High priority projects and planning
Ion Cannon Overhaul Program: Begin phased repairs of the Ion Cannon network. Only 10% of the Ion Cannon network should be powered down at any time, and all AOs that those Ion Cannon networks are supposed to be servicing will be warned at least 24 hours ahead of time before the Ion Cannon in their AO is shut down for repairs. If an Ion Cannon is cheaper to replace than repair than build a new one according to modern standards. All new Ion Cannon stations need to be equipped with Nod style lasers as secondary weapons and PD and must be large enough to have upgrade capacity for upgrades like sensors, fire storm defenses, and other undetermined updates. The future ion cannon network will have redundant command and control infrastructure. (Emergency priority, 30%)
The Oasis Initiative: Begin designing and implementing with Public Affairs and Armed Forces a comprehensive network of railroads that can span Central Europe. In addition to cargo, passenger, and recovery trains, we need armored trains capable of launching UAVs and engaging enemy units as well as trains equipped wtih resonance emitters to destroy tiberium along the rail lines. Train hubs will need to be designed as large, defensive strong points, and we will need a system of firebases and patrol points built to work in parallel along the length of the rail lines which will need to be built as near as possible to major Yellow Zone settlements. (High priority, 17%)
The Bread and Bullets initiative: Start designing and implementing a comprehensive system of self-sustaining or semi-self sustaining prepositioned supply stations in orbit for supply drops to troops or cities for either military or public safety use. (High priority, 17%)
Side projects and planning
Projects Babylon, Trimurti and Foresight: Start work on a new stand alone test bed installation which will be used to test experimental technologies on, such as Scrin technology, bomb pumped lasers, resonance field nodes, starfighter hangars, etc. Preferably modular design, incorporating technology from the Ion Cannon upgrades into the design. Research and development will be put into additional orbital weaponry, hypervelocity missiles, sensors, and/or point defenses that can be modified onto existing Ion Cannons. Start looking into longer and faster sensor technologies for the purpose of detecting Scrin fleet movements. (Average priority, 10%)
The Clockwork Initiative: Continue to assess the internal security of the R&D Division's facilities against attacks from within or without. Begin a survey of the security situation all of research assets in South America and deploy Research Division security personnel to South America to start doing emergency drills requiring either a liquidation of a facility or its immediate evacuation. Take stock of all archived research into Nod technology, the Tacitus, and the Scrin. Provide specialized expertise to Public Affairs or Intelligence in any affairs related to "world rumors" as requested. Begin investing more in personnel training and education. (Average priority, 10%)
Project Mjolnir: Continue research into resonance weapons. Focus on orbitally dropped resonance bombs and earthquake causing rods from god weapons to (at least temporarily) purge a sector of tiberium or military formations or in the latters' case weaken a red zones tiberium glaciers enough groundside sonic emitters will have an easier time of it. (Average priority, 10%)
Project Desperation: Start assessing the utility of nanites in combating tiberium growth. Until Project Clockwork is online nanite research will be limited in scope and mostly theoretical. (Low priority, 2%)
Project COMP-7-133: General refinement of AI technology aimed at stability, safety, and miniaturization for infantry scale AI and widespread AI adoption. (Low priority, 2%)
Project NPHYS-29-262: General refinement of nuclear fusion technologies aimed at superior compact fusion reactors for tanks and power armor. (Low priority, 2%)
Project Praetorian: All predators that are being decommissioned and replaced by the new heavy tanks the Armed Forces is using will be converted and reissued with the latest and greatest in resonance technology (which will fit onto the chassis). The immediate Project goal is to significantly outperform zone shatterers. Long term project goal is pioneering next generation mobile sonic emitters on a larger scale than either shatterers or Praetorians. (Pending funding)
Director of Intelligence: TerrisH
Standard CI work (10%): congratulate the person in charge of counterintelligence last year for their good work, and to keep it up. hopefully, they will do just as good year as last, or perhaps even better.
Standard anti-nod operations (24%): continue Gaining information of NOD operations, tracking their movements, and keeping the off balance. limited raids against any efforts to re-enforce Italy are authorized.
South America to Africa Tunnel infiltration (5%): Agents are to be dispatched to confirm the rumors concerning this tunnel. if they are proven true, the agents are to infiltrate the facility and integrate themselves among the construction Worcesters, and standby for further orders. Plans will be drawn up back at HQ both to destroy the tunnel, and to instal servaliance along its length to monitor NOD traffic between Africa and south America. they are not to be enacted until next turn.
Opperation Penticoast support (15%): Continue to support and provide intelligence to the armed forces, and support the invasion with commando raids ahead of the advancing front.
South America Investigation (5%): Find out what is happening in south America. Priority is survival of agents to actually get the information to us, as opposed to getting all the information.
Forgotten research and infiltration (10%): continue operations to gain information and contacts among the forgotten, along with maintaining our current contacts with them. (Notice: If criminal elements(by their standards) of the forgotten faction can be found and extracted without notice, do so. they will be taken back to a succure facility for through interrogation before being disposed of.)
