SWORD OF SMATTAS. CAN YOU NOT HEAR A WORLD CRY OUT FOR JUSTICE? WHEN WILL YOU DELIVER IT?

ABCD - Our troops will have the best intoxicants, will be on the greatest bender, they're going to drink so much they get tired of drinking.

GI NASA not being in easy reach is FAKE NEWS.

This, the troops will get drunk regardless. I'm sure the generals will find a way to make getting drunk on duty both unfun and expensive for their men.

The same eye cannot both look up to heaven and down to earth.

quote:

F) Tell the generals to do what they think is best

"This is a military issue generals, you do what you think is best."

Admiral Richardson sighs, he must be pissed you didn't address him properly. Whatever, gently caress you you ungrateful poo poo.

The Joint Chiefs scurry off, they seem a little too happy. That could be problems down the road. Hmmmmmm.



quote:

I) Tell those NASA nerds to set up a base at the white house

You look at Bannon and Jerry and start telling them what to do.



"Get those Pencil dicks from NASA to relocate all their intel and bring them here."

Jerry looks at you concerned.

"Are you sure sir? That'll be seen as a confirmation that this is alien in nation, people could panic."

"Yes I'm loving sure. What I'm not sure of is whether you'll be employed or not by the end of the day."



With that you set Jerry straight. loving rear end in a top hat.

What to do now?

A) Check Twitter (Discover what people are saying is going on in the dream, search for rumors)

B) Turn on Fox News (Learn what other countries are doing)

C) Bannon's phone seems to be going off the hook, ask him what's up (Learn what Bannon's people think)

D) Player choice

E) Read relevant memos and reports created by officials on this disturbance Unlocked once you've reached level 2

You whip out your phone and begin looking at twitter.







Apparently there's writing in the dream people are starting to see. This doesn't bode well.

You turn on Fox news.

quote:

A fugitive remains on the run today after escaping custody at Fulton prison. Details are slim at this point but the US Marshal service is asking people to be on the lookout. The man was wounded by a gunshot prior to escape.

In Germany scientists are working furiously to decode the language seen in the most recent dream experienced. These writings may not be complete enough to discern anything, especially without context however attempts remain hopeful. This comes as leaks spread throughout the EU of a unified effort to examine the dream and understand it. There is still no word on the American response however there are reports that NASA is relocating.

You decide to call Teresa. It actually looks like she's been trying to reach you all day.

Jerry sits down in the side office with you and sets it up. You make the call.

"Hello Teresa."

"Hello Mr. President."

There's enough derision dripping off her words to drown the Atlantic. gently caress her.

"So I'm on the phone here, what do you know about this dream thing."

"Well Mr. President, the EU has created a collective that we have joined to try and figure out what exactly this thing is. We'd like to welcome you to send your best resources to it and we have a list of American personnel we would like to work with. All information is shared simultaneously and instantly between all participating countries. I have a busy schedule Mr. President, what will it be?"

It's getting pretty late and you have a pretty strict "6 and done" policy and it's already 7p and you want this call done. What should you do?

A) "Sure, you can have the entire list. However I demand you relocate your efforts to America. We have more assets anyways and we're already working with the Asians" [Bluff]

B) "Sure, we'll send the entire list over once I take a look at it and my people confirm"

C) "America can work on it's own without you, however we will share our assets with you if you do the same"

D) "Your entire navy couldn't even beat a bunch of farmers with pitch forks and despite being the center of the 'enlightened' world we made electricity, cars, and radio first. No offense but we're good." [Not a bluff, you believe this]

E) "I need to speak with people and get back to you." Hang up on her, show her who's in charge. Total 80's power move.

Yeah, trust me that I'm not in favor of playing the exaggerated version of Donald Trump, but not doing a power move seems way out of character.

We should call her up in a few hours (like 4 AM UK time, obviously) and agree to A.
