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…

9 AP, since getting one more hero gets us to that.

As for 4 AP, we could do both Shroud and Abarimon.

Edit: or follow up on Hero Worship for sweet, sweet money.

I'm currently assuming we have R-Train and Demon Flamez locked in for 3 AP. I am pretty sure we need to do the followup to the MG quest so that we give her the least amount of prep time while it is still cutting off another source for Monarch, locking in 4-5 AP.

From there it depends on how quickly the followup to Hero Worship is needed, IE do we need to prioritize it or Third Person. Make the call there, and then if we do Making the Rounds/Pest Control vs another 2 cost depends on the AP cost of the MG quest (and potentially Reality Check).

Shroud could also get us a sponsorship.

Something to note, also possible that there's a much bigger chance of us getting that sponsorship, since we just healed Arc, who was from that company's family.

"Please," she interrupts, "Call me Charlotte. Charlotte Allard."

"Of course," you reply warmly, "Charlo—Allard?!"

As in Kelso-Allard Heavy Industries? The company in charge of the ever-under-construction spaceport on the Elysium Station?!

hmm...

What about He's Got a Gun? is that on the table?
Edit: I don't like that saying: What I mean is is that an option for us?
Edit 2:
I have a question for the forum
Bitterman said:
Train Kept a Rollin' (AP 2, HIT 6, REPUTATION 8, OPERATIONS 9) The R-Train is the main reason goldnine hasn't proliferated unchecked throughout the world. It is also the reason most Behemoths will never get anywhere near Horizon. It is automatic, unfeeling, and uncompromisable. It has enough firepower to level nations and the ability to continue on indefinitely. And Nora believed you could talk to it. She better be right. Black Swan's extreme sensitivity to psychic fields should allow you to reason with it. Or, if you'd prefer to do it personally, Nora claimed there was equipment in her lab that could let you do so.
Lady Leizi: The R-Train is unrelenting, unfeeling, and provides a vital service to Horizon and the world writ-large. It's also the single-greatest metahuman-created construct ever created. Popular belief is that it was made by an Algernon-type who used their power unceasingly for a month straight until they hit the Rebound. That person was the "Trackmaster". Anyone experimenting with goldnine will inevitably come into conflict with the R-Train. Better, perhaps, if it is on our side.

the underlined section there... Well... rumors usually can help lead to the truth and well...
As anyone brought up the possibility of Trackmaster being the R-Train? Like he integrated himself into to it to complete it or something?

We only have 8AP next turn since John and Chatelet gives us 1AP. Since once reaching 5AP it takes 2 Hero'es to give us an AP.

That said @Bitterman when you said 6+ AP would take 2 heroes for each did that include the Bases cause I just realize. If you meant only the first 5 Heroes gives a +1 to AP we might actually have 8 AP for Turn 3 Since we only have 5 Heroes right now and have 3 Bases.

Turn 1: 3AP
-Ladder Base +1AP
-Lady Leizi +1AP
-Black Swan +1 AP

Turn 2: 5AP
-Ladder Base +1AP
-Lady Leizi +1AP
-Black Swan +1 AP
-Menagerie Witch +1AP
-Handyman +1AP

Turn 3: 8AP
-Ladder Base +1AP
-Lady Leizi +1AP
-Black Swan +1 AP
-Menagerie Witch +1AP
-Handyman +1AP
-The Apiary +1AP
-The Zenith +1AP
-Chatelet +1 AP

Ally Empowerment + Construct Creation + Self Empowerment

We know she has inanimate minions with those guardian dogs, she gave other people powers, and she even uses it on herself.

Yeah that seems about right. Maybe she also has a unknown tag thanks to the FT fragment in her. Kinda like with Primteps maybe?

Not really? Like its something we want to do for sure as it gives Maddy an buff and us an ally. But we have a glut of timed missions from the recruitments questlines/R-Train/ND stuff at the front of the line. Where from there Abarimon is likely necessary to give us enough control over OID to gain control so we can get more base slots which we badly need, so it takes priority as well.

There's a chance we might get the chance to do it during the Fellowship turn but I imagine it might be dubious till the turn after that due to the 2 AP cost and 7 hit requirement + Abarimon existing.
 
