I would like to thank the South African ambassador for confirming we now own the moon. Thank you. We just needed a third party to say it so now it is legal.
You know we're all being assholes right now, trying to talk about "ownership" of the moon in a vacuum. The moon should have its own say in this. @DaMoonRulz

I'd think he would be happy with us. We are the only ones paying it attention right now!

I don't think the fate of the rocket was definitively decided
I'd describe it as "up to personal interpretation"
ok
my personal interpretation is that the virus had mutated inside one of the IRC scientists on the spaceship due to their prolonged exposure, so it got onboard undetected and quickly took over the moonbase. as it turns out, both Chris Pratt and Liiya were genetically immune the whole time, and they stage a daring plan to purge the virus from the moonbase by flushing the hallways with a channeled backdraft of fire. The plan succeeds, but then they are the only two people left on the moon and then they make out maybe? I don't know, that's up to Liiya and Chris Pratt.

My interpretation is that the rocket missed the moon and spent 100 years drifting through the solar system.
Finally, its centennial orbit of the sun intersects Earth's once again, bringing the rocket crashing down right on top of the Don G.S. Galore Memorial Canadian Containment Wall, catastrophically breaching the line and destroying the last bastion of human civilization outside of Madagascar.

Lead troops on one-way mission for victory or death - CHECK
Transform an entire country into rubble and ash - CHECK
I was so happy when the zombies showed up. China had been playing diplomatically all game so far, and it was looking like I'd never get to fight anything. I'm hoping the next game starts in the middle of open warfare, so I can just cut loose from the start.

I don't die. I only transform
Into a zombie, becoming the instrument of your nation's destruction.

We should have attacked all the American forces immediately, Cantide. Put you to real work!
The team for building the next megagame is coming together, btw. Shoot me a PM if you'd like to help.
If turn 1 had ended with us bombing America, I would've been grinning like a kid in a candy store all day. That's one of the few problems with using the real world as the basis for a setting; while it helps ground the players and gives them immediate empathy for the world, that same empathy can keep them from doing things that would be outrageous in real life. If we were instead the fantasy country of Anihc and our star cannons were close enough to strike our biggest rival Acirema, we still probably wouldn't have done it, but we would've at least considered it as a possibility.
Our navy was almost entirely in the Med tbh, we just had a couple frigates blockading Mexico for most of the game and no ships whatsoever in the Pacific
if you'd even passively sailed a couple of ships out to "support the Mexican Quarantine" you'd have had America by the balls

After a few seconds, someone coughed.
"What about Morocco?"
It may have just been wind escaping the corpse, or the rattling of the dead, but every soul in that room could hear a last whisper, as clear as the dead world's skies.

catching up with this game, making my way through the post mortems and such, just wanted to say good job players and hosts all, and that I hope there's a sequel game that takes inspiration from Derelict and has the survivors of the apocalypse contending with the cthulu whales

Russian propaganda at its finest.
Well build a rocket and come up here to see for yourself!
clearly something is amiss on the moon
(China has part of it too)
I'm waiting up here for you to come evict me. Oh wait US doesn't care about space anymore.
Were I you I'd be more concerned about us. That's God's moon, buddy.
Okay cool so we are fine since the down gesture in ancient Rome meant, "Do NOT kill them" The up gesture meant "Yes Kill them"
Oh really?
Something was amiss on the Moon, but we got married in 09 so now she's a Mrs
Oh god, he's waxing punny.

you can't own territory, man
That's just like, your opinion, man.
The opinion of a madman from a nation of madmen.
