Kon'nichiwa.

I am Kirigiri Kyoko, Guildmaster of the Independent Miners Guild. Today, i come forth to you, asking for assistance.
To hold a joint operation, and strike our oppressors violently.

As you know, the developments in Omega-3 have resulted in a force takeover of Aland shipyard - 'nationalisation', that's what they called it. And, up to my knowledge - they are not intending to return our shipyard to us.
We have never supported, and never approved their claim.
Thus, we are going to deprieve them of our property.

Aland has to be burned down to it's frame.

Can we count on your support?

~Kirigiri Kyoko.

Guildmaster Kirigiri,

It has been a while since we met...I am glad to see you back despite those dark times. So you decided to destroy the shipyard you defended till the end. Allright. As the Crown promised you, the Marine Royale is going to give you a hand.

Though we can't really send capital vessels in that area of the Omegas. Even if we have the technology to jump there...But I'll see what I can do in this matter. I can of course send fighters, bombers and gunboats to assist you.

I would like to ask you something. How are you planning to blow down Aland? With whta kind of operation? Do you have enough forces? Hav you got already a plan? I need precisions on what you are planning. Aland is in our knowledge the last shipyard under the control of the Bretonians. It is supposed to be highly defended.

Until then.

Sincèrement

Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Pierre Vaillant.

Pierre, it is a pleasure to have your response so soon after the initial message was sent. Your assumptions are correct: we do have a plan, and a sufficient force is being assembled as we speak.

I also have good news for you: Marine Royale will be able to operate under it's native colors, Gallic Crown will only be briefly involved in the action in Omega-3. Assemble your fleet, commandant, we will be attacking Norfolk, and will attempt to cripple it - we are currently preparing automated transports with explosives to deliver a blow to it's crucial nodes.

Below i will provide a part of the first stage of our plan - the Cambridge assault.

The second part will take place in Omega-3 and only involve your light fighters squadron occupied with delaying Bretonian reinforcements and disrupting the trade lanes.

Guildmaster,

To be punctual always helped me.

It's a very interesting plan that you have there. I have to say you have prepared your shot well. The use of transport full of explosives is audacious. The Guild has changed a lot lately. Your courage that is the balance between fear and daring is a rare thing and your determination deserves to be praised. There is no better weapon than to fight to the end with a glimmer of hope. This is the thing that Bretonians armies miss. Something that will be fatal to them.

Regarding your plan ... The Marine didn’t have really contacts with the groups that will take care of Aland. It is therefore logical that we intervene separately. I still maintain the ability to send ships in Omega-3 depending on what happens. We will take care of trade lanes obviously and the harassment of the Bretonians to delay them as much as possible.

Your proposal concerning Cambridge ... could not be better. If you remember before the fall of Aland - actually a day before - the Marine led an operation into this system targeting a small installation, as goal to distract the Bretonians forces. And now I see the Norfolk Battlegroup in the same place. The task will be all too easy to repeat the same thing. The previous operation has been rich in lessons on this subject. The help of IMG forces is appreciated. Currently, the Norfolk combat force is unknown. Nevertheless, now that we know exactly how to do it, I plan to send an entire fleet to crush Norfolk.
The parameter of time is our big problem. That's we perhaps won’t be able to destroy Norfolk. But we can make it bleed. We shall do it.

Your request is approved. I was getting a little bored. You give me the opportunity to see a little action. I am going to prepare the operation in detail.

Sincèrement

Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Pierre Vaillant.

Guildmaster Kirigiri,

Je m'appelle Adelaide Gauthier, Commandant to Escadron XXII "Les Révélateurs" of the Royal Intelligence. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I have to admit, your proposal is a little unexpected, but welcome.

Depriving the Bretonians of their ill-gotten shipyard is going to be quite an endeavor. If the BAF learn from their mistakes, the shipyard will be a heavily-guarded space fortress. But taking it out will grant you the satisfaction for the Bretonian hubris, and give us a chance to end this bloody war once and for all. That's why my escadron shall participate, to the extent possible.

A complex set of circumstances, that I'm not at liberty to discuss, may limit our involvement to a single small strike team. However, the bright side of that arrangement is that we'll be able to slip through Cambridge unnoticed and reach Omega-3. Direct confrontation with the BAF, while undesirable, is possible, if we manage to isolate parts of their battlegroup.

When the time comes, we'll be ready. Meanwhile, expect to see our forces conducting reconnaissance in Omega-3 prior to the operation.

Madame Gauthier,

I believe i have already had an honor of witnessing your expertise - or hear about it from those i trust.
And i am nonetheless pleased by what i heard, which is the main reason behind including Les Révélateurs
as the recipients of this message.

And i get to see the confirmation of your abilities so straightforward, your perception of situation leaves no doubt that my faith in you is not baseless.
This is exactly what the Guild expects you to do: avoid the direct confrontation and delay the arrival of their reinforcements to Aland, so the second part of the assembled force would've met as little resistance is possible.
I would dare to say - your involvement is crucial to our success.

~Kirigiri Kyoko.

Guildmaster,

The Revelateurs yestersay went in Omega-3 to gather informations about the system. I guess le Commandant Gauthier is more concerned by the matter and she'll explain you that in detail. Though their squadrons has been attacked by a Coalition fleet when they tried to return in New London. The Marine dispatched a little fleet to destroy the enemy in Cambridge.

The rescue has been a success and we even could took over over the area around the wreck of Cardiff for a moment. Despite our presence, we haven't seen any Bretonian ship near the battle area, which is an unexpected new. It seems the system is not so defended than we thought. This means we won't have any difficulty to reach the Norfolk Battlegroup. The Bretonians haven't any knowledge about our attack in Cambridge. So I suppose they won't expect us when the time comes.

Sincèrement

Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Pierre Vaillant.
