 * Other Ranged Equipment: Roughly 2,500 homemade molotov cocktails/petrol bombs used to target Confederate soldiers and pro-Confederate law enforcement to set them on fire. 35 hunting bows and 3 crossbows are used for distraction.
 * Explosives: 5 successfully made remote bombs
 * Melee: 760 kitchen knives, 120 lumberjack axes (and vice versa), 40 Swiss Army knives, 2 military-styled daggers and 20 hunting knives used for melee and close combat.
 * Cities: This is for reference and I do these statistics because they help me calculate the final population as of 2008. I will stop mentioning that there are other Detroit refugees beyond Lansing/Grand Rapids, MI and Toledo, OH. They get sparse later on so no point.
 * Flint: 65,000 (50,000 [whites] + 15,000 Detroit refugees)
 * Detroit: 148,000 (2,045,872 [outer suburbs] * 0.3 [remainder] * 0.25 [white percentage])
 * Ann Arbor (est.): 107,000 (80,000 [whites] + 24,000 Detroit refugees + 3,000 Asians, since they are fully segregated but slowly reduced by relocation 1990 census says 7.7% were Asian if we go OTL)
 * Saginaw (est., not final): 66,000 (24,000 [whites] + 38,000 Detroit refugees)
 * Diplomacy:
 * Sons of Liberty: An alliance is secured, but that's about it aside from losing three informers permanently, which is refilled almost instantly.
 * Reconnaissance:
 * Lansing: (see also State of Michigan)  30 informers are sent to Lansing to sow dissident before the FFF arrives at Lansing. They also send propaganda messages to not trust the Confederacy and that the FFF will eventually come to liberate the state of Michigan. Since it is more heavily secure and guarded than Detroit or Ann Arbor, it is more likely that they'll fail.
 * State of Michigan: Informers are sent through Michigan in dozens (roughly 80) to spy on Confederate politicians of Michigan, especially those in Lansing. They are to be plainclothed but watch closely around the scene. Information related to their activities are to be recorded down by radio. Stealing documents is also a top priority, although they do not have a lot of fancy technology (technology of the 2000s isn't like the 2010s although they are still quite decent) or any form of access, anything that could be important should be obtained even by the most mundane method.
 * Operations:
 * Acquisition of Detroit (Q2 2008 - Q1 2009):
 * 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. (Successful)
 * Stage 2 (Q4 2008): Count the population of what remains of Detroit (since most have fled on 1993), recruit those disgruntled and angered by the Confederacy into the FFF. Exploration of Core Detroit will be done by select few militants with gas masks before moving forward in securing Detroit's surroindings. (Successful)
 * Stage 3 (Q1 2009): Occupy the rest of the 'insecure' part of eastern Michigan and outer Detroit before moving onto Saginaw, Ann Arbor and Lansing. Core Detroit would also need to be secured as well by occupying all the outer suburbs of Detroit. The Canadian side of the Detroit metropolitan area, Windsor, will not be scouted or occupied since it is controlled by fascist Canada (not a top priority of the FFF's interests), not the Confederacy. (In Progress)
 * Westward Plans (Q1 2009 - Q3 2009/Q1 2010):
 * Stage 1 (Q1 2009 - Q2 2009): Push for Saginaw and Bay City, seizing them at will, along with the sparsely populated areas of  east Michigan. Infiltration and propaganda letters are also being sent to Saginaw and Lansing too to spread anger and hate for the Confederacy, convincing them to prepare at least for the inevitable. Michigan politicians that are loyal to the Confederacy have their bank accounts and information compromised and to be exposed to the public. (In Progress)
 * Stage 2 (est. Q3 2009 - Q4 2009): Lansing is directly targeted. For other places like Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, more propaganda letters are to be sent there too to convince the same message of hate for the Confederacy. The aim is to ensure that the capital of Michigan falls and that with the occupation of Lansing, the FFF is to make a speech to all people of Michigan to rise up to the public. Exposing Confederate politicians of Michigan is also to be made around that time. (Planned)
 * Stage 3 (est. Q4 2009 - Q1/Q2 2010): Literally "all hell breaks loose". Michigan (except Upper Peninsula) is seized completely through force. At this point, the secondary goal of taking Toledo, OH and other state towns and cities (esp. Chicago) would be staged, but no formal plan is done yet. (Planned)
