This is Willard Max, ranking officer of the Psymple.Defect.
It is most saddening news that I must confirm what my commanding officer, Commander Dawn has brought.
Me and my crew were involved in the failed advance into Alaska, I was among the fleet with another of the 141 Task Force, the Undying.Faith. We were given news by our commander, Marcus Dawn as his ship was scuttled and had to limp back to Toledo for repairs, that the Liberty forces outnumbered us massively as well as from scouting fighters.
As we battled the Dreadnaught that felled my commanders ship back through to Alaska, we amassaed our forces to guard the Jump hole. We were told of 3 Liberty Dreadnaughts and atleast 5 liberty fighters or bombers. Our current forces stood at 2 Gebs, 2 Osiris, A cruiser and a few fighters.
On these numbers I decided as ranking officer of my own ship that it was unwise for us to entre into Alaska to fight on their terms. This I told to my superiors in the Primary fleet however the comm chanels were flooded with argument and bickering as to what action we should take.
What happened next was a catastrophy, myself and Undying.Faith quickly turned back to Isis to resupply as we were both low on Shield Batteries and Nano Bots, however even with the warning that we were not yet ready the Order fleet was ordered to jump to Alaska and go to the centre of G4 to meet the Liberty fleet.
This was the orders of OCV-Qetesh, although we did not take very long to resupply by the time my ship an the Undying.Faith had made it to Alaska we were hearing reports of destroyed Osiris' and routing...
We chose not to join in this slaughter and instead headed back to Minor incase we would be the only two surviving caps to defend Toledo against a Liberty invasion.
It is most disapointing that I was to witness such a breakdown in communication today, I witnessed Alan being accused of failure when the only failure I saw was the OCV-Qetesh refusing to listen to the intel from reconnaisonce fighters and the advice of the Secondary fleet.
