Workshop:
>Reverse Engineer Sniper wreck I [30 ENG, 1 sniper wreck, 500k, 5 days] I think our sharpshooters will love this project, commander. we can 'Mark' enemies with the tagger once this is project is over.

>Arm Skyranger [10 Engi, 200k, 5 LMG, 2 Rocket launcher, 3 days] i think i can rig the skyranger, commander. It is not an ideal answer but it is better than leaving big sky defenseless. Plus, our boys can use some help from the skies if things got too rough


___________


>U.A.R Chip [500k, 10 ENG, 1 turret wreck]: for better targeting and/or automated Shiv/Raven/Skyranger

>New Aircraft? [1 MIL, 20 ENG, 1 week 200 Plane parts] Our boys can do wonders, commander. Bring us more plane parts and we will glue it together. Not as sufficient as our Ravens or our Skyrangers but i will do.

>Anti-Disruptor goggles [5 ENG, 1 Disruptor wreck, 100k] Now we can see through these fuckers.

>Disruptor suit [10 ENG, 5 Disruptor wreck, 50 Alloy, 750k] Although this suit provides poor defense, it will highly confuse Alien and Advent forces once activated making them miss the target.

_________


>Build P.S.I Isthmus [100 ENG, 100 MIL, 3 Months] "I don't like this, commander. What differentiate US from them? It is all the same...."

>Build gene labs [1.5 MIL, 30 ENG, 1 week] I don't like tampering with our soldiers commander but we can build this facility designated with toying with god's creation.

_______

Mechs

>Build processing unit [ Damaged one +50 Alloy Or 150 Alloy, 10 ENG, 500k]

>Build S.H.I.V [Processing unit/Field Engineer to control, 50 Ad. weapon fragment, 100k, 15 ENG, 2 days, 200 Alloy] Our very first field tank in the field how about that?

>Build Smoke drone [Processing unit/field Eng to control, 5 smoke grenade, 5 ENG, 100 Alloy, 100 k, 1 day] this little bugger will keep our soldier concealed but it is too fragile for basically anything.

>Recon Drone [Processing unit/Field Eng, 50k, 5 ENG, 50 alloy 2 days] Like the Smoke drone, better to lose it than a soldier

_____

Shouldn't Nadia have a modded LMG?
What's the difference between the Hand and Scatter grenades?

Research:


>Project P.S.I [100 SCI, 100 MIL, 3 Month] I believe we can use our subject here as a live weapon. We can focus her psionic energy on our enemies in the field, the potentials are endless.

>Stun Captain Autopsy I [ 20 SCI, 1 MIL, 1 Stun captain corpses, 1 week] A magnificent example of the combination of Flesh and Metal, commander. This might open a non lethal route for our soldiers. I am sure we will find more advance on the long run with this specfic specimen

>Stun Lancer Autopsy [ 20 SCI, 500K, 2 Stun Lancer corpses, 6 days] So far, they aren't different from our advent soldiers we have encounter. However, rush something to consider. Perhaps, i can make some combat stimulant serum at the end of this research.

>Ad. Stun captain armour I [20 sci, 20 Eng,1 stun captain armour, 1 mil, 1 week] Commander, I think we can make a similar suit similar to this one which will electrocute any hostile alien force within proximity

>Sectoid autopsy [30 SCI, 2 sectoid corpses, 1 mil, 1 week] Enhanced with our DNA, this Alien is a force to be reckoned with. With our previous researches on the PSI shield, i believe we can include mind control to it after this research

>Gulper Autopsy [40 SCI, 3 Gulper corpses, 1 Mil, 1 week] What a horrible creation, these 'Gulper' rely on stealth and their devastating stomach acid to dispose of our soldiers. I don't envy our soldier facing this abomination, I think i can make something offense out of this digestive juices.

