I support Xenobiology, so we can get some scientific interest in our corpses and offload them to Council nations.

+1.  Great first place to start.

It is crucial that we gain a thorough understanding of the alien physiology in order to develop weapons and tactics better suited to combating them.

Research project: Xenobiology started. Completion time: 18 days.

5 Sectoid Corpses removed from Storage. Remaining: 0.

Anything else?

Well, let's start on a uplink and two more satellites, lest we forget later.

So, Satellite Uplink at A2 and construction of 2 Satellites.

Perhaps we should start making Access Lifts to get to the steam at C2?

So for anyone observant, you'll note that the Satellite Uplink prerequisites are noted as 20 engineers. This is a typo, it's actually 10 engineers :v

Since the satellites take 4 days longer to build than the uplinks do, let's get busy making 2 of those in Engineering now. Since we don't control the clock, we can't just wait 4-5 days and hope we get an abduction or UFO mission by then. (Or can we, Solymr? Can we wait a defined number of days?)

This brings our current spending to $400 ($500 if we buy an Access Lift). We should have a mission or two within 8 days, giving us the money we need to buy that Uplink. We don't expressly need a 5th Interceptor at this time; 4 will be enough to shoot down the small UFOs we'll be dealing with at this point. Buying new ones only takes 3 days, anyway. It'll be our first priority to get a 5th one after our Uplink is under construction, though. And then we'll want a SHIV before the first Terror mission hits next month.

Trust me, with our luck, we're going to NEED that SHIV to provide heavy fire support and tanking. Floaters and Chryssalids are not fun to deal with together.

After everything is handled in the base, you can scan for activity, which will advance time until the next day, and give you a list of any events that happened during the day.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Yeah the minimum time you can wait is one day.

You can post "scan for x days" and if nothing of interest happens I'll skip that amount if you don't want to do anything useful during those days.

So get on with those orders, Commander(s) :v

Let's start with the satelites and scan.
