From: Colonel Mehmed Selim, CPW-Matochkin, Zvezdny Gorodok.
We have successfully made contact with the "Frumentarii" splinter group of the Independent Miners Guild who have outlined their situation against the Kingdom of Gallia. Contact was favorable and this group stands to be a useful addition to anti-Gallic efforts. Once we are able to establish more firm cooperation we can proceed in earnest.

[16.12.2016 21:17:51] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: We are coming in from different locations. ETA should be less than 5
[16.12.2016 21:19:14] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Alright, make that... more like 8 minutes.
[16.12.2016 21:19:22] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: My nav map seems to be outdated.
[16.12.2016 21:20:05] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Our automated defenses are firing on one of your pilots.
[16.12.2016 21:27:08] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Alright. Rerouting to the new RV point.
[16.12.2016 21:27:31] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Roger, we're moving to Omega-49
[16.12.2016 21:30:52] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: We have entered Omega-52 and are moving to D2
[16.12.2016 21:31:24] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Affirmative.
[16.12.2016 21:33:31] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Greetings, Coalition Commander.
[16.12.2016 21:33:38] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Hail.
[16.12.2016 21:33:57] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Greetings everyone
[16.12.2016 21:34:02] IMG|Don.Draper: Good evening Commanders.
[16.12.2016 21:34:07] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I am Colonel Mehmed Selim, of the Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army.
[16.12.2016 21:34:10] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Privyet IMG Vessel.
[16.12.2016 21:34:15] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: My name is Sarah O'Riley, and we are happy to have made it here.
[16.12.2016 21:34:40] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Emerson Bradshaw here, I believe we've spoken a bit before, it's a pleasure to be here
[16.12.2016 21:35:13] IMG|Don.Draper: Don Draper, glad we could finally meet.
[16.12.2016 21:35:37] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: So, it is nice to talk face to face, and I think we have quite a bit of questions to cover, I assume.
[16.12.2016 21:35:57] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Indeed.
[16.12.2016 21:36:01] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Do you have any, or do you want us to just start going over the issues?
[16.12.2016 21:36:21] SCRA|C-Libertador: Buenos dias, Camarada
[16.12.2016 21:37:02] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Coalition Command has briefed me on the nature of your organization, although I do not have all the details regarding --
[16.12.2016 21:37:20] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: -- such. Additionally I am curious as to why our automated defenses are targeting your vessels on sight.
[16.12.2016 21:37:34] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: <nods> Alright. Let's deal with the automated defenses first.
[16.12.2016 21:38:02] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: There seems to be a problem with the new transponders. This is a new ship - and it seems to be broken.
[16.12.2016 21:38:51] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Transponder malfunction, hm.
[16.12.2016 21:38:52] IMG|Don.Draper: I think we'll have to check with the Guild and fix those asap. We wouldn't want this in the middle of a battle.
[16.12.2016 21:39:07] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: It isn't the first time visitors have had trouble with this.
[16.12.2016 21:39:08] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Indeed. I will see to have it fixed. It used to be fine in the past.
[16.12.2016 21:39:35] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: But all of a sudden now, things seem to have gone bad. Software update, likely. Anyway, we apologize.
[16.12.2016 21:39:55] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I can concer here, I believe there has been an issue with our Transponders, we are planning a retrofit at singapore
[16.12.2016 21:39:57] IMG|Gremlin: station soon
[16.12.2016 21:40:29] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Until you have fixed your transponders it will make your approach to our facilities quite impossible.
[16.12.2016 21:40:35] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: No need to dwell on it. Let us continue.
[16.12.2016 21:40:57] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: It will not be important for our ships to have a physical presence in your space, if we take a look at the mission
[16.12.2016 21:41:14] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: <nods> You were briefed on the agenda of the Frumentarii?
[16.12.2016 21:41:31] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I know you're after the Gauls, and not much else.
[16.12.2016 21:42:05] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Indeed. The Guild's move to appease the Gallic oppressors might have made sense at ths start. But by now, it has-
[16.12.2016 21:42:29] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: become painfully clear that this assumption of peaceful coexistence was foolish. The Frumentarii believe that false decisions-
[16.12.2016 21:42:42] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: need to be corrected. We are working on exactly this, from inside the Guild.
[16.12.2016 21:43:22] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: So you intend to better align the Guild against the Gauls, rather than for them.
[16.12.2016 21:43:33] IMG|Don.Draper: Let's face it, Gallia is a threat to the entire Sirius, not just us or Bretonia. Actions must be taken.
[16.12.2016 21:43:51] IMG|Don.Draper: Yes, yes we are. They've been allowed to plunder Sirius for far too long.
[16.12.2016 21:44:02] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Though you must remember right now on the surface of things the IMG cannot be seen to be involved.
[16.12.2016 21:44:22] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: <nods> Yes. The rebellion in the Taus is the ultimate goal. But it has to be carefully prepared to not end in massacre.
