Phoenix internal affairs: Athens Strategic Directive

[Soban]

Esteemed Colleagues,

It is with a measure of regret that I relay troubling developments. Our efforts to secure supplies from WEISS have met an untimely end, as their corporate infrastructures seems to have collapsed.

More alarmingly, long-range telemetry from Livadia and Athens has identified substantial instability within the Omicron jump network. The Theta-Delta route is on the verge of collapse, while Kappa-Delta shows signs of reconstitution. Compounding matters, we have received disconcerting reports of anomalies affecting the Theta-Alpha link.

In light of these critical developments, I have authorized the redirection of a segment of our trading fleet to expedite the Athens infrastructure upgrade. Exporting iridium can be deferred, as ensuring security remains our top priority.

Here’s the plan:
Phase One: Operational Reallocation
To facilitate immediate resource mobilization, we will decommission two manufacturing facilities. These operations will be restored post-crisis, contingent on future needs.

Phase Two: Storage Expansion I and II
Our immediate priority is to augment storage capacity to accommodate the anticipated requirements of the core upgrade. The following materials will be requisitioned twice:

• 10,000 Hull Panels
  
• 5,000 Construction Machinery
  
• 5,000 Industrial Materials
  
• 5,000 Optronics
  
• 5,000 Robotics
  

Phase Three: Core Development Initiative
Concurrently, our research division is tasked with designing a state-of-the-art power core tailored to address the emergent threats within the Omicrons. The specifications and material requirements for this endeavor are as follows:

• 25,000 Industrial Materials
  
• 10,000 Hull Panels
  
• 10,000 Robotics
  
• 10,000 Basic Alloy
  
• 10,000 Super Alloy
  
• 10,000 Construction Machinery
  
• 10,000 Titanium
  
• 5,000 Optronics
  
• 5,000 Nanocapacitors
  

Note: Basic Alloy is excluded, as we maintain sufficient production capabilities in-house.

Incentive Program:
Acknowledging the urgency of this mission, we are prepared to offer an enhanced remuneration package to all contributors. Compensation will include a premium of approximately 50% above the prevailing Freeport 11 rates for the listed goods.

Your unwavering commitment and expertise remain invaluable during these tumultuous times. Together, we will navigate these challenges and emerge stronger.

With resolve and determination,

The Old Man, out.
