Bonjour, monseiur or madmouiselle (who's listening to me, that could a secretary -, Adelaide mutters something about bureaucracy, - this is Adelaide Rolen, of the Gallic Metal Service. Currently.. - She coughs lightly. - ...I'm responsible for contracts and contacts with other Gallic groups. So far, as you know, we're civilians under protection of the Crown.
Unfortunately, recent attacks on our convoys by the Unione Course worried our Board of Directors highly. I won't remind you about the Maquis terrorists, as well as civil war through all our country! As we do care about safety of our employees, we'd like to provide them with high-level security.
Oui, I know, the Navy is able to defend us, but sometimes while Navy is busy about the Council, the Maquis may blow up our ships using their scrap-gunships. That's why I'd like to ask you for few "Cougar" fighters, to provide us with strong enough private security. Of course, those fighters won't ever be used against King's will, and we'll hire the best people to pilot them, who've proven themselves as good pilots and good Royalists. I, myself, wish to fly such beauty, but I haven't got many chances to fly space ship yet, ha!

Also, our technology specialists mentioned possibility of using Royal Navy finest weapons, as our weapons simply don't fit the war. I didn't agree, however I decided to ask you if we can obtain few packages of those?

Firstly, let me express my gratitude that the Gallic Metal Service has finally decided to step up and go beyond what is required of them. We look forward to seeing your supply ships do more than just get lost in Council-infested territory.

Now, to your request. We will gladly protect you from wayward Corse, Brigands, terrorists and traitors as you carry supplies vital to the war effort- that is a noble goal. However, our analysts have determined that simply giving you weapons may not be the best way to accomplish this. Rather, they have expressed concern about the ability to properly aim when civilian and military weapons are fired in tandem, a concern further amplified by the inferior piloting skills of civilian pilots. Such weapons are used far more effectively by the forces and ships of the Royal Navy, which bring us to our solution.

We will escort your transports should we have forces to spare, and add our own strength to those of your escort divisions. A handful of our pilots should be more than enough to handle anything that comes against your transports, and should larger warships appear they will be able to summon reinforcements far more swiftly.

However unfortunately, we cannot be everywhere. We grant you use of five (5) Serval Heavy Fighters. You can pick them up from Battleship Guillestre. My friend Colonel Blaise Mersenne, Margrave Dauphine has made the arrangements. You will be responsible for equipping them. If you run out of fighters, you may request more from us, but for now we cannot spare more than just the five. You may make use of our repair staff in the event one is damaged but not destroyed, however. Should you make exceptional use of these fighters we may even allow you full replacements for a selection of pilots, I recommend you make the most of what we give you now.

There are elements within command that would have rather left you to fend for yourselves. Do not disappoint us, and the trust we are placing in you.

For King and Country!

Bonjour, monseiur! Firstly, I'd like to thank you for zhose ships, they're far superior to our civilian ships.
However I've got few problems with pirates in rather...heavy ships. I've not sure where can they get zhose.. 'gunboats'? Well, in short: our ships can't deal with those effectively, while Royal Navy pilots easily wipe them out, without any heavy support. At least, my specialists say "Cougar" series fighter (Is zhat fighter, actually?) should fit out needs.
Oui, and await shipment of Tobacco and finest wine to Languedoc battlegroup soon, I heard it's nearly ended there! Of course, if you don't mind! While we won't transport such...'food' usually, we'll make exlusive surprise for you!
- She blinks. - Au revoir, stay in touch.

Thank you for accepting our judgment. On behalf of our soldiers in Languedoc, I offer my thanks for your support of the war effort.

Further discussion within command has decided to grant you two (2) Cougar bombers under the same provisions as the Servals. As before, use them wisely and we may offer replacements for selected pilots, but we will evaluate the effectiveness of this investment after you have had some time to show us how well you make use of military resources.

We hope you exceed our expectations. Good luck.

For King and Country!

Bonjour again, monseiur! Thank you for granting our request! Cougars are to be picked up at Nevers? Or the same location where Ser-vals are being picked up?
And don't mind my mistakes about ship classes, I'm pretty new to space.
I already contacted few guys from Alesia to get Ser-vals, so I can call them to get Cougars as well! Thanks, cheers!
