As I'm sure you know, Bretonia's situation in this war grows ever more desperate by the day. Our loss of the Southampton Shipyards was a major blow, one that we can barely recover from. The events in Omega-3 are a result of this loss, the IMG shipyard looks more and more like our final lifeline, as such, the Bretonian government attempted to negotiate with the IMG as to it's turn over. This was originally designed to be a temporary move, but given the IMG's refusal and they're summoning of allies, the Bretonian Government ordered the Norfolk fleet to seize the shipyard for Bretonia.
Naturally the IMG are far from impressed by this move and although they have our sympathies, our survival is simply non negotiable.
