Dear friends,

It takes an effort to believe that you are still there. A strong wish for that as well. If I thought that you had succumbed to the relentless pressure that has plunged from Ile-de-France at the beams holding our cultures, to topple them all, I would not have contacted you.
Bretonian beams are holding. They have been for a long time, and even I, an admiral of Her Majesty's Armed Forces, am beginning to think that their endurance is being pushed to the limit.
I am trying to imagine your situation, unsuccessfully I hope.
The Admiralty has seen the potential of the allied Tau garrisons. We commend the Council for their victory and hope that it means something to us all, other than a small teardrop of hope in an ocean of desperation. Meanwhile, the Gallic Battleship Dax is looming above our, still at least, Planet Harris, a relenting pocket of resistance and hope.
Harris must not fall. The Taus must continue resisting. For the sake of that, our parties have to leave the history between us in the graves of our fallen, brave fighters, and unite for the same cause not only in words, but in deeds as well. The bottleneck through which Gallic supplies flow must be disturbed daily, without cease, and if possible, closed entirely. For that purpose, we are willing to forward some of our ships your way, may fortune keep them safe on their path. Because that will potentially make a hole in our defenses, a small one but still a leak, we request some of your ships in return.

For the sake of hope, what are you willing to offer?

Yours sincerely,.....................................................

Admiral Sir George R. Hall

Admiral Hall,

I deeply appreciate your words. Yes, we are indeed still here... resisting Gallic efforts with every drop of blood, hope and loyalty. That is what drove us to this day with unwavering loyalty to our cause. Crayterian beams held, are holding and will continue to hold, as long as we don't lose hope and the spark in our hearts.
We offer you reassurance that the Taus will continue to resist and Harris will not fall in the hands of Gallia.
But, we shall unite these words with deeds, for the sake of those we left behind! We appreciate Armed Forces' offer and we shall respond in kind. In that prospect, I will bring Director Larkin, from the Crayter Defense Industries, to aid in these proceedings. I personally think a mutually beneficial exchange of technology and weaponry may provide both our militaries with a slight tactical advantage, especially since the Gauls will not expect either one of our forces using the ships of the other.

Signed, Michael Richard
Fleet Admiral
Crayter Republic

Honourable Fleet Admiral,

Bretonia and I in her name, but not only then, are happy to hear about your wish of cooperation, but less happy to hear about the need.
I am looking forward to hearing your offer so we could make our, as fairly as Bretonians have always made.

Yours sincerely,.....................................................

Good day Admiral Sir George Richard Hall,

I am Director of Crayter Defense Industries. My name is Ryan Larkin, let's get down to business shall we.

Recently being informed of a deal between the Crayter Republic and the Bretonian Armed Forces. I have been asked to put together an option in exchange for a few vessels. Our pride and terror of the Republic, for some of the Queen's Jewels from Bretonia.

This is what me and my team have come up with, we are trying to make it as fair as possible. Asking for an even amount of ships for what we are giving. Here is the list

Crayter Republic Military Vessels
Hydra Gunboat - Offer of three (3) Gunboats.
Nyx Very Heavy Fighter - Offer of ten(10) Fighters.
Pyho Bomber - Offer of ten (10) Bombers.
Eros Light Fighter - Offer of ten (10) Fighters {Optional}

Bretonian Armed Force Vessels
Churchill Gunboat - Request two (2) Gunboats
Templar Very Heavy Fighter - Request ten (10) Fighters
Paladin Heavy Fighter - Request ten (10) Fighters
Challenger Bomber -Request ten (10) Bombers
Hussar Light Fighter - Request ten (10) Fighters {Optional}

Well, let us know what you decide, but this is what we have to offer and what we request in return.

Director Ryan Larkin

Esteemed Director,

Your offer is tempting, but I could not miss that you listed your party to give the Armed Forces one gunboat more, while the Armed Forces are giving you, by the deal, additional ten heavy fighters. On numerous occasions I have witnessed ten fighters, whichever, overpower a gunboat, even two of them. Instead, the Armed Forces would feel more comfortable if we had to transfer you eight (8) of each fighters instead. That way we are content, while still giving you a ship more.
I hope that you find reason in my counteroffer.

Yours sincerely,.....................................................

Admiral Sir George R. Hall

That was a rather swift response,

We offered the Armed Forces the extra gunboat to try and even up the deal as we requested ten more of the heavy fighter class. I personally have not witness that form of power due to myself not being a pilot. I just work on Sabah Shipyard and made exchanges and deal with requests. So I am going to take the word of a Bretonian Armed Forces Admiral, and request eight (8) heavy fighters and very heavy fighters instead of the ten (10) we originally requested. I hope this will make both parties happy.

Director Ryan Larkin

Hall was not happy with the deal. He is never happy when he gives more than he gets, and often if it is equal too. But at the very moment, something came up. He had other priorities.
He felt an urge to write "honourable" in italics.

Honourable Director,

You are a skillful merchant. In the name of the Armed Forces of Bretonia, I accept your (*notice the lack of "generous"*) offer. May the ships serve us until the Gallic shadow is pushed back, and after that, only in peace.
Long live Queen Carina the First and long live the Crayter Republic.

Yours sincerely,.....................................................

Admiral Sir George R. Hall
