To Rise From The Ashes

Probably four weeks, unless we get lucky with more recovery rolls. Again, repairing both Jaegers to top condition is my preference and it could serve as a nice symbol for morale. You can still propose to leave it for later and I might even vote for a plan like that, if I think it's better than the alternatives.
On the subject of research and actions, what research projects do we have to use Actions on?
Breachgate: We have two prereqs before finishing this, increases stability and figuring out a Receiver for the gate.
Breach Storage: We have four prerequisites: stabilizing the bubble, a mobile entry point for the items to enter and leave the bubble, greater energy efficiency and a way to link the entry/exit point and the bubble over a distance. Breachgate Research will make this easier, so there's little reason to rush this before finishing that up.
Magical Magic: I still think we're getting ahead of ourselves by trying to make a Wizard Academy before we even have the tech tree unlocked, but it's progressing and we might have it in two or three weeks at most unless we get really unlucky.
Barrier Shield Unit: practically done, and we voted to get a Superheavy version last turn.
Jaeger Upgrades: Stat-wise, Tacit only has one point left before reaching the cap. That's two actions to increase the HtH to five. Jagdhund has three points left, but she's down for now, so no need to rush just yet.
Cost-Effective Jaeger Reactors: The Stellarator is almost as cheap as it gets, and there's the idea of getting a Mark IV/V reactor that works like the Mark I/II Reactors. That's one action a turn at most.
Superheavy Mini-Mecha: We talk about them from time to time but they're not a priority at all, at least for now.
Hypercompact reactors: We need a way to power all the nice toys we want without making every unit a Superheavy. This is the best answer to that.
Ignoring the Not-Gundams and the Breach Storage, that's six projects. We have ten actions, plus two free J-Research and Breach Research actions. We'd still have actions to spare if we used one action for each of these projects and repaired both Jaegers.
There's little reason not to do that now. We have lots of things to repair, but we aren't exactly starved for actions here.
Unless we get a crapload of resources or a free Mark III Frame, we're rather far away from a new Jaeger, so there's no reason to research that just yet.
And yeah, that sounds good to me. The other thing we need to research to finish the Breachgates is the receiver, by the way.
