> Talk Tanks (Topic?)

Alright damage, report I need to know the extent of the damage to the tanks and the building.

We should be fine due to the Tankery protection.

Also German, we completed the Deliquent side quest, and need to update the freshman

>>32039547
Seconding >>32039601

>>32039547
the current budget amounts listed in the SITUATION and THE SHOP pastebins are different, no idea which is the correct one

> Talk Tanks (Topic?)

You stand up, crossing your arms. “Lisa, be blunt with me. What’s the damage?”

“Well…” Lisa kicks at the ground a bit, hesitant. “Most of our tanks are out for repairs. The T-34 and the Stupa are good, they were at Mr. Mishka’s. The rest though are in need of repairs really quickly and the building… the Hangar’s pretty much done for and the HQ building isn’t looking too good.”

You ask, “How long?”

Lisa knows what you’re asking. “The tanks need at least a week or two.”

“We don’t have a week or two,” you say. “Pravda is literally a week from now. I ain’t raising my voice at you, Lisa but…” You groan. “Goddamn it. Are the repairs at least free?”

“Emergency plans can compensate up to 30,000 Dollars in damages, I’d need to see what we can fix with that,” she says.

“Alright,” you say. Jeez. You even saw the fire on the news overnight. Tankery HQ burns to the ground, tanks inside done for.

As it stands, the actual tanks were towed out, and thank goodness the Skycraft planes weren’t here either, they’re being kept where the abandoned hangar used to be. But damn it, the tanks. This was a pickle for sure.

reverse that morale drop ASAP too

>>32039776
Schedule a proper damage-assessment so we can get things repaired efficiently as quickly as possible.

>>32039788
uhh no we didn't, Schteel said we'd have a chance to do it this thread for free, check the situation pastebin to see their morale, half of our teams crews are less than 20% and the rest are not far behind

>>32039776

>Talk tanks

Where can we get 10+tanks in a hurry?

Call up the Japanese schools, William Adams and Perrine for loaner tanks.

Perhaps we can pay extra for expedited repairs? Maybe Perrine can do it?

>>32039547
> Call Lutz and see if the match can be postponed.

Arson seems a reasonable excuse.

>>32039817
we ain't getting tanks from other people in that time, we gotta repair ours, which should just be cleaning the interiors out and replacing minor damaged components in the engines and electrics and maybe hydraulics

>>32039776
>> Consult the Shop (Specify)

Check on repair times for our tanks, ask if our more technically inclined team members help out, how many tanks could we repair before the match next week? And how much would it need?

If we temporarily stopped upgrading work on the tank that was supposed to be worked on today, how many tanks would be repairable in that time?

Get more info, see that when we gather our girls, we can give them good news to bounce back to.

copy pasta'd because your apparently incapable of reading

>>32039920

If there's no harm in making the phone calls, then we have absolutely no reason not to ask. Simple as that.

Phone calls and repairs are not mutually exclusive.

If we can't repair every tank in time, any tank may be useful. Or it may not, but again there is literally no reason not to ask because it costs you nada.

>>32039920
Which is why I'm suggesting contacting the ITL to see if we can have some time. At the very least it would let them know the situation.

>>32039950
Oh Em Gee, the last two are funny in that they just joined and they are the worst off, as if they were the most attached and lost everything.

>>32039950
I wasn't talking about the morale loss. Read that I was only talking about the Rally.

Also if you actually read the post-thread discussion we get a free morale reversal, if you bothered to stay around then.

>>32039974
read the one above them sitting at -20%...

>>32039975
Do it on Freddy, JUSTICE.

>>32039978
And if you were capable of the most basic forms of comprehension you'd know I know that, I said as fucking much at the beginning of this thread, Schteel said we'd get a chance to reverse the morale for free before it impacted anything.

We didn't actually do it last thread.

Fuck me you're dense.

Going off the tanks we need for the next battle, we need to focus our efforts to get 15 tanks available.

Since the T-34 and the Sturmpanzer were fine, we are left with 13 out of 14 (15 if we include the panther chassis) that we need to work on.

