Congrats ROK and NATO.

Here's an obscure fact: My first assignment as part of IRON's Diplomatic Corp back in February 2008 (almost a year ago) was to Old Guard.
Heh, Ohgawd now it makes sense, conflict of interest...
Thanks to our allies in Old Guard.

*Still Classified*
Minister Kaine stood in his office, the hours were late and the managerial staff, as well as the senior staff had already left. The phone on his desk began to ring. He lifted it from its cradle, "Hello?".
"Sir, the agenda eleven facility alpha has been completed, daily activities in its district recommence tomorrow, staff has already been chosen, transported and are now being housed in the facility. We await your inspection."

OOC: The background of the avy is from umbrella yes, the symbol is my own personal thing. I made the entirety of it from scratch in photoshop though. And yeah the umbrella bunker concept is probably a good comparison but I didn't directly pull it from there. I guess the purposes are kind of similar though, but I don't intend to go as far out there as they did in terms of the weapons they produced. This will be pretty mainstream for the most part.

*Classified Phone Log*
Vladimir Kaine: Hello?
Ministry Official: Hello Sir.
Vladimir Kaine: Can I help you?
Ministry Official: I simply wanted to inform you that Agenda Eleven construction sites have been seized in New Geneva, and and the funding is in its proper location.

*Still Classified*
Minister Kaine stood over the set of building plans for the new facility he was thoroughly pleased with them. While the construction would take sometime it could be done with relative secrecy, and with great effectiveness. New Geneva like New Zurich was a dome city also divided into enclosed districts. This district was a recent addition and had a relatively small populous which would be evacuated under a partially true pretense. After which the building of a new bunker would begin. The bunker itself would sit a quarter of a mile below the surface encased in granite and surrounded by a membrane like material which would be capable of absorbing the powerful shock waves of both natural and man made events. Between it and the surface would be four layers of reinforced concrete. Each level would act like a net slowing down anything passing through them, so in the event of even the most advanced bunker busting bomb being employed to take out the facility the weapon might penetrate through the first two or layers but would eventually be halted by at the third or fourth. The facility itself would have proximity censors to detect objects through out the ground allowing it to detect potential sub-surface threats from far off. Finally the elevator shaft which led down to the facility would be segmented between levels of reinforced concrete to ensure that there could be no clear shot from the surface down to the facility.
The Facility would be supported by by the energy produced by New Geneva's Fusion core but would also have a back up geothermal system in the event of failure. The facility would furthermore be able to support the bulk of the military's research in regards to high-tech weaponry and would be able to support a large staff of scientists as well as protective forces for years at a time. Meanwhile this entire project would look like the simple needs of an expanding city, and considering the fact they were also building a large hospital in the district medical and chemical supplies would be extremely easy to justify. Finally the fact that the city was domed meant total security from space based or aerial based intelligence. "This will be my pet project" he thought to himself marveling at all the work that could be done in such a place. It would be a long build but the rewards would be well worth it.

This is unfortunate indeed.

OOC: Baron this is your proposition I think its you who needs to prove its functionality. You can't expect us to accept something with such a powerful effect on faith; especially when the truth of it is not intuitive. Some RP's like bombers, or a new type of missile or a man made island we know are simply possible. This however already has some serious questions raised against it, for example the amount of cobalt needed, or the fact that the jet stream doesn't extend down to the southern hemisphere and the fact that the oceans would delude and absorb much of the radiation leaving little to cause damage. Not to mention the obvious "infallibility" you have built into it or at least have attempted to build into it leaves us feeling that we have some how been cheated. I guess my real problem with it is that you didn't even spend that much time on it. If you had spent say a month RPing it; I would probably be defending you right now, but you essentially spent two days and in three posts built an invincibility mode into the game. And for the relative power you are getting out of it, I think that's simply unproportional. To be honest I am trying to have an open mind here, and I think its more than a fair request for us to ask you to prove it before this kind of power is recognized. Even then though you can't expect us to let you clarify that you built in some special defense mechanism that prevents every little loop hole or way around it. That's just silly.

*An Internal Classified set of cables Read*
To: The Office of the Imperial RegentFrom: The Office of the Minister of Defense
START
Considering the state of the world, I advise that we establish a research and development project designed to create what might be referred to as controversial weapons. It is in my opinion that the nuclear class weapons that we already possess so many of are less efficient, and less effective than the possible alternatives. I recommend we start looking into Biological, and more advanced forms of Chemical weapons. Such weapons would leave a nation’s infrastructure intact, while weakening its manpower, and in some cases eliminating its human populace allowing us to move in and lay claim to what remains.

I concur with your analysis, and would be willing to authorize such a project. What is needed?

Our scientists simply need funding, and secure work space. Considering what I have shown you so far is not illegal, I will expect you do not wish to know the exact details of what we have in mind. This will allow you to maintain a level of plausible deniability.

To: Office of the Minister of Finance & The Office of the Minister of Internal SecuritySTART
I am authorizing what shall be deemed Agenda Eleven, the exact funding and requisition specs are included in the enclosed documents. This will require the seizure of certain facilities in New Geneva, as well as the creation of a large slush fund for the purposes of the Ministry of Defense who will be managing the project. Ensure that you mask the purpose of these funds, make them seem innocuous. And ensure that the seizures look like normal banking foreclosures or something of that sort.

OOC: LOL I probably should have put something for that... (The Short Version: Wighton granted its north African territory to me as an antonymous region a few days ago. I declared it independent and created "The Imperium".)
