Chapter Questions

I've asked around and it seems I am not the only one that's unclear on what is known ic.

How much of the below do our charries already know and how did they learn about it? Will the newspaper headlines at the bank and the rumours in the clubs be updated to include information as well?
Summary
After a well known progressive vigilante group leaked government emails recently, one email in particular stood out. Project Revital. A name they are giving to worldwide efforts to find a so-called "cure" for vampirism.

If accounts are to be believed, this research has already entered final testing phases, and is rumoured to actually work. What's more, the cure is being developed right outside of the city of Harper Rock, in a military facility called CFB Longslade located to the east of the city, along the river.

Just hours after this news leaked, dozens of angry vampires descended on the facility in an attempt to break in and destroy this research. The military are fighting back, calling in soldiers from nearby areas, but the place has become a warzone. Many vampires do not, it would seem, believe they require a cure, and do not trust the governments of the world to use this responsibly.

An unprecedented emergency call has gone out to anyone willing to help protect the base, and the Canadian government is enlisting a militia of supernaturals and humans alike in an effort to hold off the assault long enough for backup to arrive so that they can safely extract all of the cure research before it's too late.

This chapter will last a maximum of two months. Will you join in the assault of the facility, hoping to destroy or even steal the cure? Or will you rush to the aid of the military personnel, protecting the research in the name of progress, freedom, and peace between races? Or perhaps you'll simply take advantage of the chaos for your own ends?

It's international news that those leaks talked about a cure for vampirism being worked on at the facility in question, and it's also huge news that the base is under attack by "terrorists".

I'll add it to the newspapers, just so people are clear.

Thank you!!! :) <3

and new question
I see that the email fragments have a value that differs, which would promote selling them. Is there any reason to NOT sell them?

Technically you could duplicate the files anyway, so you could roleplay still having copies of the file once you've sold them.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but...

I was able to get my Wraith to join the militia (which did NOT make Digo part of the militia). I then promptly sent the Wraith to Floor 9 to get a list of all the PCs who are fighting for the cure. Now I know who to target back on Floor G.

I'm going to withhold using this info ICly until we confirm that this is a legit strategy. It seems bogus that a thrall should be able to get that list without any cost. I think the list is so that the "Cure" team can coordinate... not so I can sneak behind enemy lines and know precisely who to target.

Thoughts?

I vote for it being legit... we can send wraiths to the top floors in a raid to do intell, why not in a chapter bldg?

Eh, I vote against only because it's a chapter. I think there should be some form of risk and such.
