The Gas Miners Guild considers the Kingdom of Bretonia to be its friend.
As a result, we must unfortunately inform you that the supply of vital H-Fuel to your House is due to decline as a direct result of the actions of the Federal Republic of Rheinland.
House Rheinland has, for reasons unknown, invaded the Sigma systems, which are rightful Guild territory. GMG has until now taken all reasonable measures to avoid direct conflict, however despite our best efforts to maintain peace, Rheinland insists on upholding its hostile landgrab of GMG space.
The Guild paramilitary must now engage in defensive operations against the unjustified aggression it faces, which unfortunately means the delivery of vital fuel to House Bretonia will be adversely affected. This is not a willing consequence of the current situation but one that is, due to the attack on The Guild, outside its control.
The true motivation behind the attack is unknown. House Rheinland may potentially be in league with the Kingdom of Gallia in order to assume complete control of the Sirius Sector, or there may be further ulterior motives at work.
What is clear is that, for no justifiable reason, this offensive will have a direct negative effect on the rest of the Sirius Sector. It is also vital that the Republic of Liberty be informed of the above, and this message has been also directed to them. We regret we will no longer be able to maintain our fuel supply at 100%, and call upon our friends for assistance in this matter.
Regretfully, The Guild has now been forced to alter its strategy and, in self-defence, effect strikes on the Rheinland Military, both in the Sigma systems and Rheinland space. This redirection of Guild resources will as of now force all planned fuel deliveries to the Kingdom of Bretonia to be cancelled as our paramilitary manoeuvres to face the invaders in combat.
This is a most regrettable series of events, however with the exception of House Rheinland ceasing its assault on the Gas Miners Guild, unavoidable. As your friends, we shall endeavour to provide you with updates on the situation as appropriate.