>ELR-GEN II , [10 ELR-GEN power source 3 sci, 3 mil, 2 weeks] Now we can focus on the original us of it. We can implement it into our generator, increasing productivity by 300%

>Alien Materials [Requires 10 Sci,10 Eng 100 Alien/Advent weapon fragment, 100 Alloy, 100 Elirium, 1 Mil, 2 weeks] Our understandings of these alien materials were lost twenty years ago, to fully uncover their potential, we need to thoroughly research them, commander.

>Advent PSI Captain Autopsy II [30 SCI, 3 PSI Corpses,1.5 Mil, 6 days] There are more secrets to be uncovered with this specimen commander. We must win this race at any costs.

>Advent Shield [20 Sci, 20 ENG, 20 Shield Shard, 1 MIL, 1 week] Commander, While we can't make shields of our own, we can incorporate these shards into our scatter grenades. they will prove to be deadly to both light and heavy armored troops

>Advent Armour II [Requires 20 SCI, 20 Damaged Advent armour, 20 ENG, 3 MIL, 2 Weeks] Commander, Our breakthrough can be ever better with Moddable Armour. This opens a new route for protecting our soldiers

>Project MELD [1000 MELD, 100 SCI, 100 ENG, 10 MIL, 3 weeks] With the recent autopsy of the grunt soldier, We discover that they have been heavily altered with MELD. Should we finish this project, we can genetically modify our soldiers.

>Inject Soliders with Z0-1 Serum? (10k+ per soldier)
>Psi shield? [80k per soldier, negate panic attacks, equip-able]
>Implant Main Neural chip (500k per soldier)
>Implant Secondary Neural chip (50k per soldier)

So that means they can't destroy cover and are less effective against machines?

>>44790881
alright.
>>44790881
>>44790881
yes

>>44790845
>Ask for advice from all heads
We need to consider response to the Advent closing in. New tech to hide us, or get the USS Aegis ready; which do they recommend.

>>44790910
I agree with that, now might be the best to lay low and work on improving the project

>>44790910
there was a couple of opinions in regards to this issue.

Robert suggested constructing Dud bases all over Brazil while Robin suggested heading for the Aegis

Ishmael wanted to cloak our base somehow. Le Blanc and Bradford remained undecided. They were looking to your decision

>Duds
>Aegis
>Pursuing new cloak tech
>other

>>44790982
How much will Dud Bases cost?

Does Ishmael have a suggestion (selectable) for the cloaking tech project?

>>44790982
The Aegis would be easier to track down as it is right now, better build some bases on the borders and work of cloaking tech to place on the ship 1st then on the base

>>44791011
>>44791011
1 Mil/base

we have to reserve engineer it first from the ayys then we will have to research a big project like M.E.L.D or P.S.I first

>>44791011
There is the potential for the cloaking tech to trickle down to personal cloaking fields and something for the Skyranger and SHIV's.

>>44790982
Does repairing the Aegid make it mobile, or does it stay immobile in the ice?
Wasn't one of the disadvantages of that choice that it would be easy for Advent to find?

>>44791064
>reserve engineer it first from the ayys
Reserve engineers from the aliens?
What?
Are you saying we should do a big project first?

>>44791073
In its current state, it is immobile, After preparing the base. we should be able to repair it.
>>44791100
for example

Research Gulper Autopsy I (since they can cloak) then II and finally the project for cloaking the whole base

>>44791100
gotta have to find a cloaking device and study it before making our own prototype or something.
shit would certainly require a lot of power to sustain so an Elerium generator would have to be build then it starts going downhill from there.

>>44791137
also this

>>44791131
I was noting that you typed "reserve engineer from", not "reverse engineer".
Again, a typo which caused initial confusion. At least it wasn't on something critical.

>>44791183
oh.

sorry anon. I will look into my posts twice before posting

relocating and cloaking is long term solutions

duds are short term solutions.

what will it be?

