I am aware of that. We have two to three turns to prepare, the Councilor actions will unlock on the third turn. We probably won't get to use them, but they are something to keep in mind regardless.

Each of the actors/directors mentioned is involved in Disney stuff. I was kinda expecting there to be a code there, but I don't see an obvious one. (Edit: Maybe not Bimbo? Not sure if they were in an actual Disney property.)
Here are the roles I found (including directorships). No guarantees there aren't errors or missing ones.

...sorry for that, guys.
But say, has it ever occurred to David that he and Frakes both sound and *look* pretty similar?
Very important question: did Negaduck steal Leno's car collection while he was at it?
Researching insect control might be a good idea. If we get attacked by Bushroot, a swarm of locusts could come in handy.

Say, did we ever figure out what the deal was with there being 2 Negaducks? Because I have a sneaking suspicion that the Scissors are just a way to hide blatant evidence of Negaduck being in two places at once via an obvious bit of Magic to pin the blame on.
This feels a bit like a Supervillain debut scheme, when they tend to be at their most dangerous to establish their cred to the audience. The narrative is complicated by Negaduck 2 having the backing of Negaduck 1 (and god, a Quest team of the two having 120 Martial would be horrifying), but if 1 is showing off his new partner, then it still sort of counts, and it could be a 'best of both worlds' situation for them, qualifying as both a debut and a long-term scheme, based on the main organizers.

I think that we have no clue and if anyone ever figured it out, it probably got lost in other discussions. Too many possibilities, from time shenanigans to clone stuff of any of many potential sources.
I mean... ok. If I remember right there was "teo" negaducks one was darkwing split into good and evil side.. but I don't think *that* negaduck..acted...
..ok. this is. *werid* but one negaduck is much more violent then the other. ( if I remember right)
What if negaduck had megavolt remake that device and split *him* in two. Maybe to " get to kill darkwing all over again?" But other megaduck is just evil enough to be useful...
After all the only person he can stand is himself. Or heck he just shot darkwing with it again then chainsawed "good" darkwing

It could be anything from cloning, other dimensions, or lookalikes...
Side thing but:
It's simple, genius, and we absolutely would have missed it if we hadn't known he was trying to cut us out from the whole picture.
He's manipulating us by pointing out the things that are absolutely true and probably what we would be doing anyway. Nothing is wrong with what he's saying, but for Xanatos the key thing here is that Doof is staying in his own corner and not knocking over the Jenga tower. Which, well, this does. Look at the thread reaction focusing on how can we weather the storm that Negaduck's sending to us, not how we're going to get involved with Negaduck himself. The fact that he gets insight on how we deal with crisises is a bonus. Especially now that he doesn't have to deal with Danville. Either we win and he's just saved effort for other things in his action economy, or we lose and he goes "well, I tried to warn him"
Seeing Xanatos lay out his thought process and then seeing it in action makes it look obvious but if we hadn't gotten it we probably would have slipped it under the radar
Leads off by directly attaching it to us, thus capturing Doof's immediate interest (as anyone would upon hearing, hey Negaduck is after you)
Ties the city to it, and his emotions clue Doof in that yes, this is very serious
A (probable) lie, but Doof doesn't know that, and it further drives home the point he wants to make.
Catch the sneaky Doofania reference?
He reels Doof in here. Gives him a timeframe to focus on, the "anything past that" part will make sure Doof focuses on it and gets on it, and the last bit gives the impression that "oh wow, I'd really like to help, but everything is in motion already", which ever so coincidentally makes us less likely to approach him and disrupt his own planning.
This last bit ensues Doof has just enough time to parse the information and use it, but not enough time to step back and see the bigger picture.

I hard disagree on this, mainly because throwing it out the window means we're shattering the anti-Negaduck plans.
Why Xanatos's plan works, and why we're most likely going along with it anyway, is because all Xanatos is doing here is pointing out what he's learned, and saying what we should and in fact want to do. Nothing he says here is wrong, because Xanatos's goal here isn't to cripple us or anything. It's to keep us focused on our preparations so we don't stumble into messing with his by accident.