Raid of TAWAR facility in Sibiria (10%): Primary goal is to Locate the TAWAR facility, and construct around it to succure it. NOD resistance is expected, and all precautions should be taken. Once the location is succure, evaluations of the facility and it's contents will take place. If they can be safely extracted, Super-Kodiaks are to be called in and loaded up with everything we can pry free from the facility, for analysis back in the blue zones. If it can't be safely extracted, Onsite analysis is to begin, and the facility defenses are to be beefed up.
Commando assistance of forgotten in Sibiria (5%): [PENDING COMMAND APPROVAL] If command approves and can negotiate proper recompense from the forgotten (mainly permission to scan the cave paintings and temporary access to do so) Commandos are to be dispatched to assist the forgotten in their conflict with NOD.
-If permission is not given,command is free to remove this action and allocate the 5% to the technology acquisition action.
-if negotiations fall through, commandos are to be re-directed to take out NOD bases near the TAWAR facility instead.
Infiltration and/or raid of NOD science facility in Australia (5%): The NOD facility in Australia is of high interest, as it will not only tell us more about current NOD tech,, but what they and possibly Kane are interested in. Efforts are to be made to infiltrate short-term and long-term agents into the facility. Permission to raid the facility is given, if it looks like they are in the process of abandoning it.
Acquisition efforts For Scrin technology (10%): As we did with nod technology last turn, this turn we focus on the Scrin Technology. Locate and Acquire any and all things scrin, and hand it over to R&D for later analysis.
Funding for Anti-Kane thing tank(1%): no results expected yet.

Actions:
Operation Pentecost: With Nod on the back foot due to Intel's raids and preparations finally complete, Operation Pentecost, the invasion of Italy and Threshold 19 specifically, will now commence. Every single GDI asset we can spare will use Germany as a staging ground to attack Italy. Control of the Alps is of particular priority, once we control those we have a straight line into Italy, the majority of air assets will be assigned there. Today, the Apocalypse will remain cancelled gentlemen. (60%)
Continued Stabilization of GDI Territory: Continue to keep GDI territory safe and away from Nod hands. With most of GDI's assets currently occupied with Pentecost, a defensive stance is to be prioritized until more assets are available. (10%)
Research:
Olympus Initiative: Start work on the next generation of railgun technology. Take implicitly into mind the performance of advanced Scrin war constructs and the requirements needed to deal with them effectively along with any future threats Nod may decide to throw at us. While the overwhelming focus for now should be on tank weaponry, theoretic work on designs such as railvulcans, electromagnetic autocannons, and electromagnetic machine guns will also be undertaken. (15%)
Project Thetis: While the current generation of armor has served well, we will need far better to meet the coming challenges of the post-war era in the face of both advancing Nod technology and the alien technology of the Scrin. To that end, we will begin designing a new armor kit for our next generation of tanks, a comprehensive system of armor composites, reactive armor, and point defense systems to defeat any currently forseeable threat that will arise to challenge us. (15%)
Director of Public Affairs: RulerOfNothing
Blue Zone Propaganda (5%): Morale in the Blue Zones has suffered as of late, so Public Affairs will continue working to assuage the fears of the populace of those regions.
Yellow Zone Propaganda (5%): As we are trying to expand our influence in the Yellow Zones, we will deploy propaganda to counter Nod's efforts in these areas and bring more people onside.
Recruitment Campaign (10%): In order to meet the manpower requirements of Operation Pentecost, a campaign will be started to get more people in both Blue Zones and Yellow Zones that are on our side to join the GDI armed forces.
Spacelift Capacity Expansion (10%): Due to the sharp increase in the usage of GDI's spacelift capacity, some effort will be invested in building new spaceports and reclaiming spaceports that have been lost to Tiberium encroachment where feasible.
Central Europe Rebuilding (15%): This will focus on restoring New Eden to Blue Zone status, but will also include delivering relief supplies to afflicted areas in Central and Eastern Europe, as well as investing in infrastructure and logistic support to support further military actions in Italy and the Balkans.
Tiberium Reclamation (35%): Our priorities here are to reverse damage done by Scrin attacks on our Tib reclamation efforts and to protect the Blue Zones from Tiberium expansion. If we have resources available after dealing with that we will attempt to clean up around large Yellow Zone settlements under GDI control.
Blue Zone Infrastructure (10%): The Blue Zones contain much of our industrial and research capacity, as such it is of high importance that the damage caused by Scrin and Nod attacks are repaired as quickly as possible. Focus on repairing damage due to the Third Tiberium War first, then work on improving transport and Tiberium storage capabilities.
Yellow Zone Infrastructure (10%): Investing in infrastructure in these regions has the dual benefit of increasing our influence while reducing Nod's influence. This work should focus on transport, medical and military infrastructure in regions where the GDI military has the upper hand.
