Any word from medical? Did they approve CAG request to have Rachel admitted away from based?

The commander isn't making getting information easy after the last attack.

The districts are somewhat in good condition, even if Residential 10 and Industrial 03 took a beating.

The Armored Layers are mostly gone, though. The last Angel was 2 layers away from reaching the Geofront.

>>47928171
Yeah, Rachel had it really rough out there these past few months.

>>47928179
No, I don't. I've spent most of my time here with you since the attack.

You're right, I forgot how much we want to punch the new science director....

Geofront layers will unfortunately have to take priority here, and I fear the repercussions this will have on Montreal's morale...

>>47928242
I'm angry too, but we have to keep our cool here. If we go off setting the division head against us more than already, we risk further incidents with him and the commander later down the line.

This is really bad.

Technical division said that they can patch up Unit 03 and 08, but 02 is out for a while. I also asked them about Unit 01 and they told me the regrowth process is going smoothly. I think they'll contact you soon for design guidance.

Our tanks are in optimal condition, which is good for our budget. And let's see... [She search through her paper stack] Our VTOLs got lightly damaged. Queen is almost out.

Concerning the Fighter and Bomber wings: We lost Heart during the botched n2 bombing mission, along with Temperance. What was left of Bell and Hermit made an emergency landing at the Montréal-Mirabel Airport. Search and Rescue Ops recovered 3 of our pilots who safely ejected, amongst them is Lt.Col. Ji Eun.

>>47928323
We have 51 Funding Units. We used our Static Weapons Systems 4 times and the U.N. is redirecting some of our funds to help with the Ottawa effort.

>>47928402
Both.

What happened to Florence? Was she confirmed kill?

>>47928481
I think we should get at least half of our layers repaired. If we're to survive another attack, we'll need them at some level of agreeable defense.

Fix only industrial district 3, and set whatever remains on repairs to our EVAs. It pains me to say it, but we'll have to forgo manufacturing any new weapons this time around.

Also, what's going on in Ottawa?

I agree. As much as I hate to say this, I think we shouldn't invest in District repairs this time.

About Ottawa. The city was hit hard when the Angel passed above it. I heard they tried to delay the Angel with the minimal tank force they had there. Unfortunately the 8th proved to be too strong and destroy a good portion of the city.

Oh, I almost forgot. Eli- The Research Division is asking for 3 Funding Units. They say that they can turn what is left of the Angel's Outer Shell into powerful bombs. ''Something way more suited towards the reality of A.T. Fields than N2 weaponry'' I think they said.

I think we should spare the 3 units. Because if we have a Hail Mary, it should at least work.

Unless they're going to set up HQ to go off, we still control the delivery systems.

Actually, I see what you mean.

I still want to hit the shiny button, and my original point still stands-we need to have something to stop an Angel in its tracks rather than waves of troops and Evas which we don't have anymore.

>>47929026
Give them the go ahead. Take the funds from the EVA's repairs.

...goddamnit.

In that case, consider it done.

We should schedule a ceremony for her. Yeah, I hate to think about that we lost another kid, but as certain queer Brit said, show must go on.

I'm the colossal fag who forgot NBS in last threads tags, so feel free to rip and tear my guts for that.

Really though, what happened to softkills? I know that it's our fault, but surely making the thread with the highest density of 1s the same one as the thread with the highest density of save rolls is in poor taste.

A ceremony is a good idea. She deserves that, at least... I know Section 2 already cleaned her apartment but maybe we could still find something that'll remind us of her. You know, since the casket will be closed. [You hear someone knocking on the door twice, then opening it.]

[Head, Special Psychiatric Division]
Major? May I have a second?

>>47929232
IIRC last thread mentioned being "one bad roll away from Third Impact".
Besides Florence's Unit got scrapped, we dragged her out of the plug, loaded her with drugs, put her in another Unit and that one got scrapped too. Even if the Angel attack wouldn't kill her directly, the sheer stress of the whole thing would. She pushed beyond what anyone could have expected of her and died a hero.

Well. We have that apartment from the receipt to look into, Rachel and Anna probably need us to bust in and offer guidance, and I wouldn't be surprised if we became Persona Non Grata with the commander after we managed to end up one roll away from third impact.

Here's my proposed budget:

>New Bomb Tech Thing: 3
I think this trump card will come in handy. Definitely worth it.

>Eva 03: 8
>Eva 08: 11
Both units repaired to basic full HP excluding repairs. No point going all the way when we don't even have enough pilots for them all, especially not when we get 01 back online. We have more Evas than kids at this point.

>Ace(CAG): 2 (Full repair)
>Chariot(CBW): 2 (Full repair)
>Heart(WCG): 3 (Full repair)
We really need our unit leaders functional. Repairing them will be worth it.

>Armored Layers: 22
All remaining FUs go into the armored layers. Not a full repair, but we're about halfway there.

That's all our FUs spent. Thoughts?

>>47929333
How appropriate for the moment anon.

>fuck you

All right. Funding unit allocation.

51 Funding units.

Research wants 3 to make AT bombs, let them have it.

Spend 8 FUs repairing the armored layers.

40 remaining.

While I'd like to at least get HQ and Industrial up and running, they aren't a priority.

>>47928481
A full fix on the non-EVA units will cost 19.
21 to go.
I suggest spending 9 to fix Eva-3 and 8 to fix Eva-8.

For the remaining 4, equip someone with AT flares. Those things were damn useful.

This unfortunately leaves us with damaged EVAs and damaged Districts, but needs are needs.

>>47929400
So, basically what I proposed with more numbers and tactical information involved?

I'm for this, you get my vote anon.

>>47929416
It's appropriate for any moment in NBS, this is practically Major Anon's theme.

>mfw it's hard to type while saluting.

