I believe I already told you all that I know about the Separatist, or at least the knowledge I'd acquired during the tenure of my previous career. They're an.. insurgency, let's call them that. Aimed at erasing all traces of perceived infection from Liberty and its Armed Forces through apparently whatever means they deem necessary. They're a horribly misguided and naive people, but nothing if not resourceful, given that they haven't been slaughtered by the Republic's sheer numbers as of yet.
They're a potential asset, and I've already managed to successfully influence one of their officers into.. acquiring a new perspective on life. More specifically an orange one. As for tactical information, the Separatists largely wage a guerrilla war, not having the fleet assets to go toe-to-toe with the Republic, at least not without the coordination of the Lane Hackers and the cannon-fodder of the Rogues. If we could continue to influence them into using cardamine to supplement their low numbers, we might be able to rope them into our existing partnerships within Liberty. The flagship of the Separatists is ironically dubbed the Harmony, from what I've heard it's a particularly angst fueled rendition of your typical Overlord, red and black galore.
My personal assessment of the Separatists is that yes, they have a scope for utility in securing our own convoys. We might even be able to turn them into a secondary market of sorts. But we'd need to put in place 'checks' to secure ourselves against a potential ideological love-fest. Nothing I hate more than the verbally righteous.
If the perspective I've provided is sufficient, I'll move on to scoping out the situation in Omicron Delta and keeping my ear to the wall for anything I can find out about the Crayter's next moves. Though I doubt they'll be so quick in trying to reclaim lost ground, especially when the loss had been this costly. As a former officer, I'd assume their best bet at this point in time would be to consolidate forces and prevent a follow-up attack further behind their own lines, but that's just my intuition talking, it doesn't account for ineptitude.
