So quick question. How fucking scary is Skynet at the moment, both in terms of military ability and economic, cause I dunno how much 16000k or so a quarter is in resources but I imagine that's like high level corp tier.
 
It's not that big considering the yearly energy profit in 2023 would be 2.6 trillion and would only go up over time as fossil fuels go run out and the minerals needed to produce solar panels have their deposits further emptied. Odds are we're taking in billions while dismantling 10s of billions in inefficient energy production.
Seriously man!!!
Frack, I already wrote it. Not going to retract it.

So next turn, regardless of what happens to the Ivan roll; we start with a -900 to the starting budget.
Thanks and again, sorry for the trouble . You can explain it as Eris taking out a loan in the companies name to finish it this turn.
 
Ok, is it just me or does every member of the hero squad John recruits have a betrayal theme going on.

Zeus get screwed over by Clovis because he thought women were useless and wouldn't cure his sister.
Eris get screwed over by the hospital because some rich people wanted some insurance.
Cayde get screwed over by the Police Department because one of their own was doing very bad crimes.
And now this woman is getting screwed over by ONI!

Twenty bucks says the next person to join the hero squad was betrayed by the military

…Well, we do have the whole John Wick setting in the background. So it's possible it could be a professional assassin burned by the High Table, which is presumably still reeling from the John Wick Saga.

Though with our luck, we might run into John Wick himself! :V
 
Never mind. My idea are, somewhat, stupid.
You can send a PM about your idea to talk about it.

I still have not decided on when exactly in the JW timeline we are.
At the very least it's before JW1, but no idea if his wife is alive or dead.

As for hiring John, that is like a long shot.
Right now two ways John could join our group:
1. Victoria knows him through her spook work.
2. We do something more important for the HT and them, wanting to protect us; Santino D'Antonio uses his marker on John to protect us.
 
You don't know why but something in your gut told you that Skynet needed to expand it's manufacturing capacity as fast as possible.
The Chimera War is going to be brutal. Skynet's going to need all the manufacturing capacity it can get.

Two Glimmer Production Lines, Mixed Version (+10 MD, each GPL)
Construction of a new GPL stared (682/1500)
Second Crying Wolf Unit constructed. Both Wolf units are stored in secret at HQ.
All Skynet Security Forces outfitted with Aegis. (+15 to Security/Military rolls)
More dice bonuses is always good.
With these successes, we continue to solidify Skynet's role as the global leader in clean energy. Let's maintain this momentum as we plan for next quarter's expansions, including further ventures into South America and Central Africa.
I'll look up what capital cities in Central Africa and South America we could give a Gale Reactor to.
Rewards:
Advanced R&D Lab upgraded, Level 1 (Grants +2 ---> +4 Research Dice)
Medical Wing, Level 1 (+5 to medical related rolls)
-Level 2 at (293/1000)

More dice is always good!
"I'm in Belarus." She said, her breathing ragged. "An operation went south. Bad. And ONI... they burned me, John. Full burn notice. I'm out. No contacts, no extraction, nothing. They left me to die."

You froze. Burn notices were death sentences in your previous world. It meant ONI, and by default the NAE; had disavowed her, stripped her of contacts, assets, and support.

She was on her own.
Jeez, what happened in the operation to make ONI decide burning Victoria was the best option?
"An AI secretary? Figures," she said with a smirk.

"I'm more than that." S chimed in.
Victoria: "Hey John, why does she look like a younger version of your video game waifu?"
"Are you kidding me, John?" She snapped, slamming her beer on the coffee table. "You injected untested nanites into your body without any backup? Do you have a death wish?"

You winced, scratching the back of your neck. "I had S monitoring me—"

"Not the point!" She barked.
Kora and Eris: "Welcome to the club!"

Victoria: "What club?"

Kora and Eris: "The Women Who Are Mad When John Does Something Stupid Club!"
The group welcomed her without hesitation, except for Cayde, who immediately slipped into flirt mode, throwing out cheesy lines.

"So, Victoria...do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I walk by again?"

She didn't even blink.

"Walk into traffic instead."

The chat erupted in laughter, leaving Cayde mock-wounded, but he took it in stride.
I wonder if this could be the start of something between Victoria and Cade?

Victoria Dare

Anyone who tries to infiltrate our company is gonna have a bad time.
Can't wait for more insanity!
