Well, Sure I guess that sounds peachy keen.

Is there a training room for techs Mr. GMs? I would think so, but it is not on the list.

I think the laboratory would suffice?
I don't remember much from the game tough.. sadly..

[Criptfeind]

The lab only trains Scientists.

Ah, right.. nevermind my mistake. ^_^

[Terenos]

Thats right folks. And that Technician training location will be shortly in the 2nd post.
For now, its right here as well.
Workshop: 100 Resources, 1 Minion/Week to build.
Trains Regulars into Technicians. 1 Technician to Train 1 Regular, Takes 1 Week.

And, while inspired by Evil Genius, it is not that game. Its also inspired by a fair few other things. Bwhahahahahah! Be afraid.

[Criptfeind]

Can I split my tech guy? Since he gets two weeks per week?

Oh crap carp! The GM snapped! 

[Terenos]

You can Criptfiend. Such are the wonders of Technicians.

[Neyvn]

Can I buy some Designs???
Whats for offer again???

[Toaster]

Yes, I'll sell the design.

Ok.  Consider the $250 sent.

Workshop: 100 Resources, 1 Minion/Week to build.

How do we get a first tech?  Can we recruit them now, or do we need to "recruit" them like he did?

[Criptfeind]

Humm... I just realized that I can buy t1 minions for $400. That means that One would need to use the minion room 13 time to turn a profit, or many many more when you take into account the opportunity cost of the time needed, which looks to be anywhere from $100 to $250.

So you would need the use the room like somewhere like 21 or 22 times to make a profit off building it.

I am not saying the deal is off... But I will really have to consider not taking it as I think on this.

Edit: Hell, that is not taking into account the cost of a t0 minion. Which bumps the opportunity cost to 200 to 350.

Unless you will need t1 minions for the rest of the game, and the game is quite long... Well I am not sure if it is worth it.

Who says there isnt a Tier 2 level of minion? Or that this is all those rooms do? Sure, this is all they do right now.. Muah.
Technicians are still locked, so you'll have to kidnap them to steal their secrets. However as demonstrated by Cript, this is not a tricky task.

Mr Ping Lays temporarily demotes his 4 regulars to work the game floor, keep their ears open in the massage parlor too for any tips.

Then Ping Hires 3 thugs and one scientist

2 thugs go extort the shipping lanes, 2 thugs extort local businesses, scientist researches chemistry, with an emphasis on drugs.

"My minions results are sorely lacking, a new wave of fresh blood with know better than to wallow in mediocrity."

[Criptfeind]

Well, if there is a t2 minion, unless they take the same room to build:

If you say the average take per t1 minion per level is 175 (Which honestly, is really low, that is more realistic for a t0 minion) then you are looking at 41 uses of the room to make a profit.

If they reach a average of 301 profit per mission (which seems possible) then you are looking at losing money on using the room.

So can we trade training like we agreed to do if possible?
