:: Prologue ::

Following the end of the war between the Federal Republik of Rheinland and the Republic of Liberty, Rheinland has freed aproximately 1/5 of its remaining fleet might from the battlefield. The Altenburg Fleet, currently severely damaged and outclassed by the Red Hessian Army, requires relief reinforcements in order to hold Dresden. The revolutionaries, acknowledging this, have prepared another push to take the very little space belonging to the Military that remains before they can begin a deadly push in New Berlin.

The Rheinland Militär is prepared for this eventuality and has movilized, under command of its new Admiral, Driedrik Sterr, the remaining operative assets of the Westfalen fleet. Anna Heinrich, leader of the Red Hessian Army, realizes that, while taking full control of Dresden would be a crippling blow to the Republik and to the Militär's already low morale, it won't be easy task. The fact that the Admiral and hero of war Driedrik Sterr arrived to the battlefield to lead from the front without apparent reinforcements has made her paranoid to the point of splitting the Dresden Fleet in two, having one half to keep the Militär sorrounded while the skirmishes continue, and the other half to protect Vogtland, one of the most important centers of operation of the Red Hessian Army.

As Anna Heinrich readies her most trusted men to take the field and finish off the careless Admiral, a creeping shadow of overwhelming rage patiently makes its way towards the most important front for both factions. She can see one of Sterr's hands, but where is the other one?

:: The battle for Dresden ::

A grand total of 45 volunteers joined the Rheinland admiral in what could be their last mission. The finnest men the country had to offer formed part of a plan so ambitious that should it work, the Militär would deal a decisive blow to the Red Hessian Army. Through gossip and intentional leaks, Anna Heinrich was informed that a military force would be on patrol near Bautzen Station, lead by admiral Driedrik. Realizing the great opportunity that was at hand, she sent her most trusted henchmen to put an end to Sterr.

On the day and at the hour expected, the military was ambushed. Faced with overwhelming odds and fighting the best pilots amongst the revolutionaries, the admiral's escorts yet didn't give a single inch up to the enemy, and, for each corageous Rheinland soldier that died that day, they paid with blood. Completely overpowered and outclassed, after forty five minutes of fighting relentlessly, Driedrik Sterr ordered full retreat to Battleship Altenburg.

Taking advantage, the Red Hessian Army marched in order to finish off the badly damaged battleship, for it was the only thing standing between New Berlin and the revolution. Or so they thought. Several dozens of warships, aproximately half of the revolutionaries' fleet might in the system, charged straight towards the Altenburg. Empowered by their recent victory, to achieve complete control of Dresden was only logical. From his heavily damaged Wraith, Driedrik Sterr contemplated their move. Below his unperturbed expression, cold rage boiled as lava.

In the subsecuent hours, for each destroyed asset of the Rheinland Militär, a warship of the Red Hessians Army turned to dust. For each man, an entire crew.

When the fleet was almost in range of the Altenburg, a single voice cracked through the comm channels of every true soldier of Rheinland, and so, the Rheinland Militär's left hand came to light. Two hundred bombers lead by the suicidal men of the Omicronkorps and composed of the most veteran pilots of the Liberty war sorrounded the capital ships and began the bomdardement. With their lighter ships damaged or engaged with the defenders of the Altenburg, the battle was decided. Having cruised for several hours hundreds of kilometers above the enemy radars, the bomber squadrons were untouched. Despite the Red Hessian Army's quick retreat, dozens of their assets were destroyed or heavily damaged.

Thirty minutes after the real battle started, the first Rheinland cruiser jumped through New Berlin.

The combination of developments in all events will be compiled in a single thread after all 3 events are over with.
