SUBJECT: First Armada is ready

Vice Admiral,

The First Armada will be ready to join operation PESTICIDE under your command. Our logistical vessels led by the PEGASUS flagship the Astrosailor have been filtering and arresting Insurgents alongside building up supplies for the operation that will secure the planet aboard Harrisburg station under the guise of humanitarian assistance for weeks now.

All is ready to get the increasingly lawless system under control.

Blake Wayne Van Leer - Admiral - 1st Armada

RECIPIENT: High Congress of Liberty, Vice Admiral Hamish, Alma Battlegroup
SUBJECT: Heavy escalation

Vice Admiral, dignitaries of the High Congress.

It would appear the High Congress was right to authorize action. It is our estimate that this routine Erie operation will turn into a heavy battle. Through visual evidence and flushing them out on the communication channel we have already counted 5 Fearless Cruisers being in or on their way to Pennsylvania, and the number keeps rising. It is clear this is not anymore an internal matter of Liberty and Pennsylvania - powerful foreign influence is at play and seems to be descending onto our House. By the time Alma Battlegroup arrives and Operation Pesticide commences, we might be facing an entire fleet of heavily armed cruisers of non-Liberty origin. We advise extreme caution!

God speed to us all,

Blake Wayne Van Leer - Admiral - 1st Armada