They actually did split ND in the Boom! Studios comics. Negativer-Duck and Slightly-Less-Negaduck argued over how excessive should their destruction of St. Canard should be.
I guess I'll put it here because I'm seeing a lot of baseless guesswork.
Here's my best assessment of what's going on based on actual evidence.
The Cities:
The Fearsome Five + Negaduck = 6 total supervillains, 7 if we count Bradley Uppercrust AKA: The Xtremist as his own thing instead of a sidekick. It depends on whether Negaduck sees Bradley as enough of a full member of the FF to trust with his own attack.
I'm thinking no given their interactions but I could be wrong. Either way, I'll be proceeding on the assumption of 6 attacks.
That means, if there's one assigned to a city each, we're dealing with attacks on 6 or 7 different cities initially before whatever finale Negaduck has planned.
Here's my plausible list
My Reasoning:
We have direct confirmation Danville is one of them. We can guess the rest based on Xanatos's thoughts and actions.
New York is probably another, given Xanatos reached out to Macbeth to act as personal bodyguard for himself and his son.
You don't make promises to Macbeth without reason, because the one thing he wants is killing Demona---that's a big commitment to make.
Part of Negaduck's plan required preemptively breaking into the Money Bin during the Halloween event, and afterwards jumping some of Glomgold's employees. Xanatos saw fit to reach out to Glomgold specifically. It's not a stretch our third city is Duckburg.
We can assume Cape Suzette is also a target.
And then Zootopia and LA round things out.
If It's 7 Instead of 6:
If Xtremist does get his own city, I can see one of two possibilities for an extra city on the list.
1) St. Canard itself.
We don't actually know who did this. It's a ???.
Wouldn't it be poetic if the Fearsome Five secretly organised for the city they ruined to be redeveloped, only to destroy everything again a few years later? Seems like something Negaduck would find amusing.
2) Washington
It's a high profile target that's really the only rationale. A nationwide attack *without* hitting the capitol would have something missing.
What We Can Rule Out:
Shego's territory is off the table, because Xanatos doesn't actually need anything from her, just her superheroes. If she was in the crosshairs, he'd have warned her like he did Doof, Glomgold, and Khan.
Olympia we get directly told is out of immediate danger as well.
San Fran is also off the table---something's going down, but it's unrelated to Negaduck.
The Attacks:
We can guess with variable degrees of certainty what kind of attacks the Five are going to pull off based on the preparations Negaduck has made.[/QUOTE]
Here's my best guess:
My Reasonings:
If Bradley is involved he's coming to Danville. He is Max's nemesis after all.
Only one of these cities is on the East Coast---NYC. Negaduck is the only one who's been seen on both coasts. I'm willing to bet he's taking New York for himself.
Throughout Xanatos's interlude he's fixated on the magical community---if it's weighing on his mind it may be relevant to the upcoming crisis.
The big magical setpiece in NYC is the Magus Bazaar, and Negaduck has already attacked there.
I'm guessing he's going to stage some sort of attack on NYC's magical community, likely in the Bazaar itself.
Those are the ingredients for Dip. Cropdusters drop chemicals. Dip is a chemical. You can see where I'm going with this.
There are two major Toon cities we know of; Duckburg and Los Angeles.
He's going to drop Dip on one or both of them.
It makes perfect sense that 2/6 of his planned attacks are dipping toons since "a third of his plan" involves toon relations.
Trying to work out the politics of the most evil hated toons in the world dipping their own kind would make toon-hating bigots' heads explode and Negaduck would probably find that really funny.
However, given his preemptive break-in at the Money Bin on Halloween AND the fact he's been abducting Glomgold's employees I'm willing to bet it's not just dip planned in Duckburg. He's probably going to have FF member sent there take another crack at the Money Bin---if he dipped Glomgold's boullion it'd tank the market on at least half a dozen precious metals which in and of itself would be a nationwide crisis.
The other thing we know for a fact is, he's got a bunch of psychotropic drugs.
Now, what is the signature psychotropic drug of the setting?
Nighthowlers.
What are Nighthowlers? Plants.
Who is Negaduck's plant guy? Bushroot.
I think he's sending Bushroot to either Zootopia or Cape Suzette to airdrop night howler extract and cause a feral frenzy. More likely Cape Suzette, since Khan prepared air defences specifically which he'd need if they're dropping it from planes.
The Takeaway:
Half of the plan here is obvious.
2 of the likely cities he plans to attack have large toon populations: LA & Duckburg.
2 of the cities have large animal populations: Zootopia & Cape Suzette.
Both of these are hot button topics---the Pred/Prey situation is volatile, and toon stuff has simmered and bubbled over periodically.
I think Negaduck is trying to catalyse some kind of backlash that will outlast his initial terrorist attacks to make the country as a whole more dangerous---that's why he had to delay after the Flubber incident spiked anti-toon sentiment prematurely. His plan relies on starting from a basis of unease and then agitating that.
An attack in New York on the Magus Bazaar would also follow the same track---stimulating the existing tensions between mortals and magical creatures embodied in the Huntsclan's ongoing crusade.
The question is, where does Danville fall in?
We're a little bit of everything. Toons, OWCA animals, and we've been playing with magic.
If I had to guess, to make things rhyme, he's going to try something magic related here---though he might also target OWCA and/or Danville's Little Toontown.

OK, this is serious, guy. Negaduck is a serial killer and one of the most dangerous people on the continent, a class only the likes of Shego and Glooby can come close to touching. We do not want to fuck this up at all.

You're forgetting that Danville has a large Animal Population too. We have O.W.C.A.
We have to assume Toons and Monogram, and probably Kitsune will be at a serious disadvantage here.
It could also be irritation for what happened last turn. We forced him to delay his plans, so he is gonna make an example of us. Xanatos thinks we're the first target since his plan relies on Danville weathering long enough to warrant increased government intervention.

Rejoining the feds mechanically only matters for Doof's mental state. Also we can collab with the feds without it.
