Attention brave men and women,

The recent set of events surrounding both the Corporate tyrants and the Cretan filth have both come as a result of our temporarily weakened state. Traitors within our ranks rendered several assets within the Oberkommando incapacitated for some time. The attempts on our lives have only strengthened our resolve, and as such we will retaliate - with full force.
Following the disaster in Valhalla, several of our military assets streamlined into Dresden will be committed to crushing the invading Cretan forces.

-All defensive forces within Dresden will have a new primary objective, the riddance of the Cretan warship "CNS-Athos". The Altenburg will be dealt with on the accord of our new and improved Oberkommando.
-All offensives with the Kingdom of Bretonia will cease immediately, the Kingdom has agreed to enter a state of non-aggression following both commercial and military benefits. Further details regarding this will be elaborated.
-All offensives against the Union in Northern Rheinland will cease immediately until instructed further, details regarding this will be disclosed publicly when ready.
-Mining vessels based out of Muspelheim and Jötunheimr will begin collecting resources from the newly found "Omega-2" system which will now be called ""Vanaheimr". Allowed assets within the system will be limited to Bretonian and IMG vessels. All others are to be dealt with accordingly.
-All forces entering New Beijing will be halted until further surveys are conducted by the Spezialoperationsabteilung.
-The Order will be tolerated within Our core territories so long as they do not approach with any warships, their presence in southern Rheinland will be tolerated under the same conditions.
-Bowex vessels will deal in the exchange of Blood Diamonds, they are to be treated as neutral assets. They, and they alone are permitted - all other Bretonian assets should be escorted out back towards Bretonian space.

Furthermore, the Volksrevolution will maintain a neutral stance in the ongoing conflict over Planet Saigon in the Sigma cluster. Should the Kusarians make way into Rheinland, they will be considered hostile targets. Records of endorsements between them and the Cretan Empire date back over a decade, any evidence of the groups working together should be reported immediately. Failure to report will be met with disciplinary action.

Signed, Generalmajor

I've spent quite some time roaming around Niflheim looking for any potential victim. The mining field were empty as well as the system itself. My decision was not to exit Niflheim just yet. That decision has proven to be a good one. As I was closing in to Stuttgart Gate, a Junker vessel jumped into the system. I sincerely hoped it was a Marauder, but it was just a Congressman. After a brief chat it came to my knowledge that the cargo he was hauling was going to Planet Sprague, one system away from Niflheim. I simply couldn't let that cargo go to Bretonians instead of us, so I persuade him to turn around and head directly to Vogtland. I escorted the Junker to our base in Dresden.

It was a long flight from Niflheim to Dresden as we flew through Stuttgart which is not a small system as we all know. We haven't been spotted flying through the system and the cargo arrived safely to Vogtland. From there we departed, the Junker informed me that he was going to visit Vogtland's bar and I went on a routine patrol around Dresden.

Nothing interesting appeared on my scanners during my patrol. The system was rather quiet.

We've received a call for backup on Vogtland. The call came from Oberleutnant Ármannsson which was involved in a battle right outside Planet Tangier. Luckily I managed to get there quick enough and prevent any potential damage to our Oberleutnant. The ones involved were Corsairs, Bounty Hunters and of course, us. By the time I arrived, one Corsair bomber was already neutralized, soon after I arrived and engaged the enemy, I managed to neutralize both of their fighters^ᚥ.

What was left were two Bounty Hunter Gunboats. At that moment we didn't have enough firepower to deal any proper damage to them, so we just had to stall the fight and wait for backup that was already on it's way to us. The backup arrived and the enemy was put out of action which can be seen from the footage below.

Our work in Muspelheim was finished, all enemy vessels were neutralized and we moved back to Vogtland. I couldn't even get a break from the fight in Muspelheim and I already received another call for backup, only this time it was in Dresden. Reportedly our patrol wings was attacked by both Rheinland Military and Police vessels. They were engaged north-east from Altenburg.

Their snubs were neutralized^ᚤᚤ and our forces didn't suffer any losses except for one Coalition snub vessel that was unfortunately disabled by an RM light bomber.