[16.12.2016 21:44:30] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Typical House narrow-mindedness. But yes, we are aware of the Guild's precarious position.
[16.12.2016 21:45:13] SCRA|C-Libertador: Buenas, camadaras
[16.12.2016 21:45:16] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Privyet, comrade.
[16.12.2016 21:45:29] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Indeed. So, as we clarified the endgame of this, the path that leads us there is what we need to talk.
[16.12.2016 21:45:41] IMG|Don.Draper: It has to be like this sadly. Thousands of lifes are at risk on Java. Everything must be evaluated precisely.
[16.12.2016 21:46:07] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We are no strangers to guerilla warfare.
[16.12.2016 21:46:25] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: It is a difficult positon to be in, our ultimate goal however is to help loosen the grip the Gauls have on the outter
[16.12.2016 21:46:27] IMG|Gremlin: systems
[16.12.2016 21:46:28] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: We are actually talking about a potential eradication of the Guild from all the Taus. Millions would be exiled. So, caution.
[16.12.2016 21:46:52] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Don, your turn. Tell them about our plan.
[16.12.2016 21:47:27] IMG|Don.Draper: We are glad you brought that up. Guerilla warfare is one of our plans. Yet the Guild is not an expert at this-
[16.12.2016 21:47:40] IMG|Don.Draper: -and advice in that field is a necessity.
[16.12.2016 21:48:18] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I see.
[16.12.2016 21:49:17] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: <nods> The Guild is rather good at fighting in the fields, but we will only in endgame attack ourselves.
[16.12.2016 21:49:32] IMG|Don.Draper: We know the ways around the Taus and systems surrounding them. But a proper plan by experts needs to be placed together.
[16.12.2016 21:50:08] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: What we lack is means of communication, means of secretive planning... it's difficult at the moment. We figured-
[16.12.2016 21:50:39] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: that a group that has been fighting all Houses forever must have developed strategies to cope with this hardship.
[16.12.2016 21:50:45] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: You need a means to hide yourselves from House spies and other troublemakers.
[16.12.2016 21:50:57] IMG|Don.Draper: At this very moment shipments of Oil pour through Tau 23, this making our system one of the most important under Gallic control
[16.12.2016 21:53:16] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I believe what we need figure out today is how will this partnership effect us both, you have the military knowlegde
[16.12.2016 21:54:01] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: I have one important question as I have just got good news now: We have green light on the Tau 44 offices.
[16.12.2016 21:54:44] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Carrier Hades has agreed to host a HQ with the necessary infrastructure that we can use.
[16.12.2016 21:55:19] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Hm. Ask your question.
[16.12.2016 21:55:25] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: So, the Coalition would be invited to send 2 officers as liaison to Tau 44, Hades.
[16.12.2016 21:55:47] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Does that make sense to you? Are you willing to streamline our communications and make it more effective?
[16.12.2016 21:56:35] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Coalition Command would likely not be opposed to such a plan.
[16.12.2016 21:56:57] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Great. You are on neutral or friendly terms with the Crayterian forces?
[16.12.2016 21:57:49] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: The Crayterian Republic is considered a friendly Nation to the People's Republic.
[16.12.2016 21:58:11] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Perfect. Our intel was correct. You are alright with being in a room with the Council representatives?
[16.12.2016 21:58:38] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: The Council and ourselves are at most neutral towards eachother, we do not interact often.
[16.12.2016 21:58:45] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: So we wouldn't have qualms about such a thing.
[16.12.2016 21:58:51] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Right now we're working on multiple patnerships to help achieve our goal
[16.12.2016 21:59:07] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Good. You understand that the Council has to be a key element in any actions against the Gallic invaders.
[16.12.2016 21:59:38] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We're aware of the Council's nature.
[16.12.2016 21:59:40] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: We also have the Blood Dragons that are helpful for the Guild - secretly of course. They have been invited as well.
[16.12.2016 22:00:01] IMG|Don.Draper: We plan to expand this alliance further into Sirius. Basically anyone who's got a personal grudge against Gallia, or who-
[16.12.2016 22:00:06] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: It is not yet decided whether they will have a presence in the HQ physically, but to have the cards on the table: we asked them
[16.12.2016 22:00:07] IMG|Don.Draper: -acknowledges their threat.
[16.12.2016 22:00:50] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We have good working relations with the Blood Dragons. They will not be an issue.
[16.12.2016 22:01:03] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I have a quesiton if I may?
[16.12.2016 22:01:15] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Even better. So... yes. Emmerson, your turn.
[16.12.2016 22:01:49] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: If we were to put resources forwards to attacking a Gallic outpost or force what kind of reinforcements would -
[16.12.2016 22:02:11] IMG|Gremlin: we be looking at from the Coalition, as we would like you militray input on any offences
[16.12.2016 22:02:25] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: The Coalition as you know is fighting a war against the Corsair Empire, as such our resources are limited in the Taus.
