We still shouldn't push it now. If it'll pay off in 15-20 years, then it can wait another 3-4 while we work on other things. If those other things pay off, we might even end up getting the portals faster. Personally, I want to get our capital goods and energy problems dealt with so we can hammer out the EVA's and then maybe reorganize our bureaucracy or something.

Why didn't the Visitors do that back during the Third Tiberium War, then? Why did they have to send Drone Platforms to build bases instead of simply teleporting buildings (or units, for that matter) to the desired destination? Why did they even need to approach the Earth normally through space instead of teleporting directly down to the surface? All available evidence indicates that even for the Visitors, who are vastly and incomprehensibly more advanced in the field of portals than GDI or Nod, doing this sort of strategic-scale one-sided teleportation is not trivial, and the specific application you are describing is a capability that has literally never been demonstrated by *anyone* that we know of in-setting. I see no reason to believe that GDI or Nod could suddenly achieve what the Visitors could not in an infinitesimal fraction of the time that the Visitors have been working with portals.

Tl;dr; not how portals work, not something Nod can do either. Even our current state-of-the-art portals are shitty as fuck, energy hogs, require substantial portions of GDIs entire GDP, which is far bigger than Nods, and are tied to specific locations, not a free-positioning one-end-only deal. By the time Portals are actually advanced and Nod could have possibly both stolen them and acquired the necessary resources, this conflict is almost certain to be over.

[X] Plan Thinking With Portals
Now this is the kind of mad science that GDI pays the Treasury for (What do you mean the treasury isn't supposed to be a mad science think tank!?).
But in all seriousness, I think this is the sort of big ticket game changer that's going to really firm up confidence in what GDI as a government is doing about the looming end of the world when the times come. People are scared now that the public is aware the end of the world is coming, and that's not going to go away on its own over time just because the clock is quietly ticking down- not when GDI is publicly treating the threat of Tiberium at least on par with the threat of NOD. It may take years and years to reach a point where GDI can fully exploit the portal tech in a public way, but that just means as the outlook gets darker we can start delivering on a revolutionary solution.
Edit: The only real conceivable way NOD could even get access to portal tech is the Threshold, and at best that means its a closely held technology being worked on by Kane's chosen few... and that Kane is almost certainly going to be shocked when he realizes GDI is basically trying to increment itself towards an actual moon based portal network.

I don't know why you think that, this is a blacksite project far as I remember. Nobody that doesn't need to know this is being worked on should know it's being worked on. The public will know about it when GDI as an institution can do something with it.

What part about 'years and years to reach a point where we can exploit this technology in a public way' was unclear? That's my entire point, the public is going to rapidly learn about it the moment we can do something meaningful with it because hiding logistical infrastructure is much easier said than done.
To be able to present a new and radical solution down the road was the core point. We're not exactly going to be able to hide a space station that doesn't receive shipments from the ground but still winds up offloading cargo to translunar cargo ships which is probably going to be what the next phase after this one entails.

This is baseless hysteria.
Nod aren't wizards - for them to know we have working portal tech requires that the project not be a blacksite with no outward communications and a staff that never leaves. There needs to be a plausible line of information; if there isn't a way for information to pass out, Nod can only plausibly know that GDI is working on something top secret, but not what it is. Nod tried to infiltrate and find out what we were doing, and we slammed the proverbial cookie jar shut on their fingers.

Because you also said "people are scared now". The entire point of doing something that shows we're working on solutions is that we can show them.
That said, I seem to have misread your original post. And while I agree with the logic kinda, I still don't think it's worth 400R, kicking most of the other service projects out the window for a turn, and delaying Alloys another turn. One turn does not make a significant difference for Portals in the long run. The way dice are allocated here does seems to hurt some of our plan goals.

Hello thread. Do tell me, what plan has the most space dice?

And I said they're only going to get more scared as things inexorably deteriorate. And I don't think there's a conventional solution around we could throw ourselves hard enough to reassure the populace that 'no, don't panic the world may explode but we'll get everyone out safe and sound'.
I'm not committing to portals just because I think it will be a useful PR tool in a decade. I'm committing to portals because its fundamentally revolutionary in every capacity. Economically, militarily, logistically, and in terms of human survival. The full scope of its possible uses and the costs to get it into that use is an enormous question mark we need to answer as soon as possible. The sooner we dispel more of the ignorance of what getting this technology into use is going to take and going to do, the sooner we can make informed decisions based off more than either hyping it to the heavens, or just retching at the price.
I think that three phases of SADN are enough for now and it is time to develop the next wave of vehicles. We already build the first wave of zone armor and the second one is a High Priority as well.
I think the current situation for zone armor in APC's is that the squad is spread over two APC's and they need a bit more time then the unarmored troops to get in and out due the greater bulk of their armor.
The Governor refit might not be done in time for the landing but as a refit vs a new design it will be there soon after to help with our expanded supply lines.
The hope is that at least some of these have phases that are can be done by the refit department we promised to start and the Nova hawk is another good candidate for that.

