Still, AMAZING!

Wow. Big, fat spoiler alert.

Thanks for transcription. I needed to make an edit so I'll edit the post up there with the transcript, if you would kindly remove it from this post just to avoid confusions.

@Tolni: It should NOT glitch out.

After some debate, I will not be joining as The Kingdom of Korea, but as The Enclave

If the GMs will allow it, of course. I have orders ready upon confirmation.

Han Republic at war ? What did I Miss ?

Requiem for the Republic. I've just gone into a mental frenzy of plans to fight this, but I better go to bed. I'd wish for the update to be up when I wake so that I can begin with the preparations (if, indeed, there are any to be made by then).

Remember that Stalin panicked and went into a mental breakdown when Germany attacked. After his vacation the Politburo asked him to save the country. I forget how that went but the point is: fight! Fight! Fight!!!!!

The Great Zhao has personally been told via wire by the President of Han that he had planned to invade the Great Zhao just as the Great Zhao invaded Han. There is no "defender" in this war.

Also, grow a mustache. Not a tiny cute mustache under your nose, but a big, fluffy one. It served him well.

The Great Zhao would like to draw attention to his magnificent Fu Manchu, which in OTL is probably called a Zhaostache.

Extract from the Memoirs of Sir George Pendleton

And so that's how the Long March ended. I was walking through Bombay with Marcy and a Secretary came up to us as we stood by St. Thomas. He very calmly told us that the British Empire now existed in a state of war with Germany. I was shocked, it had taken me totally by surprise. We had been terrified of a war, with Russia, with America, with ourselves or even with Britain. It was almost a relief to hear that it was with Germany.

We began breath out again after a month of holding our breath. Yes we still occupied Goa, yes we still had an issue of succession of leadership and yes Tom Black was declaring Australasia as traitors. But at the end of the day even though we were now confirmed at war we could begin to stop what had been all of our preparations for the worst.

Transcript of an Interview between Lord Rochester and Sir George Pendleton conducted as part of the Rochester Commission.

Rochester: When Project Harrow was first conceived would you have described it as preparation for the worst in a time of grave uncertainty in India.

Pendleton: Yes, absolutely. That was the intention from the beginning.

Rochester: Its says here in your memoirs that following the declaration of war you began to stop what you called "all of our preparations for the worst". Did that include Project Harrow?

Pendleton: Now that's a bit of a weaselly way of setting up the question your grace. And I think there are various issues here that would have to be noted before giving a definitive answer...
