On Miles: I have no judgement on him developing more tech, but him going out into the field this early in game seems to be OoC. He seems to have a power above all mentality, and that's endangered if his life is. I'd keep him locked up until later in the game, preferably when something/someone lures him personally out.

On Mendez: I'll have a post up this weekend. I just got busy right now. I'll have lots of downtime now.
