You all know by now what has happened to the Gwent. Over 100 souls were lost. Parents, sons, daughters, brothers and sisters will never return to their home and to their families. All for the madness of a delusional civilian manager. All for a shipyard that will keep us in the fight. All for the survival of our House. All for what we hold most dear.
In the end, all that I can offer you is these facts and command:
Through their actions, IMG, ALG and the Hessians proved us one singular point. That they want us under the Gaul power. They want us weak. They want us to be prey. They want a frail Bretonia and to pick on our carcasses. They want our families to be slaves. They want us to be serfs.
They want us as the dead in Leeds. Silent and piled onto a mass grave, everyday. They want us dying in droves in the front lines against Gallia and ultimately, the ones losing that fight.
They want. But we will give them what we decide to.
They want to play at battle. Let us give them the war we know for the past ten years. Let us give them the justice the silent cannot deliver anymore. Let us show them what Bretonia truly is. Let us show them what is to face us in hell. And let them pray that it never happens again.
Drudge status throughout the fleet. Kill them all.
For Bretonia.

Being part of the admiralty, like your commander for the Omega 3 takeover, Admiral Dagon, I felt it appropriate to share a few words in the spirit of the above.
The Gwent, while long since retired from active Armed Forces service and placed under the care of the BPA, was no less of a symbol of the our great house. The cowardly attack by the Hessians, followed by their blooded retreat, losing most of the Hessian "Kessel" Battlegroup in the process and abandoning the very reason they decided to stick their trouts in to Omega 3, is an example of the very lowest of lows. Not only have they blooded themselves, they have blooded the very forces that are fighting most fiercely their nemesis, the Corsairs, and to boot, the have muddied their honour.
On the Battlegroup Stirling, I sit at the forefront of Corsair aggression within Omega 49, newly named New Holland, and it falls to us, along with our local friends, to clean up the mess the Hessians have made.
For you, the members of the Norfolk Battlegroup, the task of securing Aland falls. With the Hessian presence mostly nullified, you need only move forwards towards the Shipyard, and it will capitulate. On the approach, you may face some resistance, futile and pointless as it is, but the outcome I have no doubt over.
Let it be known that your efforts are vital to the survival of our great house.
Show these Gallic puppets the true meaning of Bretonian justice.

We begin now our final approach to the Wilkes Ice Field. Primary and secondary intrusion points are defined per tight-beam instructions. Rip the field apart. Any enemy incursions are to be destroyed on sight and without parlay. Hellbound and Killarn groups are to move in through the tertiary point, cloaked and awaiting further command.
Captain Alby, your command will be the sucker punch upon final approach. I want those cannons trailed at the alpha targets and executed upon orders. Insertion teams are defined, and the plan is set. Chrysalis is a go.
Proof of their betrayal is known. Proof of how empty words do nothing for Bretonia. Gentlemen, this is where we take charge of our future, how meager and bleak it may seem. This is where we say "Enough."
And this is where we light up the torch. We have bled for years, we bleed still. Let us show them all the penalty for it. Let us show them what Bretonia is. Not a meek House. No. The dead we have suffered demand much more. They demand us to show our strength. And by Carina, we shall.
For Bretonia.

Admirals, Fleet Officers.
We're set and prepared. Hellbound and it's supporting units are set; we will begin our initial operation. Further communications shall be via combat lines. Lets finally be done with this. As commented, our initial and only communication to the Aland forces shall be "Enough". That will be all they get from us.
