In the March, 826 A.S. in their desperate situation on the front lines, Bretonia have laid claim on Aland Shipyard. The Guild, in full understanding of their position, have made several attempts to provide the crumbling Kingdom with alternative options that was not involving 'nationalisation' of Aland.
In their unlimited idiocy and stubbornness, all the options provided have been denied, and we had to rally a sufficient force to repel the hostile incrusion. A chain of unfortunate events have resulted in force takeover of the shipyard and additional nationalisation of Cardiff, our mining facility in Cambridge, that was later scuttled in a joint attack of the Guild and the Mollys.
We are not going to just let Bretonia stomp on everything we stood for and get away with this; after the loss of Aland, no reparations have been paid, and not a single apology was sounded towards The Guild. Not that the Guildmasters have had high hopes of hearing anything from people blinded by their imperialistic ambitions, covered by noble motives.
Aland has to share the fate of Cardiff. The Guild will not tolerate anyone's overconfidence and such incrusions and misrespective treatment. This is going to be a stage play of two actions, and the first one will involve distracting Bretonia's attention from Aland - by setting up a decoy diversion on Battleship Norfolk. It will involve the mentioned automated transports loaded with explosives, that will be set on collision course with the battleship and, ultimately, will render it incapable of responding to the threat for the time enough for us to set up and finish the main act of our stage play in Omega 3.
I hope this clarifies everything you wanted to know.
