Yup and Honestly security is probably better Noelle social skills still arent the best

She has Rep 6 despite being completely unknown to the public. Mona started at Rep 7+1, because she's known as the protege super rookie of JU, and then got a boost for her achievement of beating the crap out of Scarlet Maturity.

So I think she would actually be pretty effective at this whole speech thing, and it would allow us to introduce her.
 
I think we should put Chaucer on crowd stuff. His powers aren't great for security but he has lots of people skills and connections and he knows about Project Prometheus.
 
Nah Mona giving a speech would draw people to the event and having them a reason to stay to the end.

Which would boost the chances of good candidate being picked up.

As for Noelle I think its better for a balanced mix of Ju and ND to search for candidates at the very least Miss naugh who has 6 rep too is more well known same for James with 7 rep.

Even with 6 rep you generally wouldnt trust someone unkown to join up in simething as secretive as prometheus.
 
Justice Unlimited and New Dawn holding an event will draw people to the event. We aren't some obscure group trying to bank on Mona's popularity to draw a crowd, Mona is the super-rookie of the most popular hero organization in the city.
Ye but the idea of using the two leaders and the rookie of year is appealing
 
Qm already confirmed that the speech boost the quantity and quantity of Candidates we can get.
With Leizi low rep and Wulong Unknown but likely only good rep having Mona r10 there makes it even.

6 and 7 rep should be enough to recruit candidates when talking directly.
 
She doestn have the feets like Beating SM that Mona has. Its just makes more sense narratively for the Leaders and Rising star narratively and stat wise to make the speeches.

Also lets us maybe keep Valiant Gold a secret until the debate to suprose crusade especialy if we use EB as cover for Prometheos.

Edit: Also Noelle giving a speech would make it a debut which like with how Crusade debuted takes away from making the Fallen the main Focus of the event.

With the recruitment basically something out team does in sly which is why unlike notmal recruitment theres no risk of Prometheus being discovered.

Giving a good speech helps, having charismatic recruiters ALSO helps. The original statement did not explicitly confirm that the rep of the person giving the speech is more important than the person recruiting.

The will help; good speeches juice your odds of finding good candidates, while the people in the crowd actually recruit them.

It's all REP, though some characters will have advantages and disadvantages with the process.

But also, there's the second point, about how certain people will be advantaged or disadvantaged. It's not just a stats game, you need to look at the context.

And the context is that this is a memorial for the heroes who were killed in the Movement. Mona cannot really talk about that, because she didn't actually know the previous heroes of JU and ND that well.

If she tries to talk about how she was affected by the loss of her mentor, Uiara, the problem is that Uiara wasn't actually her mentor. Do you see the problem?

Not Really. Its basically saying that Noelle who was originally a normal Human can now Wield E-B the most advanced Power Armor. which if Stockpile really managed to reverse engineer and understand Exceed as he claims needed both an Algernon actively using their power every second they use it, all thanks to Project Prometheus which is the truth.

Were just not gonna give detail but give the Impression Prometheus is all about E-B and Valiant Silvers successor.

This would hopfully give Crusade something to chew and focus on instead of getting desperate enough to just attack straight up. Since EB is an P13 Armor it would makes sense to them with us keeping it a secret since it oculd be stolen. Combined with the fact BS beating SM making them wary enough to go pr attacks first its a great cover to buy us time to prep more P13's.

As for Revealing the truth thats only when we have enough to tell the world to fuck instead of ganging up on us to steal how to give People powers.

I'm pretty sure the Advantage and Disadvantage was talking about those in the crowd actually recruting people. Also Mona was still an Intern in JU and Workers Mitt was where JU reall territory was along with giving People hope as the Rising Star instead of just how panful losing the heroes.

As for Uirra being her mentor, she can jsut talk about JU being her Idols as Mona like probably a lot of people which allows her to connect with the crowd.

Also what exactly would Noelle talk about? How her mom burn herself out as a Hero but now shes doing same thing? Remember that Noelle has very Mixed feeling about Heavenly Astrogian being a hero while not having a Personal life.

Did Mona win the unofficial superhero tabloid's Rookie of the Year award even with the Crusade debacle?
Rep 10 man even Uirra considered the most respected Hero before the Movement was just an 8. Beating SM along with her personality, powers and backstory makes her such an Icon that Chihiro will just join up with us immediately instead of needing a follow up mission to recruit.

Hell stopping Monarchs attack in the university district made her a Media darling again.

Yeah. This is why I should think either Chatelet or John Henry should be our third speaker. With Chatelet, we have people for every hero team that died in the movement, and with John Henry, we can represent the civilians that died in the Movement.

