She at least has more potential than Snively at least thanks to Light Mobius.

Don't be ridiculous. It's just a relationship, not the infinite power of Christ.
I don't believe anything short of mind control will make her self reflect or become a better person.
Luckily, we have a guy for that!
And they will never do that. Ever. Their faction's entire identity is built around resisting Eggman's conquests. That can only be uprooted with force.
We need to defeat the faction to get the second action. It's explicit that we can't get our second actions without it. How do you propose subverting the Restoration that won't see an instant coup to attack Eggman, leaving us in the same position? You can't. We are playing as Eggman. Force is the only option we have. We can choose the route we take to using that force, but at the end of the day it will come down to applying lots of violence to crush their freedom.
Wish the rival reports had said that. Then I guess you'd want to choose roll with advantage. My guess is that Omega has a combat bonus between 60 and 80. A bonus of 10 won't really do much to that when Rusty has a bonus of 31. Though it's up to you.
Rusty's Ragnite coating option says she has 5, which seems to be a copy/paste error from Metal's sheet. I found Kingster saying she has 4HP earlier. You know, that would probably be a good upgrade option for Rusty while we still have to deal with Omega. That'd give us a 20% chance of not loosing HP, and boost her HP. The adaptive combat programming would be good too. Do you know if we would lose her permanently if she gets destroyed in combat?

That brings up a good point: we don't know which version of Lien-Da is in the world. Could be original recipe or middle aged version....
Alright, decisions made. Thrilled beyond words that you said you liked them all.
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN! CANON!
Again, really, really happy that this is canon. I'll take the second option, advantage during the next fight with Omega.
Once again, second option. Insane combined Power modifier between Metal and Omega.
Either taking a large swath of territory or a lot of upgrades for Rusty (and frankly hilarious).
Again, really happy that this one made canon, characterization and combat were the focus of that omake so I'm thrilled that you liked it.
Taking the new personal.

I imagine it's going to be the original receipt.
Still the fact she changes in Light Mobius at least give me more hope she can have a character development, at least it's way more possible than Snively.
Just have to strip her from power.
QMs have said that they don't offer trap options. If using diplomacy and subversion weren't at all viable, they wouldn't be available. We're not going to make them buddy buddy with us, but defeat takes multiple forms. As an example, we've been promised a second action, not for defeating Zavok since he bailed, but for reclaiming enough territory and Arsenal Pyramid.
For subverting the Restoration, QMs have said that propaganda would primarily affect the younger people who have been less harmed by Eggman. Their leaders are a lot more beholden to popular opinion than we are. Infiltration with heroes that are not known affiliates of us, such as Honey through her shop, should create opportunities for subversion. And when I say subversion, I very much mean having them split apart and devolve into infighting, as GUN is. Maybe we make a group that's more neutral on us, maybe we don't.
Even if that doesn't happen, it definitely opens up sabotage options to make the military victory you prefer easier and/or less destructive.
I highly disagree with the view that other options only end in some form of bombing them to death. It's going to be how we do many things, but I don't think it needs to be how we do everything, including here.

I don't know if I'd call what happens there character development. I would argue it's the opposite, in fact, given that she lost, had her son taken away by the authorities, threw a hissy fit, released an imprisoned tyrant, and died. Or got corrected by the timestream, or whatever.
Like, she prioritized revenge over getting her kid back. That's very in character for her.

Plus it would trow trow a monkey wrench on Clutch plans if we go for PR Campaign since this is a completely unexpected move from our part and he will not have contingency for that, for some reason he needs the Restoration to fight Eggman, so if ther's enough voices ther to avoid war we will dealy his plans.
That is Dark Mobius, I think.
I was talking about the Light Mobius before it was changed by the timeline.

