while still maintaining law and order, but it's definitely possible with the right person in charge. You already have the technology!
(Reward: Normbots upgraded to current standard, Normbot efficacy increased)
But I think your worries are dealt with if we simply use the chip to upgrade the Norm bots. That should implement the current upgrades and lower the DC so any future research won't be adding to an already high DC.
[ ] Upgrade your Normbots using the Palladium Chip
DC 50
The Palladium Chip is a revolutionary new means of distributing software updates at previously impossible speeds and with nearly uncrackable encryption. All you need to do is slot it into one bot on the same network and that's it. It even comes pre-loaded with a next-generation Kronos combat AI!
The plan that you voted for has combating the crime instead of assimilating it.Man, I hope Hego being focused on the retreat will distract him from us assimilating Doofania's crime
That actually reminds me of something. We will be upgrading Norm, assuming the study goes well, with software that would help speed his reaction time (among other things). Is Norm capable of actually turning those quicker calculations in to physical movement though? He would definitely still need hardware upgrades to better make use of his software enhancements.Hmm, you could be right it would only make sense that the Chip that was meant to be used to upgrade Syndrome's Omnidroids would give them the Anti-Super AI but at the very least we would still need to upgrade them with the energy weapons an so im not sure if any of our other AI upgrades would apply to them or just Norm Prime
The very simplified version of it is that there's a serious debate over the effect on Hero units loyalties as well as the after effects from what I understand....Can somebody tell me what's going on with the Crush/Assimilate split.
Assimilate initially had a weak plurality due to a split in Combat plans resulting from the lack of Toon Railroad in the Tomorrow plan. Habstab switched over to Crush, meaning Crush is now overwhelming. Assimilate is now primarily lead by the Smooth Criminal plan....Can somebody tell me what's going on with the Crush/Assimilate split.
Also it's a matter of if crime can be used as a resourceThe very simplified version of it is that there's a serious debate over the effect on Hero units loyalties as well as the after effects from what I understand.
This post has a pro/con listDid I miss anything? I'm trying to be as objective as I can but I did vote for assimilate so take this as you will.
Habstab already tagged and alerted them when he made the switch.Heads up:
You should switch back to
[X]Plan: Let's Maximize Our Results:
because the Assimilate option has been changed to Crush the Criminals.
If they haven't already swapped they're probably asleep.Heads up:

I would assume that the Normbots are fine for now, though if we upgrade their AI more in the future their bodies might need upgraded, but for now the only AI upgrade their getting is the Chip, which I presume includes the anti-super AI since that's kind of the whole point of Omnidroids, and the Doppelgänger AI will probably just be left for Norm PrimeThat actually reminds me of something.
