Promoted Henchmen will start at (1) which is a rough indicator of talent. According to my list of henchmen I have ones that range from 2-4. A promoted one will level faster however. so theres that toss up.

[IronyOwl]

What's the difference between different tiers of minions, and does a minion's effectiveness vary within tiers depending on its job? Is a Guard better at guarding than a Thug, for instance?

[Toaster]

Tier is an indicator of availability, mostly.  Tier 0 costs $100 and Tier 1 costs $400, while anything higher must be captured/trained.

IIRC from the last game, some minions are better at some things than others.  A good example is thugs and bruisers- they have the same ability set, but bruisers are better at... some things.  The actual difference was never disclosed.

[Maxinum McDreich]

Basically, Thugs are better than regulars at raising cash, combat rolls, and can extort. Guards are very good at guarding, not sure on anything else.
Technicians not only upgrade the base better, but, if I remember rightly, also had a boost in plotting.

This is all based on the original game, so it could have all changed. :3


Also, remember to make up your secondary trait!

[RulerOfNothing]

Maxinum McDreich, I think you meant to say that technicians are better at general mayhem, since they can't plot:

Technician: General Mayhem, Enhance Base 2(2 Minion Weeks of labor at a time)

[IronyOwl]

I see.

As for trait, yeah. Still working on that one. Also I need a classy name for it- can't have an awesome trait with a lackluster name, now can we?

[Terenos]

Oh aye, a guard is much better at guarding than a thug. And techs are somewhat better at general mayhem overall. The exact numbers are of course hidden.

So true IronyOwl.. some days I spend just coming up with awesome names for traits, henchmen, research..

Unless i'm able to get the turn together tomorrow, we will not be seeing a turn until Thursday. Just fair warning.

[Toaster]

Poke?

[Neyvn]

Is it host or is it players that are slowing us down???

[Ehndras]

Host, I'm pretty sure everyone posted their turns. Its not me this time, I posted mine as soon as the update was sent.

[Terenos]

Yes yes, you can blame me. I've been incredibly busy this week. Shouldn't be as much of a problem coming up though.

[RulerOfNothing]

Hmm. Can my hallucinogenic compound be applied to mundane missions?

[Terenos]

The more mundane missions dont have space for those rolls. It would add a rather large amount of rolling and you'd see only small gains. Gear is mostly for big missions/defending yourself.

[Toaster]

Does that include the more generic gear like laser rifles?

[Neyvn]

Ah we forgot to grab our trait...
