((I cannot crank out daily updates for this!))
Tip of the day: You can hire other players. They may join your organization for no initial fee, if they wish, although they retain standard pay. Scientists or engineers start as a low grade specialist of their choice, and will randomly rank-up until they eventually reach X-COM tier (Superior scientists is optional, and may be traded for a second specialization). Their costs go up with rank. Their costs vanish into the aether, and cannot be tracked or used. They receive a bonus to rolls for projects they lead. They may defect to another player, and try to take a mix of 1-3 completed techs, samples, and prototypes with them, depending on how much risk they're willing to take. Heroes must post or PM me their actions to receive their roll bonus. They may have their team research or build something the owning organization doesn't necessarily want them researching or building. The GM does not know how hero military units will work.
Global event! The economy is booming as people eagerly enjoy their kaiju-free lives. +5% income to every X-Company

Adwarf gets an elite infantry platoon, experts at urban combat.
The head of SINCOM submits its paper on kaiju genetics to a semi-prestigious scientific journal. Surprisingly, it even gets published. It establishes SINCOM as the leader in the field of alien study. There are several complains about the difficulty in reproducing the results, due to material scarcity. Several bored college students debate the name SINCOM.
Cheap Camera drone costs reassessed, dropped to 1 engineer month.
Kaiju preliminary genetic study shared with the world.
+100CR to Wwolin. Thank you, that copy-pastable sheet was nearly perfect, although you didn't have the living quarters change. (All platoons are assumed to have 50 people unless otherwise noted.)
+50CR to Furtuka, Hawk123, and Sarrak.
+25CR to Adwarf (didn't show individual upkeep cost changes)

Modern Earth tech, as of July 2014
Preliminary kaiju genetic study
200 CR: Small Workshop - Allows 25 engineers to work on small projects, up to the size of a small motorcycle.
350 CR: Large Workshop - Allows 25 engineers to work on projects as large as a medium-sized plane.
Workshops may initially be upgraded up to four times, for a dice bonus. Costs are 100, 200, 400, and 800 extra (1000 for a fully upgraded small workshop). This may be paid later, but work cannot be done inside a building during construction.
250 CR + 10/month: General Laboratory - Allows 25 scientists to work on any one project.
+100 CR: Specialized Laboratory - Provides a bonus to work in one field, with a severe penalty to unrelated fields.
Laboratories may initially be upgraded up to three times, for a dice bonus. Costs are 100, 200, and 400 extra. This may be paid later, but work cannot be done inside a building during construction.
100 CR: Hospital Ward - Allows up to 10 injured personnel to remain safely on-base. Doubles healing speed, and allows those with minor injures to continue light work.
50 CR: Living Quarters - Provides on-base living, recreation, and dining space for 100 personnel. Removes the morale penalty for commutes, required for bases in inhospitable locations.
100 CR: Small Airfield - Space for small aircraft to launch from or land on. Comes with a control tower.
+50 CR: Large Airfield - Allows larger aircraft to use the airfield.
+50 CR: Hangars - Provides maintenance and secure storage space for 3 fighter-sized aircraft or 1 bomber-sized aircraft. May be taken multiple times.
Free: General support personnel - Janitors, secretaries, and the like. Their budgets are included in the hiring costs for other employees.
Scientists
0~1/mo: Undergrad Students - They'll work for food and paperwork, and are better than empty space.
10~5/mo: General scientists - They're decent at most mundane fields, but don't leave them studying fusion unattended.
25~5/mo: Low-grade specialists - They are heavily specialized, and you might not get exactly the specialty you were hoping for.
50~10/mo: Specialists - These have a more broad focus, and research just as fast as lower grade specialists in their specialties.
150~25/mo: Superior Scientists - They are generally good at everything that's not too overly exotic.
500~100/mo: XCOM-tier scientists - Need a small team who can study a dimensional gate, reverse-engineer its access method, and design a manned inter-dimensional vehicle, all within two months?
Engineers
0~1/mo: Undergrad Students - They'll work for food and paperwork, and are better than empty space.
10~5/mo: General engineers - They're decent at most mundane tasks. Precision work is better done by specialists.
25~5/mo: Low-grade specialists - They are heavily specialized, and you might not get exactly the specialty you were hoping for.
50~10/mo: Specialists - These have a more broad focus, and build just as well as lower grade specialists in their specialties.
150~25/mo: Superior engineers - Their creations are generally superior.
500~100/mo: XCOM-tier engineers - Probably overkill.
Soldiers
20~10/mo: General infantry platoon(50)
50~25/mo: Special forces platoon(50)
If you want to hire better trained soldiers, spend more money for random results.
Pilots
4~1/mo: General Pilot. Able to fly or drive anything conventional with minimal practice.
If you want to hire better trained pilots, spend more money for random results.
Turn 3, September 2014. R&D And Military Deployment Phase Start.
Rule change: No more hiring your soldiers out to PMCs. That would quickly get annoying to track.