Doing some rough estimates, the dummy base is probably the better option for right now.
Aegis
>5 MIL, can't do research or workshop projects for 1 month
We also lack the required number of engineers and scientists for this, so we need to get more first.
Cloak
>est. 5MIL and 5 weeks

I'd have to go for the long term, with a smattering of short term. Maybe pop up a couple dud bases in our other areas of influence as well.

>>44791251
How long will a Dud Base take to build? Maybe we can wait longer before starting to build one?

But costs and requirements considered, I think we need to go with Dud Bases first.

for cloaking we need:

Gulper autopsy 1----> Bile nades
Gulper autopsy 2-----> Ghost Suits/Ghost modules for Mech

THEN
the large big cloaking project

>>44791319
1 week

>>44791292
Of course we're going to do long term.
The relevant question we are being asked right now to answer is whether to put our resources into one of the long term projects RIGHT NOW, or put money to the decoys RIGHT NOW.

Answer the question, not talk about what we're going to do already.

>>44791349
Okay, a Dud Base is:
1MIL, 1 Week
How many engineers? Or do we get away with contractors and local labor?

>>44791366
>>44791366
since Brazil is the hardest base to be detected, Advent will search every continent first, SA will be last to be scanned, we are in the danger zone once we reach 70-90%.

We will have a base defense mission should the ayys attacks

>>44791406
probably local labor/contractors; we want to stay as hidden as possible.

About the old XCOM base, is it under surveillance in case something like that happens?
Or could we slowly have it brought back in working condition should we decide to build a 3rd base?

>>44791447
old XCOM base?

you mean the base from 20 years ago?

>>44791411
So do the Dud Bases reduce the percentage of Advent's awareness, or does it just slow it down?
Are they built in Brazil, or are they built in other nations, potentially to take attention away from XCOM cells there?

>>44791488
I guess it will reduce the attention,yes.

You can build them wherever you want. However, the cells might be wiped out with the dud base.

>>44791531
So the Dud Base should be built in a nation without a cell.

Will cells be caught up by Advent scans, or will they be able to escape detection as long as we don't have them running operations until after the scan is done?

Since Australia just got scanned, it seems like a good place to set up a contact.

>>44791570
a matter of luck, it can go either ways anon

>>44791570
Make a dude base in Nigeria and start a nigerian prince scam to fuck with Advent

>>44791682
>>44791682
>>44791570
soo dud base in Nigeria?

>>44791694
Eh, sure. It doesnt have a cell there and it will get scanned before South America.

>>44791733
alright.

"There are a lot of things of intrest in the grey market, commander. Intel, Weapons, Alien artifacts...you name it. We can either steal money from advent or sell items in the grey market. Other than that, I see no way in acquiring money ; establish a business of sorts is potentially dangerous , it can lead to us by one way or another. Engineers and Scientists can be only rescued from Advent facilities. commander. "

If we can take more than 1 at a time
>Organized team work courses [1 Mil]

>>44792214
Do we have to assign specific soldiers to each course, and what's the length of the course where the chosen soldiers have to stay in school?

>>44792316
>>44792343
How courses works:

-we pay for a certain course
-Every soldier will attend such courses when they are not on missions.
-FO training will allow us to convert 1 ROK to a FO
-All of them can be taken at the same time if we want.

The whole process is mostly automatic to make things simpler.

so shall we spend 4 MIL on them?

>>44792284
>>44792284
yep.

What a disappointment.

>>44792390
>so shall we spend 4 MIL on them?
No. Replace the Ro-FO course to CQC.

>>44792390
It'll hurt our wallet but it'll bring them us better result

>>44792478
You really want to spend 1MIL to change 1 Rookie to 1 Field Operative?
We have other Field Operatives right now; we're not at 0 Field Operatives right now.

>>44792567
it is one time pay tho

>>44792538
Wait, which courses did we buy?

>>44792582
Yeah but it's not likely to use it now compared to CQC which we will use immediately.

>>44792607
>>44792316
>>44792471

>>44792214
Increasing soldier effectiveness is worth all the money there is. No investment is better than this.