She can talk about how the death of her mom affected her, and that kind of thing.

It's a memorial service, about remembering the dead.

Chihiro never needed a follow-up mission to recruit.

You keep thinking in terms of pure stats rather than narrative. Uiara had Rep 8 thanks to being really well-loved. By contrast, Mona isn't as much well-loved as much as well-known. People are more in awe of her than anything.
 
The thing about having Mona give a speech is that a public speech also isn't really leveraging her social skills anyway. What Mona is really good at is being able to connect with people and getting them to like and trust her. Putting her on a podium is putting her at a remove where she can't actually talk and mingle with people.

That's a very good quality for a recruiter to have. Any prospective candidates will have to be put through a security screening and background check so we don't need to be concerned about evaluating them on the spot, but we do need to secure their interest in signing up first.

[] Plan: Black Swan Overwatch
-[] Speech:

Preliminary plan for the speech. We know Crusade is planning to crash the funeral, and we can expect that they won't do it by starting a fight. As such, I want Black Swan on security duty since she's our best REP asset. Having the girl who beat Scarlet Maturity free to act should hopefully give her free reign to counteract whatever shenanigans they try to pull.

Not sure who to put in working the crowd though.
 
Ronin gave intel: Crusade have enough taste and decorum that they won't crash the public funeral, but we have an interview with Chihiro right after that wraps, and that's when we'll be debating Silvio, White Hawk, Starlight Knight and Joules. We won't be harrassed during our speeches.
 
I wonder if we managed to find any evidence of Joules running away from the Movement.
[] Plan: In Memoriam
-[] Speech:
--[] Lady Leizi
--[] Wolong
--[] Chatelet
-[] Work the Crowd:
--[] Chaucer
--[] Doctor Silver

Automne and SLAYERS were apparently fairly well-loved, so having someone give a speech about them would go over well.

I think we should start taking more public-facing actions next turn. Crusade seems to be going for flashy shows of heroism to gain popularity.

huh that actually works for representing all the teams. That Died in the Movement.

Nothing for Independents but well thats just how it works in this things. The Juice may not be as big due to lower rep still BS on recruitment does work. That Said I think Chaucer and ND members should recruit too James atleast has higher rep than silver and VG not the mention we need atleast 1 Strong Guy for Security even if Crusade doesnt cause trauble other people might also Dr Silver Clairvoyance is too great in Security since it lets him see people trying to sneak.

[] Plan: Representatives
-[] Speech:

Have People related to the teams Speak up. Black Swan Recruitment and give ND trust to find us good candidates.

Shhhh, no one tell him.

And can confirm there's a big fight going on in NID. I think it's Crusade--I can see Sunlight Knight and Siren in the air.
That's me…

He's the guy who can punch your internal organs. He got thrown into Wonderland 'cuz he killed that politician that sold all of the NID's hydroponics to AGL.
Damn.
Between him and Monarch, it seems at least a few of the people in Wonderland did not deserve to be there.
I kind of hope we can break him out ? He was working with Monarch, and that sucks, but he otherwise seems…okayish ? I'd rather work with him than with Crusade.
Speaking of which, Valiant Red, White, and Blue has been working tirelessly with the top scientists of Allied Global Logistics, Dominion Security Concerns, and Ọsanyìn Conglomerated Industries to create a new, secure prison for the worst villains in this world! No one will escape the Kaitlyn Meyers-Williams Memorial Detention Facility—a.k.a The Brig!
I wonder how solid that thing is. Probably not very nice to live in though, knowing how American prisons tend to be.

"The first is easy," you say, "There's some risk running around Crusade's blockade, but I'll see what can be done."
I imagine this will be an action similar to the Spider's Web one we took.
 
True talk as Mona means not mentioning the cover hmm the stat should be same atleast but should we ask QM?
Mona's identity is public, so this would more for flavor than anything.
Did Mona win the unofficial superhero tabloid's Rookie of the Year award even with the Crusade debacle
Vote is still hotly contested!
Chihiro never needed a follow-up mission to recruit.
Her requirement was going to be getting someone to REP 10. . . which job already have.
Also, um, @Bitterman , there are multiple references to a "Siren" in the Hero For Hire forum logs. Is that supposed to be "Seraph"?
Oops. I changed her name last second and didn't update my notes. Fixed!

And delivering the food will be a global action.
 
BTW QM are the Advantages and disadvantges about the speech,recruiting candidates or both?

Edit: Hmm delivering the food is def important though how much its gonna cost and our funds is the question.
