Have we received the new global actions from eTraction yet? Or was that supposed to be the upgrades to Spoonful and Prometheus?
You'll get them at the start of next Issue.
sorta saw the daughter part coming, did not expect Dr. Ibis to drive the whole gameshow that was meant to poke fun at him.
It started out way meaner! But the characters kind of took over and shrub the power of his BFF John Henry and a general lack of social awareness, Dr. Ibis came out on top. AS ALWAYS.

[X] . . . about the "familiar feeling" power synergy he identified. It's one part [Enhanced Strength], one part [Clairvoyance], but what else?
 
Y'know prior to the reveal of his daughter being called Massive Ibis, I kinda figured Mammoth Ibis was named for the first two things he tried making a hybrid of.
 
I'm thinking about how to handle John Henry's goals.

Firstly: We need to remind him that Le Petit Prince is a bigger threat than the Demon Flamez on a broader scale. The Flamez are irresponsible assholes with no regard for collateral damage. LPP is a monster who treats people like toys.

For that reason, Maddie going with the Flamez mission would be good. She wants info on LPP for her own revenge, and Henry probably has the ability to have game recognize game. She'll keep him in check.

That being said, I do think that if we get a chance, eventually, if he wants to kill Pholgiston, listen to him. Abarimon is a sympathetic case, and Third Person holds people hostage, but I am down for killing Shroud not just for self-interested collecting lego pieces ones, but because he seems like a monster. Pholgiston, too, as well as LPP.

Massive is a nickname, her birth name is Sarah Ibis.
 
Frankly, I'd prefer just doubling John and doing Noelle next turn just since I'm pretty sure we can handle Hero Worship without her (given we assumed we were going without in the first place) and raising John's cap gives us more permanent power and opens a few build options, I'm just also approval voting the triple grouping since it achieves that.

In the world that ends up winning I'd probably still advocate for keeping Noelle's empowerment till next turn since we'd probably be doing her at turn start anyway and it gives at least something going into next turn depending on our actions.
Wed need spend another GA for Prometheus and sugar next turn if we delay noelle of just ether not taking Prometheus next turn and take a different GAs

like the below which doesnt cost money but does cost GA. Id rather go for JX2 and E1 instead of delaying noelle for next turn since its too inefficwnt for me with Chance we have for 2 more heores on Hero worship.

I Fear Not The Man Who Has Practiced 10,000 Kicks: Lady Leizi has fallen behind in combat ability. Even to Menagerie Witch. This is unacceptable. One quick method would be to give her a weapon. She prefers fighting with her hands, but it might be better to not have to touch everything she wants to hurt. And she wants to hurt a LOT. (OPERATIONS check, Build a weapon for Lady Leizi, +1 to Lady Leizi's HIT, Unlocks Global Action I Fear the Man Who Has Practiced One Kick 10,000 Times)

Legally Distinct Shields: Nora's shield generators have proven to be worth their weight in gold time and time again. Unfortunately, they're not the most durable. Time to restock your supply. (OPERATIONS check, produce between 1 to 3 shield generators)
 
If inflation's already kicked in (since it's 2068 in-universe) this is genuinely a spectacular deal for 3 goldnine.
In-universe it's meant to be 2000 Income, same as A Spoonful of Sugar.

It's also not US, but rather Horizon dollars. Although I'm not sure what kind of money Horizon has after thought, since it's a chartered territory not a country.
Hey @Bitterman what kind of currency does Horizon have ? Is it several millions of it enough to buy a helicopter full of anime merch like in my omake ?
Also I have some more questions about Horizon.

Since it's a megacity on an island, does it import most of its food ? Maraujo from what I can tell, mostly seems to be city, goldnine and jungle in between.

And what are the names of the districts ? I think you said there were 13 but these are the only ones I've found mentioned.
Uni District
Worker's Mitt
Foot of the Ladder
Old Industrial District
New Industrial District
Frozen Throne in between NID and CP
Corporate Playground
Marajó Várzea

And the Frozen Throne isn't a district, really.

I've been to figure out positions for all of them:
The Foot of the Ladder and OID are opposite each other, the NID borders both the Uni District and the OID as well as the Frozen Throne, with the Corporate Playground being on the other side of the FT, and the Worker's Mitt is next to the OID and on the outskirts of town.
 
The reason why I'm in favor of getting Noelle in the goddamn robot as soon as possible is because I'm hoping that either Nora left one final note inside it somehow, only available to whoever activated it, or that the Woman In Blue has some direct answers herself and the Stage will finally be able to be explored by us.
 
I dont think going for J2 and E1 is a bad plan since there should be actions that doesnt cost money next turn and 2 S ranks is great.

It just means we may not be able to afford some things like research and maybe PR actions that chihuro opens up for next turn if we dont have the money. So Id rather have some cash for GAs next turn especially since with Chihiro we can counterattack crusade instrad of just being in the defensive.

Still if we go all in we do have atleast 3 actions that doesnt cost Money.

Lastly WM mentioned moving The Spider Web to GA before so without money we can just research all oir enemies.

For me X2 John is half assing things in not just going all in with Buffing both for 2 S ranks or 1 A and S rank.
 
I've only had time to skim, but I do want to point out you have three personal actions at the end of the turn, 50% of the reward table of each is just money.

You got weirdly luck last issue. I like putting neat things on 7.
 
Huh nice that makes Jx2 and El1 way more worth the risk.

Edit: BTW QM can we take Shield Making twice to make even more shields for our Members?

If were going for Double S rank might as well make sure John has a Synergy too.

Now that Bitterman's clarified, we're gonna bet everything on making sure Scarlet Maturity gets us cash! This is a foolproof plan with a 150% chance of going right! (Ignore the misuse of statistics there!)
 
[X] . . . if he has any insight into psychic or anti-psychic synergies?

Superheroes are a terrible business model if you can;'t take control of the government

Im still a bit iffy about the 3 spponfuls but, if we are somehow getting income via the personal actions... well lets see what fresh hell is gonna come our way.
 
So I had a thought. Lantern was described as trying to smooth out a wrinkled sheet in response to the Leviathan awakening.

I don't think she or Hand or the broader Philosophers were responsible for it waking, then, because she wouldn't be as anxious if she knew it was going to happen.
 
WITH GOD AND ANIME ON OUR SIDE
Hilarious! And close on what the R-Train is! +1!
Hey @Bitterman what kind of currency does Horizon have ?
Timbucks, a future cryptocurrency made by an Algernon-type named Tim!

. . . seriously though, I've just been using US dollars since it's easier for me. You can think of it as a fictional future currency that maps onto US dollars.

There are some converted farmland and some hydroponics, but most of it is imported.

The Frozen Throne doesn't count as a borough.
Along with your list, there are the Northern Docks where Mona and Scarlet Maturity fought, the South Docks mentioned in this last update, the French Quarter where Balthazar was, as well as the QZ (military instillation there), the Arable Band, and the Creature's Den (formerly the English-McLeod Neighborly Neighborhood Livingtainment Community).
 
So we're locked in R-Train for turn 5. Additionally, we'd be having Third Person and Demon Flamez as well. So that's 5 AP out of 8 we'd be having next turn (assuming nobody dies at Hero Worship). We're likely to pick Making the Rounds or Pest Control for that one AP.

May I ask what you guys would suggest spending that last 2 AP on? I'd forward Abarimon to accelerate OID control, but if you guys have any other suggestions…