Assuming we attempt Excel Anon's idea of deploying the Combine Japanese Team, we can put them in the Chaffee thats coming in, that reduces the requirement to 12 tanks that we need repaired.

We still have that sunday fundraiser with the Model Shop which should help us gather donations to repair the tanks and restore the clubhouse.

>>32040009
If you continued reading the thread, we'll be able to do so next thread. Also the morale reverse also states that we can reverse any previous morale loss. This is the previous morale loss, stop making a big deal out of it.

Fuck me your an asshole. Who can't even get by one fucking post without fucking insulting someone. Jesus Christ.

>>32040016
>restore the clubhouse.
Fuck that noise.

We don't have the time or money for that shit, and the only reason we needed the Tankery HQ was because Fredendall was a cunt and barred us from using the campus to store our tanks.

That ain't an issue now and I could care less if the tanks sit out in the open if they need to, we need to focus on repairing them and getting them match ready above ALL else.

So, let's set aside all our vacation days, roll up our sleeves and get to work

> Consult the Shop (Specify)

“So, what’s it looking like, Mr. Mishka?”

“Oh, well, I’m looking at all the tanks here and it’s honestly not as bad as you think it might be.”

“How so?”

“Well, most of the internals need replacing. The engines for sure are goners. A few rivets have burst open from the heat, spalled the interiors. Let’s not even get to the armor. But, it’s all fixable, the tanks can definitely be saved.”

“How soon?”

“Well, I’d need to order parts and new engines. That can be anywhere between two days and a week. You could bring down all the King’s horses and all the King’s men, it’s not going to matter shit if the parts replacing them are made of tinfoil and ducttape.”

“Well, how much would it cost?”

“Good question, I’m still calculating things. New parts for all the tanks can be anywhere between fifty and eighty-thousand dollars.”

You nod. Damn it. “Alright. Um, call me later about this, Mr. Mishka. We’ll see you later.”

“Yeah, truly sorry.”

With that, Mr. Mishka hangs up. You look over to see your crews gathering up to you. They all look tired, worn out, and worse of all, beaten.

You sigh. “Morning, everyone.”

Slade says, “Well this fucking sucks.”

“Yeah!” Henrietta. All the crews groan and complain. “What’s the point in having a Tankery team now with no tanks!?”

“Now, guys,” you say. “Listen-“

Barbera says, “We worked with those tanks for weeks and now they’re just gone like that!”

Marina says, “Now, guys. Gertrude has a plan.” She looks at you, hopeful. “You do have a plan right?”

> Pathos
> Ethos
> Logos
> Write in

>>32040038

I'm fairly sure we could get old warehouse space back now since all the class presidents are now on the tankery team anyway.

Regardless, I agree we have neither the time nor the resources to think about the clubhouse.

>>32040033
>If you continued reading the thread, we'll be able to do so next thread
Once again, I did, and I know this, I said as much at the beginning of this one.

>Also the morale reverse also states that we can reverse any previous morale loss. This is the previous morale loss
I fucking know, which is why I want to use it and reverse the morale loss already.

>Fuck me your an asshole. Who can't even get by one fucking post without fucking insulting someone. Jesus Christ.
I acted cordially enough and then you threw words in my mouth that you didn't even bother to read properly. It ain't my fault you're stupid.

>>32040038

>repair clubhouse comes at the very end

Gee its like I make it a priority.

I'm just offering our options for that since others are asking about getting donations for repairs.

>>32040054

Pathos, Trudy's the best at Pathos and it's better to start with an emotional rally anyway

>>32040054
>> Pathos

Yes, yes we have a plan. Not all our tanks were busted and damage to them is lesser than expected but its our girls that we're most worried about. We want to see that strength that tided us through the matches before when things looked grim.

We might not be able to field all the team we could time round, but by god we're still gonna win this thing, as long as we don't lose faith.

>>32040054
>> Pathos

Didn't we get the most fancy and expensive HQ? Why didn't it have fire sprinklers and fire resistant wall, floors?

And thank god no one was inside.

>>32040064
They why the agitation, again I may have gotten a little hasty on the insult and that's my fault, but it seems you and I both know the situation and is nothing to worry much about, we can handle this.

