The battle rages on outside of Planet New London and our brave soldiers and allies stand resolute in front of Planet New London, while in New Holland, the Armed Forces stops the Corsair Empire cold.
Good evening, Bretonia. Galen Richards here, bringing you the latest. Several reports come down planet-side giving a solid account of the happenings in space. Over more than one hundred million men and women are locked in furious space battles in the front lines, close to Planet New London, with several dead or missing from the continuous attrition that threatens us all.
One hundred souls were lost today as the HMS-Diamond, a Crecy class Destroyer took the full brunt of attack while defending battleship Ottawa, not before bringing down a wing of Cougars that were trailing the stern of the veritable Ottawa. Civilian analysts were baffled by the courageous display of the Diamond since its crew were non-veteran, second-line Armed Forces soldiers.
Still, the damage is done while the grounded Southampton engineers are still making the finishing touches on what many call the table-turner in this war. Our sources within the Armed Forces, where the best and brightest are leading the design and manufacturing of this new chariot of war, state that its deployment is near and in hand, some even saying that the test-phase has already begun in Poole, in multiple exercises.
More and more, our courage and determination are rising, while the news of the Trinité being ripped apart by a solid hit from our allies fuels our collective thoughts and souls. Bretonia will prevail, gentlemen and ladies, for we would have nothing else otherwise.
Meanwhile, the Queen herself visited the planetary headquarters of the Armed Forces Infantry and engaged in a lengthy but soul-rising speech to the already prepared troops planet-side. The cheers at the end of it showed the high moral of the troops and their willingness to defend the birthplace of our House.
New Holland is still under lock and key, with the Stirling Task-Force pushing away any attempts of insurrection from the zoner militia in space, even when aided by terrorist-like forces from the Order and Corsairs. Curious reports emerge due to the supposed participation of a Bretonian IFF'd Osiris class capital in the scuffles, and that it disappears as fast as it shows up. Maybe a bretonian ace up in the Armed Forces sleeves? Our sources cannot confirm such however. What can be confirmed is that the terrorist alliance of zoners, corsairs and order has been pushed back and that the Stirling is moving towards Sydney's orbit.
Planet-side, the story is quite different. All the zoner and corsair settlements have been pacified, quickly and efficiently. Over twenty thousand were arrested for inciting and participation in armed combat against the Bretonian Infantry Army Forces, and now await military trials for war crimes against the Bretonian Crown. We have tried to get a statement from Admiral Dagon, the woman in charge of this military operation but no reply has been received until now.
This is Galen Richards, your faithful companion in the six o'clock news.