Hmm we also have the mission to help the veteran hero that is going for monarch. Although that feels like a turn after next turn mission.

...But Who'd Believe That? 2: Hibiscus Boogaloo — Pitchouli
  • Apocrypha
    • And here is the sequel that I have been obligated to produce. I hope that I will not have my contract renewed for a Season 3, but let's be real, it probably will at some point in the future.
    ...But Who'd Believe That? 2: Hibiscus Boogaloo
    The real conspiracy is why we got a sequel in the first place!​
    You are Michiko Katou. It is three in the morning. Whoever has chosen to call you despite this fact will be learning of the wonderful exfoliation benefits of bathing in goldnine through a live demonstration.

    You lazily grab onto your screen charging at your bedside and check the caller ID, but to be honest, you kinda didn't need to. Your mom knows that you're asleep at this hour given the time difference, which leaves exactly one suspect.

    "Kimi." You respond with practically negative effort.

    "I FUCKING TOLD YOU!" The screaming on the other side of the screen snaps you awake just a little bit more.

    "...Kimi. Do you know how early it is?"

    Your response is a message being sent to you of that one clip everyone's been sharing the past few days of the "Dropkick Girl". You are decidedly unamused.

    "This is it? This is just the same clip that everybody's been looking at the past few days in all of its' shaking, mid-quality glory. So what, dare I ask, is the conspiracy being hidden here?"

    "Look! Look right behind the girl as she's hitting the host!"

    You try your absolute hardest to make anything out from this that isn't characters so smeared by the footage shaking that they're halfway to being unrecognizable. Then again, it's not as if you would recognize anybody here even if the footage was in 16K.

    "Don't you see who's right there?!"

    "All I'm seeing is somebody with a terrible fake tan. Looks like the kind of douchebag that would be put on this kinda show-"

    "That's fucking Mammoth Ibis!"

    ...What.

    "Okay, so the conspiracy this time around is that Mammoth Ibis faked his death. Glad to know we're on the same page now, so first off... how did you jump to this conclusion?"

    "Just look at him! He didn't even try to change his hair color or his face!"

    You look back at the video, still trying to make things out without your lights on. "I'm a little concerned how you managed to grab his face from this."

    "And look! Look! Right at the end, do you know who that is?!"

    Again, it is goddamn hard to make anything out about this, but it looks vaguely like...

    "Alright. If this is actually his daughter, because I still can't see shit, then what? Are you legitimately saying that this failed TV show made by a dating app is what brought down the entire conspiracy-"

    "Why else would they have cancelled it?! Why do you think they got rid of all the footage?! Why do you think-"

    You forcibly end the call and throw yourself back onto your mattress, staring at your screen. Shit, that girl kinda does look like Dr. Massive Ibis... is Kimi, Leviathan forbid, right on something for once?

    For the sake of your sanity, you'd hope not. You'd be hearing about it until the end of time from her, and you aren't sure how many more insane things like "Dogs can't look up!" you can stand to bear.

    ...Wait. Up... Dog...

    In a moment, you shoot right up from your mattress again.

    "WAS SHE ACTUALLY-"

    We actually dont need abarimon to control OID.

    Demon Flames +1 to OID
    MG Followup +3 to OID
    3rd Person +1 to OID

    Since we only need 5 there 3 time limited missions should be enough to get control of OID.

    It's possible that Trackmaster might have done that, but since the follow-up is literally called "Tracking The Trackmaster", it's probable that he's just missing instead.

    NOT MUCH DAWG, HOW ABOUT YOU? +1!

    Also, the Yellow Qilin follow will be a timed mission, but it won't matter when you do it so long as you don't let it expire. She'll have the same amount of "prep time".

    +3 OID is temting though so gonna see what the ap cost are

    Since OID gives a nee base meanigg ng more actions and hero slots.

    Granted sponsorship money would be pretty useful too.

    Thought of another PR strategem:

    We say that Faust wanted access to all of Nora's research during the meeting. Then we point out that Crusade is demanding the exact same thing. Imply that even after he left, his ghost remains, and Silvio is dancing to his puppet strings.

    Silvio either has to say that this is nothing like that or say Faust was right. Either he looks like a hypocrite or he sides with a known evil entity.
