All very good ideas, making a PR including a cyanide pill (20 points), a Lawyer/Bodyguard distress beacon (50 points each) and the W-Y Coffee mug (1 point)
I don’t really want to add the option for a Mod 88 or a VP. Might put it on the contraband section if people really want.
Any other suggestions? I liked the cyanide pill option alot.

Well, you can already print money, so having a money option but even more seems redundant, considering money is rarely used too…

I honestly don’t know how effective cyanide is in CM. Is that the most effective and fast option? Could you consider reducing it to 10 points instead? So odds are it would be available in emergencies.
Here’s the PR.
I’ll probably reduce the cyanide pill points.

# About the pull request
Added a cyanide pill to the CLs briefcase when the M… Ps are breaking down your door and you don't want to rot in jail for growing a xeno hive in their backyard.
Added a Weyland-Yutani coffee mug to the CLs briefcase for more BRAND ADVERTISING!
Added two new beacons for the CLs briefcase.
### **First**
Bodyguard Beacon. Send a message to PMC Dispatch and request a single Corporate Security Officer for any of your emergency needs.
### **Second**
Lawyer Beacon. Got a CO that broke the contract he signed seconds before? Got a survivor who spoke to the CC and broke his NDA? Corporate Affairs presents you with a beacon, aiming to solve all your contract and Corporate needs with a specialised duo of expert Lawyers!
# Explain why it's good for the game
Taking inspiration from this forum post on ideas guys, I found some very interesting ideas and decided to put the peoples thoughts in a PR.
https://forum.cm-ss13.com/t/cl-briefcase-and-what-items-you-want-to-see/6268
The cyanide pill can be used if in a pickle and the USCM is on your ass for some ML violation. Or some sort of W-Y suicide pact if you have more loyalists to your cause.
The coffee mug is a nice souvenir, why not you know. It's there in the code, make it have some use.
### **The Big Ones**
The two beacons, maybe some people have issues with this one. The bodyguard and lawyer one BOTH cost 50 points each (the max) as to not be abused and bought every minute.
Let me begin with saying, these work like the CMB/PMC Beacons the Marshal/Goon Professor have, meaning they need **ADMIN PERMISSION TO BE SENT.** If an admin decides to allow either one of these beacons then the first one has a single Corporate Security Officer, incase the CL is threatened and the MPs are inactive, or when there's a person breaking in the CLs office, or any other scenarios which the Executive would need Company protection. A SINGLE Corporate Goon I feel will not impact the round as much or cause any extra havoc.
Secondly, the two man Lawyer team which spawn with notepads, pens, clipboards, tape recorders, the lead lawyer with a secure briefcase and 1000 cash counterfit. They have no guns, no bodyguards, they are basically a slightly better version of the CL, or slightly worse. And it can increase the RP? Maybe make the CO return from deployment? Harrass the Captain long enough so he orders your arrest? Who knows, we'll find out.

Hopefully this can be merged, because the CL is heavy lacking in content and skillset ( all that guy can do is drive ).
Oh yeah, might need to disable the beacons during hijack. Cause then everyone will rush to the shuttle to steal it or escape it.
PMC distress signal for just 51 point. Just to troll people.
