Just putting this here so Ender won't have to do as much work. Hopefully I didn't fuck anything up.
I am voting for these options as well. Not getting the thermal hyperbore would be madness, and we really need to max out our android crew complement.
Frankly, turning the base into a fort seems a far better use than just pawning for tokens. I'd save up for Juggernauts, but the extra alloy supply is something we urgently need. Also, if we take control of Hector, we can make sure we never get into a situation where our fuel tanks run dry again.

I would rather be accused of intransigence than tolerating genocide for the sake of everyone getting along. - @Metzger Meister
I wanted a communication base really. But we do not have enough tokens for it to be worth it. Also, having our only espionage officer tied up on it seems a bit expensive. I consider it assets we grab later on. Cobra had four afterall. Nicking one or two from our next bunch of victims shouldn't be a problem.
Seoul. The South Korean government is in exile today as a fleet of private jets left the country by the capitals main airport. It all began two weeks ago when protesters condemning the government’s lack of action to alleged North Korean aggression in bordering provinces spilled over into full-fledged rioting.
More violent then any seen in the past decade, rioters displaying a mixture of fear and anger converged on government buildings throughout the capital city. Government employees, fearing for their safety abandoned their post and riot police were overwhelmed as protesters set fire to the headquarters of the nation’s Defence Ministry and Parliament buildings.
Despite the anger on display throughout the country, many observers in the international community are still at a loss to account for the riots. Following the surprise deaths of the nation’s minister of foreign relations, and the follow up death of the minister of defence, rumours have spread throughout the country of citizenry abductions from major cities – with the blame being placed on everything from North Korean covert operatives to aliens. The mysterious disappearance of South Korean military units from bases near the demilitarized zone only compounded the bizarre circumstances of the past few months.
With hundreds dead on both sides of the rioting and military forces either deserting their posts or otherwise barricading themselves in their bases, the exile of the principle government has effectively ended the reign of the Republic of Korea as a sovereign nation. The general state of anarchy now existing in the country can only serve to escalate the violence.
The United States, China and other key members of the UN security council have expressed strong concerns that the sudden collapse may be exploited by North Korea in unification. The United States government has issued strong warnings that despite events, any North Korean breach of the DMZ would be considered a general act of war against the United States, although privately rumours circulate that many US military units stationed along the border have been out of contact of friends and loved ones for many weeks now. The US state department however has blamed the communications difficulties on the recent solar storms which have disrupted satellite communications across the globe.
So far, our Espionage assets have been incredibly useful, I think another is the best use now that we have a break. Double the assassinations, double the fun. Plus we have 4 UFOs worth of personnel coming in next turn plus the train, we can spend the troops.
Today, we honor the memory of a brave officer, tragically cut down while pacifying the brutal and savage natives. Joseph was a fine officer, surgically gifted with a sharp wit and a genetically predisposed to possess an easy going manner. His ability to take a group of lobe clipped personnel and create a subversive cult in enemy territory will be forever missed.
I still remember the day he was first synthesized from a vat of personnel pulp. As the animator pulsed an officer template directly into his cortex, he looked directly into my viewing lens, and said "AIII, SKKRM." I don't know if it was the vast amount of electrical current searing his neurons into the proper memory formation or some artifact in the programming forcefully grafted onto his mind, but his words spoke to me. His dedication to securing ice cream for the collective impressed me and showed his loyalty ran even deeper than his spinal implants.
We'll metaphorically never be able to replace you Joe.
Captain, we have commenced the disintegration of Achilles Chemical Production Facility and the lobe clipping of all present native labourers. 8 alloys and 13 general personnel obtained. Engineering Officer Timothy Simmons installed.
10 general personnel have been reduced to command pulp for the synthesis of Diplomatic Officer Duke Curtis.
A template for the thermal hyper-bore has been decompressed and installed onto my primary partition. The KaT will now extract additional alloys each turn.
Abduction Disk Group King has returned to the KaT. 42 general personnel acquired. Tactical Officer Vladamir Carlyle installed.
20 crew have been assigned to Ryker Kincaid. She has been provided the templates for android crew members.
10 crew have been assigned to Candice Love. She has been provided the templates for android crew members.
Richter Gerhardt has been assigned commander of Serpent Compound. The compound will be reconfigured into a hardened defensive structure.
!!!ALERT!!!
The formerly unified nation state of South Korea has fractured into 3 significant militarized entities. These entities have been designated Badger Faction, Wolverine Faction and Wasp Faction. They are of neutral disposition to the KaT; our goal is to subvert or eliminate these factions to take total control over the peninsula.
The nation state known as the United States of America have declared open hostilities against us. We can expect the arrival of their naval forces in 5 turns.

The nation state known as the United States of America have declared open hostilities against us. We can expect the arrival of their naval forces in 5 turns.
We should save up for the Neural Co-Processors. Those will very useful for decompressing better templates. As well, I concur with ELM on personel policy. Namely, that we should use Androids for onboard tasks and use the organics for officer pulp. Incidentally, if we built 15 droids last turn, shouldn't there be 49 of the things, not 34? Also Osiris Mass Manufacturing Complex. How could that not be useful?