First and foremost. Every free dice into space. Columbia gets 3 dice, the minimum for a tiny chance at completing, it's not likely but there it is. The spaceport Bay which we're gonna need in future, also gets a chance at completing and is at least started. Better life support is an easy Gimme. Shala gets four dice to keep that trundling along, phase 4 is guaranteed notably. Then, for space mining because we need more R for a bunch of projects in the pipeline, we spend the last couple of dice on moon mining.
Infrastructure. Nothing fancy. Completes the phase of housing refits and the phase of shuttles. Sets up fortress towns because Krukov has been making noise, and to set up more green/yellow zone harvesting ops.
Heavy Industry. Max dice on Energy. 2 Dice on the alloys, since they're so popular. Toss in an AA dice onto Nuuk because I wanted to use all four bureaucracy dice so, I delayed releasing more cap goods a turn and instead put an AA dice on a project that creates cap goods. It's not likely to finish, but progress is progress.
Light industry is even easier. 1 Dice plus Erewhon on giving Adaptive clothing a slightly better chance of completing and as something fun for our lovely little artist. The remaining 3 dice on myonmers.
Agri, Dairy Ranches aren't in a rush, so one dice on that. Then a spread of dice into food projects, some on mechanisation, because of labour, some on vertical farms to roll them out to our former greenzone cities to help them be more self sufficient. 1 Dice on reforestation to keep that moving.
Tiberium. Yellow zone abatement isn't the issue. So, only complete one of the BZ inhibs (caravanserai) 1 dice onto forgotten to slowly look into them gently. 1 dice to carefully continue co-ordinating abatement with nod. 1 Dice onto GDI's own Red zone border offensives. And, I want Redzone 1 inhibitor. So attempting to roll out RZ1 South marv hub, and toss the last dice onto the refining refits to see if we can either get that marv producing STU's, or at least further Marvs going forwards will have that. Either way, the important part about that Marv hub is unlocking the red zone inhib ASAP along with its strategic position and more red zone abatement.
Services, again. Nothing fancy. Try to finish off the hospital expansions and the university program with minimal dice, begin the library enhancement project for an easy project helping quality of life.
Military. Trans-orbital fighter is my must have. 1 dice on that. Then the red zone 1 marv hub. After that, drones, drones, and zone armour to keep our squishy humans alive.
Bureacracy, round off with an AA dice, I've got plenty of cash so more funding to InOps, and because we've got more consumer goods than we know what to do with, let's sell some to the brotherhood.
edit: Changed one military dice from the scout drones to island class as per request from Khop and to give the navy some love.

First and foremost. Every free dice into space. Columbia gets 3 dice, the minimum for a tiny chance at completing, it's not likely but there it is. The spaceport Bay which we're gonna need in future, also gets a chance at completing and is at least started. Better life support is an easy Gimme. Shala gets four dice to keep that trundling along, phase 4 is guaranteed notably. Then, for space mining because we need more R for a bunch of projects in the pipeline, we spend the last couple of dice on moon mining.
Infrastructure. Nothing fancy. Completes the phase of housing refits and the phase of shuttles. Sets up fortress towns because Krukov has been making noise, and to set up more green/yellow zone harvesting ops.
Heavy Industry. Max dice on Energy. 2 Dice on the alloys, since they're so popular. Toss in an AA dice onto Nuuk because I wanted to use all four bureaucracy dice so, I delayed releasing more cap goods a turn and instead put an AA dice on a project that creates cap goods. It's not likely to finish, but progress is progress.
Light industry is even easier. 1 Dice plus Erewhon on giving Adaptive clothing a slightly better chance of completing and as something fun for our lovely little artist. The remaining 3 dice on myonmers.
Agri, Dairy Ranches aren't in a rush, so one dice on that. Then a spread of dice into food projects, some on mechanisation, because of labour, some on vertical farms to roll them out to our former greenzone cities to help them be more self sufficient. 1 Dice on reforestation to keep that moving.
Tiberium. Yellow zone abatement isn't the issue. So, only complete one of the BZ inhibs (caravanserai) 1 dice onto forgotten to slowly look into them gently. 1 dice to carefully continue co-ordinating abatement with nod. 1 Dice onto GDI's own Red zone border offensives. And, I want Redzone 1 inhibitor. So attempting to roll out RZ1 South marv hub, and toss the last dice onto the refining refits to see if we can either get that marv producing STU's, or at least further Marvs going forwards will have that. Either way, the important part about that Marv hub is unlocking the red zone inhib ASAP along with its strategic position and more red zone abatement.
Services, again. Nothing fancy. Try to finish off the hospital expansions and the university program with minimal dice, begin the library enhancement project for an easy project helping quality of life.
Military. Trans-orbital fighter is my must have. 1 dice on that. Then the red zone 1 marv hub. After that, drones, drones, and zone armour to keep our squishy humans alive.
Bureacracy, round off with an AA dice, I've got plenty of cash so more funding to InOps, and because we've got more consumer goods than we know what to do with, let's sell some to the brotherhood.
edit: Changed one military dice from the scout drones to island class as per request from Khop and to give the navy some love.

Tldr on not liking other plans: too much red zone, too much scattering of HI dice, logi > arcologies.
Also the lack of enhanced spikes in plans makes me sad

Just can't justify it currently sorry. There's been a lot of worry of "What if tib grows faster!" So it gets put on the back burner, until I can spare more tib dice.
I'd love to have it. But IMO we need more red zone abatement first. Instead for our 'mad science' I'm checking out the forgotten, both to see if they have any more interesting stuff regarding tiberium, and to see if we can create more infusions/treatments for those exposed to tib. Potentially even with Forgotten mutation instead of death for our GDI soldiers exposed to tiberium.
Roll out a few more inhibs IMO. And I'd love to go for the enhanced tib spikes.

These seem alright.
I am very concerned a plan without alloys is currently winning. And I get wanting portals. I don't get trying to compete them in one turn.
