Hi. I was on the RNS-Tonnant. These are the events as I have seen them and, after my death, as I have reconstructed them according to what those involved, from both sides, have told me.
The Bretonians cooperated as well as they could, but the smog cloud made my Valor hard to see, so an Exile destroyer and an indie Dunkirk got too close by accident, and died as a result. After that I was killed by a cloaky 3 cerb dreadnought, but my reinforcements had already arrived. The dreadnought was overpowered in melee, and the Crecy was cruised upon and shot from point blank. By the time you were done with whatever kept you busy in Magellan and finally arrived, the BAF|HMS-Victoria, a LABC, was the only Allied ship remaining. That is why there was no unified force to support you. It wasn't as serious as you might think, though. One of the two Valors was dry and at 5% health, and the Obstinate, their only CD-er, was inferior to the Victoria by stats, armament and probably skill and remaining nanobots as well. This could have been a victory for the Allies, but unfortunately the Victoria lacked support, and was ultimately silenced by the focused effort of the GRN.
