You know wizgrot, I thought about doing something like that but didn't really think about it too much and got caught up with all the other plans and to be honest kind of forgot about it...but...having 3 actions per turn does sound nice....I'm gonna change my vote to that...

Remember folks, it'll be quicker and easier for us to do SR first, then do CE rather than the other way around. And getting SR out the way first means we can let the other hero do it and allow Brian to do something else.

- Dark Hand's got no rep, so we're just gonna trust the die roll, I guess. She's already the product of a 2 roll so chances are we can get someone marginally better

- We can get the supercomputer done faster

- I rather like being called the Council of Villains, to be quite honest

- Dark Hand could use a bit of action to beef her up. May as well see what the whole engagement thing is about.

- The Super Computer has a bit more straight-forward and immediately active benefit. While CE is important, doing the SR first will give us another tool to work with in the early run who can do research while Brian is able to work on the practical side of things.

- The Council of Villains is a pretty chill name to be honest. Brian doesn't strike me as the kind of guy to beat around the bush with acronyms.

Recruit Henchman:

Roll: 3 = 3 * 0.0 (0 renown spent) = 0 rounds up to = 1

Melissa gets to work recruiting yet another lackey for the cause. While she is much more invested in the cause, she is virtually unknown on the streets, and her best efforts turn up a whole lot of useless opportunists and inept has-beens. Still, by the end of it all she has two candidates that aren't completely useless. She says she isn't particularly looking forward to working with either of them though.  You can acquire one (1) of the following 2 candidates for your council.     

Spoiler: Lisa "HarvestMan" Kane (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Frank "Slippy" Alto (click to show/hide)

Please vote on which candidate you would like to add to the council.


Super Computer Research
The hardware has been acquired and assembled for the computer. A room in the basement has been designated for the facility, and the first few subjects have been analyzed. The Dagos homeless shelter has a few less visitors tonight.
Project time has decreased by one for the SR Project. 6 favors and 3 million $ have been spent.

*World events will be detailed during the second half of the Deployment phase, as well as updated analysis of resources.

Now, naturally I feel compelled to vote for Harvestman, since... I made her.

But at the same time, I do feel we need another Metahuman on our side, and a melee fighter is something we're lacking right now. But Slippy's "strange mutations" power seems like it could seriously screw us over, and his trait doesn't seem very good. However, we could design a project, maybe a piece of equipment or a permanent (or even temporary) serum that keeps his mutations in check, which could greatly benefit us. That would make him quite the cash hog, though, and I don't know whether we can afford that right now.

I want to hear more opinions before I cast my vote.

I say we get Harvestman; nothing like some chemistry to make a world of pain for a hero. And would make a few more... shadowy takedowns and the like a lot more easily due to being able to use "Russian Tea." :P

alright, so, a little bit of a tip, since I don't know if you guys have realized yet since you've been rolling kinda poorly anyway:
If you spend 0 renown on a recruitment action, the outcome is always a 1 every single time regardless of your roll. Similarly, if you spend 50 the roll result will be cut in half. So as is you could, for instance, roll a 6 on recruitment but get a choice between The Rat from last turn and "Shotgun Joe, the guy with a shotgun"

Slippy is a wildcard and we don’t know the potential mutations. However he’s got melee and we have nobody with that.

We to remember that we can’t just recruit another bloke because our headquarters will be full after this choice. We have to make this one count

I wish I realized about that renown thing earlier, I could have warned you guys before you spent half your turn and your third character slot on rolling a 1.

Harvestman is who I'm voting for, at least for now anyway...Also, next I say we have both of our new guys go on a bit of a rampage for renown so we can recruit someone much better next time, Harvestman against her old employers, and Dark hand on the government. Then, we have our good old Brian working on filling the vacant spots in the government caused by dark hand with people who are indebted to us, and maybe buying out the old company that Harvestman rampaged on.
