No doubt you have heard of the recent events with Zoners in Omicron Delta. They're certainly becoming a thorn in our side.
But what's worse is the motely crew of allies they've begun to pull together from all reaches in Sirius and are somehow able to make them concentrated in the Omicrons. In this dire time, if we are to put the Zoners in their place, The Core requires assistance from it's allies.
The Zoners and their cause may mothball into something that will begin to conflict with our operations, and that includes our ability to harvest Iridium and produce alien-sourced goods for Liberty. We are requesting the assistance of the LSF to help deliver some Libertonian justice to the Zoners and their allies - namely The Order, the SCRA and the Corsairs. We will provide you with all the facilites you may need via our bases.
"Ich will discuss your request with the rest of the Directorate concerning direct military assistance. Ve understand, however, ze Zoners contributed a decent portion of your daily necessities, and zat loss may begin to be problematic. Humanitarian aid in ze form of Resupply Group "Alaska," lead by ze transport "Nunavut" vill be arriving in Omicron Rho soon, however.
Do avoid being exterminated. It vould be problematic for us.
Hochachtungsvoll,"
Eva Adenauer, Executive Director, Liberty Security Force.
"After much deliberation, ze Board of DIrectors has decided upon ze following actions.
Ze Liberty Security Force vill relinquish control of:
Quote:5 (Five) LZF-9805 "Liberator"-class Light Fighter
3 (Three) DL-Hai "Grizzly"-class Shuttles
3 (Three) "Defiant"-class Gunboats with a full selection of projectile armaments
To the Core from our personal inventories of light und medium craft. Use zem to the best of your abilities, for zere vill be no replacements in ze near future. Respond with ze newly-assigned callsigns for ze craft in zis channel.
Hochachtungsvoll,"
Eva Adenauer, Executive Director, Liberty Security Force.
We are hugely gracious for these vessels. I promise you we will make great use of them. Beyond vessels and equipment though, is there any chance of direct support?

Bad news, I'm afraid.
The Executive has decided against providing material assistance to the Guild Core at this time. Stated reasons are as follows:
The Executive Wrote:
Firstly, as we have no control over the provision of military vessels and essentially lease our vessels from the Navy and Security Force, we are not in a position to provide you with their use. Fortunately, the main branch of the Liberty Security Force have seen fit to release some resources to your control.
Secondly, as the Agency is not a force designed for combat, compelling our agents to take sides in the Omicron Delta situation would be to seriously risk their safety, especially with the amount of capital ships in use. Simply put, we lack firepower.
Finally, it is not politically or militarily expedient at this time to assist the Guild Core in the Edge systems, while maintaining preparations for a defensive campaign closer to home. This terrible crisis has occurred at a period of time where our focus lies elsewhere.
Hopefully, the Guild Core will be able to survive by other means.
