The research director, like all heads of staff, make extremely dangerous traitors just by virtue of their access and departmental loyalty. You have so many ways to screw the station over: bombs, guns, possible chemistry access, the power to make EVERY POSSIBLE AI UPLOAD BOARD, comms boards, bags of holding (and thus [[singularity|singulo]]s, extra tracking beacons, mechs, an excuse to emag borgs... you can tear the station apart and make them stay on it. While your underlings are less likely to fall in line than [[security]] or a horde of clowns ordered to create chaos, a majority of the time they'll let you get away with truly wicked deeds just for the sake of SCIENCE!

R&D becomes your personal armoury. With an [[cryptographic sequencer|emag]] you can override the firing pin on the guns you make and use them anywhere you please. A Bag of Holding is so big it can even hold shotguns and ion rifles. Technological shells can be used to produce some very special shotgun shells. If you go through the effort to build telescience equipment, you can teleport anything you want from and to anywhere you want. Don't forget illegal modules for cyborgs, which unlocks their locked module (laser for Secborg, pacid for medborg, diamond drill for minerborg, etc.) at the cost of damaging their interface, making it seem like they're emagged. You can also make the clusterbang launcher, for mechs, and the T.Y.R.A.N.T. module for AIs, with that illegal tech you got. Finally, with a portable chem dispenser, bluespace beakers and large grenade casings, you can have a wider range of grenades than Team Fortress Classic.
