*** Actually, it's a bit sparsely fleshed out, but it seems to go something like this: In [=BN4=], Regal was already convinced HumansAreBastards and Nebula was already entering mainstream by the time the game rolled around, and even though he was probably planning to enact the [=BN5=] Soulnet plot, the big rock about to hit the planet showed up, and since he was convinced humanity sucked, he wanted to make sure the big rock hit the planet. He failed, so by [=BN5=] he activated his backup plan (technically his first plan until the asteroid showed up). As for the [[MadeOfEvil Dark Chips]], he wanted to prove HumansAreBastards in both [=BN4=] and [=BN5=], and what better way to do it than by corrupting the Internet, which the whole world is pretty much literally connected to. In short, the thin plot can be justified (on Regal's ambition's end at least) by the fact proving HumansAreBastards was his baseline motivation for both games, on [=BN4=] had him attempt genocide via ColonyDrop due to his disgust, and [=BN5=] had him instead try to enact massive MoreThanMindControl to acheive the same result.

Added DiffLines:

* What's with Regal's plan? He wants to create a new world of pure evil, which is silly, but I'll accept it. But how is the asteroid involved? His plan seems to be something like this:
** 1. Sabotage laser plan.
** 2. Propose Navi plan.
** 3. Delete [=MegaMan.EXE=].
** 4. Gain control of asteroid.
** 5. ???
** 6. Profit!
*** Regal didn't really ''have'' a developed plan until the last third of the game. All Lan and [=MegaMan.EXE=] did were bump into a few of his agents, not the organization at large. That's why they had to use so many pointless tournaments as substitute for an actual plot. As for what he wanted to do with Duo; got me.
*** Duo (and the asteroid) were unaccounted-for elements, I do believe.

*** according to another wiki: "Regal's plan was to alert the program Duo of the evil that existed on earth and then stop the program with his Navi, [=LaserMan=], to look like a hero." presumably after that the world would acknowledge him and follow his every whim... [[DudeWheresMyRespect but we see how well that went for Lan]] and he wasn't even PLANNING on saving the world
** Regal didn't really ''need'' a plan at the moment. [=LaserMan=] had the self-sufficiency to run Nebula by himself while Regal was busy helping to save the world. There was no real "plan" until Regal realized (after the early tournaments) that the meteor was a giant computer system (it's unclear if he and [=LaserMan=] were even aware of Duo in the first place). [=LaserMan=] and [=ShadeMan=], meanwhile, are busy trying to deal with the [=MegaMan=] problem (more specifically, his newborn Dark Soul). It would've been nice if the game went into more depth about the second part.