I am thinking another beast factory for when we get to the site, mostly because only one officer can make them. Once we figure out who the hostile South Koreans are we should be able to pull a pretty devastating alpha strike between our spys, disks and diplomats starting riots.
I wonder why the Russians are sending us airplanes. Defectors come to taste sweet freedom?
Have you fellas already forgotten about our promise to the prisoners? That we are to join them together in unity and allow them to sing out our desires in the shapes of psych-storms? Psychoformatter GO!
I've been doing some thinking, and I'm unsure about what we shall do to strike back at the murricans navy. Our tanks can't exactly swim. If Ender is following a real world scenario we might be facing a carrier group.
If so, we can assume they'll be projecting their force from a safe distance, dropping missiles on us like there were no tomorrow, and then following up with bombing runs. We can't do anything about missiles, but with some SAMs the airplanes are hopefully manageable. In this scenario, our only counter-measures would be cruise-missiles and helicopters. If we send enough missiles some of them might not get intercepted by the escorts, I'm pretty sure our helis would be dead after the first round though.
So, let's build some cruise missiles and SAM tanks?

You also have spaceships in orbit that you may be able to trade tokens with in exchange for orbital bombardment.
What Ender said. Also, in addition to the SAMs, cruise missiles, and orbital bombardments I'm really interested to see what a people-fueled flesh hungry psychostorm could do to a bunch of ships.

I'm interested in finding another chemical plant, myself. I want to see what effect metal-hungry lithovore bacteria would have on such targets. At the very least, it would force them out of position to decontaminate.

But we don't know how to contact our orbital death beam dispenser. Well we do, but someone wanted to build a fortress instead. I'm guessing we can't afford any death beams anyhow. Perhaps a truckload of icecream or something though. @rockrnger didn't know that, guess I'm gonna vote for even more SAMs over the next couple turns.
In the end though, I feel that we need to capture that carrier. So we can turn it into a giant surfboard so Orion can invade Tokyo. Because, let's face it what would Tokyo be without a gigantic monstrosity ravaging it?
@The Ender is there any way we can open actual diplomatic relations with the various South Korea factions, rather than faux-compacts? Work out trade deals, tech swaps, mutual defense pacts, etc?
Edit: Opted to open discussions with Wasp faction rather than Cult of Academia. Talking to people that hypothetically have their own navy is way more important than recruiting more crew.
I say we check out this Wolverine faction. After all, they are the best at what they do. And since what they do isn't very nice, I'd like it if they did it to the Americans.

Yes; just dispatch a diplomat to open a channel of communication with them.
Captain, we have arrived at Osirus Mass Manufacturing Complex.

Osirus Mass Manufacturing Complex
You are located at Osirus Mass Manufacturing Complex. You may:
- Disintegrate the factory for alloys and initiate lobe clipping of the present native labourers. You will need to remain stationary to complete recycling & lobe clipping operations, acquiring an Engineering Officer as well 2d6 General Personnel and 2d10 Alloys (Costs 6 Ingress Points)
- Reconfigure the factory as an autonomous friendly asset. Choose any of the following available templates:
Thunder-Class Infantry Fight Vehicle - 8x Produced every turn
Avalanche-Class Compact Tank - 4x Produced every turn
Morbid-Class Main Battle Tank - 2x Produced every turn
Brutal-Class Mobile SAM Launcher - 2x Produced every turn
Beast-Class Super Heavy Tank - 1x Produced every turn
The factory will automatically manufacture it's assigned template and supply them to the KaT. This costs the KaT no resources, but stationary facilities are vulnerable to attack and local supplies may run out. There will be a 1 in 10 chance each turn that Osirus will deplete all local resources & personnel, and thereafter cease to function. (Costs 20 Ingress Points)
- Mark Osirus Mass Manufacturing Complex as a valuable asset and immediately move to a new location of your choice. You will gain 4d20 Asset Tokens which may be traded with other KaT units or spent to make special requests from Kaiser Fleet. Osirus Mass Manufacturing Complex will be erased from your RADAR. (Costs No Ingress Points)

1 General Acquired.
100 personnel employed out of 100 available. (90 out of 104 if invalid choice)
I'm kind of assuming we can already use Loves perk and expanded crew management.
I am thinking 3 turns for our alpha strike on one of the Korean factions. We should be able to knock them out quick enough that we can focus on the Americans and maybe sic one of them on the other, depending on how the diplomacy works out.
Oh, Ender. I think you forgot to add the resources we got from the railway + airpad.
Doublecheck my math, but if I'm right we should have:
59 General Personnel
109 Alloys
113 Fuel
But as I said, I might have miscalculated it. I'm a bit distracted at the moment.
Edit: Oh also, you sure you want to pay 20 fuel to create 1 more android @rockrnger?

Free mammoth tanks please!
Asset tokens are easy to come by. It takes 4 turns for one of our engineering officers to build one of those tanks, though, as I recall- so this is pretty huge.
Also, we I think we should build some cruise missiles to welcome the Americans.