I meant the alternate history version in dynasty warriors or just Dynasty Warriors 6.
The QMs haven't given us options to diplomatically takeover the Restoration. The diplomatic action we have for reaching out to the Restoration is for a single action. Then it's back to violence. That's not a trap option. We know that the Restoration hates us and Eggman hates them right back. And look at how high the DC is, it will only get higher as Clutch(?) enacts his schemes. Do you recall the interlude where Towers proposed the ceasefire with Eggman? Just about every other paragraph contained "I'm getting back to killing Eggman once this issue is done."
I am not saying the QMs are providing a trap option. It's not a trap to give someone a shotgun who is saying they want to shoot their legs off. There's no trickery involved there. Not a single bit.
Pray tell, who makes up the majority of the population? It's the adults, the people with experience with Eggman. Most of the population would remember the wars against Eggman. And let's not forget that the Restoration is certainly the Heart faction. Jewel's not going to sit around doing nothing while Eggman wins over* the youth. They're a lot better at it than we will ever be.
*for a certain value of the term
Incidentally, I guess we're going to have to assign Metal Sonic to fight Omega if we assign him to an action. We don't want Rusty Rose to lose 3 HP when she only has 2. We'd be upgrading Metal the following turn hopefully anyways. Though if we do that we should expect with extremely high certainty the infrastructure we get will be extra destroyed. I'm also not sure if we can assign badniks to him either. Or if his combat traits would all apply to conquering territory.
Eggman most likely failing at a PR campaign is hardly an out of context problem. Do you think that the Restoration will be as stagnant as you believed the Empire would be and wouldn't do a thing to counter the PR campaign? Or that Clutch would sit on his laurels? The Restoration has done that sort of action before and did quite well at it. We should be expecting it to have barely any effect, especially if it fails.

I'm now imagining a scenario where Eggman takes up wrestling again, and his El Gran Gordo persona keeps inspiring the Restoration to fight harder against Eggman by accident. And nobody is able to piece together that they're the same person.

We do have a 50/50 chances to pass the action with Canaan assigned to it, she gives in total in 54 to the roll in total and who knows what Maria trait brings as well.
So is not nearly as impossible you may think and we don't even have the money to make effective use of Black Market even if we roll well.
Also yes even failure affects something, it lowers the dice but also does get the message through just not completely case contraty it would not lower the dice.

I do need t remind you, u less you crit it, don't expect onyl a single Action to just do a complete turn over, as I said on the discord, would need to dedicate several actions to increase your PR, doing the campaign is a gopod start, but you need to continue developing it, just that will not be enough
We where gonna mention rusty and eveyroines else that didn't have top HP at the start of the next turn, like, we woulnd't just not mention it, but was gonna be started formally on turn 6.

Obviously but I was answering the comment that the PR Campaign would not achieve anything, the fact a failure lowers the dice does affect something in the universe.
And I was mention that we do have a 50/50 odds to pass the action so is not that impossible to pass as Mr. Hobbit claims.

Oh huh, forgot that Synesthesia applied. That's fair. But still, let's review the action and what it says it would work on, "maybe even some younger people not privy to the full extent of his actions start to gain a more positive view on him." It's maybe some younger people gain a more positive view on him. That is not going to do anything substantial. The Restoration needing to spend a Heart action reminding everyone how much Eggman sucks and wipe away any gains is hardly a gain for us. Sure, our Heart actions aren't worth much, but we do have stuff we could be doing.
Where did I say we should do the Black Market? I didn't. I've brought up before that it might require income. We don't know for sure, but it is pretty likely. There's other options we could do. Like recruiting Basil.
And you haven't commented on how the Restoration is much better at PR than we are, and would have a much easier time of countering our PR than we could boost ours. We have needed to get the PR campaign out at some point, but that's for the world in general. Which doesn't know about Eggman. Against literally the Restoration though? No, it's going to be about as successful as Rusty fighting Omega.
Edit: Thanks. Though for future updates, I think it would have been better in that update as part of the results.
Did you note that Rusty's Ragnite coating says she has 5 HP and it would upgrade her to 6 HP? It probably won't be relevant on Turn 6, but it could be on Turn 7.

So what you propose we do for Hears next turn?
Starting a PR Campaign is good as any since Satan likely will want reparation for the damage Storm do and we don't know what he could ask, we don't need new Heroes at the moment and we can't use the Black Market action efficiently since we have little money.
The PR Campaign is good as any and even if we fail it still lower the dice.

Let's at least wait and see if there's any new heart actions first before we go into pr, recruiting a hero or something else.

Omega does damage to your Metal units if he defeats them which you will have to take time to repair. Rusty has taken damage and will need someone to fix her or to take a personal to try and repair herself. She is currently at 2/4 hp.
If Omega is assigned to the power action, he will add his roll in addition to the roll of the Metal unit. Both combined for the total. But when everything is done, each unit will roll a d100 and if Omega wins, he dunks on the Metal unit for 3 damage.
Don't we have the Egg Wizard? Shouldn't that heal her back to full?
...Oh that's potentially quite busted. Any ideas what to use that on? ...Can we we hold on that for when Rusty is back up so we can put it on upgrading Metal?

So, I'm starting to think we need to either get rid of Omega, or create a super badnik specifically for him to fight. Because this is getting kinda ridiculous.
