The Kusari Exiles

no answer followed from them.

Who'd you send it to? I'll paste it into the government chat, at any rate. I'll say now though, that we would be looking for RP-based terms as well as ingame ones. For example, renouncing all legal and military claims to the Taus and Bretonian systems should Kogen be restored to the throne, etc.

In any case, one aspect you're overlooking with supplies is this: partners who are willing to ship you goods is not a problem. It's how you're paying those partners that is. The Ronin are broke. All of their liquid assets were in Kusari when they were exiled - i.e., that source of revenue is locked down and cut off.

Naval maintenance and supply is paid for by the state. When that little segment of the Navy went rogue, maintenance payments got cut. Even if the Ex-peror managed to keep a tight grasp on his bank statements, he won't be able to bankroll 5 battleships (4 and Satsuma?) as well as the combined support ships.

Samura likes you, but they're not a charity. They're not going to work for free. That's the point of you being in credit to Bretonia. We're slowly tallying up increasingly high stacks of debt on you.

EDIT: About Dab 'being Bretonia'. Not really. He's speaking as, well... A spokesman.
