Re: Heads of Staff and Security: They're a fucking joke

I've noticed that the CMO has the best scrub to gud ratio, while the HoS has the worst. Contrast their relative equipment - Compared to MDs, the CMO has some more access (Chem,Gen,Viro), a hypospray, and a blue labcoat to mark his authority. Compared to Sec Officers, the HoS has the armory, an egun,...

I believe the justification for arming the HoP is because he is supposed to be second in command.
