Infection and Terror Update:
First signs in West Russia! Infection is on 1. The public is unaware and terror is unaffected. Mongolia is clean.
Funding Update:
50! Spent, you've blown through your bank and are now on 0
Agent Update:
Your agent organises troops to bar refugee passage, citing possibility of infection. You soon find the rash on a number of them. What do you want done with them?
Military Update:
A free unit of firestarters has appeared in your construction queue. Lovely formatting on military orders. A lot of your troops are moving across west Russia now, aiming to arrive in east Russia next turn.
Diplomatic Update:
Mongolia refuses your alliance. Your camp is up, see your agent update for refugee crisis. The Georgian/Russian border has been closed tightly by your agent while it goes unresolved.

We should find a way to burn out the infection completely and possibly invade Mongolia in order to secure a trade route.

You realize Russia and China have an actual border, right?
As for the infected refugees, I see three options:
1) Isolate them and give them antivirals - Probably expensive, but humanitarian.
2) Isolate them and leave them to die - Middle ground
3) Shoot them - Cheap, effective, horrible

Oh, WHOOPS. I guess our trade route should just go directly between the two of us then, and we should quietly restrict movement in Russia in order to prevent the spread of the disease. We should use the excuse that we are preparing for OPERATION CHARIZARD as our excuse.
Infected refugees we should consider the age old 'cure'. Say that we are taking them to a hospital for treatment. Drive them to a facility, and then wipe the slate clean so to speak. With fire.

Gumpy, do we still have the trade route with China? I didn't realize we had a border with them already establish and could just directly run shit through there, as that was the point of setting up Mongolia.
Can we do that?

From the US: "The United States is pleased to announce that Operation Eagle Hawk has successfully concluded with the evacuation of the Federal Mexican Government to Laredo, Texas.
The Mexican government-in-exile will continue to represent its citizens and interests in partnership with the United States until such time as Mexico City can be liberated."
Ok, this is starting to eclipse my capacity for schadenfreude. Maybe the US is right about wanting us to rebuild our launch capability after all.

Wow how did we get infected in West Russia? Was it from sea life or something? We only have Mongolia and China bordering.

He might have meant East Russia, since it's the one to the West.

Wait, can I get some clearing up From Gumpy? East Russia is the one with Moscow and West Russia is the one near Japan. Right now the control panel still shows units moving and they should just stop.
Like all those Infantry from Ukraine should just be in Moscow area now ready to move into Kaz.

I'm waiting to hear from Gumpy on the control panel, but my tentative orders will be,
Move all Infantry in E. Russia (The one with Moscow) Into Kazakhstan
Move One tank from E. Russia into Kazakhstan. ($2)
Secure Georgia/Turkey Border ($4)
Secure Georgia/Iran Border ($4)
We don't really need to build anything else since nothing will get done before game ends. In fact those last guys will only get done at game end. We could have them built in E Russia and then use the training camp if we get it to speed them up a turn, but then they'd need a turn to move into Kaz.

Remember, we've got a few science-y options to slow down or stop the infection - Health PSAs, which we'll get as soon as the next science turn goes through, will turn that infection into Terror, though if our terror is already high that could obv. be counter-productive. Heated Infrastructure we're a few turns away from, someone reported exactly what that does in the thread, lemme find it.
EDIT: Okay Heated Infrastructure is an instant -1, gonna get an agreement with China for that next turn.
Also possibly relevant is the info Germany got from Emergency Procedures-
Purges, Quarantines, Younger Conscription, and Emergency Hospitals: Adds +1 terror on research.
Vaccine Research and Sterilization Kits: -1 terror on research
We can get Heated Inf. and Vaccine Research both next turn and drop terror and infection down by 1, then if we're still infected, PSAs + progress towards the other terror lowering research. Plus Mandatory Health Screening will keep our income from being affected too much by Infection.

Gumpy, you missed my question about the trade route between Russia and China.
And you didn't even announce the Russia/Chinese alliance in the thread :<
