manipulate the Darius virus to increase the hunger of infected even further
observe the lab rats, see if any mutations happen
put out a job description for a lab assistant
[1 (virus)reroll: 6]You double how intense the hunger of infected is. Intensity(hunger): 32(they must eat at least every 45 min)
The rats do not start eating each other, yet, and have gain no new mutations.
You put out the description and 19 people are interested.
“Let’s find a fox” Buy some meat from a butcher and search for a fox. If found, try feeding it some meat so the mayor can touch it without getting hurt
[3]The mayor pays for the meat(you might want to get some funds), tho you have no luck in finding a fox.
Visit the proper psychic education courses
[2]You fail to find the proper psychic education courses. Maybe you are not meant to become a psychic.
Go check on the repairs and see how there doing, then go back to my lab and bring all the equipment to the hospital, then sell the lab or stop paying rent on it if I don't own it, also see how the werewolves feel about their current situation.
[4]The repairs finished with no hassles. You bring back all the equipment from you lab, considering your lab was an lease you cancel the lease. The werewolves are ok with their current situation, they know nothing else. The second werewolf becomes large.
Let’s resume research into more improvements to SSDs and RAM.
Additionally, does Thoth have any insights into other, non-computer-related sciences? Let’s say material science and chemistry, can they come up with any new materials and chemicals with interesting and useful properties? Materials that somehow affect psionic ability and powers may be worth investigating, if any leads show up on that.
[
7 (precog reroll irreverent)]You make significant progress on your research into improved SSDs and RAM(+107 progress).
Thoth has little insight into non-computer-related sciences(ever since its issues with psychics it has put most of its processors to figure out psychics and has gotten nowhere).
Lets start scaling the rollout up a bit. Take a few of the best and brightest telepaths and telekinetics from the previous classes, and recruit them as teachers. More teachers means more class capacity, and more capacity means faster training, both due to the number of students and less of the teacher's focus being split, which allows them to either focus on prodigal students, or help those that are falling behind get the basics down.
[6 (psychics)reroll: 2 (precog reroll irrelevant)] You decide to have the 13 telepaths/telekinetics become teachers, each can teach 10 students effectively(130 psychics trained every 2 turns from teachers). Of course their pay comes from you(-39 credits/turn)
Protein-X 2.0 Users: 72(1 rejecting(turning next turn)[{previous 15 eliminated by the military})
Thoth AIs: 2(includes Thoth)

Also I have Discord for my games now(not necessary to play, tho might be easier to contact me):
https://discord.gg/DuaARAZ I realize that there is already a channel for this game on the General server so we can stay there if you prefer.
As always inform me of any errors and have fun.
