>>6263883Transport Vertibird is 100,000 Caps, takes 4 months to construct and deliver. Upkeep is 2,000 caps/month.
The NCR has banned the Shi from exporting Vertibird gunships, but they get around it by exporting a gunship variant, and then the weaponry separately.
That would be 250,000 caps, 6 months and the upkeep is 5,000 a turn. (Will put this on pastebin)
Yes-Man: Great questions! I have 71% probability that Allgood will win the election due to the backing of Ranger Chief Hanlon.
Allgood Murphy is the current mayor of Boneyard, an incredibly important city and state for the NCR and home of many influential organizations such as the Followers of the Apocalypse. It’s perhaps this breeding ground that Allgood gets his particularly idealistic leanings.
Allgood thinks the NCR is far from the beacon in the wastes that it should be, they they’re squandering their power and wealth on wasteful military adventures that cost them much more than they gain. Instead, Allgood wants massive infrastructure projects, health initiatives, further investment into research and more peaceful diplomatic missions across the wastes. His motto is, “All will be Good in the Republic”, seeking inner improvement before outer expansion.
But don’t confuse him for a peace dove! He believes the NCR is incompatible with the Legion and there can only be complete destruction of one or the other. He has constantly called for a massive expansion of the Air Force to take advantage of the tech imbalance with the Legion. That’s his biggest weakness in the eyes of the public, based on pundits of course. That’s why Ranger Chief Hanlon’s endorsement has turned this election on its head.
Chief Hanlon isn’t isolationist, but he advocates for more limited and measures interventions and expansions by smaller, skilled units that have a more delicate touch as opposed to the Infantry army of the current NCR. His domestic policies aren’t much different from Kimball’s, though his proposed military funding isn’t as bloated. His views on the Legion war is similar to the other two main candidates, that there can be no peace or mercy with Caesar, though Hanlon has repeatedly called on efforts for decapitation strikes instead of attempting to move deep into Arizona. Based on my observations, the populace’s favorable for Hanlon with the military is in the high 70’s, but many domestic policies of his are ranked low, even lower than Kimball. The one domestic policy point he has is water conservation and policing of the NCR’s many empty highways and travel paths, which he’s always said should be the NCR army’s primary responsibility.
