Because i have no vision but feel like it is important to get some more sponsorships (which are also Government tagged) i took Chellwalkers plan and just changed Local Philanthropy as i feel like we need to get the ball rolling for more dice with how the pressure from the mandates keep increasing and i do not want to risk it on one dice because if i have learned anything from this quest it is that nothing ever gets done on one die

I'm not sure that more sponsorship are practical at the moment considering that we just got a shit ton of mandates and things we need to do. Might be better to wait until the next DoP event so that we can maybe but more dice to make it more practical.

So here is a modified plan that takes out the K9 unit and moving one die from DoP clinic into atombugs. Reason for the first is that we really need to up our defenses thanks to Next messing things up and seems like it would be dumb to keep putting it off. Since I'm pretty sure that will absolutely bite us in the ass if we do.

For the clinic think it could wait a turn, since we are dealing with the audit and so seems like it would be a good idea to have some money saved in a just in case. Besides we really need to get started on atombugs and hopefully we can finish it with one die.

On paper yes, but in practice we are likely not going to be able to afford the dice for any sponsorships at the moment. Just look at the projects we got and how we haven't even gotten started on a number of them yet.

Hence why I suggest waiting for the end of the year so that we can buy more dice to hopefully be able to do more things like sponsorship's alongside our mandated stuff.
 
Yes as said above the idea is to begin getting more dice with sponsorships because mandates seems to get harder, we keep increasing the ammount of brain quest we need to do, and every DOP convention we do we come out with even more important projects so i feel like pushing this back is not going to help in anyway.

With that said i can see why we wouldn't do it now but getting a project that can increase our dice other than brainquest seems like something we need because many of them requires funding to complete

I would caution against increasing financial unrest too much, our only current means of reducing it is an expensive and risk-laden project. With sufficient investment in Advanced Fraud there's really no reason to boost it so high in New Orleans.

I agree, I don't think it's really practical in the long term since it seems like it would absolutely cause serious issues. It may even get to the point that we need to do things like make DoP factories in the worst off areas to undo or at least mitigate the damage.

The only reason I'm not suggesting not doing so much is because of the audit.
 
[X] Plan: Twice the Knightfall

I like this plan and next turn peharps start either hiring bodyguards or the Floodwalls in New Orleans, we can use the ecology dice in the latter, and education projects in New Alexandria to trow a egg at the book burning priest.

On the note of security, this is the best turn to hunt NEXT. We need to have that project completed and by next turn it'll have its DC increased due to the case going cold, it's best to strike now while the iron's hot instead of putting it off and potentially failing the mandate. Plus it contributes to Skullder's BRAIN quest.

Serious question, why does it seem like people are completely against hiring guards for our facilities despite the fact that NEXT is literally attacking all of the DoP's infrastructure everywhere? Seriously, every time I bring it up no one gives an answer and it doesn't seem like anyone is willing to vote on it.

For me personally it's simply a matter of time. Next turn we're gonna get a storm hitting that's gonna wipe a lot of our progress, I want to get projects like the New Orleans K-9 teams to their next phase so that we don't have to loose progress unnecessarily. Once we have more security dice on the table I'd be perfectly fine with investing in security guards.
