Communique from CGF Marshall

[Atreides2]

Soldiers,
Comrades,
Brothers and Sisters in Arms,

I come in front of you not as your Marshall, but as a humble Soldier and I must say that I am impressed and I am honored that I serve with such courageous people. You are what defines us as a nation.

Our Ground Forces origins are humble and I must say that when we arrived on Pecos we had nothing to resemble a structured Force but now, we are a Force.

We trained for years, we study our history and we adapted, we learned from it and we overcome now what kept us back. Slowly, our dwindling force have grown, a few recruits every year until the government took control and started the rebuilding, until our citizens found in them the patriotic call to protect the freedoms which defines us, to protect our civilization, our nation.

We are armed, we are trained, we are READY! Ready for what, you may ask?

The Republic is AT WAR, brothers and sisters, and is not only us who are threatened, all of free Sirius is under attack from an enemy who prepared and gather forces for several centuries. And then they come, in their hundreds, in their thousands, in their ships pouring destruction on every Sirian and Crayterian that dare to stay in their face.

Remember the Tau 44!

For those we have left behind!

This words means more then a form of salute, remember our pilots and our soldiers that were slaughtered to buy our civilians a few precious moments, remember the civilians that were butchered trying to escape. And why they were butchered? Because they had tried to impose their rule over us, their way of thinking and their civilization over us and we refused.

What happened to us, happened to others! On Harris, on Leeds, in Edinburgh, in Tau 31, in Tau 23 they came and impose their law and killed all that refused!

We showed them what we can do, when Alliance forces took back Tau 44. That was the FIRST system liberated but our work is not done. Millions of people are still suffering because of the Gallic expansion, thousands are living in fear, fear of execution if they do not do what they say.

They lost their right of speech! They lost their freedom! In their name I call you to fight! For them!
For those that we left behind! They are the ones that are suffering under the yoke and they may think that we forgot them. No, we didn't!

Is time to liberate those planets.

Soldiers, I command you! Land on those planets and remind the Gauls that nothing come cheap, that nothing will be that easy. Drop and free Leeds! Drop and free Harris!

Our brothers and sisters from the Fifth Division are the first ones to enter in the fray. Secure a beach head!
Contact the Resistance! Destroy any Gallic installation or facility! Free any Bretonian and deliver them to safety!


Marshall Duncan Atreides

Soldiers of the Crayterian Ground Forces, 21st "Eagle" Division,

Today, we found ourselves once more being called to arms. While the rumours are true and our Republic managed to raise three more Divisions, we need to call upon you, the Armoured Infantry to serve once more on the line.

You have proven your metal time and time again during the years and our latest endeavour on Leeds seemed to cause some damage to the Gauls but this time we will act to protect one of our allies.

Is widely known that Fleet vessels are now fighting against the Gauls in New London and that the Gauls pushed the combined fleets near the planet of New London, where they fight for the survival of the Bretonian Kingdom. While in the past we would have cherished this and would assist them, the tide has changed and we need to sustain the Bretonians in this.

You would ask how and the answer is simple, we will provide them with a new shipyard from which they can repair and construct more ships.

The Republic offered the support of Sabah but the Bretonian Fleet does not have the Jump Capabilities like ours, thus this is out of the question, but they are looking towards Aland.

The Government approved a new plan and we will execute it.

First Regiment, you are being shipped to Aland. Second Regiment, you are sent to reinforce the Singapore, Crayterian Side. The rest of the Division will be placed on standby Pecos.

Your official orders are to join the stations' defences and take positions. You will help them reinforce their defences and take position at every strategic point on the station. Now, listen carefully Soldiers, when you hear Order 13, you will arrest any IMG and move them towards the habitation areas. You shall then provide them with cover while you take control of the station CIC and all vital areas. Use of non-lethal weapons authorises, remember people we are there NOT to kill them but to serve as a reason as to why an IMG station had to create Bretonian Warships.

If the situation causes a SitRep Cobra, permission to use live ammunition is authorised. Please make sure you would shoot to incapacitate, not to kill.

Once the station is in our hands, you shall wait for the Bretonians to come and take over. One Battalion will remain to act as peacekeepers between the Bretonians and IMG, in case of violence. We will offer any IMG the possibility to move away from the station.


Remember your orders, remember your duty and prepare to do your part in the giant cogs which support our war effort!

May the Gods protect us!

[Crayter Republic]

Soldiers of Crayter Planetary Forces,

We have a difficult task for you this time. Independent Miners Guild is now looks like working for the enemy. And we are at a state of war with them. Your job in this will be seizing key installations. Singapore Shipyard, Jakarta Orbital Colony and Camp Lister of Pecos moon. We can not let them build a resistance within our space.

34th "Warhound" Division and 18th "Hawkeye" Division, you are tasked with seizing Singapore and the Jakarta extension of the Shipyard. Expect resistance, some of the best IMG Paramilitary can put, in fact. That means lethal fire is authorized from start. Incapacitating them is the first priority, however do not hesitate to pull the trigger to kill if you are forced to. We want the station intact, keep that in mind. Minimal explosives and incendiary ordnance to be used. Be sure to kill CIC crew, they can alert Java or Falkland and bring additional security, which we do not want. Part of the Fleet will be there to secure the station against external threats.

23rd "Claymore" Division, your job is to seize Camp Lister. We do not want to damage the equipment of IMG there. Unless their commoners are as dimwitted as their Guildmaster and damage their own equipment of course. In that case, burn the equipment so they cannot use those either.


Remember your orders, remember your duty and prepare to do your part in the giant cogs which support our war effort!

May the Gods protect us!
