TO: Bretonian Authorities ((//factions only)) FROM: =LSF=

[Strobel]

Dear Admiral Fairfax,

I've been studying the last attempts of our parties to achieve a mutual agreement like the one we've recently established and I can second your opinion. The efforts were lost due to lacks of communication and I hope we'll be able to solve this matter this time as the risks of losing our contract seems rather great to me.

Regarding our mobile HQ - which is already present in Leeds - I can assure you that most of our personal will be stationed right with your people on the planet side while only a spare crew will keep our vessel running.
The main operation will be planned and supervised from the location we've been pointed to earlier but I'd like to keep the Democritus around for special tasks and transport issues if necessary.
Compared to a usual fighter or bomber the evasive capabilities of a yacht are in our advantage when it comes to avoid enemy crafts and cruise disruptor missiles being fired upon us. Also the improved engines are more suited for fast escapes compared to snub crafts.

As a man who's got to deal with a lot of paperwork myself I totally understand your concern about forwarding and relaying messages especially in stressful situations. Though I don't think a vessel like the Hermes would cause any major delays in communications as the crew is specially trained when it comes to such situations.



With best regards,
