What are our options for conventional weapons and armor along with our current stock


We need to start building up caches and safe houses. And explosives. Many, many lbs of explosives.

We need a safe, clean and reliable cash source. Cash can get us everything else we need. Drugs are a difficult business. It's High Risk-High Reward. Either we are dealing or running protection and both will get us killed/caught.

We need to get involved with Industrial Sabotage

Big cities mean big corporations. And Big corporations mean money. We have the team to become a valuable and effective infiltration and sabotage team. We start small, breaking into a data-center. Break machines at a construction site etc. This will get us enough material to instigate a gangwar that decimates the local gangs. This is where we step in and snag up valuable territory, arms and goods. In turn we go to the biggest surviving gang and offer them employment. They become our dirty-work crew and second revenue stream.

Then by this point we should control a sizable empire with ground troops and provide a useful service to the local corporations. From there we can found a legitimate foundation for mutants funded by the revenue of our gang and corporate wet-work. This is the point where we start buying senators.

Really we need our members that can get dependent on drugs clean. It's a liability and compromises their effectiveness. Don't be too hard on her now, but tell her to be careful. She's our crew and we need her 100%. Anything like Headlight is gotta have some Nasty effects and is being made by some nastier people.

I will note that within your own possessions is some cocaine for the purpose of re-enacting the movie Crank if you need to.

Yes but our power directly interacts with the drug and its used to literally save our life. Headlight is an obvious ploy by the CIA to infiltrate the mutant community with a drug that increases aggression and dependence while also weakening the moral fabric of mutant society and turning the public against us.

It's okay that she tested it, but no way in hell should she ever use it again. Stick to something nice like caffeine or pot. Not some poo poo cooked up to be literal poison. Endurance wins mutant fights, not going out in a blaze. That's not what the Brotherhood stands for.

We don't want to be anywhere near here, but the Mutant Response Team is a sign of a big problem. Clearly they are the hired goons giving a legitimate face to whatever shadow organization is capturing and conducting tests on mutants, most likely the same ones that make that amplification drug and the same ones that had the mind wipe mutant. I don't think it's paranoid to assume that they are deeply entrenched with the government. The mutant registration gives them a literal menu of mutants to collect, dissect, brainwash and mobilize as weapons. This is our enemy and we need to start building a powerbase as well as a positive media campaign because when the MRT moves against The Brotherhood it's going to be false flags and smear campaigns on national cable news. Watch how this "mutant terrorist attack" plays out. Gotta make the mutant rights people sound like terrorist supporters.

We need to watch and record her take-out run. She may use this chance to do a debrief and if the Silence is with them then we will forget that she did anything other than order us food (which we need to make sure she isn't poisoning or whatever).

She's either lying or that drug is even worse than we imagine. Also looks like they mind wiped her pretty hard. My guess is either a sleeper agent, or the drug makes you really susceptible to suggestion and she's a sleeper agent.

We could neutralize her, find a mutant that can go inside her brain and try to reconstruct things, or we can play catch and release and see what she does.

Put her under house arrest. No phone. A room with only one guarded exit. Two man watch. Then reach out through the contacts to find a mutant doctor to study the drug and a psychic to probe around.

Time to bug out. Hopefully our phone has some text to speech function and we can use that to send a message to the others to bug out as well to the safe house. We go to our orphanage friend and coordinate from there after getting a new phone. Everyone switches to burners and we work on finding a psychic mutant.

Maybe shove her pretty hard in case she's a "recovery agent" and goes for the subtle taze.

I figure we carry a few on us at all times.

"Some druglord douche. She's all high on that crap. Caught her shaking Intercept down for some cash. We'll talk more when we're together. For now just let it go."

B Keep quiet about it and when we get all together we go into lockdown. Maybe look into using our gang connections to find a psychic. Maybe the boys know a mutant that knows some Santeria and makes it work too.

Well, those would probably seek us out. I can't really see them advertising that power very openly.

I figured the gang we're friendly with would know one, or at least would have a contact that does. You're right that telepathic mutants would be very secretive. Either we get in touch, or word that we want to get in touch gets out and the telepath contacts us. Either way, we need someway to check for moles.
