[color=#FFFFFF]General Blackblood.

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][color=#FF0000]DIRECT TO GENERAL BLACKBLOOD

[color=#FFFF00]I must say your counter-offer is most surprising. Why would I, the Commandant of the Fighter Corps, require you as a Commissar? Do you not think I inspire our men enough? Do you not think that when it comes to putting actions into words, I am unable to do so?

I heard of this little raid you lead the other night. Only you and Major Xu made it back intact. Infact, I hear that Major Xu had to tow what was left of the Stormfall back while we completely lost a TALOS unit! While those are replaceable, I do not like losing assets at this pivotal time in the Dublin campaigns. Especially when you run a fools mission to the Omicrons. Everything is replaceable General, even you. I only require XiaoBei to remove whatever intelligence (or lack thereof) from that metal crate of yours, duplicate it and subjugate it to do my will.

I wonder what you were trying to prove to me General? That you could lead the men? That you are a competent tactician? You failed on both counts. The men were so brick scared of you, that the Outcast's celebrated New Year 6 months early with their very own Insurgent firework show! Mendal was right, my corps is a shambles and you leading the men on the front line does not inspire them to victory.

As such, no matter how much I do not want to, I accept this offer. You are barred from fighter flight, even if you do decide to grace the battlefield - It will be through a proxy only. We have plenty of SCUD wings left, take one of those.

You are a hate figure Blackblood. I will continue to mould you into one. The men shall rejoice when they see me because of you. I am the shield, their protector, the upholder of all the values of the Coalition. You are the doom bringer. I will make your life hell because I require an antagonist, someone who will take all the blame for when things go wrong. Someone who does not mind being despised.

You shall have your wish. You shall be "The Commandant's Hand".

Oh and by the way - The cleaner Eva had this new hypersonic vacuum cleaner. Do you know what happened to it?

For the Red Dawn!
