quick money would be nice, though, we can surely need it. But perhaps we can combine the talks, in that we at the same time arrange something for the next tech. If we get their money, we can start researching again next turn or so (not at 100%), which should end both of us at the same time.
Battle report: if you omit our information (the table with our unit count), and perhaps combine the 2 fleet (so only say we're bringing 55 M, 70 T, 10 S, 4 W, 3 E, 4 MI, 22 I, not where everything is located), I think it's fine. Even in case they decide to cross us, Lego won't be really helped with this... as long as they don't guess where our M are, it's cool.

payment in installments... for me it depends on what they mean by that. GoW doing research, while we have to wait for our money is unacceptable to me. We need the cash, probably more than they do (although they want to upgrade their infs as well). Seeing our economy, I think GoW can earn the gold in 3 turns, so if they propose something like 5 turns or so, no deal. If they want to pay us in 3 turns, it's okay by me.
CH, maybe explain this to them: if they continue researching, while we are running 100% gold, it is not fair to us. So the moment they are running 100% cash and siphon their 'extra' cash to us, we can do it in installments.
Also, no need to mention this to them, but I wouldn't mind if we take another turn negotiating this. If they are able to upgrade all their infs on D-day (they could take a harbor city with a barracks intact), we would feel the brunt of the Lego counter attack. Especially as we don't have the funds to upgrade everything we land. So let them be 1 turn behind us, please.
On another note: we are giving all information collected to GoW, so would it be possible to receive the screenshots from the investigations ND took? They might be outdated, but could give us some clues to what is happening (especially the gold situation)

There are a couple of strange things here. The 2/4 inf is something that is bothering me. Okay, let's say there are 20 cavs present, why only one inf? If Lego counted, they must have known that in principle, Jackons could be under attack from GoW last turn. Unless, of course, they've got a sub tailing the GoW stack, and it was out of reach (not so unlikely).
It could be a sign that while Lego spotted our S stack last turn, they didn't know where our N stack was, and were protecting most of their coast with infs. But even then, there aren't that many spots which we could have attacked.
Something else which is a bit fishy: how does GoW know that there are 2 BBs in Jackson? The might have been there a couple of turns ago, but why say they are there know? Have they guarded all outgoing routes, and haven't seen them leave? It's possible, but the pic doesn't suggest that.
And a last point: they don't really have a fork on Dye fields and Jackson. Sure, marines can attack both cities, but the position they are currently in makes it only possible to unload troops in Dye fields with movement remaining. Not in Jackson... transports can't enter the city. I would have left a couple of transports, even if they were only empty, within reach of Jackson to leave a chaining threat. Lego will suspect that Dye fields is the target.

Ok, I just want to ask this now: what if GoW has left enough TR to chain all of their units back to their homeland, switch them to our coast, load to new transports, and then invade us? It would garrentee them the perfect oppurtunity no matter what any team did. If we invade Lego, and take their FP, then they don't have to do anything else to harm lego, since Lego will effectively be out of the space race immediately. They could chain all of their units back over to us, and hit us, taking us out of the game as well. The game would belong to either GoW or ND.
It's what I would do. Not easy to pull off or Conceal, but the new patch of GoW cities (the southern lot) could contain TR, correct? And arn't they within reach of RP? And Are the RP cities completely empty?.
Just a rather pessimistic PoV Not likely, but still possible
