Still no word from Goose or Butler about their budget allocations? We may need to make some executive decisions in a few hours.

Can someone sum up for me what's going on today IE this research facility proposal and what else? I have to run back out soon for the store and am trying my best to catch up.

Technically the NE and SW Atlantic aren't next to each other - It's a two week trip. Do you want it to go via the NW or SE Atlantic?

If you have the capability, put a backup plan in place for missing peeps

Ah. Well the have it move to NW Atlantic this turn, and I'll deliberate from there.
Since no word from butler at this point: Holding order to research the first tech for military and infection branches(don't have the tree in front of me).
Goose the cliffnotes so far are that the world wants a disease research center, but are debating where to put it. China wants it with them, as so far they are the only nation to publicly pledge funds. The other leading choices are Antarctica or Iceland, want remember who is backing which right now.
Also Goose you should try to make allies with an NPC country, Ireland helps secure our borders, Uruguay puts it in striking distance of Argentina if they continue the revolution route. Choice is up to you.

Sorry for the delay everyone!
I'm here!
If everyone's okay with it, I will propose a scientific partnership-is China the choice? I'm not super enthusiastic about their push to put the research center in their borders, but they do have major resources.

Yay!
I'd consider either them or America for a partnership. I seem to also be personally agreeing with a lot of what Germany has to say as well.
If you have time, feel free to change the items being researched, those were placeholders until you got here. I believe discrider gave you $12 million to play with.

I'm sorry I haven't been around today but I was working and then had to go grocery shopping. Did someone pick a place to ally with, if not, pick the closest richest neighbor.

Cool. I'll talk to America and Germany about partnerships-I'm not thrilled with China's push for power, which hurts our goal of keeping the global stage balanced.
As for investments, I'm thinking Cause of Infection for sure, and then maybe renewable energy to open up that side of the tree-I'm not sure we need to upgrade our military right now, unless the conflict with Argentina really heats up.

Sent partnership proposals to the USA and Germany. I'll let you know when I hear back from them.

Just to be clear, I will use Farangu's placeholder orders for research unless BFL definitively says otherwise.
You still have another 2 hours 45 minutes to make that decision.

America has responded positively to the partnership offer. They want us to research conscription. In exchange we can request something for them to research for us. I'm thinking we ask them to do renewable energy, so that we can make progress in all three branches of the tree.

I don't have any agent orders for you guys - Are you activating your agent this turn?

Looking over your military control, you only have one group of destroyers. Are you still happy for it to travel?