>>32040054
>Pathos.
>Write-in, Tell them they did well in handling the situation

Also thank Marina for the Plane.

>>32040118
>Why didn't it have fire sprinklers and fire resistant wall, floors?
pretty fucking sure it did...

>>32040118

The selection of contractors on an academyship is apparently very limited

>>32040118
It was a tank fuel fire, water wasn't doing shit.

>>32040054
>New parts for all the tanks can be anywhere between fifty and eighty-thousand dollars.”

Thats... actually good. Based off the money we could possibly scrap together:

40k on monday + 10k School Funds + 30k Emergency Funds

We could cover the worst case scenario.

>>32040054
> Start with Logos by telling them that all of the tanks can be saved given hard work and replacement parts.
> Then, shift into Pathos: by giving up, they let all of Freddy's bullshit succeed, and we'll be damned if she gets the last laugh. Add all that everybody did to save the tanks, with a shout out to Aviation.
> If it seems like it's not enough, reveal the truth about why the Tankery team started in the first place, and how far we've come in saving the school.

>>32040197
no it was not, go reread the last thread, the fuel tanks and ammo stores were untouched and the fire was put out with nothing but water

>>32040054
>We do have a plan.

For now we need to raise funds for repairs, which will we do on Sunday, and hopefully today if we ask for donations from the students.

As for parts, we can ask Key,Darjeeling, Ace, and Maho might have some spare parts for tanks since we have similar models and Perrine might have some for those they don't have so I'll try and contact them.

Right now, the time we have here is the most biggest challenge for us right now, but I know we can overcome it.

>>32040197
The amount of people spouting random crap in direct contradiction to the last thread that was fucking yesterday is astonishing.

Please for the love of god go read the archives and stop making a fool of yourself.

>>32040248
She used gasoline for some fuel containers to start the fire though

>>32040251

Asking for possible replacements from the other ships sounds like a decent idea but only if they're not too far away. If it takes a weeks transit, we're still fucked.

Still it couldn't hurt to ask but we should double check with the shop to make sure we don't double up on parts.

>>32040275
Still not a tank fuel fire anon...

The gas from the cans was the accelerant, and once the fire was going in ernest the gas was long burnt off, it was fueled purely by the building

>>32040203
We need to get Mr Mishka ordering parts and fixing the tanks right away, we can pay him when the money comes in, but he needs to start work right the fuck now.

>>32040268
Take your own advice, freddy had a fuel canister when we rolled up.

>>32040305
Express delivery, maybe?

I'm glad we established good relations during our business transactions with them .

>>32040308
I know, just listing probably causes.

What mostly bothers me that our HQ was made mostly of brick and metal, how can something like that catch on fire?

>>32040331

He should probably be able to delay payment for a couple of days, hopefully.

Of course, we can make a down payment first.

>>32040347
Read anon read.

Refer to >>32040308

And actually fucking think, a single can of gas ain't going to burn a building down, its going to start a fire, that fire is not a fuel fire just because fuel was used to ignite it...

>>32040349
it was made to not catch on fire the main danger to are tanks was Fred stealing them

>>32040377
Not that anon but probably she used more then one, we just caught her with the last of what she used.

If not must have doused it with anything she thought would catch on fire, and hit our hanger first

>>32040405
Still ain't a fuel fire.

I bet half the anons in this thread would try putting out an oil fire started by an electrical appliance with water...

>>32040425
I know, I'm just trying to make sense of it all. Probably the structure itself is not damaged but much of the stuff within is destroyed.

> Pathos

You nod, crossing your arms. “I do. Our plan is to bounce back.” You walk over to them, the crowd of crews part ways for you to walk amongst them. “We should remember this, no one was seriously injured, and if anything I think we got off lucky. The ammo didn’t blow, none of the fuel was lost either, and none of our tanks are complete write offs.”

Dory says, “But the team’s fucked.”

You nod. “Maybe we are, but only for today. We’re in a tight spot, I admit, but we won’t let Fredendall or anyone tell us that they’ve won.” You snap your fingers. “Winning isn’t everything, but wanting to win is. Now, many of you have different reasons for wanting to join the team.”

