It’s always good to have a plan, I suppose.

Roger: Jacob, please tell me you have a plan.
Jacob: I do. We go back and throw ourselves on Abhik's mercy. Then we help defend the base from the Jian Shi.
Zoey: No way. Let the zombies have them.
Jacob: Abhik has the only cure for Fumiaki's plague...which might kill off the entire world. No matter what happens, that base has to remain standing.

    It’s going to be one of those days, aint it?

    Well. . .the outer wall is still standing. That might be useful, in a “Remember the Alamo” kinda way.

  11. Saint_007 says:

    … dammit.

    So we have an incoming Genocide Men force ready to wipe out the base, running headlong into a Jiang Shi force about to do the same. And our heroes in the middle.
