Well, well. Interesting results of that talk. Could this be an opportunity for our esteemed Monk to gain personal military advantages? 
*Gasp* What if he owned and patented the rights to Rifling? He could make a killing! In more than one sense of the word. 
Or perhaps I'm being uselessly and willfully paranoid. Eh. In either case, 50 gold seems like a more than reasonable investment.

Lets just say i've agreed to keep most of the information under my hat. I'm glad LH felt that the Gunpowder thing could be cleared up for people. The Doctor didn't want to trust the government. They gave a good reason considering the changes each election bring, they may have nice Mr Aysee now... But later they might suddenly find themselves answering to the Warlord Arya or ilduce! So... Can't really blame them for wanting a level of independence.
I offered them to be under a board of directors made up of England, Ireland and Germany but they also turned that down. Once i convinced them we needed some kind of middleman to vouch for them they told me everything provided i handled most of their protection and interaction.

Whosit! Shame on you! It's not like i would suddenly hold back technology or free promotions in a secret diabolical plot... and it's 50 gold lump sum for this breakthrough and then another 50 if we want another. I think that is all i can say on the subject.
The Scientists have been handled and we can carry on. I believe there was some talk about dealing with the Vahalla facility yes? Then after that we can get the turnset done. So will this be like the Baltic incident in Arya's term where we have to choose attack plans or do we just tell the Night Eagles to deal with it?

Heh heh. I'm just ruffling your feathers, or something like that. Or am I?
No, I am. Interesting to note that this is not a one-time-only deal. Definitely an affordable price-tag, even if the odds of a successful return are low.Regarding the Valhalla, I think that the plan was to "kill it with fire." It seems to be our thing. Of course, perhaps that will lead the Vikings back to us, even if all our guys are disguised as Arabs or Egyptians or what-have-you. Maybe we should kill it with ice.

I still think we should team up with the Ukrainians for Operation Ragnarok. We should dress up the night eagles as Ukrainians and have them lead Ukrainian freedom fighters in raiding the facility. We go in, steal the research, smash up the facility, then make copies of the research and share it with our Ukrainian allies as payment for their services.

Excellent. Now the next thing we need to do is come up with a really damn cool name for our facility. I propose calling it Area 52.

Just to let you know, after an interesting little conversation with Ravus I now support naming the Facility "Avalon" - as a counterpart to Valhalla.

Hmmm i surprisingly missed very little. Well i approve of the deal with the scientists, so we should move on to the valhalla facility. I stand by my plan to let the night eagles use arabian uniforms and lead the ukrainians on a raid, where we capture the scientists, kill the witnesses, and burn the place down. Actually, if Athers could come up with some sort of early 'bomb', that would be even better. or if our own scientists have a prototype in this area, it could be worth testing it in the field.
Kill it with Earth? Or with Water? How about killing with Air! But yes lets keep things rolling. Quick attack and burn!
Neat. So Are we sticking with somthing like Area 52 or going with the Mystical Avalon?
I enjoy the love and trust i get from you all. Honestly i do. I tear up.

Avalon is my preference.

Well, it didn't help that you sent sensitive government PMs on to Opposition members and vica versa.

So, we are taking the Eagles away from whatever domestic pursuits they are currently enjoying and sending them to the Ukraine?

Glad to see that the talks with the scientists went well. Wish that we had more government troop protecting the compound, but what can you do? Avalon does sounds like a neat name, though.

Avalon sounds good. Dont tell the public what it is though. Disguise it as a new troop training compound to raise morale. The isles are probably scared to death ever since ireland was taken by the nordics. Fort Ravus.
Yes LH i think so. Will we get to choose the plan of attack or is it just a matter of telling them to go and do their job?

No, disguise Avalon as, like, some kind of IRS accounting facility. No one will want to go within five miles of the place.

Just build it inside the mountain. Use the mountain itself as the disguise.
I'm back!!!
Nice progress on the scientists, Ravus, I knew I had picked the right man when I chose you!

Anyways, Avalon is nice, and I like the "Hiding it in Plain Sight" idea... Like a government accounting office that just happens to be in the Pyrenees, and anyone who wants to visit... Gets tied up in beauracratic redtape.
---
So if anyone doesn't object, I'd like to send the plan in tonight... Were there any significant changes made? Because I didn't notice any... But I miss details a lot, so.

NO! Damn Time Zone difference! Did you send of the Night Eagles Aysee? Has everything been sent? The Night Eagles were performing some secret Domestic action! I was going to recommend sending just Arya and his troops to get Arab aid in a blunt attack on the Valhalla Facility instead of using the Night Eagles...
I fear i am too late...