You point to Cathy and her Freshmen. “Cathy. Why did you join?”

They all look at each other, then say, “We wanted to help you, like you helped us.”

You nod, then point to the Rifle team. “Why did you girls join?”

“We thought it looked fun,” says Megan. Dales and her girls nod in agreement with that.

You point to Fairless. “Why did you join?”

The Seniors look at each other, a bit awkwardly. Then Fairless says, “To help the school.”

You nod. “Of course. Now girls, I’m going to be honest with you, this is a tough pickle we are in.” You walk over to a pile of rubble, then stand atop up. Everyone looks at you, a bit hopeful. “Now… I’m not going to preach to you or anything, but I want you all to know this. We are a team. I’m proud that all of you are here with me now. I won’t blame you if you want to leave the team. But… let me just say this.”

All the girls look down, or otherwise look a bit shamed or nervous.

“I want to do Tankery.” You pat Cathy on the shoulder, smiling at her. She smiles back, as do the rest of the Freshmen. You look at everyone else. “I want to do Tankery with all of you.”

…

Janek says, “Ah, hell! We were in from the start! We’ll see to the end!”

“So will we!” says Anna.

Charlotte says, “Us too.”

“Yeah!” Juliette and the Girl Scouts pump their fists in the air. “Count us in!” All the girls start excitedly cheering. They’re all staying. Almost enough to bring a tear to your eye, but now’s not the time to cry just yet. Your crews are all staying with you now for the time being.

You nod and say words of encouragement to each commander and crewman, then move on to Nancy. Nancy says, “Should I call the ITL, have them try and postpone the match?”

You nod. “If you can.” She nods, then pulls out her cellphone and makes the call.

You say, “Nancy, call up any schools nearby. Adams, Christie, Heinlein, anybody to get us some parts.” Nancy nods then starts dialing in on her cellphone. “Lisa, head over to the shop, get some volunteers with you, work on the tanks as much as you can.” She nods then heads off. “Ramirez, I need money and we need it now. Everything helps.” Ramirez nods then runs off.

You sigh, then yawn loudly. “Oh jeez.” You look over at Kitten, who’s fresh from being woken up. “You can go home, Kitten. There’s work needs doing.”

“That’s why I’m staying,” she says. “Else you’ll run into another fire.”

“You’re never going to let me live that down, are you?” you ask playfully.

If you are going to draft a demand letter, let a professional on the ship do it so they can word is properly.

In reality, cases don't settle this fast, but whatever this is fucking pirate law

>>32040942
> Coordinate with Fairless and the Principal.

>>32041155
Well, I guess it depends on how quickly Freddie's folks want it swept under the rug.

>>32041236

Speed is a thing, but realistically, they'd have to find counsel or since they are rich enough, talk to their retainer.

Then they'd have to consult with a criminal lawyer as well about their daughter's criminal liabilities and whether settling civil settlement early would be advantageous.

Then they have to decide the terms of the settlement, and then it's going to be back and forth between our lawyer and their lawyer.

The good thing is that we haven't filed a lawsuit yet so this process can be expedited somewhat with less posturing. But I would still say that it would realistically take more than a week. Probably don't want to count on settlement money before our match to be safe.

“Now, here is what we can do for you,” says Naval Studies Student Lawyer Janie Adams. “We already have an ironclad case against Freddy with her not only burning your tanks and your building, but also of rigging an election, corruption, etcetera. Now, you want to press charges right?”

You arrived at the Admin building on campus where Naval Studies Administration works. The Law firm part of it generally works by United States Admiralty Law when the ship is not on Shore Leave. “Yes,” you say. Kitten sits next to you, dozing off in her chair. Right now, you’re Adams’ office discussing the potentials.

Adams nods, then types something on her laptop. “Alright, alright. Now here’s what’s mostly likely going to happen. Fredendall will get time in the brig until Shore Leave in Virginia whereupon she becomes the State Government’s problem. As for you pressing charges, Fredendall’s family is likely to try and settle out of court. You can certainly try and see how much they pay to get it swept under the rug.”

