Done, here we are : mostly bug reports.

Spoiler

So far I only know of two bugs.
One is that the second “hinged” door opens into the wood of the stairs, I would have added a hallway peice but the basement set does not have a hallway piece, in fact it is missing quite a few types of pieces. 
Second the “locked” doors “shift” when you open them.

This is because of my limited scripting knowledge, what is happening is that there are two doors, one that is set to require a key and one that is open.
What happens when you “unlock” the door is that the locked door is disabled, leaving only the open door. 
Sadly for some reason stop combat was only working %25 of the time so I had to use a hack to stop the turrets.
This means that if you kill the two console room turrets and then “deactivate” them from the terminal they will re-spawn.

Data protected, please advise !

Priority :
References:
I have added a number of references to the story. 
The largest one being Hiaso’s name, the silo’s number and the rocket’s target, all of which are references to the nanking massacre.
Next is Lennie, his name is a refrence to “Of Mice and Men”, his father “Frank G” is the Frank G from Puce Moose’s series of mods. 

The model in Hiaso’s room is reference to Gundam Seed Destinay’s Freedom gundam.

So, is everyone dead?
Of all the characters mentioned in A Reasoned Argument only two were not killed, one of them being the second chinese soldier.

I left the second soldier alive so that if I ever felt like it I could write a sequal.

The other is Frank G (Lennie’s father), Frank is really Puce Moose’s character so you will be able to learn more about him by playing Puce Moose’s current and future mods.

So what happened?
I realize that I am really not the best story teller, I’m novice at best.

As such there might have been parts of the story in my head that never made it into the story. Just for clarity here is a quick rundown on what happened on the day the world ended.

The silo receives commands to launch.

Hisao decides not to launch the nuke on Nanking and instead causes the silo’s defense system to kill everyone in the room.

The first chinese soldier comes to inspect the silo, he acts rashly and would have been killed if it was not for Hisao’s turning off the upper defense system.

When he enters the silo room though(The doors had not been locked) he is taken by surpize by the defense system and hides behind the computer console.

From the computer he learns what Hisao did and figures out that Hisao is the dead body right next to him.

He then heads to the safe house along with Hisao’s body but since he is wounded he is struggling (The blood you see on the ground in the stairs is Hisaos, if you were paying attention you might have noticed that there is a blood handprint, that is the soldier’s).

He is then confronted with the three locked doors to which he does not have the passwords, at this point he goes a little insane and writes the note

(in blood on the wall, of course. The note is later rewriten and translated by the second soldier.) and proceds to try and dig a grave right then and there.

The second soldier hears the alarms and heads to camp and finds that the alarm is not a false call (He had been shopping in Paradise falls).

From there he enters the silo but by this time the locks have timed out and he has to go find the passwords just like the player.

Since he has the passwords he can get into the safehouse.
He then buries both Hisao and the first chinese soldier.

I had also intended to make he some wiseowl sort of character, partly by having a bunch of books in the safehouse from which he learned perfect english and generaly became really wise.

I never did end up adding the books.

This sort of effects the story between the war and when the player is introduced since I meant for the second soldier to at some point have been goulified and to have done quite a bit of travelling with the story he learned in the silo having affected his outlook on life and others.
