We will not give one inch to our historic enemy. They will pay for the humiliations they have caused the Rheinwehr. The Gas Miners Guild shall fall and the rich resources of the Sigma systems shall make Rheinland the dominant house.

Stage One - Direct small scale assaults against the Gas Miners Guild behind enemy lines
Status:
Many succesful raids have been conducted. Over the past months and years there have been heavy firefights between the Rheinwehr and our Gas Miners Guild enemies in the Sigma regions. The murderous Gas Miners Guild uses dishonorable tactics but our heroes often prevail. We will continue this onslaught and weaken our historic foes economically while planning for other stages.

Stage Two - Supporting 3rd Parties
Status:
Only planning stages have been conducted. Objective is to seek out and support any parties willing to sabotage and weaken the Gas Miners Guild, without compromising the integrity of our eventual invasion. We do not want to create the same threat we are extinguishing by creating another strong player.

This phase is currently in soft scouting phases and will coincide with Phase One activities as we identify possible targets for cooperation and support against the Gas Miners Guild.

Stage Three - Direct Invasion
Status:
Planning stages - due to our historical failures that left stains on Rheinwehr's reputation we must tread carefully when it comes to an open invasion of our historic enemy. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Rheinland is unified, Cologne is taken over but we must resist the urge to send our spare warships in an open invasion too soon as the influential Battlegroup Kolleda leadership would have us do.

The silver linings of the devastating civil war are that many in the unified Rheinwehr have become accustomed to guerilla and counter-guerilla tactics, but that on it's own will not be enough. The Gas Miners Guild must be first weakened through our raids, and through Phase 2 politics, careful planning must be engaged so that their shifty tactics that cost us so much during the 80 Year War and that thrust us into the conflict with the Kusari Naval Forces become ineffective.

The might of Rheinland and Rheinwehr will prevail. We will correct the historic injustices and in the end walk away victorious.

But this time we will employ composure, restraint, diligence and fortitude on our path to victory.
