Thanks for getting back to us, Dr. Hunter.

In a perfect universe all of our stations would be fully covered, but we likely don't have the resources to allow for that. As we originally stated, we'd like to start with 6 of our stations (the higher priority ones - Falkland, Java, Aland, Siloso, Falster, Freistadt), though 3 (Falkland, Java, Aland) would be acceptable depending on the materials required. We're not convinced only protecting 1 base would be enough to prevent serious blows to our ability to operate (IMG is a pretty decentralised organisation below the guildmaster level, by our nature), but if needed, we would choose Falkland.

We're not going to ask you to divert people from a cause that is already stretched pretty thinly. Right now we have almost no protection, so this is going to be a step in the right direction.

Marvin Dietrich
Station Administrator & Special Procurement Officer
