As long it don't roll a negative Chat with the Bossman increase Loyalty, obviously bigger the roll the more these characters get attached to Heinz and more they develop. When Norm have gone to San Fransokyo he rolled a 15 in one of these chats, I believe, but still get a +5 Loyalty.

it's probably important to remember what happened with norm's a bit different, and was the result of multiple other actions and a really large delay on doing it iirc? (might have been a different action to normal as well, actually? i remember soem "spend some time with norm" personal but not 100% sure this was that)
EDIT: on rereading stuff turns out there's a chat with the bossman for him that'll show up in "coming to terms" but i think that's different?

in other news, even if it caused them to be unavailable for a couple turns, his +5 bonus seems like a permanent buff rather than a three turn one, which is pretty nice?

what I'm trying to say is that results for interactions will vary based on existing relationships. like if a hero unit has hidden traits or something that can actively be changed by getting to know someone more, a talk would be more effective than someone who's antisocial/mercenary and talking can't change that. just something to bear in mind, i guess?
(good example of stuff happening differently IIRC is how something with russ a while ago reduced our anti-government loyalty malus as they got to know us (and how we aren't evil) better. might not have been a bossman chat either though lol:)

Would someone mind explaining why they think that sending Russ to develop contacts with CAIA would help with the Dream Queen? I'm missing a step there, I think.

Russ would essentially be more famous and a lot of doors will open to him in the Paranormal Division once he get's better. Be mindful he will essentially take credit for Mongrama mission however.

Monograma however will also earn respect for his organization and unlock a new personal action that may boost NOWCA.

It's kinda cool to boost Monograma since both Heinz and NOWCA are seen as a joke but Doof is slowly being taken more serious ehile also getting some character development and it's about time Monograma also been taken serious by the goverment.

NOWCA has good sinergy with San Fransokyo since that's a location with tons of mad scientists in waiting

the important thing to know is that CAIA does/knows quite a bit of secretive stuff, which presumably includes something about the Dream Queen that russ doesn't (looks like their memory of it got removed). at the moment, Russ is being haunted by the specters of this past he doesn't know, so finding it out would probably help quite a bit! by taking this actions Russ gets a clear "check it out i'm great" achievement, and he can use the clout to at best get enough influence to figure out what's going on so we can at best deal with it with little fuss and more realistically solve a major mystery and have things work out as a result of that

(also, they have a lot of assets that would presumably help a lot, and a lot of shady stuff that presumably could be very bad if left unchecked)

eh, i mean monogram did quite a bit to help but they don't necessarily deserve a win more than anyone else, everyone played a part here so this isn't "stealing credit".
Russ got taken hostage, monogram got trapped in a wristwatch, etc etc.

getting the achievement of this may make him happy, but it's a single big thing so might cause problems for his reputation long term with getting a big ego/people dismissing it as luck/him being seen as erratic and unreliable, so it could be better to slowly build this up instead of brute forcing it?

I have no idea what you're talking about, Kitsune was clearly MVP. That being said, she doesn't strike me as the kind to like public recognition, so obviously what we should do to make everyone happy is have her return the declaration of independence while disguised as Doctent Russ Doofengram :V
 
[x] Send Russ

riddle and his vague stereotype of a shadowy agent scares me. i could go on, but this seems reliable for quite a few reasons
other options could still be cool though
 
[X] Send Russ

I think Monogram is also a very solid option, but the government connections and Russ being in a better position to deal with governmental bad actors seems somewhat more important here.
 
All three options are good, and i'd be happy with any, but, given we're about to fire up that dimensional portal soon, and that most interdimensional threats fall under Paranormal's remit....Yeah.
[X] Send Russ

That said, I do want to send Monogram on more Bond-ish acts of secret agent heroism in future. Some of his inner monologue in recent updates suggests he's feeling a bit unsatisfied with what we've been giving him. I'd say Zootopia, but, uh, we want to avoid Zootopia next turn for...Obvious reasons, so maybe looking into Florida instead? It's low DC enough for him to be at relatively low risk of failure, and, while it's serious enough to feel like real heroism, it's also something that does fit his wheelhouse to a degree. Evil AI trying to brainwash people through hats? Yeah, that feels like the kinda weird stuff OWCA's used to.

How about San Fransokyo?

Villains there are either mad scientists or go to the technolgical aspect instead of mystical one, heck Livia is a mad scientist, so is right on NOWCA alley.

Hm, true...But we already have a mole in Sycorax, and I don't want to try the cult. That leaves the others, which is possible, but i'm trying to find a DC 100 or below action, since Monogram gets a bonus to those.

It's a tough choice between our covert agent and our overt agent, but I think Russ takes it this time.

There are some options, one of the greatest advantages NOWCA has it's they animosity since nobody suspects little animals to be spies

Sycorax DC 93, Funtelligence DC 103, Bakaemono DC 108

I think these three companies are based on San Fransokyo, correct me if I am wrong.

Sycorax still a option to embed more agents when we be forced to pull out Mesmerella out and NOWCA agents can learn even more than a human could since as mentioned before nobody suspect little animals, Funtelligence is another option as well and is just a bit above 100, even if we fail the next attempt will be either in 100 or bellow something with Bakaemono.

[ ] Investigate Celebration
DC 100
Take a walk down Main Street USA, and investigate how deep the hypnotic rabbit hole goes. While the initial information came from a very absurd source it was corroborated by the report that Olivia had filed, more than meriting an investigation.

There's also the investigation in Celebration if you so desire and is on 100.

If we only focus on Monograma bonus than the guy will never achieve anything important. Also maybe we can boost NOWCA status as well GalFed cloaking tech will possible be very useful for them as a example.
