Federal Freedom Fighters

 * Organisation:
 * Group Leader (First-in-Command): Gary Wellington
 * Second-in-Command: Danielle Clover
 * Main Headquarters / Centre of Operation: Flint, MI; some random underground tunnel networks beneath Flint
 * Personnel / Military:
 * Armed Militants: 450 (+90)
 * Unarmed Militants: 255 (+15)
 * Administrators: 15 (0)
 * Educators: 0 (0)
 * Financiers: 70 (+30)
 * Propagandists: 100 (+30)
 * Informers (scouts): 80 (+5)
 * Other Members (with other roles or unassigned): 400 (-10)
 * Total: 2,000 (+800)
 * Statistics:
 * Weapons:
 * 660 firearms, only few of them are modified or came as automatic through smuggling. They are primarily of various make and design too.
 * An unidentified number of homemade molotov cocktails/petrol bombs (but likely less than a thousand)
 * Three successfully made remote bombs (there isn't much resources or things to do here). They are not used for now, but can be done with detonating cars or buildings altogether especially in high-security or guarded locations.
 * An unidentified number of kitchen knives (commonplace in kitchens so they are easy to find) used for melee and close combat.
 * An unidentified number of bows (but likely less than a few dozen) used for ranged archery combat as distraction.
 * Cities: This is for reference and I do these statistics because they help me calculate the final population as of 2008.
 * Flint: 65,000 (50,000 remaining [whites only] + 15,000 Detroit refugees)
 * Detroit (estimated, not final as FFF does not control Detroit): 153,000 (I drew a rudimentary shape of outer Detroit to calculate the population of that area using this as a source. I calculated using a formula that 70% of people from Detroit fled and that Detroit by 1993 was 75% black: 2,045,872 * 0.3 * 0.25)
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Reconnaissance:
 * Lansing, MI: Scouts are sent to that place if it has a similar case to Saginaw.
 * Detroit: (see Bowling for Detroit)
 * Events:
 * Nobody Wanted To Go There, pt. 2: Expansion to the southeast and slowly securing and defending Flint continues. Again, any form of looting and tampering of ATMs and banks, along with any valuables like weapons and resources to make bombs are still being made. As the FFF approaches close towards Detroit (there has to be a limit though), the FFF has to ensure that they can secure Detroit by first accessing the city legally and send secret messages to call for an uprising while encouraging them to join the movement. The stages of acquiring Detroit is split into three:
 * Stage 1 (Q2-Q3 2008): Get close to Detroit as much as possible (after expanding and pushing further to the east), acquire and forge visas to access Detroit as a precaution.
 * Stage 2 (est. Q4 2008): Count the population of what remains of Detroit (since most have fled on 1993), recruit those disgruntled and angered by the Confederacy, which is almost all of them and encourage them into an uprising with the FFF by sending hidden encoded messages.
 * Stage 3 (est. Q1-Q2/Q3 2009): Occupy the rest of the 'insecure' part of eastern Michigan and outer Detroit before moving onto Saginaw and Lansing. Core Detroit would also need to be secured as well, while the Canadian side of the Detroit metropolitan area, Windsor, will not be scouted or occupied since it is controlled by a fascist Canada, not the Confederacy.
 * Bowling for Detroit: The black market is used to acquire visas to access Detroit by legal means, via the dark web with obscure computers in Flint's internet cafe (social media is not the FFF's big deal yet, but the unusual activity might cause some red herrings...) and those who aren't loyal to the Confederacy but are willing to give up them. Accessing Detroit with legal means, especially core Detroit will give the FFF the control of a major (former) city without having thousands of Confederate soldiers crushing a small organisation easily. Thousands are to be recruited into the FFF's cause too, if not, there would be still hundreds that might be still eager. Meanwhile, veiled messages that promote recruitment into the FFF, anti-Confederate sentiment by affirming there are others that hate the regime and the message of liberation are being prepared by informers and propagandists so that these messages are sent in numbers to any residents of outer Detroit after the stockpiling. These aren't necessarily deployed to outer Detroit, but some of the nearby settlements near Detroit have been sent with similar messages.
 * Normalisation and Finance: About six months on, Flint is being normalised but security and control of Flint has been tightened and secured with barricades and few armed militants patrolling the streets in a lookout for Confederate sympathisers and any businesses supporting the cause of the Confederacy. For financial stuff, the FFF will invest in money for munitions and weapons in the black market, but there will be some of it being stored in underground Flint. Apparently, there's also someone on the internet while buying and acquiring visas to access Detroit has also bought about two democratic ROM hacks of Pokemon along the way. (Don't tell anyone this...)
