DoofQuest- a Disney Villains Victorious CK2-Style Quest

I agree with all your sentiments except for one thing. Coyote is the perfect Hero unit for completing them as he is an ex-chairman of ACME and a Toon who is naturally a master at entertainment. For maximum benefits it would be better if we do them separately by assigning Coyote to both of them. So, which one do you want more? The castle? Or the Social Media?
We better off doing Xanadu after Chicken Itza. Sure Felldrake would kept his wielder safe, but he won't cough up the location of his super secret stash. Better be patience for a couple of turns for extreme benefits.

Oh no, stick Hego on Social Media. Corny Golden Age Social Network is both the sort of nonsense that's on-brand for us and an organic and direct counter to the Doof-hates-supers narrative.

We don't know. We haven't taken research human genetics as an nw too yet and our "figure our superpowers" action had decidedly mixed results. That said, few people have nearly enough descendants to make it work based on what we know, so I suspect the list of possible people to use it on is somewhere between few and none.
That's....actually quite reasonable. Why hadn't I thought of that before? Thanks for the idea. I am going to edit my plans.

I really think we should just eat having two months of suboptimal PR while laying the groundwork for ourselves to become a serious contender on the Occult scene. With Toffee potentially an antagonist and with a major Occult-themed quest chain coming up, we need to focus and not split our efforts.
Integrate critical success/failure chances? Eventually.
Hm. Possible modification for v2.0 or whatever:

Marketing is typically intertwined with development.
Its not like corporations develop products with no plans or input from their marketing team, then give the product to the marketing team as an afterthought and say "market this."
I mean we could grow a bunch of brainless clones of someone who still living and use those as material for the serum

Sure, but I imagine the person we assign to the project will have some influence on how the project looks. Like, literally looks, in terms of UI and maybe logo, along with the terms used for functions in the system (e.g. the fact that Facebook Friends are called, well, friends, rather than contacts or whatever).
Normally I'd be morbidly curious about what that would mean with Hego at the wheel, but under these exact circumstances? His sense of style would be a boon for us.

We could have Janna on Chicken Itza and set a team led by Khan on Xanadu. Now that we have more heroes to throw around, we should use them!

Jokes aside, it looks cool. But has issues that I'm not sure can be properly dealt with like traits that prevent characters from doing certain things.

Its kinda funny for a quest called 'Villains Victorious' I wonder how many of them are actually happy with how things have turned out.
Their victories pretty much required killing not just their nemesis but the structures that allowed those old rivalries to flourish.
Doof obviously didn't want to KILL Perry, Shego lost both Draken and Kim to something, Mirage definitely murdered a lot of people and possibly had a hand in killing children as well, Monster's inc has gone from scaring children to kidnapping and torturing them, etc..
Now the whole business has turned corporate. You run the structure, you use an economy of scale, you do the paperwork.
Most of the Kings got what they wanted but I imagine a lot of the old guard misses the golden age along with any number of mid and low level villains.

nah Drakken is still alive just with no real power.
I'm sorry you don't like the example plan
Yeah, I mean it isn't going to fix that but, like, it's not the generators job to make sure you don't assign people who can't go on missions. You are still going to have to look up some things yourself.I rate it 0/10, does not contain -inator

The last time we sent a team of Occult 0 people to check out one of these temples, the only reason they survived was because we sent a squad of toons who can laugh off having an anvil dropped on their heads. Trying to duplicate that outcome with a bunch of regular people doesn't sound like a good move.
Eh. A lot of the DVV villains were boardroom types to begin with (Xanatos, the zaibatsu, Judge Doom, Bellwether) or are weird singularitarian threats (Tempest Domain, AUTO, DOR15). Mileage varies.
Also I think Drakken's still alive, just working for Shego and in a rather subjugated state.
To be fair.
You totally have to put 'Inator' on the end of the name.
It's just... necessary, y'know?
...
Well OK, I'll grudgingly grant a pass if you want to pull the whole 'I AM OZMA OF OZ AND ABOVE GENRE CONVENTIONS" schtick. Grudgingly.

Do you want an honest opinion or not? If you wouldn't even allow a suggestion then are you just posting the plan for presentation?

They're showing off their new tool for making plans. The details of the plan itself are largely irrelevant.

Well Syndrome certainly isn't happy.
Shere Khan and Xanatos on the other hand are probably pretty content. Neither are the 'take over the world' types and are honestly more sane/stable/genre savvy business men then Glomgold. While said
Ahh, apologies, I had forgotten about that. I have to agree with Simon. It is better to simply just eat the bad reputation so we can hyper-focus on Occult actions.
Technically Syndrome isn't unhappy.Well Syndrome certainly isn't happy.

I can confirm that unfortunately it would do nothing. It's been brought up before. The Super Mongol Serum works by making you more than 100% Khan. If you're anything less than 100% Khan to start with, the serum doesn't work. I mean that's just basic math.
