Okay, so... The original plan for the Naval Convoy attacks didn't really make a whole lot of sense, what with me making up borders and assuming ships would spawn in certain places that Ketara didn't dump them. Oh, and there's that whole bit about KETARA CHANGING THE SHOP PRICES LAST NIGHT!!!
Err.... hrm...
Anyways. I did a little more crunching, and developed a second possible way of implementing the strategy. It involves sending one lone loser (Aldo) on a hunt for Feddie gold, while going back to our previous idea of using the forces in East Asia as a giant assed hammer into the kneecaps of the Federation in that region.
Basically, Aldo leaves and meets up with the Excelsior, then purchases a Gaw. Then he carries out the original plan of attacking naval convoys.
What happens in East Asia is a little less straightforward. The plan below includes movements to the region, but not actions. I figured we won't really know what exactly what to do in East Asia until the Federation starts making a move. So people there might be sparring, or mass ambushing somebody, or targetting a ship or two.
Here's a very quick, limited list of actions we might consider next week. I apologize if it seems like Aldo's getting some special treatment. Honestly, he's the one going with the fleet for three specific reasons: 1) he can get to West Arctic faster than Xavier, and 2) he has suits that can hover over the oceans unlike Ritter or Duncan, and 3) if we attack on Thursday the RP credit in Aldo's inventory will be usable in East Asia the following Monday.
So, 'ere goes...

?East Asia forces launch an attack?
I'll stop here, because at this point we really won't know what condition we'll be in. I'm hoping the Gaws will have suffered only limited damage, and will be able to jump over to the Indian and finish up the sweep. But who knows?
And again, the East Asian situation is difficult to judge, since we don't know what the Federation is thinking.
That's about it. Gonna post this on the regular Zeon forum tomorrow when I wake up. Any insight you all could provide (or double checks on the figures/locations) is, as always, appreciated.