You say, “Let’s just get her behind bars or out of LGA, I don’t care where she goes. But what matters is that I need money now.”

“Ah…” Adams bites down on her pen, thinking. She says, “That’s a problem. Depending on if they settle out of court, it all depends on when- Look, I’m going to blunt with you. This needs to go through a hefty process which involves a lot of legal mumbo jumbo. It could take anywhere between two weeks to a month to see any cash."

You nod, scratching your chin. “… is there any way to get the money faster?”

Adams puffs her cheeks out, drumming her fingers on the table. “Well… suppose you-“

“I’m not kissing you.”

“Hmph.” She crosses her arms. “Worth a shot.”

Well, I'm not expecting it to be resolved by the end of the week. But it would be nice to at least be compensated for all the money we have to dump into repairing the tanks, as well as replacing our HQ.

>>32041320
The faster it is done the better, Fred had done enough damage and we have the most of the cards so they may want to do this quickly to salvage what little dignity of their name and daughter they have left.

But yeah, thus donations.

You and Kitten stand up. “Thanks, Adams. You’ve been a good help for what it’s worth. I don’t suppose there are no alternatives?”

She shakes her head. “None that are legal. Though, I am a Student Lawyer, there’s a lot about the finer points of Law that I don’t understand.”

“Of course, well, thank you anyway.”

She nods, handing you a business card. “Call me.”

You nod. “Yeah.”

…

“For business matters.”

“Still, call me.” She smiles at you. You shrug then leave the Admin Building with Kitten.

Kitten yawns a bit. “So, how’d it go?”

You shrug. “Could have gone worse.”

“Hey, Principal Tennyson-“

“I know what you’re going to ask and I’m going to tell you right now, I’m working on it. So far I’m working with administration on getting the building rebuilt.”

“What about money?”

“Different story. The Tanks were bought and maintained with club funds which means I can’t compensate it for you. What I can do is try and get everyone to rally around donating money for you. I know the Faculty is rooting for you to win and they’re sitting on piles of money.”

“Well, that’s nice, Principal Tennyson.”

“Of course. I’ll update you see how things go.”

“Cool stuff. Thanks, Principal.”

With that, you also text the Girl Scouts on whether they can support repairs or not. They text back with:

“They only do line purchases. Repairs are something we have to do ourselves. Sorry!”

Well, at least they’re honest.

Time is crucial and Trude seems fine for now, so let's do what we can now

> Head Somewhere Else (The Shop)

You arrive at the shop’s warehouse to see all of your tanks, scorched but not destroyed, sitting in rows as Naval Studies Engineering students, Huxley, Benita, Lisa, and Mr. Mishka work on them. There are even a few other students you don’t recognize wearing khakis you don’t particularly recognize. Who the hell are they-

“Gertrude!” you look over.

Victoria Augustine and friends. They’re greased and dirty all to hell but they look happy to see you. Victoria offers her hands, and you shake it gratefully. “Nice to see you’re not injured or anything.”

“Victoria,” you say. “Jesus. What are you guys doing here?”

Mary Stuart says, “Aye, we done heard off the vine that ye armor done went up in flames ye, so Queen Vicky here had us onna next flight tae LGA wi’ parts and tools an’ other stuff, ken?”

…

Anne Murphy says, “She says we heard what happened so we decided to come and help anyway we can. No team deserves to get knocked out because of a fire.” She tilts her head down the line to reveal Perrine Hobart, also directing some of her students on repairs as well. “Perrine’s here too, fecking bitch has been riding us on proper repairs.”

Victoria nods. “Regardless, we’re here to help you.”

“God, thanks you guys, you shouldn’t have,” you say.

“On the contrary,” says Victoria. “This too is Tankery, Gertrude.”

on an extra note while we work, we could also pass the word out to other students to organize into explorer groups and check the lower decks of the ship for any sort of spare tank parts we might have over looked. rivets, engine blocks, anything tank related could help. let the rest of the student body who isn't in school, raising funds, or directly giving a hand could do this to help.

“Gertrude!” Perrine runs over to you, arms wide. “Hugs!” You decide to let it slide this time and let her take you in a gripping bear hug. “Oh, ma petit ami!”

