I think all you really need are work clothes, pretty easy to make.

Alternatively, I *think* a suit works equally well as they're worn by the managers. Suits are pretty good all-around disguises, with only a few sites not liking them.

Note that the third factory, Garment Makers, has their workers work naked (at least until certain laws rights are Elite Liberal, at which point I think they have work clothes). Work clothes are, therefore, a bad disguise there. Try to impersonate a security guard or just go in naked and try to blend in!

You can never go wrong with a security uniform (mostly)

I always preferred suits, but yeah, security uniform is good as well. You'll get to both media statios, garment makers and the corp HQ. And... both labs, I think? And nuclear plant.

Police Body Armor is Yellow-Rated for most sites (After all, no one wants to question a cop even if they're out of place.), including these, and will be sufficent once you have a high enough Disguise skill. Plus, body armor!

Actually, that give me an idea.

Suggestion: Death Squad Armor should be Green-Rated for most sites while the DS still exists, due to the terror instilled by the presence of the DS. It should also allow for a bonus to Bluff checks, for the same reason.

Disguise-specific bluff messages would be neat!

I think I'll make these bluff messages happen ASAP. More messages! At least suit types that indicate a very particular type of person, like security, should have a special bluff message.

Security: "Patrolling aisle sixty-nine, nothing out of ordinary here."
DS: "[Hamburgers]! Nothing to shoot at here."
Toga: "Ego Senator, adiuva me!"
Lab coat: "My abacus! I'm not leaving without my abacus!" (alternatively a more serious one, "I'm a doctor, where are the injured?")
Fireman: "No fire here, it seems." / "The building is on fire - leave immediately and let us handle this."
Naked: "...this is PERFORMANCE ART!"

Disguise has some advantages over stealth. For example, if against all odds you get spotted with high stealth and a Ninja Suit, you're going to get shot to all hell. If against all odds you get spotted with high disguise and LCS/Police/SWAT/Army/Heavy Body Armor, you're going to get shot all to hell and be covered in bulletproof material as it happens.

Disguise has 2 advantages over stealth: Disguise enable to sneak more person inside (try sneaking 6 persons in an appartment), and is based on Charisma (that means if you have low Agility but high Charisma, you can still sneak around, and high end seducers are also good at disguise). But the best is to have the two: if you fail sneaking where you are wearing a valid disguise, you get another try.

(Not has anything to do with the subject: PS: I'm having some problems with the forum: When I type messages long enough (more than 1 line), I eventually type outside of the screen. Does anybody know why that happens? http://www.mediafire.com/?nled8ur3gh29g2q )

It's a common problem associated with the recent forum software update. For me, just F5 (update page) worked, at least for now.


In any case, disguise has advantages compared to ninja suit sneaking:
* ninja suit sneaking gives you a roll (stealth with a bonus). Disguise gives you two (disguise and stealth). If you fail either, you still have a fallback plan.
* sneaking after the alarm is hard - bluffing your way out is, for experienced Liberals, fairly easy