Cobra is gone but they live on in our hearts (you never forget your first).
I suppose the Americans are next. So lots of support, Abrams and strykers. Lets see what 60 years of a bloated military industrial complex can do.
Edit:didn't see new tech.
I am voting for these options as well. Not getting the thermal hyperbore would be madness, and we really need to max out our android crew complement.

Frankly, turning the base into a fort seems a far better use than just pawning for tokens. I'd save up for Juggernauts, but the extra alloy supply is something we urgently need. Also, if we take control of Hector, we can make sure we never get into a situation where our fuel tanks run dry again.
Com tower would be useful but as of now I haven't seen any sites I didn't want to do something with.

30 alloys, 5 fuel, 30 personnel expended.
30 Androids employed, 10 personnel employed.
15 androids, 1 Diplomat Officer, one Espionage Officer built.
2D20 Asset Token gained.
So far, our Espionage assets have been incredibly useful, I think another is the best use now that we have a break. Double the assassinations, double the fun. Plus we have 4 UFOs worth of personnel coming in next turn plus the train, we can spend the troops.
Today, we honor the memory of a brave officer, tragically cut down while pacifying the brutal and savage natives. Joseph was a fine officer, surgically gifted with a sharp wit and a genetically predisposed to possess an easy going manner. His ability to take a group of lobe clipped personnel and create a subversive cult in enemy territory will be forever missed.
I still remember the day he was first synthesized from a vat of personnel pulp. As the animator pulsed an officer template directly into his cortex, he looked directly into my viewing lens, and said "AIII, SKKRM." I don't know if it was the vast amount of electrical current searing his neurons into the proper memory formation or some artifact in the programming forcefully grafted onto his mind, but his words spoke to me. His dedication to securing ice cream for the collective impressed me and showed his loyalty ran even deeper than his spinal implants.
We'll metaphorically never be able to replace you Joe.
Every ballot counts, but this turn rockrnger's counts more.

We should save up for the Neural Co-Processors. Those will very useful for decompressing better templates. As well, I concur with ELM on personel policy. Namely, that we should use Androids for onboard tasks and use the organics for officer pulp. Incidentally, if we built 15 droids last turn, shouldn't there be 49 of the things, not 34? Also Osiris Mass Manufacturing Complex. How could that not be useful?

I am thinking another beast factory for when we get to the site, mostly because only one officer can make them. Once we figure out who the hostile South Koreans are we should be able to pull a pretty devastating alpha strike between our spys, disks and diplomats starting riots.
I wonder why the Russians are sending us airplanes. Defectors come to taste sweet freedom?

If so, we can assume they'll be projecting their force from a safe distance, dropping missiles on us like there were no tomorrow, and then following up with bombing runs. We can't do anything about missiles, but with some SAMs the airplanes are hopefully manageable. In this scenario, our only counter-measures would be cruise-missiles and helicopters. If we send enough missiles some of them might not get intercepted by the escorts, I'm pretty sure our helis would be dead after the first round though.
So, let's build some cruise missiles and SAM tanks?
You also have spaceships in orbit that you may be able to trade tokens with in exchange for orbital bombardment.
Just a thought. :P
What Ender said. Also, in addition to the SAMs, cruise missiles, and orbital bombardments I'm really interested to see what a people-fueled flesh hungry psychostorm could do to a bunch of ships.
Hard to tell if ours work that way.
@rockrnger didn't know that, guess I'm gonna vote for even more SAMs over the next couple turns.
In the end though, I feel that we need to capture that carrier. So we can turn it into a giant surfboard so Orion can invade Tokyo. Because, let's face it what would Tokyo be without a gigantic monstrosity ravaging it?

@The Ender is there any way we can open actual diplomatic relations with the various South Korea factions, rather than faux-compacts? Work out trade deals, tech swaps, mutual defense pacts, etc?
Edit: Opted to open discussions with Wasp faction rather than Cult of Academia. Talking to people that hypothetically have their own navy is way more important than recruiting more crew.
Unless the EVA program is active. Nothing is more dangerous than a 13 year old school girl in a 50 foot tall robot.

I say we check out this Wolverine faction. After all, they are the best at what they do. And since what they do isn't very nice, I'd like it if they did it to the Americans.
Yes; just dispatch a diplomat to open a channel of communication with them.
Missed this the first time around. Why don't you join us and play? The more the merrier.
Alright, I'll give it a shot. No promises that my math adds up though!

Wow,nice site.
I am thinking 3 turns for our alpha strike on one of the Korean factions. We should be able to knock them out quick enough that we can focus on the Americans and maybe sic one of them on the other, depending on how the diplomacy works out.
Edit:oops
On the other, 4d20 asset points.
Hmmm.
Doublecheck my math, but if I'm right we should have:
59 General Personnel
109 Alloys
113 Fuel
But as I said, I might have miscalculated it. I'm a bit distracted at the moment.
Edit: Oh also, you sure you want to pay 20 fuel to create 1 more android @rockrnger?
Asset tokens are easy to come by. It takes 4 turns for one of our engineering officers to build one of those tanks, though, as I recall- so this is pretty huge.
Also, we I think we should build some cruise missiles to welcome the Americans.