You nod. “Yeah, yeah. It’s nice to see you, Perrine. You came all this way to help?” She lets you go and grins widely, adjusting her glasses a touch.

“Of course!” she says. “Mind you, I’m here by myself and I’ve brought a good amount of parts for your Shermans and other tanks. Anything else though and I’d have to charge you, and I don’t want to do that after what happened. It’s a deplorable thing!”

“Yeah,” you say. “So, is there anything I can do?”

“Of course!” she says. “We need people to help lower in the new engines. Black Forest Peak actually sent a whole new engine for your King Tiger after they heard what happened, along with some other spare parts. Saunders and St. Gloriana sent things in too.”

Of course, thank you Japanese girls. You walk on over to the King Tiger where the Engine is beginning to be loaded in y crane. Huxley and Benita are overseeing this process.

Huxley looks down at you, curious. “Ah, Gertrude. Bouncing back?”

> Boast – “Like a rubber ball.”

“Sure am, like a rubber ball under thousands of pounds of pressure.”

You climb up onto the top and start helping the engine in via crane. Benita holds the crane in place while you and Huxley steady the engine into place. Slowly, but surely, the gigantic engine is lowered in with a thud as it reaches the bottom. You sigh. “Well, that was easy,” you say.

“Of course,” says Huxley. “But now we have to get the drivetrain working, get all oil and the fuel in, and connect it to the turret traverse. That’s going to take ages.”

You nod. “Neat.”

Huxley nods, then hops into the turret and disappears inside the tank.

You lie back on the floor of the tank, ridges and bumps poking at your back and staining your shirt with grease as you wrench in a bolt or two, with Huxley busy greasing up the turret traverse.

“Jeez!” you say, your face going red with exertion. “How do you do this shit, Huxley?”

“Same way Uncle Mishka does it,” he says. “Quietly.”

Well, no point in arguing that.

“Speaking of which, Gertrude, can I ask you something?”

You nod. “Sure, what is it?”

“What’s with Lisa?” he asks. “Does she have some crush on me or something? One minute Ramirez is telling me she likes me, another minute Lisa’s yelling at me about my latest fuck up.” He rolls his eyes, sighing. “Didn’t particularly mean to look up her skirt anyway.”

“You looked up her skirt?” you ask.

“It was an accident, I was helping her up onto a tank,” he says. “Though, striped panties. What’s the deal with that?” He shakes his head. “Nevermind. What’s Lisa’s angle, Gertrude?”

You shrug, putting on your best smug face and half-lidded eyes that you can at him. “Oh… as a good friend of Lisa’s, I can’t say for sure.”

He stares back down at you, unamused. “Yeah, if you’re trying to tell me something, I’m not getting it. Mind you, I do think Lisa’s pretty cute. If you like the book-ish type.”

“Hey, should I really be here to discuss your taste in women?” You sit up. “Besides, didn’t you have a date with Lisa? Really hit it off with her? In fact, you seem to get into quite a number of interesting situations with her.”

Huxley shrugs. “Eh, to be honest with you, I don’t claim to be good with women. Being here on LGA, I’ve actually gotten a number of love letters and girls coming to my doorstep wanting to ask me out on a date and to be blunt, I never know how to deal with it. It really sucks being the only fertile male their age for miles. I’m sure more confident boys would give their left nut to be in my position but here we are.”

With that, there’s a sharp bang on the turret roof. Benita pops her head in. “Lunch is being served if you want it.”

Everyone settles down on the floor of the warehouse for some pizza ordered in by Mr. Mishka. “You what? Nae fookin’ chips or irn-bru?” says Mary Stuart.

“Oi, have some fecking respect you manky hoor,” says Murphy.

Regardless, it’s time to dig into some pizza. You sit down next to Lisa and Kitten as you start munching down on the food. Everyone chats and talks excitedly. The tanks meanwhile seem to be coming along nicely, and in the back of the warehouse you can even see some spare hulls that Perrine must be working in for some of your more damaged tanks.

Perrine says, “So, did I already tell you guys what I was doing with the O-I?”

