List of Strategies

Department Icon Name Set up Cost Effects Description
5% 100%
Finances [[File:]] Fundraising Campaign 49 500
  • Takes 5% Reputation gains
  • Yields 7.1 Funds for each 1 unit of Reputation
We can likely raise some money by exploiting the attention that we get out of new successful ventures to remind the well-to-do Kerbals out there that we could use their support, and the contents of their wallets. This is probably going to be seen as a bit cheeky of us, so be prepared to face some backlash from the public.
[[File:]] Patents Licensing 263 2700
  • Takes 5% Science gains
  • Yields 8.1 Funds for each 1 unit of Science
Our science data can be worth a lot of money by selling licenses for other organizations to use our patents. The added book-keeping required will probably add some extra work for the R&D team, but the financial benefits could be worth their reduced output.
Science [[File:]] Unpaid Research Program 288
  • Takes 5% Reputation gains
  • Yields 1 Science for each 1.65 Reputation
A program where undergrad researchers are given the opportunity to work in our great Space Program, to boost the science earned out of each mit of data. The Interns don't get paid, but the prestige of working with such a grand organization as ours surely is its own reward, isn't it?
[[File:]] Outsourced R&D 16243
  • Takes 5% Fund Income
  • Yields 1 Science for each 35.557 Funds
Why do all the data-crunching ourselves when we can contract external research labs to help us process the data we receive. These services aren't exactly cheap, but their R&D facilities are very impressive.
Public Relations [[File:]] Appreciation Campaign 15600
  • Takes 5% Funds Income
  • Yields 1 Reptation for each 23.706 Funds
We could definitely improve our image by putting some effort into reminding Kerbals everywhere of just how great the Space Program is. Advertisement space isn't free, however.
[[File:]] Open-Source Tech Program 195
  • Takes 5% Science gains
  • Yields 1.115 Reputation for each 1 unit of Science
Even though we went through great lengths to get our scientific data, making it available for free to all of Kerbalkind can only be seen as a good thing. R&D will probably not be at its peak efficiency however, with all the noise these outside opinions tend to generate.
Operations [[File:]] Aggressive Negotiations 109
  • -6.75% Funds off on Launch Costs and R&D Purchases
  • -27.0 Reputation on each discount
We can get better deals with our suppliers by taking up a more... assertive stance on our negotiations with them. They probably won't see this as a friendly move, but we can definately have it our way if we press them. It's not as if we care what others think, do we?
[[File:]] Recovery Transponder Fitting 20250
  • +9.8% Funds to Launch Costs
  • +5.5% to Vessel Recovery Factor
