[X] Plan: Diplomacy and light navel build up
-[X] Independence Day
--[X] Accepting Independence's offer
-[X] Atlas Shrugged
--[X] Write-in: Send in a negotiator first to try to persuade the "settlers" to come quietly use messages from friends and loved ones, the lack of resources and resupply, any pre-existing medical conditions, the unknown dangers of Charybdis's biosphere and offers of clemency in court (they are trespassing after all) for anyone who comes peacefully, if/when people reject this offer send in the police equipped with the best gear and protection to limit the risk and with orders not to use deadly force unless absolutely required and anyone who resists arrest will have the book thrown at them.
--[X] While this is happening start a media campaign to discredit the idea of starting more such wildcat settlements and present the "settlers" as the foolish irresponsible headaches that they are, use facts about the potential dangers of an unexplored world, the massive costs and effort such an endeavour requires and point out that if people want to leave Helghan or even the Republic there proper channels to go through.
--[X] No matter how it happens the would be colonists and anyone who sets foot on the Charybdis will be going into quarantine until we can be sure no one has picked up anything dangerous from the planet.
-[X] Allan B. Calhamer's Diplomacy
--[X] Write in: Refuse to return the refugees or pay reparations then send in intel operatives to find anything that can be used to justify a proper take over of the planet while spreading positive rumours about the Republic (for example "They live on a death world but live better lives then us", "Their so rich some of them take leisure trips to other worlds", "worlds that join the Republic become rich too", etc) backed up by "smuggled out" evidence and starting an underground railroad.
-[X] Subsidised arms sales: By selling Rockwellawan's government high-quality arms at rock bottom prices, the Republic can engender goodwill with the system.
-[X] Upgrade Mechdur's factories to Helghan Standards. [Progress: 4/5 turns]
[Action Point Locked Until Completed]
-[X] Negotiate Visa Deal: developing a visa system with the Aurigans will help people from both nations mingle.
-[X] Entice Taurian Companies: By offering generous grants and tax rebates to the Concordat's major companies, it may be possible to tempt them to set up satellite facilities on Helghan and Mir. If successful, this may help improve Helghan R&D and will secure a supply of items at lower prices.
-[X] Entice Canopian Companies: By offering generous grants and tax rebates to the Magistracy's major companies, it may be possible to tempt them to set up satellite facilities on Helghan and Mir. If successful, this may help improve Helghan R&D and will secure a supply of items at lower prices.
-[X] Expand FTL Comms Network: Having had to promise to link Canopus to the Republic's own FTL communication network to secure the Canopian vote for the Mutual Defence Pact, we should build said link ASAP. [Progress: 1/5 turns] [4 Turns Remain Until Negative Effects Occur] [Action Point Locked Until Completed]
-[X] Invest in Battlemech Construction and Maintenance Facilities: Though the Republic currently has a standing force of battlemechs on Helghan, the parts needed to maintain and repair these vehicles must be custom made to order or else purchased from our neighbours. With the help of some additional funding, we can order work to begin on a factory complex specially designed to construct battlemechs. [Progress: 0/3 turns] [Action Point Locked Until Completed]
-[X] Construct a Hasta-class cruiser Squadron: Task your shipyards with constructing Three Hasta Cruisers. [Can be taken up to multiple times a turn] X2

--[X] Terrain Engineering [1.05/3]
-[X] T7 Arc Cannon: Based on a recovered design first made by Stahl Arms, T7 Arc Cannons fire a short-ranged, highly-charged bolt of irradiated petrusite which can vaporise full-grown adults through steel plating.
-[X] Combat Vehicle Design: Lynx MBT
-[X] ASF Design: Serpent multi-role fighter
We're starting to run low on uncommitted workhorse cruisers and they are obsolete now so we need to keep pumping out Hastas to replace them and prevent ourselves from overstretching our navy.
Carriers can be a good alternative to our missile cruisers as they don't require a large commitment of Petrusite to build.
Anyone have any input?
