"L",

I've been better, hence how long it's taken for me to return this to you. Lately I get the distinct feeling that the Bundesrepublik is aware of the Widerstandsarmee's status as the premier defense of the Frankfurt system; we've had Corsair battlegroups complete with dreadnought-sized vessels wearing down our energy, the Buro has been ruthlessly probing the Taunusfeld. I say "aware" because the latter seems only to strike when we're at our most weary.

Now the Maltese have been smuggling "Illegal" munitions Northwards to the Sigmas along the trade lanes, without the Bundespolizei around to stop them. We managed to catch and disable one of the convoys, but we suffered injuries and casualties in return.

The Widerstandsarmee is more than willing to defend at least this Northern corner of Rheinland from the Sigma invaders, but we need reinforcement if either group returns. As always I'm profoundly hesitant to make ends meet through piracy or lane-sitting, but morale is beginning to slip notably, particularly with so many modular-stations merging the boundaries of "civilian" and "military" as of late.

By the way... Has my proof of Republican's and the Buro's corruption even left Rheinland? I've sent it out to the entire Sirius Sector now twice on the most powerful neural net-optronic we have, and have garnered zero media coverage anywhere, from what I can discern.

Please reply when you can; the situation here is becoming desperate.
