BRIEFING COMMENCES:
M.I.D.A.S.
Mid-Range Asteroid Station
After inital plans for the construction of a Mid-Range (80-90k planear) asteroid base in the tau systems, a joint operation between the SCRA corps of Engineers and the Order Science Teams was abandoned after the events of the dissolution of the alliance. Members of the Politburo - The High Command deemed that the technological advances, and the wisdom of the plan should be put to better usage in designing a similar resupply/operational support base in the region.
Plans that were confirmed with the Gallic Invasion of the Tau/Bretonian systems.
It has become even more imperative that a forward operations base be established within the Gallic Territories, especially given frosty relations with the indiginous revolutonary movements of Gallia.
Members of the Gallic Brotherhood that defected with the Council Redemption flagship DuGalle, and current inhabitants of the L'Acadie reclamation project on JiangXi have proven invaluable in providing intelligence and support in selecting the best locations for construction of this project to commence, however the opening of the previously sealed jump gates, has given rise to new opportunties for us to establish MIDAS closer to the heart of Gallia.
Technologically the Corps of Engineers reports readiness to commence digging the tunnel systems in the asteroid. Mykolaiv and Volgograd Industrial both confirm the readiness of a defensive shield system for the project, as field tested on Freeport One and Freeport 6.
We are poised, awaiting further orders from High Command on proceeding.
