Office of the Defence Minister

[EmuGod]

Since all the front commanders probably want to get more units in a rush, I figured this thread will allow you to make requests for what I should build for you guys. I'll make a list of what is being built in each city eventually.

[Dr. Nick]

I'd like artillery and machine guns (read: whatever best defence unit is available ). We need to secure a corridor before the British leave, and we'll need artillery the first turns, machine guns from there to consolidate.

[PinkyGen]

I echo El Awrence. Build units that kill Arabs, but work for defense as well.

[POTUS]

I could always use some more forces. Build some troops to defend Jerusalem.

Report of the Chief of Staff, November 1947

To: Defence Minister
CC: Economic Minister

Citing large quantities of funds in the treasure that has been brought about from the donations of Jews around the world supporting our cause, I submit this paper requesting that the following units must be built with urgency for the defence of our God mandated lands. I commend the strenous jobs of our Ministers, and remind them of the need for urgency: our underequipped, ill supplied soldiers are dying for the blessed lands, and it is our job to make their duties at the front as light as possible. I urge you to employ our treasure for the construction of these divisions, many young men remain in their barracks unarmed, though they be keen to fight the infidel Arab who seeks to destroy us.

FOR THE Northern Front:
HAGANAH in Metullah, Kajer Szold, Mishmar Yarden. Rushbuilt soon, please.
WWI ARTILLERY in Nahariyyah, Yehi'am, Haifa

FOR THE Judean Front:
HAGANAH in Degania, Gesher, Beth-Shean, EIN GEV (placing this city under the Judean Front command).
WWI ARTILLERY in Haderah, Netanyah, Petach Tikva

FOR THE South East Front:
WWI ARTILLERY in West Jerusalem (not urgent, but I would very much appreciate it).
HAGANAH in Kfar Etzion, Sedom

FOR THE Sinai Front:
WWI ARTILLERY in Tel Aviv, Ashdod, Gevaram, Eilat
HAGANAH in Tekumah, Nevatim, Revivim,

May God lead us unto the green pastures,

Field Marshal Goldmann

Chief of State, I humbly ask you for taking a look on my report in your tent...

Thank you. I need to revise this, I'll have it back within 24 hours.

Emugod: We should have a talk on MSN later about the rushbuys. Ok?

[Dr. Nick]

You are going to rush buy everything, correct? And incrementally, right?

If I am in the chatroom I use an IRC-client, it's better that way. BUT the thing is that I got Emugod on my MSN list so I can see when he's online, it's much easier for both him and me

[Nilat]

Emugod, check your PM box.

FOR THE DEFENCE, ECONOMIC MINISTERS

I would like defensive units to be built, in places farther from the front, and I wouldn't mind fortifications in cities that will be under heavy attack when the British leave.

In any case, here are the orders:

In the GOLAN, Metullah, Kafer Szold and Mishimar Yarden should RUSHBUY anti aircraft artillery by the end of next turn. Imperative. After that, they will need fortifications before the British leave.

I would much appreciate the construction of artillery in Yehi'am and Nahiriyyah with speed, as the corridor to Tiberias must be opened very soon. AKKO MUST RUSHBUY SOME DEFENSIVE UNITS AT ONCE. Haifa could use another defensive unit, or artillery to enable the swift capture of Tantura.

On the JORDAN, EIN GEV MUST BUILD FORTIFICATIONS at once! Degania should too, as there are already some machine gun brigades there. Gesher and Beth Shean should complete their machine guns soon, and construct fortifications and AA artillery as well.

Haderah, Netanyah and Petach Tikva should complete their defensive units soon, so that artillery may be purchased. The capture of Tantura must be completed soon. Personally, I would like Tel Aviv should rushbuy some defensive unit this turn, as I plan to remove most of the defence units to relieve West Jerusalem next month.

West Jerusalem SHOULD RUSHBUY THIS TURN much needed fortifications. It is my belief that the units present there should hold out another turn or two, and the relief column should arrive quickly. Sedom could use a defensive unit fast. Kfar Etzion looks ok. Ashdod should build us some artillery, as I want to take the offensive into Gaza soon. Eilat needs AA artillery. Soon. And fortifications. Soon. And an airport, in case we need to relieve the inhabitants by air.

[EmuGod]

I almost disregarded everything you said when you used the word "orders" when you said this. Relax, I know what I'm doing in terms of defensive spending, so you will get what you need. AS for rushbuying, that's up to the economic minister.