>CQC courses [1 Mil]

>Advanced cover techniques [1 Mil]

That's a good start. It's really the biggest upgrade we had since the beginning. Worth every cent.

>>44792706
so should i add target prioritization as well? this will be 5 Mil, we will gain 4 Mil from the council this month

>>44792752
Yes.

>>44792752
Yes. Money is means to an end, not a goal in itself.

"Commander, the council sent us another transmission...."

"Hello commander, we are pleased with your current efforts against the alien forces. We are looking forward for more accomplishments in the future.

We will be in touch, Commander."

>>44792786
alright
>>44792538

>>44792752
So uh, could we propose our own mission, rather than wait for opportunities? What about planning a hit on an advent bank? Hacking their bank records to untraceable 1,000 accounts in 300 loops around the world sorta thing. Maybe learn a bit more on where their money goes as well and what they were funding.

>>44792849
Or hitting a certain gold cargo train on the move.

>>44792847
still waiting

What's the purpose of the 30 rookies in Egypt, rather than 5?

>>44793139
>Workshop Project
Reverse Engineer Sniper Turret Wreck

>>44793230
nothing. Anons didn't want them to come to our base because some thought they might be suspicious as there is no way to scan whether anyone can be mind controlled/spy/faceless

Wait for new opportunities.

>>44793319
So you want to save money by not starting a Workshop Project?
A valid choice, but I'm concerned that it keeps us back from developing more technologies, especially one that says it can help our Snipers.

The boys at the workshop took care of GOLIATH, Robin stroke a Kill count on its back. So far, This beast scored six kills. It was eyeing the new squadmates with silent curiosity.

The Hacker holed himself up in the middle of nowhere in Pakistan. You had no idea how he managed to live in such a desolate place. From the briefing, you found out that this place was once used by an old long dead terrorist organization.

It wasn't much inside this cave, two small shacks and a small battered car with lots of junk littered in the cave. There were no apparent defensive measures in the area. Look like your target was taking a nap.

You approached carefully, your finger was itching for a fight.

"S-sorry, Corporal." she backed away allowing other squaddies to grab him

"Hello commander, we have an urgent mission for you. We believe that the upcoming anti-XCOM movie is filled with subliminal messages. It pains us to say that destroying the set is not enough.

If a movie has subliminal messages, we need to destroy the film and the data backups of the movie.

Search for the data, get a network tap into the movie set's on-site network, get a copy of the movie and then destroy it and their backups from their network.

>>44796278
>The press was semi justifiable
Sure thing bro.

>>44796278
hm, i like this approach: >>44796327
but if on top of that we could destroy the set and kill the director, that'd probably be an even bigger hit

>>44796327
That I suppose, and destroy the set. Killing all of them is out of the quest, killing just 1-2 won't make any dent, destroying the set would work better since you're destroying their budget.

>>44796393
A bigger hit to who?
Advent? Or XCOM, who would see their public image eroded even further?

Something about this op doesn't seem right. We can always assassinate the director later; we can't un-kill him if this turns out to be a case of bad intel/Advent baiting us into killing XCOM sympathizers/innocent civilians.

>>44796002
Did us trying to have the Japan cell find targets for us cause them to be exposed? Or was Advent just scanning Japan at the time?

>>44796464
you're right, this could put us in an even worse light.

we can roll with this.

Our sniper have three places to nest into, so choose carefully, Regular grunts and a Disruptor guards the studio. None is there since we are sneaking under the cover of night. The walls can be climbed over, The lighter the soldier, the better. the red dot is our target.

There is some left over trash and others at the back of the studio, highly flammable.

North East building looks like it has the best line of sight to the target.
So have him set up there, the others will stick to the edge of the map and go east then south, then move west past the edge of the field and the wall, then move north up into the field, and set up right behind the target.
If they're quiet, we might be able to get over the wall, protected from LOS by the buildings, and get to the back of the target without Advent realizing.