Victoria nods. “Yes. Three times.”

“So basically what I was doing-“

“That dinnae we wanna hear it again,” says Stuart.

“Right.” You stuff down a second slice and stand up. “Time to get back to work.”

Mr. Mishka laughs a bit at that. “Punctual, Gertrude. I like that!”

With that, you head on over to the next tank, your Sherman Cupid actually. From what Huxley and Mr. Mishka tell you, all that needs to be done is calibration of the gunsights and replacement of some of the gear sticks for the driver. Simple enough.


You bang your head on the hatch. Damn it, that’s the third time that’s happened.

Kitten pops into the co-driver hatch and sits down in the seat, looking around. “Hey, Trudy.”

“What’s up, Kitten?” you ask as you drive the stick into place.

“Just seeing if you need any help.”

“Yeah, if you could get the .30 into place for me, that’d be great.” With that, Kitten grabs the .30 Caliber machine gun from the back and starts sticking it into the hole.

“So, Trudy.” Kitten looks over at you. “With all that’s happening, you think we can get the tanks ready in time for our match?”

I do see a point though. Take a picture of the tanks as they were before restoration (which has probably already been done for insurance/lawsuit purposes) then take a picture after restoration. It'll remind everyone how they can recover from the darkest of times.

> Boast – “Of course!”

You nod. “Of course, Kitten! If we all do our part, we can have these tanks ready in no time.”

With that, you finish up your Sherman. You pat the side of it, probably not the first time it’s been set on fire.

Mr. Mishka tells you, “Gertrude. Let me be honest with you. Between all the parts Saunders and all the other Japanese teams have sent us, along with the help from Miss Hobart and the William Adams girls, I don’t think we’ll have to charge you anything.”

“Really?” you say.

“Oh, we have a surplus!” says Mr. Mishka. “I must say, it’s a damn miracle that they just came out of the blue to help us like this.”

Kitten says, “Well, you know what they say. Yesterday’s enemy is today’s friend.”

You look over to see the William Adams girls work diligently on replacing the engine for the Churchill, with Perrine overwatching them.

Well, there’s certainly some truth to that.

This.

Also with the insurance, the donations, event for tomorrow, our sponsorship, and the possibility of Tennyson of rebuilding the HQ,

We'll be sitting on some money.

After getting the Brumbar and T-34/57 done, we may have room to upgrade one or two more tanks before the match, or put plenty of add ons

>>32044311
> Get back to work
> Talk with Someone (Perrine)
With all the work Perrine did on the Churchill, both now and back when it was upgraded, the Freshmen (or at least the one who wanted to go to Walter Christie) would be really grateful.

Perrine gets free passes backstage when the Freshman band goes pro.

>>32044377
Seconding this!
Need to know how where our staff is at on their end.

> Get back to work

“Alright, just put that in there.” Benita directs you in replacing the idler wheel for the StuG. “Now, tracks are going to be a bigger issue but I think we can work on that another time.”

You nod. “Alright,” you, Lisa, and Kitten come to stand, then you look at each other. Jesus, all of you are covered in grease.

Benita says, “So far, we’ve got the King Tiger, the Sherman, and the Churchill in play for now. All they need is some minor adjustments but if we work diligently we can probably have all this tanks ready by Tuesday or Wednesday.”

You smile, crossing your arms. “Neat. Maybe I should get the team down here some time, promote solidarity and what now.”

“Of course,” says Benita. She pats you on the back walks off.

You check the time. 5 O’Clock. Jeez. You look over to see Nancy and Ramirez walking in. “Hello, Gertrude!” says Nancy.

“Hey, Nancy.” You gesture over to the tanks. “As you can see, we’ve been busy. How are things on your end?”

Ramirez says, “We’ve been collecting a bit of money. We’ve managed to raise about fifteen-thousand dollars.”

> + 15,000 DOLLARS

Nancy nods. “I’ve been helping her with that. Naval Studies Admin is also funding the rebuild of our Tank Depot with our emergency funding. They say you can cancel that at any time though if you’d like to spend the money elsewhere.”

No rest.
Man, we're gonna be dead on our feet by the end of the session, huh.

