Greetings brother. I contacted you because this conversation is very important. Do you remember our brothers from Liberty? I'll get down to business. As our resources are now focused on activities in Galia and project "Tartarus", we ask you to provide any assistance that Division 9 may require. As far as I know, this group is going to strengthen its ties in Bretonia. This plays into the hands of all of us. Once we are done with Gaul, our priorities will again turn to Bretonnia, and probably to Rheinland. Take care of yourself, brother.

Greetings,
It has been quite a while since our last meeting. I hope the operations in Gallia are going according to our plans. Nevertheless, we have a more important matter to discuss.
While I cannot guarantee that other units in the Armed Forces will offer direct support, those under my direct command will aid the Division 9, when the time is right. However, we have yet to meet with any members of the mentioned Division in or around Bretonia. Consider your request accepted; the Majestic will be moved into the Manchester system to have an easier way of direct communication in case the Division 9 arrives.
Should there be anything else than we can assist with, inform me.
Oliver Myles
Vice Admiral of the Auxiliary
Bretonian Armed Forces, Auxiliary
Much has happened since our last meeting. The Armed Forces units have been busy with a recent fleet restructure, and suffice to say, Bretonia is no longer a place that I and my crew feel safe in.
As they are now pursuing a more aggressive stance towards all non-allied vessel in Bretonian space, I advise to stay clear of the region for the time being, unless escorted by another unit belonging to the Armed Forces or Intelligence Services.
Now, for the main reason I contacted you. As stated beforehand in this message, neither I nor the crew of my warship feel secure in Bretonian space. As we are currently located near Perth Station in the Edinburgh system, we have decided to make an 'escape' and remain hidden in the Arran Ice Cloud. There, we will easily maintain position and have a low risk of getting detected, as the token Armed Forces units in Edinburgh are too streched to organize any kind of search for us.
According to previously-made calculations, supplies are easy to acquire and should it be necessary to make yet another escape, the system of Roussillon lies close-by. Thanks to a Gaian... 'friend'... and to the rest of the Armed Forces, we have enough information regarding the Roussillon and Edinburgh systems to operate freely and launch surprise strikes against those who are travelling nearby.
However there is one danger. The rest of my strike group do not yet follow our ways and may attempt to flee once they realize where we are heading. I believe that if they attempt to run, we will receive support from you and other nearby units, correct?
That is all for now. I will inform you when the operation begins.

Greetings brother. Your news is not the most pleasant, but I'm glad you're still alive. Undoubtedly, the ongoing reforms in BAF will complicate our activities. As for the members of your Striketeam who might oppose... We will take action. Send the least reliable of them aboard my Liner. This can be any reason. The main thing is that they are on board, and then our brothers and sisters will take care of them. However, we are ready to take even more radical measures if required. For example, liquidation of both unreliable and their assets.
Keep your head down and keep contact with everyone except us and our allies to a minimum.

As I have mentioned in the previous communication, we planned to do a relocation of the strike group outside of the reach of the Armed Forces. Using a small, yet important, window of time, we mobilized earlier this day and completed the movement into the Arran Ice Cloud.
While the operation was a success, the battle was ensued was nothing short of a pyrrhic victory. Much of the strike group's fighter wings have been destroyed and the bomber wing has suffered 40% casualties. That is where the 'bad' news stop, however, as marines from the Majestic succesfully took control of the two escorting gunboats, the Moresby and the Vanquisher, both of which have suffered medium amounts of damage, mostly to the engine rooms. I believe those can be repaired very soon as engine parts are easily replaced and much of the damage to the weapon systems is superficial.
For the time being, the remainder of the strike group will await at the selected area in Edinburgh. Should you require assistance, the now-reformed fighter wings can be deployed at any time.
