Today, this fellow walks in the door, Your recruit mentions to him that he seems to have it in for the government and decides to check his papers. The man looks very scared as he knows about the secret police and how they operate. The recruiter has arranged for him to meet with him this evening.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

Alright, send recruiter WITH CAUTION.

Also, how much would it cost to restock the store?

Send recruiter with explosives under shirt (can we?) if it is a trap he kills himself, but killing a member of the secret police.

(And 1984 were more communists than anything, because Orwell really didnt like Stalin)

The recruiter heads to the hopefuls apartment and engages him in an Interview, he doesn't let on much and allows the other to make advances, never saying anything that could be quoted against him in a court of law, not that it mattered.
 The hopeful has decided to join our organization, he says he knows others that have similar views to him and will do his best to convert them. He will continue to live in his apartment as selling his house and not moving into another would seem suspicious. He has added another £30 a day to income has he is a trained worker.

This.
Keep on doing what we were doing.

Hobo, how are we going to do this? We can't attack the entire government, that's too hard. But we can't attack a small piece, because then they'll just send a bunch of guys after us and kill us.

We need to do it Guerilla-style. Conceal identity, forge IDs, alibis, hit and run attacks on vital infrastructure; Money transports, subways, train stations - Sometimes few have to die for the good of the many.

To put it simply, we need more recruits. We can go from there.

I don't think we can, Diablous. We need some sort of plan. Three thousand loyal recruits are still just going to get gunned down against government troops.

And terrorist bombings are good, but kind of useless. We'd have to do that hundreds of times to do any significant damage, unless we tried to attack the capital or something, in which case, again, government troops keel us.

Get firearms. This probably involves infiltrating a (presumably, in a 1984-esque totalitaristic fascitic setting) very high security weapons factory.
Of course we'll not go around wildly killing people, but we always need to defend ourselves.

Good idea, but I think it's a little ambitious right now...
