It seems it's necessary for me to directly address you, I am contacting you all about applying upgrades and renovations to the Army's Scan-Surveillance technology. This would be applicable for it's major war units and modular installations in the Omegas and Dresden, such as installations like Wolfsburg, or Vogtland. To our knowledge, you possess the best scanning technology in Sirius, surpassing even that of house intelligence agencies - or at least to our knowledge. The S.O.A will be spearheading the effort, funding will be handled by us directly.

We'd be interested to invest in and develop authentic scan-surveillance hardware to better equip ourselves on our many fronts surrounded by natural barriers that work in part against us. Nebulae and asteroid fields impact our current models to a sometimes costly extent, and we believe you'd be able to help us fix this.

You may already be aware but we are currently engaged in a new front in Omega-3, this has brewed about a serious need for hastily action. We aren't expecting to be shoved in front of your agenda, but time is of the essence. Should you agree to help us, I will relay the comm to the S.O.A Direktor Anna Kreutzer, the S.O.A is a special operations and logistics division of the Army and is well respected among the Volksrevolution. They speak with my support.

Direktor Kreutzer will take over, not in disrespect or to show that I'm unwilling to cooperate. But I am very much needed elsewhere as a result of the recent set of events in Omega-3.

Pardon me if the communication is a bit low-quality, and if my appearance is a bit off. I'm sending this from an uncomfortable setting on the front lines of Omega-5 since Direktor Kreutzer is now facing a Corsair onslaught and you've decided not to take her seriously.

To my knowledge, professor, Hamburg is Rheinland territory. Now, if I'm not mistaken, Lane Hackers field of active operations all around ends at the Rheinland border. What I'm getting at here professor is that what happens in Rheinland, between organizations based in Rheinland - tends to stay in Rheinland and nearly always holds no effect against organizations operate completely outside of it. Unless of course, your collaboration with one of the said groups depends on its well being in Rheinland. But that certainly could not be the case as the Union has several other holdings in Rheinland.

UNLESS, our actions against the Union disturb you. I don't think a respectable individual such as yourself -who is very well knowledgeable of the destructive capability we employ on our enemies- would be intimidated by the Volksrevolution issuing justice for the multiple times the Union has betrayed and thrown our name through the mud. No, that would be ridiculous.

The Volksrevolution has gone to great lengths to stand by those it calls its allies, after all, who are we if not loyal to those we call friends? Though some of them may have been quite clear for some time, the Volksrevolution has never held the diplomatic stances of the Lane Hackers with other entities (including those considered hostile us) against them. It is not our place to press the diplomatic stances of organizations that live quite far from our own territory against them. Your stance with the Union is your own, we have never held it against you despite the multiple times they've betrayed us and aligned themselves with entities considered enemies by both you and I. We expect the same in return, but believe it or not I'm not entirely what the masses claim I am. So perhaps it's best I left you with our side of the situation, we do of course, value the cooperation of the Lane Hackers. It would be shameful to see such a fruitful partnership diminish due to the Union's ability to cry wolf.

Ever since they begun openly cooperating in field operations with the Corsairs against the Volksrevolution -in Dresden (our home) and elsewhere at that- the Union was stripped of any quick chance for re-inclusion into the groups we considered "friends". Would you allow Coalition the same opportunity if they wronged you in your homes? Well, we did - believe it or not. The effort for retaliation against the Union was headed by none other then the underage and former Brigadegenerale Kreutzer, in which the Corsair populous was wiped from one of their major holdings in southern Rheinland. It should've ended there, but we made the mistake of incorporating them into our fold yet again afterwards, foolishly thinking they had learned from their mistakes. After being included in a major operation to Liberate Dresden at the time, the Union disclosed the very plan and its contents to third parties. News quickly circulated to me, Volksrevolution lives were at risk, and we returned the favor yet again for their betrayal. Since then they've sought to call a state of non-aggression to which we accepted for the time being.

So you see, the Union was never an ally of the Volksrevolution, not since their repeated betrayal of our trust. While I would've certainly preferred to be more formal about our real narrative, I and the Volksrevolution do not have the luxury of deciding when, where, and how we want to go about something when we have very real enemies looking to destroy our homes and way of life. The Union deserved far more then what was given, and if it were possible I would have provided them with what we consider a fitting scenario for their betrayal.

We've gone to extreme lengths to ensure the protection of those we call allies. We were flushed into a situation of "betraying" the Bretonian armed forces to defend the IMG. Actions which if I can recall from this very communication, were endorsed by professor Clay. Destroying one of their warships, and employing the work of our most lethal SOA squadron to defend Aland shipyard wave after wave of fleet onslaughts - all under the command of our underage Direktor. The effort may have failed in the end, it's quite difficult for even our most talented squadron to resist an entire house fleet, but the effort was applauded by many of those we call allies and friends.

