Eh. There's enough in the way of neat stuff locked behind expansion thst I would like to do so soon. That said, I think improving our city would be an excellent use of our resources. But I'm more thinking about Augments.
First, I think investing in some Kaiju Salvage Facilities would be an excellent idea. We've got room for five more, and they cost a fifth of what increasing Manufacturing would cost. And may actually give out more resources per-turn, depending on how big the Kaiju is, even individually. Alternatively, we could research a facility to increase our non-Kaiju-derived Resource gains, and install those, instead. Whatever the case, investing in increasing our Resources seems like a no-brainer.
In a similar vein, studying those computers we recovered, in order to replicate them and get us more Comms actions, via Augments, could be useful. Comms, after all, includes salvage missions, as well as scouting of various kinds. And we have 6 free Augment slots.
We also have a lot of space for Scan Augments. Researching Augs to boost our range and reliability would probably be a very good idea, before we try expanding. Maybe some specialized ones for detecting certain kinds of Kaiju? I dunno.
Edit: Going to give City Augments their own section. I think they deserve it.
Huh. Neat. I didn't look at it for long, so I missed that.
Radio is pretty useless for long-range, since Iblis is up in the clouds, jamming all our transmissions. And it's because the only one we have is focused on Breach energy. We probably want more varied type of boosts, for our additional upgrades. Like super-coffee, to keep the Scan techs from falling asleep.
