One-time capital costs are dominated by outpost construction, equipment purchases, and optional off-world/lunar readiness; annual operating costs are driven by personnel, outpost operations, transport readiness, lunar-readiness retainers, and contingency/reserve funds.

Cost Scenarios
📊
Baseline
(baseline)
$25.3M/yr
Normal year with no major incidents; standard monitoring, outpost ops, personnel wages, and retained readiness contracts remain active.
no new coastline manifestations
stable colony activity
no major breaches or international incidents
🚨
Minor Incident
$30.3M/yr
Localized coastal manifestation or small unexpected colony expansion requiring targeted interdiction, additional captures, medical response and localized deception/PR.
new coastal manifestations within limited sector
small-scale containment breach requiring regional response
🚨
Major Breach
$75.3M/yr
Regional containment failure requiring a coordinated suppression campaign, large-scale evacuation/containment and international diplomatic/legal operations.
rapid radius growth into populated coastline
multiple simultaneous manifestations
need for regional suppression campaign
🚨
Catastrophic Breach
$1.0B/yr
Exponential uncontrolled manifestation (approaching RK/NK-class) requiring global remediation, possible off-world relocation and full mobilization of international resources.
radius exceeds critical threshold (~2645 km) leading to runaway manifestations
failure of suppression & evacuation measures
nation-scale detection & conflict

Confidence Notes
Many line items have wide ranges and escalation is highly non-linear (radius-growth dynamics). Core recurring costs (personnel, outpost ops, basic monitoring) are fairly well-specified, but contingency scenarios (suppression, lunar/off-world options) have high variance, so overall confidence is medium.
