You have an island
« on: June 09, 2013, 02:57:05 pm »

So, with a 50 million dollar government grant, and a good team of experts, you finally purchased an island. You are just off the Alaskan coast, the grey sea is cold, and snow falls eight months out of the year. The ground is frozen solid year round, but you have the resources to build. The island is approximately five miles by five miles, and mostly flat. So, what are you doing here?

This is a suggestion game. What are you doing here, why did the government give you money to start this place, and what are your first plans?

The government has given you a grant, to create a large research complex to further all kinds of science(COUGHCOUGHcloninglaserssuperweaponsCOUGHCOUGH)
The first order of business would be to get living quarters set up.

Research. Right.

With a team of 20 builders, you quickly get living quarters for up to 50 people built. They're only half full at the moment.

The next building is a small one, just enough space for a chair with restraints, a two way mirror, and a small observation area.

We need an overground facility, which is mainly supplies arrival, helipad/airport/port, guests and new recruits quarters (two separate things). And communication array and whatnot. Radar, that kind of things.

Underground we'll have barracks for security guards / all the security at level -1, the scientist quarters at -2, then the factories (making stuff for experiments) at -3, and starting at -4 the !!SCIENCE!! (the more dangerous the deeper, of course.)

Goal is to develop advanced weaponry based on recent scientific developments.

@Scelly9: feel free to dismiss what comes next if it doesnt fit your vision:
Year is 2021, the economic crisis is over, and the recovering nations are eyeing space. Private corporations are experimenting with asteroid mining, with little success and no economic viability so far. Tensions arise due to the lack of ressources, but global warming is somewhat averted. This station is not to look toward space, but have to prepare the next generation of weaponry for an eventual war (Which is highly unlikely, but as the saying goes, Ci Vis Pacem, Para Bellum. Who wants peace, prepares war.). Scientists and military analysts have free reins to determine what they will develop.
Human life is NOT expendable. Otherwise disregard ethics. Animal experiment is fine, GMing is fine, cloning animals is fine, not humans (not without debate).

It would be awesome to have a map of this facility, evil genius style.

Set up training rooms and barracks, and start purchasing/developing weapons.

We obviously need to start creating super-humans.  Let's get some genetic research and experimentation going.  We'll start on various animals, so we need it on a lower level to contain possible breakouts. 
Current Genetic Goal One:  Create more intelligent crocodiles that are resistant to cold?

Build a particle accelerator, because, 'ya know, you gotta have one in any *cough*evil*cough* scientist lab.

Maybe we should get things sorted from the start. Here are some fields we can concentrate on (If I missed some, add them). It would be better, IMO, to choose one and really concentrate on it.

-Tanks, helicopters, and other vehicles. Possible research fields: guns, guns, railguns, armor, electrical-pseudo-forcefields, guns, various detectors, AI assistants, guns.
-Mechas?
-Infantry. Extension of post-modern development. Fields: guns, aimbots, exoskeletons, auxiliary drones, HUD, power armor.Possibility of genetic enhancements.
-Robots. Essentially the same as infantry, but with more drones and a lot of AI work.
-GM warbeasts. 'Nuff said I suppose.

Alright. This is a bit silly. You currently have 20 builders, 5 administrators, and a building housing 50. What would you like to build first?