I have thrown all of this unbiased third party footage disclosed to me onto this transmission because as I said earlier - I do value our cooperation. I have also thrown all of this unbiased third party footage disclosed to me onto this transmission because if you could not gather it from longest voice-message I've ever sent - I've had my fill with the Union and Corsairs. The Corsair collaboration may not hold any significance to you, but it most certainly does to me and my people. So as you look to dismember years of fruitful partner ship on the basis of what the Union considers "betrayal", do take the time to review our case in this conflict. We understand your stance with the Coalition is one that will likely never reach a happy-medium, we respect your decision to oppose them and work with the Union on your terms within your territory. Your stances are your own, please respect ours as well within our territory.

In the event you re-consider your decision. I will re-forward this transmission to Direktor Kreutzer and it will continue as fast as we can. Until then, I have to ensure everything we have built doesn't fall at the hands of these filthy Corsairs.

Incase you were wondering, I'm thirty seven years old. Even if it were an insult, I would appreciate to know I look younger.

I see you've been in contact with the Bretonians, and the Union. While you may believe our norms for trust are out the window, allow me to reassure this is far from the case when it comes to our friends, formal business partners, and allies - as I have made my case on previously.

The information you have received from the Bretonians is both correct and incorrect at the same time. The Non Agression pact and trade embargo made before the events of Gran Canaria and there was no formal treaty. I encourage you to make the very transmission made available to you by the Bretonians, as you will see in that very transmission there were disputes on territory claims that remained unfinished. In fact, perhaps I could send you it myself incase you have not seen it word for word, perks of the position. So you see, it might still jog your conscience a bit, but there is a very real difference between the corporate fueled house of Bretonia - where an alliance would quite literally go against much of what we stand for. And then the Lane Hackers, where both a trade embargo and formal treaty was made. The actions of the Bretonians at Gran Canaria were denounced by myself publicly, if I might add.

But this is all but one giant excuse to you in regards to our actions against the Bretonians just weeks later. As I stressed earlier, Professor, we were forced to choose between a long term ally and business partner (sound familiar to anyone else?) and a house entity representing and acting against everything we have stood for. We stood by our allies and sacrificed lives for them when we knew full what the situation would likely come down to. Have you ever been put in such a position professor? Have you ever been flushed into a position of choosing between the blood of your allies, or an entity you only recently agreed to stop attacking for a single mutual goal? There's of course, no offence meant if you haven't, I'm simply trying to relay our situation a bit better. But as I have stressed before, we have been loyal to our allies and friends in the most dire times of need, we have considered the Lane Hackers as such after years of support. Just as we have for years, we will continue to if you agree to move forward.

If the pitiful comments of the Bretonians, who massacred our friends, massacred civilians on Canaria, killed transports leaving with innocent refugees, who have become the very thing they are fighting. If their comments on our actions truly disturb you more than theirs, well then... I apologize that we needed to smear our image to support one of our most loyal allies in a time of need.

As for the Unioners, you'll be interested to hear that the order to "betray" them at that time and place (and I won't lie, it did not disturb me) came from another ally of ours on site. I can blame the Coalition all I want, but I don't think that would do either of us much good would it? So I'll be straightforward, the Union had what was coming to them - tenfold. If you wish to avoid ending up in a situation like them (which as I've assured you are currently not) I suggest you refrain from doing everything they have done to put themselves at the top of my personal shitlist. You're right, and put bluntly in this regard, I don't care if I appear like a monster for making them all bleed. No one, not you, not Premier Selim, gets to spill my people's blood in my home "alongside" Rheinland's greatest enemy. Backtrack on my trust, betray us again to the same end as before, and then play the victim card when they finally have a taste of what it's like to be on the opposite side. The Union can afford to betray us, collaborate with the Corsair Empire in Rheinland and go against everything they claim to stand for. Yet, when we've had enough of it and choose an opportune time to make them suffer for it, suddenly our image is in question. The more I hear myself talk on this issue, the less remorse I feel. Don't stab us in the back in our home repeatedly and you won't have to worry about anything when you come through our neck of the woods, that's fair enough, no?

Our "reliability" to those who haven't committed atrocities against us and our allies has been spotless. Of course, that would be different if you were conspiring against us, but I don't think that's the case at all - is it?


I don't need you to consider anything along the lines of cooperation with the Corsair Empire against my people, in my home - betrayal. The fact will always remain among that masses that it is, you are the only sympathizer I have heard from for their defeat, Professor. And it is, professor, the Union has claimed that they stand for the people of Rheinland on multiple occasions, they stood with us before they began bending over to the Corsairs. As you've stated as well, their leader even toasts to a movement that will see Rheinland's military might gone within a matter of months.

That being said.

The Union was, in that very transmission I sent earlier, held to the standard that they would cooperate against the Corsair Empire. They accepted, and yet here we are now. The collaboration against the Corsair Empire was less direct, but that was done to ensure the element of surprise in our later operation - which Frei later foiled.

Speaking of which I am most familiar with the man who has set up "important" meetings to which he did not attend. The man who has threatened my people with extermination after selling out plans which he was included in to better his group's image. I am well aware of what Corin Frei is and I have every intention of having him join his dead traitors in Hamburg. I won't make a compromise on this, perhaps the next person in line for leadership won't live up to the actions of such a fool.

I once again, hope you reconsider your decision to the benefit of both our parties.
