Dr. Yueh's conditioning

SpoilerAll Books Spoilers

Imperial conditioning is supposed to make Suk doctors absolutely loyal and incapable of betraying their charges. And yet the simple kidnapping of a loved one is enough to break it.

For a long time I found that to be a narrative weakness, a bit of a lazy plot device to avoid having to provide more interesting reasons Yueh couldn't be suspected. Or at least require more interesting methods to break it than, you know, the oldest trick in the book. It strains credibility that in a multi-millennia society which has become intensely paranoid and devoted to cloak and dagger to resolve internal struggles, something so easily breakable had never been broken.

Am I missing something?

The modular APC chassis costs 240 points, the A-ATV 280.

The APC can transport a squad and has two weapon mounts (medium/heavy + light).

The A-ATV can't transport and can only mount a medium weapon.

Stats-wise the A-ATV only has meager trade-offs: less armor but slightly higher vision and concealment. No significant movement benefit that I could tell, and turning is still a b*tch without the Expert Pilot perk.

The question is, why would I pick an A-ATV for a second vehicle instead of a second APC?

I like the spunky little look of the A-ATV, but it's just a bad deal.

The whole is great, and how the final debriefing of sorts evaluates you across the board. That was quite satisfying and true to roleplaying. Something most simulated RPGs lack. It truly felt like your own story.

But the case itself... The culprit turns out to be someone you never meet until the very end, until you've basically ruled out the entire cast you've spent hours and hours interacting with. Turns out it was a random guy with a rifle, almost whimsically shooting people. And for his last murder, he only had a liiittle bit more motive to pull the trigger.

Feels off within the conventions of crime mystery and storytelling in general. The guy is not part of the story until he's practica
