That or reputation, we can possibly hash out a hard number if need be/we have the ability to.

We can do better then just a random murderhobo on the street...

Recruit Ex Sniper
Brian Matter will use some of his influence in the nation to try and find a suitable candidate from the military who is disgruntled with their current life enough to be able to be used in our service. Naturally, someone like this would be effective in what Brian lacks, combat experience and training. At least, that's the idea anyway, as why wouldn't a soldier have such? At the very least they would have more then a random man on the street...
How much renown would this be using, though?

It's really easy to get into Coc; trust me, all you need is one taste of Coc and you'll be begging for more! I wasn't even sure I would like Coc until after I got a taste, and now I'm all about Coc!

Y'know, there should really be a better abbreviation for Call of Cthulhu.

No clue, maybe 50, or 100. Renown seems like the kind of thing that shouldn't be too hard to get with a few actions. Besides, we can always just have our new sniper friend kill someone important, maybe a rival business owner, and regain the renown spent.

I'm just saying, maybe we shouldn't use all that much. We only have 100 and every 100 reputation or renown only adds a 1.0 roll modifier.

A tentative to a +1 to recruiting a ranged combat specialist, but we'll want one that's comfortable up close in regards to training (AKA not a sniper.)

guys, please use a votebox, and specify how much renown you're voting to use as well as what stat emphasis, if any, you're choosing for your suggestion. Recruitment is different from research, I believe.

+1 to recruit generic henchman, i think specializing this early could be a mistake we just need someone to drum up money and renown for the time being. And saving that renown for a better recruitment down the line would certainly not be a bad idea why recruit a sniper when we could recruit a super soldier gone rouge in a couple turns