>>32044655
> Get back to work

Didn't it cost 20,000 just to build the thing and we got 30,000 worth of insurance right?

Foes that mean we get 10,000 left over?

>>32044724
It cost 40,000

>>32044724
it cost 40k

>>32044655

>>32044655

Let them rebuild it, and a better fire prevention system are we going to get some of that money back or will rebuilding take all out it?

>>32044655

We all going to need some red bulls/monster/rock star/etc soon.

>>32044762
>>32044768
Oh really? Never mind then.

We should send gifts of thanks to them all though

>>32044655
>They say you can cancel that at any time though if you’d like to spend the money elsewhere.
Lets hold off on rebuilding it just now, we can use the warehouses on campus and we don't know what else we need just yet

>>32044843
The warehouse is still used for all the sports teams.

“So, Nancy,” you ask. “Did we get a reply back about postponing the match?”

Nancy says, “As it stands, our deadline for asking for a postponement has already past. We’d need to forfeit if we can’t make it.”

“D’oh,” you say. “Well, we’ve gone through worse I suppose.” You snap your fingers. “Though, if you could prepare some neat little care packages and gifts for the schools that helped us, that would be great!”

Stuart says, “Send us some of them fookin’ red cups!”

“And some cookies while you’re at it!” says Murphy.

Perrine says, “Can I get some Girl Scout Cookies too? It’s been ages and I already piled through all of mine!”

You nod. “Yeah, yeah. We’ll get to it.”

With that, you continue to inspect the finer details of your Sherman. This includes paintwork. You spray on a new emblem along with a fresh olive-drab coat of paint. Old Cupid is already looking good as new. Your stomach growls a little. Already time for dinner.

Considering this time was spent fixing our tanks.

The time for our upgraded T-34 and Stupa was delayed?

You heard them, call the girl scouts and ask if they can send some over

>>32044927

And get them cookies.

seconding >>32044961

we could also send Kitten on a food run

>>32044927
>>32044928
I'm wondering about this? Probably is and it is a shame but I kind of want to know.

So we have our M4A1, the Brumbar, T-34/76 or 57, the Churchill, and the Tiger II.

So 1/3 of our tank force is up and running now.

>>32044928
I ain't concerned as long as we can still use those two tanks even without the upgrades we ordered for them

>>32044927
> Continue working
> Call Someone
order out for dinner. keep working while the food comes.

> Continue working

You quickly text the Girl Scouts to prepare some cookies. Meanwhile, Slade and Dana of the Naval Studies engineering team get sent out on a food run.

Dana said this as she and Slade walked out the door, “Let’s get some Thai food! I like Thai food, I don’t know what it is about Thai that really dances off the tongue and down your gullet. I suppose it’s nothing like a nice spicy bowl of pho either, you ever have pho, Slade? It’s delicious! I used to live next to this nice Vietnamese family and they always made pho or rice curry for me but they were great at ramen too!”

Slade said, “That’s a nice story, boot.”

With that, you get to work adjusting the roadwheels for the Tiger II. It’s busy work yes, and you’re getting dirty and greasy as fuck, but hell you’re not going to rest until this shit is done and over with.

Lisa and Nancy smile at you. “So, Boss!” says Lisa. “Me and Nancy were thinking. About the whole sponsor thing tomorrow.”

You nod. “Sure, what about?”

Nancy says, “A raffle!”

“Cool!” you say, smiling. “I like raffles!”

“To go on a date with you!”

“… except for this one,” you say.

Lisa says, “Oh come on, Boss! Just this once! You don’t have to kiss anybody or nothing, just go, put on a nice smile and look pretty!”

> “Guys, please.”
> “Sure, why not. What’s the worst that could happen?”

It's a non-issue, these kinds of dates aren't expected to go anywhere anyway.

>>32045180
>> “Sure, why not. What’s the worst that could happen?”

>>32045180
>> “Yeah, no.”

I'm sorry, but the whole crazy fanbase bothers me.

>Write In.

A nice ride with us on our tank?

>>32045180
>> “Guys, please.”
With the exasperated sigh of one who knows they have already lost.
