As far as we know, most of the efforts to get the foundations started haven't gotten under way - we know that a number of players are having their characters start to develop networks to benefit Morningstar, but have only just begun on that path. We'd like to give it some time for this to happen, as there are some steps that need to occur to develop these foundations. While they did get a list of contacts from Gaby and El, we added that some of those contacts wouldn't work out, that there would be stipulations and they may have to start from scratch in certain areas.
re: the safehouse, that's definitely a major error on our parts! We misunderstood what you meant by HQ at the time, and relegated it to a typical safehouse in our minds. We still feel like this should be a long-term goal, getting the more minor safehouses purchased and set up for refugees and even using some of the unused locations for training.
Right now, the goal should be to focus on training the PCs and setting up the network, since Morningstar doesn't emphasize having HQs for safety and security reasons. The other thing is that the three locations that were proposed before were the three remaining businesses that could be safehouses after the desperation of the rescues in the UNA attacks. They were set up and ready to be safehouses, so any new location would need to have the underground safehouse installed after they purchase the location. That's why they were able to be set up and established while the PCs were all out of town: they were already most of the way there. Even in terms of a long-term goal, a theater may be too big for this purpose and for this reason.
We're sorry for the crossed wires, as it turns out they were on our end! Hopefully this clears some things up.
