So basically, we have 4 options with this ENCOM thing.
1. We buy out Olympia's shares, and sell both to ENCOM (gain a ton of funds, hurt Olympia opinion, Alan pissed, no grid plots)
2. Olympia sells, we Sell (gain some funds, Alan pissed, no grid plots)
3. We buy out Olympia and don't sell to ENCOM (lose funds, Olympia slightly weaker, Alan happy)
4. Olympia Sells, we don't (???)

...hmmm, would we mind her doing something that´s kinda her job as infiltrator whose official story for "jumping ship from DEI to Sycorax" is "creative differences with Doof and just general dissatisfaction"...
Nope, no worries there - honestly if we were playing as someone more sneaky than friggin Doofenshmirtz, we could use that connection to *plant false intel in their heads* as well.

Very glad they are looking into negaduck. I know we were going to try and work with the Feds on this but I'll take them doing it on their own.
Interesting.
Bit of a bummer we didn't want to do this without Russ being there but at least it's done and done successfully.
Maybe we could do some pro toon actions to boost our rep with them?
Oh, hell...
Can't fault them for wanting to sell but that let's them get control of one of the only computer area they aren't in. And in character we have no reason to fight this.
We need Alan to finish Civilian AI and we need to chat with him. Maybe he will spill the beans on why encom is trouble.
Bloody hell...
At least our rolls here went well but this is looking like another "Kat starts the invasion" kind of event.

So let's see. We apparently have a Negaduck interlude involving Negaduck, the US government, and Xanatos. Someone stole the Frobot head and its getting an interlude as well.
Worrying for the former but it should give more info there if nothing else. A Frobot no longer being in Doom's possession is good and we'll presumably see who stole it soon.
Bonkers as an action is gone and we only lost some reputation with the Red Car, not amazing but not the worst thing there.
The moonbase is completed which might tie into the recent prophecy, the Huntsclan is on the rise, and Xanatos is continuing his push into genetics. Shego broke Impervium and made progress on the exclusion zone. We were already curing genetic diseases next turn due to the directors but this further solidifies going on this and pushing at the government to allow us to work on the exclusion zone.
Liv has offered collabs and so we'll have to see the options. She's not trustworthy but one of them might be worthwhile and on something that is not too concerning to give her access to.
Olympia has offered us the chance to buy Syndrome's island but it is stated that it'll be a money pit. Additionally, ENCOM is trying to buy out our OS from us and Olympia. We obviously can't sell it but there's the matter of if we should and can buy out the shares from Winston. It'll stop ENCOM from getting a foothold but will cost a bit and will deprive Olympia of some money,
That is going to be a tricky one to balance with all of the other fund sinks we have like Star through the Dickens, quests, and the franchise wars but we'll have to play it by ear once we know more and see if we need to stop one of the metaphorical plates from spinning.

Not sure if we've had an example of this kind of unattainable DC being chipped at, but if not neat to see the mechanics involved. Maybe we could have been fixing Bueno Nacho all along (not that we should have).
Regarding our purchases, we probably shouldn't buy the neat flying island? I mean, so cool, but it's just going to be wildly expensive for unclear benefits. Maybe there'd be some leads into the Incredibles there, or some old Syndrome tech lost in a cave somewhere?
The Encom thing is basically the Toffee deal but for Alan. We didn't buy the corn, we shouldn't sell the OS.

Well whoever tried to steal the frog shaped object only rolled a 52, and we have no idea how locked down Doom is keeping that thing. If he's still plundering it (evidence for is that he's still keeping it around so he's probably got a use for it) I suspect the DC to be higher than 50. If he's just tossed it in a safety deposit box I guess I could see it being a close failure? Whatever happens I suspect will be... interesting.

Interesting that we got some exhibits out of it without needing to invest an action. That hadn't been clear in the turn reports, I believe.
Yeah, that's some new information, good to know. So Glomgold can see we're making solid progress.

Ah. This seems slightly ominous.
Wait, am I misunderstanding, or does the island fly? And if so, how? It might not be worth it to buy it just to look at the tech keeping it afloat, but I'd be interested in taking a peek at the undercarriage of that sucker.
Ah, so we might yet get Doof his titanium arms after all.
Glomgold found a way to profit off all sides of the Food Wars even as he makes them heat up. Makes me think we should get out while the getting is good and ingest in Crop Gene Sequencing instead.
Only IC downside I can think of is that we'd be essentially gift-wrapping them a monopoly on computer systems.

Well, that's certainly a lot going on and the various actions are heating up and once more it shows the importance of persistence with a path
For the dinosaur path, we have at least two more Stewardship actions before Glomgold makes his off (large carnivore and large herbivore enclosures) but I don't think we have the heroes to take both simultaniously and there are other Stew/corporate action that might need doing (like company retreat)
(though I do wonder if doing both together would give a bonus or a malus)
(I've completely forgotten who Red Car is, though, but it's good they helped Bonker out since it will put our toons in a better mood to not have him mess jokes up)

We can actually do both at once as a single DC 150 action, if we're willing to spend additional funds. How many additional funds has not yet been revealed. Although the odds for individual success are lower (only 42% instead of 72%), the overall odds are considerably better. The only questions are if we'd need to spend the funds each time, and how many funds.

A Homeowners Association? Truly, their evil knows no bounds!
Hmm. I note a distinct lack of Ham. Does this mean The Hammer has been elsewhere, or just not making waves? I may have to change this, this report is giving me... ideas.
Hmm. I wonder, has Doom bitten off more than he can chew here? I could see a Columbo character getting chosen as a patsy, then turning out much more competent than expected.
I see that the natives of Pedestria are restless. Good, good.
Ok, Alan, moment of truth. I think you've now officially run out of time.
Well phrased. Truly, tourism is an act as heinous as any crime.

Yeah, Negaduck channeling King Bumi is less than reassuring.

The Franchise Wars are heating up, so I propose we use our dinosaur meat to its fullest potential and start a themed restaurant ala Rainforest Cafe, but dinosaur themed.
Doofenshmirtz's Prehistoric Cafe
Doofenshmirtz's Jurassic Fork
Doofenshmirtz's Dyno-BITE
I'm not good with names.
But what is the protocol for suggesting write-ins, again? I can't find the info. >.>

mook.
We could have started working on cooperating with the feds on Negaduck this turn. We put it off to work on Silphium instead. I don't think this was the correct choice.

Dunno about that - Silphium might not have allowed us to dogpile onto ND (which admittedly woulda been nice given the kind of bedfellows we d have made for "Sandbagging"), but it does allow us to handily circumvent Bradfords demands to make inroads into a new market *or else* thanks to its banking of 1 Standing in Healthcare.
I d call it a good-enough trade.

Mirage thinks it's sketchy, which is generally a good enough reason to toss whatever spanners we have on hand into whatever works are within arm's reach.
That damn sheep! She would've blamed us for anything bad like infrastructure breakdown or tornadoes if Rody didn't succeed, didn't she?
And I'm sure we will still get flack from that Red Sun interlude.....
Negaduck having a burn out seems interesting.
Hm.... Should we ask Alan for his opinion on the sale? He is the code guru after all....
It's certainly would be more reasonable than why we refused Toffee, IC at least.
I'm interested in the clolabs with Liv Amara.
That's all, I guess?
