EFGF - New Week's Operations (5/04/2010)

I want to retreat to either New York or Belfast to repair. Our Medeas are pretty beat up and we can't afford to lose them or the fleet will have to break up which means we would probably lose one of the Big Trays.

The good new: Kyle will be with us and has a lot VP and a high lvl MS team.

The bad news: Chris is with Zeon in a GUNDAMU and has a ton of money. We also lost a lot of planes in the fight so I will have to spend a decent amount of money restocking those.

I'm kind of leading towards New York at the moment because it's the best target for their G-force fleet (since they can't move the Dobday from West Arctic to Europe). The only problem is, we could possibly be sieged.

Belfast seems the safer option with Europe's patrols and all but I don't want to give them New York.

Let me know what you think.

As for the 42nd, I think you should definitely sit tight in South Africa for the time being and let our PC's repair. You could maybe use the NPC forces to hit random patrols that could be easily killed to further hurt the Zeek side RP.

This forces the Zeeks to come to you, most likely the SS fleet, but if you save your money and spend it on MSM should they come we could probably whip 'em pretty good.

@oklahoma Comment:
I was like 8 minutes late on the day of the email sending it in, so I don't think my order counted.

Next thought:
Maybe you should move to Belfast, the next attack for "Major Event" credit I think would take place in Belfast according to the timeline of events. This means that perhaps we should consider moving there as that might be their next target as well. For a quick repair move to our existing base in the West Arctic instead. This also will provide means for you to purchase stuff if need be. It also is within quick movement range of both New York and Belfast in case we need to move to aid them.

Well if the weather is poor, I think you could absolutely hold it quite fine, we should take that into consideration. You also have people with Arctic refits, that should be a good option as well.

We should seriously consider the possibility of attacking Alexandria in the near future, like early next week.

Both our fleets could move in simultaneously and if we got help from Sakura and the AU it would be fairly easy I think.

Even if it means we lose Belfast, I think controlling North Africa is far more advantageous geographically than controlling Europe. It would also really cut off South Africa.

I'm going to have the 87th move to Europe today to keep our options open. I assume you will hold position and repair your new Gallop. (Congrats, although too bad Threid lost a lot of his MS team...)

We need to decide if we would like to do the Alexandria operation next week or not since the window of opportunity is limited.

If not, I will keep the 87th in a position to protect Belfast and/or counter the Zeon fleet.
You should probably find some way to harass the STFU so they can't take out any more of our Naval Convoys although this is a lot more difficult now that Marcus is active again.

Australia would be a good objective if you want to tackle that.

I agree with you that their objective may be New York and the 87th may head that way. If we can get another Big Tray I may look for an engagement if conditions are favorable (Weather and whatnot).

We'll see what the weekend brings and whether or not Drewsie buys another Big Tray or not.

I think not, since he made an action to join the 87th last week.

I wish he would be more active though.
