How she used drugs while being in a space suit will be a great mystery!

She'll have two water canteens ; She could add LSD drips to one and drink from it during her EVA

That's an interesting idea... I'll roll with it! We'll sell it to Karmic, as a sneak power-up for the FTO.

There! Shroom, if you want, you can write something about Miranda's dad raising hell at Comona because some goddamned commie woman thinks his daughter isn't a very good astronaut

Sorry, IRBMs and MRBMs. The IRBMs are SS-[Placeholder](hah!) and the MRBMs are DF-25s.

I might want to study some of the DF-25s. The SS-26s I already have samples.

I wouldn't mind buying a few of each type, I'm sure the rocket scientists at Ralson Arms and the OCD would find samples of other people's ingenuity. I don't need many though, since those rockets don't do anything that home-grown products can't already do.

Just throwing this out there, but if Wilkonia, IRT or the rest of MessAmerica needed to have someone intervene in the Caymans, then Alaska could do it (not a part of the Mess, but good trade relations with everyone on the continent except for TX).

Honestly I'd love for Phongn to get back into things because I think the internal dynamics of MESSAmerica could be really interesting: Shinra is sort of the laid back partner to all, TX is the expansionistic kingdom interjecting itself into all sorts of little principalities, Cascadia is Canada but with a bigger navy, Wilkonia is the former empire still trading off of its former glory, the IRT is the ruthlesly consuming corporate state and Alaska is...I' not sure but quite possibly ready to play everyone off one another for a bigger seat at the table.
In other words despite the fact that TX, Shinra and Wilkonia are all on the continent MESS politics won't neccesarily be the center of all disputes as each nation has its own non-MESS interests to protect and frankly the MESS is closer to NATO than the EU.

I could use some hilarity leading up to the flight, and then during the flight itself when Miranda does drugs on her spacewalk

She should cause the craft to have a fatal accident and burn up in reentry or something. Just so that "Shroompard" guy dies a horrible, horrible death.
EDIT: And hey, let's face it, it'll dovetail with her apparent incompetence.
It's either that or I get a sample of HERV (wheee MESS contacts!) and infect him with it. Then put him on the streets of Orena so the public will gruesomly murder him.

That's mostly because I haven't figured it out. My planning went as far as: Duke Ezekiel has proven dangerously instable in the role of Governor, and needs to be removed.

National Pride, continuing the diversification of the FTO combined navy (the theoretical, in case of total war one), and intimidation runs along my nation's coast.

I'm still placing a hit on Shroompard. That man will die, sooner or later.

Openly declaring intent to assassinate a FASTA astronaut on the basis of his name alone is just...wrong, for lack of a better term.

Ah, well, we're certainly in agreement insofar as that's concerned. We'll be patiently waiting for a response from His Imperial Worshipfulness then

I do believe I earlier mentioned that any more Shroom-names would be
cassus belli for war. So let's be happy I'm restraining myself.
