You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Oooooh, I missed that about SF. Yeah, let's go with the Osaka plan then, Mumbai won't get hit for at least one more turn, and it's not set up to do a chain reaction.

Anyone else got thoughts?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

From San Francisco you could also build the station in Manila or Hong Kong. Hong Kong would get my vote.

move out and draw fire

Thanks for the signal boost, dcp! (and also thanks for catching my wrong word...spellcheck has some weaknesses).

(Also, hi, this is Raq...it turns out all other social media sites except this one suck, so I thought I'd come check out the revamped b.org)

The medic hitches a ride on a C-17 Globemaster to San Francisco where he cures all the disease. Then he hitches a ride on a cargo ship to Tokyo and takes one of those awesome Japanese trains to Osaka where he knows a guy who can arrange for a research station overnight as long as you don't ask any questions.

Then he draws Sydney (Red) and Buenos Aires (Yellow). Meanwhile, the Blue Fever spreads in Chicago getting serious, but not critical. However, things become critical in Algiers where Zombies are poised to overrun the city.
