Episode 11 Summary

April 27th
-Dutch gets a visit from Gerard, the mobster. He asks Dutch for any information he has about Chris Wall's disappearance. Dutch just tells him that he was knocked off by some civic-minded citizens. Gerard warns him he's sticking around until he figures out the whole truth.
-Lucius visits Eva; he has hired a few dozen mercenaries and brought in some high-quality weapons.
-Anders gets word that the Intel man wants to meet with him and someone wants Ophelia arrested. He brings in Ophelia to resolve this; Mr. Morton, the cousin of the man Ophelia stabbed, wants her arrested for his murder. For now he only has the rumors that his cousin was last seen going into the back room with Ophelia. Anders holds Ophelia for 24 hours while Mr. Morton is told to come back with names of trustworthy people who can confirm his information.
-Anders goes to meet Mr. Emerson, the Intel man. He runs into Thomas Newton on the way out, who tells him the council is meeting in an hour to talk to Cody's prime minister. Emerson tells Anders that in light of the current situation he's made other arrangements for the Intel corporation, through someone's connections in Cody.
-In the middle of the webcam conversation with Cody's prime minister, the connection cuts out at exactly 9am. It appears all the internet lines to Newton have been cut simultaneously.
-Cpt. Sheridan, scouting ahead, finds that the oncoming army is dragging a tank with them. He tries to send a message to Newton at a local town, finds that the lines to Newton are down. He sends a messenger and buys up a bunch of explosives and destroys sections of track in order to slow them down.
-In Newton, about 200 irregulars are mustered for the defense of Newton, and Virgil's band joins up. Meanwhile, Sam Newton sells weapons to the citizenry.
-The council gets word about the tank. Corwin goes to see Sam Newton about his steam engine; a plan is hatched to quickly try to make it functional and to send it down the tracks to destroy the tank.
-A message is sent off to Greer asking for help.

-Dutch watches the mobsters make the rounds, trying to get information.
-Mr. Morton returns to Anders with credible witnesses; Anders decides to launch an investigation. Just then Virgil arrives and tells Anders he's the one who killed the man, but points out that he's too important to Newton's defense to get arrested. Anders tells him he'll hold off on arresting him until the conflict is over.
-Ophelia, now released, gets word that a New Eden force is also on its way, picking up conscripts as it goes.
-A council of war is held in Newton. The plan is to rally around Fort Newton. A messenger arrives with a list of demands from Greer in exchange for help; the council decides to reject it.

April 29th
-Corwin meets with Colonel Washington, who reveals his motivations for joining with New Eden and attacking Newton; he became disillusioned with Greer as they became more and more greedy and less focused on Edenist ideals, and he sees the same thing happening to Newton since William Newton died. He wants to preserve Newton as it was before, not wanting to see the same thing happen as did to Greer, and if that means conquering it so be it. He does not detain Corwin but provides him with a fresh horse to return to Newton.
-Sheridan goes out and looks for the source of the nitrogen. What he finds is an underground military facility. He starts up the emergency generator and finds an armory full of well-preserved pre-cataclysm military hardware. He also finds a nuclear missile; the facility is a mothballed missile silo.
