(well, first off there wouldn't be all that much cash in the account. Second, that's an insurance policy to make sure that two people can't kill off everyone else and take the money for themselves. It isn't a perfect system, but it's better than nothing. That way, if half the team gets taken out, the others can still get to it.)

(sorry I've been a bit reticent with this thread. I'm back on it though. Right now I'm just waiting to finish the run w/ Xenomarch so that I'll know just how much capital I have to spend on this venture. We should be done pretty soon though. Once that happens, I'll get on him about the safehouse and the next run, if he wants to handle it.) Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll set up a room for the Peaches Party of Many Guildhall, be a day or 2.

Xenomarch has the following questions about the safehouse. The itallics notes are mine
# The district is up to you. (I'm thinking of downtown, but I don't know for sure) # Put a Nu¥en amount to Moderate Lifestyle. (how much we want to put to the lifestyle, basically) # Put a Nu¥en amount to Good Security System. (how much we want to pay for the security system.) # Put a Nu¥en amount to Pay Off. (for paying off the local gangs) # What security rating do you want to occupy? i.e. AAA, AA, A, B, C, D, E, Z # Purchase Legit or through nefarious means or through proxies.
Here are the answers I posit for the questions
1) Downtown 2) ¥10,000/mo. (mortgage payments and all that) 3) another ¥10,000 for a security system 4) about ¥1,000/mo. to pay off gangs. 5) B Security 6) Purchase through proxies or nefarious means--whichever would work best in our favor.
Overall, I think we should have about a 30,000-40,000 nuyen downpayment on the facility along with furnishing and other amenities, and then a 15,000 lifestyle fee per month to be paid out of the group account. The majority of this would be paid to the bank as mortgage payments on the property, but if we want to rent, I'm sure it would be less.
What do you think?

Here are my thoughts: 1) Downtown 2) 10,000 is actually a High Lifestyle, as I recall. Middle is 5,000/month. But since this should be all encompassing, High sounds like the better option. 3) 10,000 total, not per month. I think we'd also want to not have an actual security firm, rather devices. 4) 1,000 a month or less sounds about right. Then again, we could always just kick some butt and make them afraid of us... 5) The higher the security, the more scrutiny and attention we may attract. I'd opt for B or C. 6) Well, having purchased an HQ in the RL game I'm in, it only lasted about five runs before we had to abandon it entirely after it was compromised. Renting might be a better (and cheaper) option. 10K in security isn't a major loss compared to sinking 120K into a building + another 60 for security....

1-Yeah downtown seems ok..lots of places to go, and it's in the center of Seattle, so it's well placed
2-well, since we are 6 to pay, we can maybe bump it up to 12-15K a month
3-more cash than 10K, can't never be too cheap when it comes to security, and maybe get some security firm patrolling around the palce too, just to make it so we're got more than gizmos and cameras.
4-Well, this too, more is better than not enought..but not TOO much, or they'll turn greedy, 1500$, maybe get some ganger some nice clothes to make some nice "greeters"
5-B-C is good, A whould be better, but hey gonna do with waht you have
6-Renting is good, but it could leave traces IMO.

I've been talking to Xenomarch about the group lifestyle, and he says that if we want a warehouse or something like that with decent security, it's gonna be about 30,000 a month, which will take a large chunk out of our paycheck. We can do it, but it'll be hard. I'm just wondering if, knowing the cost, you all even want to still do it. I'm starting to lean in that direction, but I wanted to ask y'all first.

Is that buying or renting?

that's renting a warehouse in everett with basic security and few amenities. It also covers the cost of shell companies and all that drek. Renting a warehouse, evidently, is rather expensive...

Okay, so let's get a vote. Who wants to forget the group safehouse, and who wants to go on with the original plan?
My vote is for forgeting it all.

Same here...while having a central HQ for our team, it does bring some disadvantage in term of security, money, and on the legal side of things..maybe keping us a loose organisation for now is better..
when we'll have more cash and such, a central HJQ would be a good investment.