 * Events:
 * Annexing Ann Arbor: After most of Detroit, including core Detroit to the hands of the FFF at the end of the year, the next phase is to take the rest of Detroit's outer suburbs and occupying Ann Arbor. Hundreds of Detroit rebels have joined the cause of the FFF to liberate the rest of Michigan. It is assumed that Ann Arbor is not protected as it is in Toledo, OH and Lansing, given that the place is close to Detroit in proximity and that the city is filled with a lot of Detroit refugees, who wanted to make a stop at the nearest city not touched by nuclear weaponry. Thus, security and Confederate patrols are slightly identical to the one in Detroit, but slightly better than the ones and without the guards protecting core Detroit from anyone else. So for the first quarter of 2009, the city of Ann Arbor is to be secured with few hundred numbers.
 * No More Restrictions in Core Detroit!: On 5th January 2009 effective immediately, Gary Wellington arrived at outer Detroit and declared that the ruins of Detroit is free to access without any permits from anyone. The only thing they need are gas masks. Moreover, conditions in outer Detroit have improved over the first quarter, but no large-scale effort is done yet.
 * Where to Invade Next, pt. 1: The Westward Plans are now being implemented. Slightly more than half of the militia that were in Detroit were reallocated to take on Saginaw, since Ann Arbor is expected to fall without any difficulties, except for some patrols and local police loyal to the Confederacy. Saginaw according to previous intel, is more secure than say Flint. More militants, armed with firearms and a lot of molotov cocktails are being issued to there. It is a priority to take down Saginaw before using Saginaw itself, Flint and Ann Arbor to make a full assault on the city of Lansing and then the rest of Michigan. The secondary goal of taking over Toledo, OH is made by some groups of militants headed towards Ann Arbor on February. However, they were ordered not to directly attack it, rather approach the place as close as possible then settle in with tents. Until further notice (with larger numbers and thus have the capacity to look on multiple fronts), this will serve as a place to plot a future assault on the city that wants to be reincarnated as Detroit.
 * Impending Doom for Sympathisers: Cyberoperatives of the FFF are asked to hack into bank accounts of multiple Confederate politicians based in Michigan. Cyberoperatives and informers are also being told to also 'explain' (an euphemism for expose) high-ranking officials in Michigan, with attempts of acquiring personal information and/or their role being made to acquire even at least the basic barebones of these politicians' roles of the Confederate system. No sensitive information is to be released until further notice, even if they are gathered. For politicians' own family who oppose the Confederacy, anything related to them should be redacted for their privacy (unless the person is obvious that they sympathise with them, otherwise safely assume they were not) - the only thing it needs is the politician itself. If hacking fails for their bank accounts or if some of their information is not sufficient enough from informers to find personal information online, it should be repeated multiple times (even to the next turn) until satisfactory or is called off. [mod response required]
 * The Role of a Mayor, pt. 2: A year on, the FFF appoints the first post-Confederate mayor of Flint, with a goal of making life for 'non-Aryans' to have better lives. Already a year on, those who weren't English or German, or at least look like an Aryan to the Confederates, were feeling safer than to live with fear of death or be attacked upon. For 2009, the aim of being a mayor at least, is to create community programs that ​​​​​​would bring people together at least bimonthly, with their opinions being talked and expressed. They are later to fund other projects too (these probably won't come until the later months of 2009 and 2010), such as making any impoverished district redeveloped or tweaked so that they were less harsh.
 * Finance (repeat excerpt from previous turns): 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. For budgeting, 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.
