Orkney was a resounding victory and a devastating message to The Union that people of Gallia won't just let them accept back The Enclave like nothing happened.
We didn't manage to escape with The Enclave liners but we got something better - a massacre of the Enclave Refugees when we detonated their own ship in the middle of them and The Gallic Navy traitors. This goes in large part thanks to The Gaians and your efforts - and we will repay you.
Our men's morale is at an all time high. Despite the many lives we lost on our side to achieve this feet, this is the first Major victory since The Council betrayed us. You move your base, you get what you need. The mood in our cells isn't one of humble escorts right now however. So I propose this - you move the base, we will provide all the towing ships we can spare.
But in the meantime it would be our honor to assault The Union Patrols in Languedoc directly with our fighter squadrons, and any support you or your allies can provide. We expect most Heavy Union Assets to be converging to Orkney as they try to figure out what the hell happened and whether we intend to strike at more targets in the system. So keeping their fighter patrols busy should provide all the distraction there's needed to tow the base to safety.
You answered our call to arms in Orkney - now we await for yours so we can repay the favor.
