Molly Relations with the 13th Fleet.


[color=#666666]Comments

Good day,

Your account of today's events have been noted and passed up the line to the Admiralty and Government.

Whilst we decide on a course of action you are NOT permitted to fire upon Molly IFF'ed vessels unless you or your fleet are fired upon first. This is a delicate matter and shall take time to get to the bottom of these events.

In the mean time, do not hunt them. They fight the Gallics. A Molly who dies fighting the Gallics saves the life of a Bretonian Armed Forces pilot who may have died in his place. Bear this in mind. The enemy of our enemy need not be our friend, but it is also wise to keep a few of the "enemy of our enemy" around. They can be convenient fodder if needed.


Any evidence of this incident should also be sent to myself for viewing.


Signed,
Commodore Bentley S Ashers

Oi there,

Me and the lads was in the bar having a few drinks, a game o'darts and some fun. We been playin' yer transmission o'er and o'er again fer laughs until one o' me boyos realized t'was an open transmission and suggested a reply. Well, we wagered the best of three games to make the reply and if'n it goes through me and my team o'lads gets a case o' whiskey.

Now, as it was that day...the lads and me was takin' a trip past Dublin to New London. We'd encountered a couple of yer 13th ships there, and it turns out that the number was unlucky for them. They'd not say if they knew of ye but the crews fought to the end, I'll give 'em that. Anyway, afterwards we went on a jaunt to Leeds and came across yer ship the Argosux.

One o'the boyos with us remembered that a short while back, this ship the Argosux had come up to Lisburn when an Rheinland Military ship was spying about. Instead of questioning the Rheinlander, this Argosux opened fire on the Molly ships, including a wee little freighter that was a'causing no harm but going on a supply run. So, bein' the curious lot at the time, we decided to have a talk with this Argosux.

Now, this ship wasn't responsive in the least, so we tasked one of the lads to disrupt the cruise engines on the battleshrimp so we'uns could have a bit of a chat. Well, low and behold, once the ship was stopped and we gathered up for a chit chat, the Argosux announces he's opening fire!! How rude!

Well now, we could'na sit there and let a battleshrimp loose its guns upon our tiny snubs, so o'course we returned fire. 'Twas not our fault that yer ships can'na stand a few novas. Well then, soon there was plasma flyin' all about, all o'them 13th ships a shootin' and a yellin' and then some Exile capital ship came up ta throw it's weight about too. Twas a sight to behold it was. Our friend Michael was a'tryin' ta watch things unfold, but that battleshrimp kept a shootin' anyway, even though Michael had not fired a shot. He had ta tell them 13th fellas who it was they were supposed ta be shootin'. Methinks they've got some kind o' impairment or somethin.'

Well, at least them Frenchies were decent enough to have a chat, well at least until that Aurelia chick showed up. Anyways, we that was there had a good laugh at yer Argosux. Ye 13th types is a might trigger happy lot, but our thanks to ye fer tellin' the whole sector of space about ye bein' hostile to us. We'll not bother with much in the way of pleasantries with ye lot then, and will jus' commence ta collectin' yer escape pods fer Miss Moore.

Oh and um, we decided ta throw in a couple o'gun cam images fer ya, for yer scrap book.

'Ello there chaps.

It's me Gregory! The one you backstabbed in the past. Guess what? It's payback time! You should've heard by now that the installation in Edinburgh under 13th's control has been ERASED FROM EXISTANCE. Don't mess with the Mollys or you'll get the scyllas.

Have a nice day.

So are ye bret or are ye Gallic? To which language should I be addressing this communication? Since ye started out as Bretonian, I'll go with Bret speak then. If that doesn't work I'll try Gallic, and if that still doesn't work I'll try drawing pictures for you.

I'll have you know that no portion of any agreement that might or might not exist with either Bretonia or Gallia was violated in the destruction of the 13th base. You see, it's still a wonder how you deluded yourselves into thinking that just because you switched flags one day the Gallics would turn around and give you command of battleships.

As this is still an open channel throughout Bretonia I'll give you a bit of a history lesson lad.

Any Molly found within the vicinity of a 13th Warship will be engaged and destroyed without hesitation and regardless of the situation at the time.

Now, that statement is one of a declaration of war against the Mollys. It specifies not whether it be 13th Bretonian or 13th Gallian. As you had previously under your guise of the BAF shot at Molly ships, as well as under your guise as Gallic hats shot at Molly ships, you voided yourself from any form of protection from any agreement that might exist upon either side.

Furthermore, the grand admiral of the GRN was notified of our intent to destroy the 13th base prior to our having begun operations. Likewise Bretonia was also notified. It would seem to us, the level of lack of concern for the 13th from either the GRN or the BAF would refute your claims of future doom and destruction upon us.

To put it simply, turncoats are not often considered trustworthy, nor worth protecting. When you flip your coin to decide which flag you intend to salute today, consider that both flags were informed of our operations against your installation, and both flags chose to leave us be.

So, ye changed yer name from Francis to Antoinette? Hmmm...so a flag change isn't the only change operation ye've been had. Interesting.

For the first part, there were FOUR, not two 13th dessies killed that day. Two were killed in New London because as soon as they appeared on scanners, during a time of truce with the BAF, they opened fire. They were destroyed. Then, later on in Leeds we came across your Argosux. You refused to reply to hails and so one of our ships was asked to disrupt your cruise engines (see previous communication in this channel). Again, instead of talking, you chose to open fire and your dessies were put down yet again - a common happenstance when the 13th enounters the Mollys I must say. Thus it was the 13th and not the Mollys that broke truce with Bretonia.

Next part, hmmm, what should I say? Well, this comm is only viewable at this time by those in Bretonia, who already have declared you rogue and traitor. I'm setting the communications codes now to open this transmission to the authorities in Gallia as well. Time they should see what behavior prompted your dismissal from the Bretonian armed forces, and let them see what they ended up with having you lot change yer names and flags at a whim and puff of wind.

As for yer base, well, what sort of military would attack a base at full capacity when it can attack one that is hindered? Foolishness really. And, as you put it, if the base was structurally failing already, it seems you've been spending far too much time changing flags, names and sex than caring for your base.

Make all the threats you will 13th or *laughs* Loyalists (such an oxymoron since it's just a bunch of baffer turncoats). You are no threat to the Mollys, we send our rookies to train on your ships because you're just that bad. So Argosux, do have a good day dear.

MESSAGE DESTINATION: [color=#FFFFFF]Narrow-band viewable only to Carrie Duncan and Antoinette Drake
[font=Courier New]ENCRYPTION: HIGH
IDENTIFICATION: Capitaine Denis Tavernier
SOURCE: Battleship Castres, Edinburgh
SUBJECT: Your general incompetence

"Capitaine Drake of the Argos<strike>u</strike>ax. Need I remind you that you don't have any authorization from Grand Marechal Roux to attack any Molly identified vessels unless they attack you first. Your base was seen as little more than a waste of resources for the Kingdom of Gallia and our reasonings are our own, you have no need to know why your base was allowed to be destroyed... only that it was. Now I am not one to question the Grand Marechal, and neither should you be doing so. It's considered treason. You would do best to remember that and stand down from whatever the hell action it is you think you are taking against the Mollys of Dublin.

Another note. It's best not to offend people that we've signed a non-aggression pact with. If you're seen attacking any Molly bases in an attempt to break the NAP... the consequences will be dire. This is your only warning."