>>47929400
I think we'll need more units up and running than armored layers. Will that bite us in the ass? there's a good chance it will, but having the units non-operational will also bite us in the ass.

>>47929494
She stated that UNIT 01 and 2 will resume operations. We're not at a deficit for units in the near future if this is true.

However, what we need now is to protect vital areas so we don't get sniped. Remember anon, if HQ or the Geofront falls, it's Quest Over.

>>47929494
My plan puts them at full HP excluding the bonus armor upgrades we bought. They'll technically be at "full" capacity, just not at 110% capacity. We could shave off some armor layers and do more repairs though.

Listen to me clearly. You disregarded a direct order and attacked a member of Nerv using an Evangelion, which we had to disable. Had you not done that we could have saved your friend, but we can't very well do much about that now, can we?

>it's a "Parley cut her hair and lost her muscles" episode

I see...

Well, Joey had to make it on to the swimming team, right?

Any other pilots go to your school?

>>47931436
Has Anna ever seemed like she cared about grades? She wants to grow up quicker but that doesn't necessarily mean acing school.

>>47931515
>Has Anna ever seemed like she cared about grades?
Anna is about being professional and responsible. Good grades go hand in hand with that. I imagine before she qualified as a pilot her goal was getting to prestigious college. Canada has some of those, right?

Hmm. Not that I know of. Only Anna.

It's been a while since I was her, though. I should ask Laurie about her. Maybe she's sick. Or that must be because or her piloting stuff.

She's always gloomy after these lockdowns. She miss classes and stuff. There's that one time we didn't saw her for, like, two whole weeks and when she came back her hair was short! She looked like a boy! Some classmates laughed at her because it looked like she did it herself. It was all unequal, you know? I wonder where she-

Let's collect the stuff. Also let's check and make sure there's not any security cameras or the like nearby.

>>47931895
>>47931801
Units like this almost always have the buildings fenced in and tend to have some sort of check in-at decent ones the staff knows if you've gone in and when you come out. But that's at decent ones. There's a reason why you see them being used for nefarious purposes in Fringe, True Detective, etc.

>>47932018
I'd support this but we need to figure out what kind of plug this thing has and how to access it first. Should we try asking someone for help? I can't think of many people we can trust that are also good with technology.

Lets at least examine the ID card before we do anything.

There is literally nothing /pol/ about that post unless you're triggered by meme words like "cuck" I guess.

Perhaps you have bought too hard into the "anything I don't like or I disagree with is /pol/" boogeyman.
/pol/'s main thing is finding how jews are behind everything, casting meme magic, saying how the Nazis were good boys dindu nuffin need less banking fo dem german prosperitys, and spreading facts that mainstream sources try to censor or discredit.

I don't really remember any discussion on jews or nazis in this quest, or spreading facts that go against the (OOC, as in, IRL) narrative.
Plenty of meme magic tho.

Well, I'm not sure who's to blame, but collective hivemind of Major came out unnecessarily abrasive when dealing with the kid.
Especially the suplex guy.

>>47932037
>>47932138
If you do see /pol/ though, you can trigger the fuck out of them by reminding them that it's the """superior""" white men who ruined their own nations with womens' rights, usury (lending money at interest), glbt stuff, and opening their assholes for any foreigners.
Whereas it is Muslims that treat their women properly, forbid usury, stone gays, and they are the one that conquers foreign land instead of ceding their own.
While the """superior""" race has birthrates below replacement and sits in their ass complaining, muslims are growing in population and giving their lives to fight against Israel.

It'll really [TRIGGER] /pol/ right ragged to point out those filthy inferior subhuman mudslimes are more successful (by /pol/'s own metrics) than the obviously superior white race.

I'd like to think it plays well with the nuropathy of playing on 4chan, but it also depends on weather your okay with playing out the melodramatics of going back on (our) someone else's word.

Hello Liz. Sorry to drop by unannounced, but you know how life is at this point. I wanted to catch you for a moment, I have a few inquiries...

>ask about the shell funding, give us the Deets.
>be really careful about asking information about the HDD. This sounds like sour territory and stuff that REALLY should be handled with discretion. If we need to grease her palms by telling her we are signing the doc at the end of the day for her funding, then do that, IMO

>>47932737
Can we talk in private. Its important.

>>47932737
Just send in the Australians. I hear they actually view 10C weather as "Very Cold" rather than "Pleasantly warm", are most comfortable in extreme heats such as 20C, and are even able to remain functional in unimaginable heats as high as 30C!

>>47932842

But since you signed it in the end it doesn't matter, right? [Another nervous laugh] I mean, since I send Sophie to ask this I was pretty sure that... well, that you'd agree.

[You show her the cord that came with the HDD. She frowns.]
Where did you get this? And how? [She comes closer and start whispering.] This is the kind of plug they use to interface with the MAGI. Even Phillip wasn't allowed to leave the MAGI wing with those. Seriously, Major. Where did you get this? This could get you into serious trouble.

>>47932966
>This is the kind of plug they use to interface with the MAGI. Even Phillip wasn't allowed to leave the MAGI wing with those. Seriously, Major. Where did you get this? This could get you into serious trouble.

I'm pretty sure MAGI is comprised, in part, of organic parts of a girl called Ophelia, and some of the same might be happening to Anna, and I want to save the kids.

[Also we might have been friends with Ophelia, but forgot, due to plot-related amnesia]

>>47932966
>>47932997
Also, we probably have infiltrators STILL sabotaging Magi. Did you notice that our Magi seemed to have a lot less ... personality ... after HoSci was done upgrading her?
If she's a person (or part of a person) then not only might she be suffering, but our entire organisation might be under some internal attack. Still.

Should we tell her Ophelia was a old buddy of ours?
