I must say our propaganda arm very much enjoyed your race!

You seem very well informed about our affairs! You will be I hope glad to know many ex-Council women and men have denounced The Union and The Council's treatcherous leaders and now fight side by side with us under the Maquis banner. Those with honor that is.

When it comes to the little Royalist splinter cells I will level with you - The Front does not take them seriously. We blow them up when some of their scattered units appear in Roussillon, but they seem to be too deranged to be able to run a bath, yet alone any sort of concerted military effort. The Union are our real enemies with actual power, and they are who we focus on. So I unfortunately have to decline your offer to station a permanent and organized garrison in Baffin.

Having said that, The Front has many "old school" core Maquisards. These men and women can be, let's face it, gloriously erratic and they enjoy nothing more than hunting stray Royalist pray for sport. Some would put me into this group as well but I do have other more organized duties to attend to these days to be able to indulge fully.

Rest assured that when I tell them they have some stray isolated Royalists to brutalise (and worse) in your system you can count on their frequent visits, and on their behalf I very much appreciate you waiving your No Fire Zone policy. Don't be alarmed as these are some of our most...enthusiastic...people that can be rough around the edges, but if you knew the Maquis kind all those years back when we were just Council's attack dogs you should not be surpised.


We can talk about further cooperation down the line - The Council's treatchery left us to build our logistics more or less from the ground up, and we are forced to rely on third parties for supplies and materials - but we can talk about that later on if our people enjoy hunting the Royalist stragglers by your side.
