Well if I'm getting financial support from the SFAF, I think I might be able to get a big enough militia and funding to spare to feel safe taking this action.

@Themarineguy You want to send over some Minutemen in that case, since that's basically guaranteed to get the WUA showing up? Maybe we can get some payback for 1898.

Minutemen 1899 Info Sheet says 400, all of them regulars instead of green or part-time.

Updated the second plan, investing the rest in exploring other training options.

[] Use university connections to set up a study regarding business practices, current ones vs more social democrat-type theories. 3 funds.

[] Build a gun factory in the Dakotas, possibly even on a reservation, to bring income and jobs *cough*andguns*cough* to Native American communities, preferably with the cooperation of those communities. Integrated with WSG and sharing a similar profit and management structure. Mid-level managers elected from among the workforce, and high level executives selected from among those by the Offices of the Representative and Director of the NAP, confirmed by popular vote of course and subject to removal the same way. 10 Funds
-[] WSG will of course move in to protect the facilities that comprise the factory and families of the workforce, subcontracting out as necessary should the initial security team prove insufficient.

[] Try to set up the Big Brothers Big Sisters program in NYC. 6 funds, -3 per turn.

[] Found ARM (pacifist).

[] Search for small businesses, bars, etc. who would be willing to take the private security company on as a contractor to provide security, usually just one security guard at a time. 1 fund.

I'm thinking of these.

@Physici
Also, would spending more than 1 funds on job hunting do anything?

BTW, since I have 400 dude(ttes) to hire out, would hiring them require an entire action or would it be possible to just add an addendum to an existing "deploy militia" turn?

Protoplan for the CIA, subject to change. Mad a write-in to address the situation at the reserves in the American Mountain West.

-[] Establish networks to send food and medical aid to the Shoshone and Ute reserves of Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and Colorado. 7 funds.

@Physici A Question since I'm a little confused about what this means:

Does it mean I can say, use two actions to campaign in 4 states? I'm a little unsure about that, and just want it clarified so that things won't get wierd in the planing?

No, not really. Less chance that you'd fail to find anything (which is a very small chance anyway).

Alright, here's my plan. The goal is to reinforce our control of NYC by starting a bunch of newspapers and providing more community services that we control. The other option for mutual aid were also picked with an eye to reinforcing UF electoral dominance where we're strong. It also creates a more highly trained militia force, sends some aid to our Argentinian brethren, and sets us up for assassinating McKinley next turn if he signs the Sedition Act.

[] Plan Securing NYC
-[] Make a newspaper.
--[] Many local across core region: 100 funds, -20 per turn.

--[] Louisiana and Mississippi cities, 10 funds, -5 per turn
--[] Other Missouri cities, 12 funds, -6 per turn

-[] Have anarchists move to Washington D.C. full time and try to get a position in White House menial work such as cleaners or butlers, in positions to spy or assassinate leaders. 3 funds.
-[] Try to expand west coast mutual aid networks to non-Asian communities and establish soup kitchens in those cities.
--[] California, 8 funds, -4 per turn.
--[] Oregon, 4 funds, -2 per turn.
--[] British Columbia, 4 funds, -2 per turn.
-[] Use the 200 veterans that joined the CDC to train a few hundred of the current militia to a higher standard. 20 funds, 40 weaponry..
-[] Set up a system between farmer coops and the cities where RFAA members will buy directly from the farmers to distribute to city anarchists, bypassing retailers to reduce prices for the city workers and increase payment to the farmers. 10 funds, -3 per turn.
-[] Send organizers and monetary aid to the Argentine anarchists. 11 funds.
-[] Send organizers to set up mutual aid networks and soup kitchens in Halifax. 3 funds, -1 per turn.

A bipartisan measure, this act prohibits interference with military operations or recruitment, prevented insubordination within the military, and prevented the support of US enemies during wartime. It would specifically target those who made speeches or other subversive influence to get people to not volunteer or to get the army to engage in insubordination, allowing for greater prosecution against them.

One version of the bill also established press censorship, something hotly debated. It would effectively give the president the ability to stop any newspaper. While many opposed this measure giving too much power to the president and possibly violating the First Amendment, it seemed to have decent support given context of the country.

Big plan for Mutual Aid Expansion, finally sending a major aid package to the Argentine Anarchists like I've been meaning to do for multiple turns now, and protests for May Day and especially against the Sedition Act. Plus continuing the major Unionization push, now onto the Dockworkers (which can be drained some if either the AdP or AB need a Funds infusion.)

This is assuming that the extra 27 Funds from @notbirdofprey (or a substitute from another org) stay with the SPA, giving them a total of 59 Funds.

Build up 2K+ Militia (around the amount of Red Shirts at first Wilmington) with 500 of them being Regulars. That plus more aid and programs to help Wilmington and the farmers, doing the campaign in Wilmington specifically because I don't have the confidence for all of NC just yet, and setting up Dues finally.

Might as well add to the flurry of planposting.

Petitioning the state for legitimacy is silly, but I want to see how this goes. I added the last fund to it just because it's a bigger city not because i see it as more important than creating a secondary government in Wheeling. In a way this is our first step of attemping independence with both the Wheeling and Pittsburgh actions combined with the ACC. I kind of wanted to do another recruitment run this turn but I feel this would be a fine recruitment tool on its own of giving the people some power and exposing the Appalachian identity to many people who might not think we are able to do anything in the region.

[X] [AB] To the streets!
-[X] Try to contact West Virginian towns that may be open to advocating for Appalachian independence. 3 funds.
-[X] Contact friendly towns and establish an Appalachia Coordination Committee made up of representatives from each place for coordination purposes outside of state boundaries. 3 funds, -2 per turn.
-[X] Establish a committee for hosting a Appalachian Cultural Festival each summer. 5 funds, -5 per turn.
-[X] Run a campaign in Wheeling for citizens to, instead of voting in the official election, to form workplace and neighborhood councils to elect a parallel city council, and try to take over the city functions. 21 funds.
-[X] Run a campaign in Pittsburgh to make a new election for the people to form workplace or neighborhood councils to elect a slate of delegates to act as a city council, trying to get as many people to vote in it as possible for legitimacy. Afterwards, form a city charter and petition the state for legitimacy. 22 funds.

Petitioning the state for legitimacy is silly, but I want to see how this goes. I added the last fund to it just because it's a bigger city not because i see it as more important than creating a secondary government in Wheeling.

GIven that Pittsburgh has something like 10x Wheeling's population, I think it'd be better to focus the majority of the Funds there. Particularly with the thing about Overflow that was encountered by the LLRP last turn.

So if anyone needs about 100 some men and women with guns for hire, I've got some. Well armed. Decently trained. Very professional.
Still somewhat untested in . . . "massive response operations" but I can turn over command rights if you've got veteran commanders.

Also attempting to set up a gun factory on native lands with native labor. And if a few guns happen to fall off a wagon, well that's not my problem.
