You frown.
While you do genuinely appreciate not being anywhere near most of your nominal peers and superiors you very much doubt you've been sent to Mara Sara as anything more than a token gesture after what happened to Chau Sara.
Hmp.
You aren't stupid enough to think you can take on an entire 'Protoss' fleet without so much as a single Battecruiser.
So you'll probably end up grabbing Mara Sara's population and running for the hills at some point, likely both from the aliens and from your 'bosses' back on the Core Worlds.
Good thing you've got a pair of aces up your sleeve for just such a moment.

Look, Wings of Liberty showed us some cool stuff we can get with a mad scientist under our control and not given free reign
A good hiding spot goes well with a command center so we can build up faster.

How effective would the tank be? The text implies to me that its different from Siege Tanks and won't be able to siege, so I'm not sure what makes this in particular stand out.
I think that having more Marines available is worth more than having the command center center since I imagine the command center will "just" allow us to mine for more minerals (which would still be a good thing, I just think having more firepower right off the bat is better).

Better at direct fire than a Siege Tank at least it doesn't need to waste a ton of space on the transforming mechanism.
Oh right for those voting please check the 'voting will open' banner currently showing a countdown.

How would hiring mercenaries from the Kel'Morian Contacts to supplement our forces go?
I can't remember off the top of my head how FTL travel and communications worked in Starcraft and if we would be limited to only mercs in the immediate area or if we could hire some from very far away.
If the Extra Command Center wins the vote I can see it being worthwhile to spend excess minerals/money on them.

Mad Scientists because they will likely be fun and Kel-Morian Contracts for quality equipment at affordable prices & mercenaries to help us out if we get into a pickle / need more troops very fast (or possibly troops better than what we could make at the time).
Tank for a big ol' war machine that would protect us (the Magistrate) within a bunch of metal and be pretty hard for future enemies to take out of without bigger guns.
Between the extra marine armor and extra command center I was conflicted because they're both very likely to be useful either way, but having more marines is easier to understand how it will be useful (guns and soldiers to do stuff for us) while I imagine that the command center will let us get more income/minerals which I'm not all sure how will work (though qm did earlier hint to me that having it could be useful by being something that can travel through space and carry people.)