[16.12.2016 22:02:55] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: We can however should be able to spare a few ships to aid in harassment operations of Gallia.
[16.12.2016 22:03:18] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We can commit light but effective raiding forces to aid an assault on Gallia.
[16.12.2016 22:03:36] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: That is understandable and thank you for any help you can give, I would offer our resources towards the Corsair front-
[16.12.2016 22:03:52] IMG|Gremlin: however I'm unsure on whether or not the guild will be able too just yet
[16.12.2016 22:04:29] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Naturally we can't expect the Guild to fight against the strength of the Corsair Empire AND Gallia.
[16.12.2016 22:04:44] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Thank you for understanding that
[16.12.2016 22:04:56] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: as long as the Guild is not involved in a direct confrontation against Gallia, we can try and influence the -
[16.12.2016 22:05:06] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Guildmastery to increase our Omega efforts.
[16.12.2016 22:05:17] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Once the Taus go up in flames, this ends, obviously.
[16.12.2016 22:05:37] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Indeed, but for now we must focus on the foes you can fight reasonably.
[16.12.2016 22:05:41] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: A dangerous proposition, no doubt.
[16.12.2016 22:06:01] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I agree, we should focus all guild efforts into clearing the Tau's first
[16.12.2016 22:06:14] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: But as the Guild at the current stage cannot hit Oil transports and ammo convoys and troop transports, we need -
[16.12.2016 22:06:32] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Tau-23 is the lynchpin of the Gallic war effort. We hit the enemy where it hurts when it's exposed.
[16.12.2016 22:06:33] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: some assets of allies and friends to do it. We can aid in logistics and mainly intel.
[16.12.2016 22:07:06] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: The Guild has sensors on Java to register Languadoc traffic. We know who is moving when. Pattern can be made.
[16.12.2016 22:07:26] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: The Coalition also can supply small-arms direct from our factories, I doubt all the fighting will purely be ship-to-ship.
[16.12.2016 22:07:36] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Eventually the fighting may come up close and personal.
[16.12.2016 22:07:41] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: That's the intel we are talking, exact, timely on point target intel for precision strikes.
[16.12.2016 22:07:58] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: The few military ships that we do have like myself will be commited in helping you in any gallic offensive if needed
[16.12.2016 22:08:01] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Patrol, back off.
[16.12.2016 22:08:17] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: <curses> Transponders
[16.12.2016 22:09:07] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: I suggest... you send your liaison officers to the Taus. Falkland. We organise the transfer to Tau 44, Hades.
[16.12.2016 22:09:17] IMG|Don.Draper: Ship to ship combat is not in our plans. The Gauls already have superior numbers. Contact with their Navy must be done as a -
[16.12.2016 22:09:20] IMG|Don.Draper: -last resort.
[16.12.2016 22:09:40] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Naturally.
[16.12.2016 22:09:50] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: That would be the best option.
[16.12.2016 22:09:58] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Their Navy may be large, but from what I hear they're poorly trained, but I do agree with you
[16.12.2016 22:10:17] SCRA|C-Libertador: I believe that the VI can be issued instructions to provide support as well.
[16.12.2016 22:10:28] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: The only way to fight an enemy such as that is to hurt their supply chains, without supplies they will eventually wither.
[16.12.2016 22:10:38] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: For now if any offensives do happen I believe we should focus on their shipping first
[16.12.2016 22:10:40] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Carefully and precisely.
[16.12.2016 22:11:03] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Bleed the supplies, spread discontent among the masses, they will fold under the weight of their massive fleet.
[16.12.2016 22:11:24] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Indeed. It's classic insurgency.
[16.12.2016 22:11:35] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: *sigh* Who let these muppets in the Army.
[16.12.2016 22:11:47] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: It is our bugged transponders.
[16.12.2016 22:12:02] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: I assume we should move out anyway. Is there anything we needs to clarify here and now?
[16.12.2016 22:12:08] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: You'd think they would get some common sense. Anyways.
[16.12.2016 22:12:08] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: This will force them to rethink their position and pull back in to their own space
[16.12.2016 22:12:25] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I believe we're good for now, unless anyone has anything else to say?
[16.12.2016 22:13:05] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I believe we are finished here. We will need to report back to the Premier and our superiors of this meeting.
[16.12.2016 22:13:36] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Sarah: Perfect. The Frumentarii say thank you for your help. We are convinced that a cooperation can succeed.
[16.12.2016 22:13:48] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Understood we to need to get back, though we will remain in contact
[16.12.2016 22:14:02] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Best of luck to you then.
[16.12.2016 22:14:45] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Pilots, form up.
[16.12.2016 22:17:01] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: I believe that concludes our meeting here.
[16.12.2016 22:17:09] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: It is done, then.
[16.12.2016 22:17:10] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: Copy that.
[16.12.2016 22:17:11] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: IMG wings, we escort the Gremlin.
[16.12.2016 22:17:17] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: We'll keep an open channel for you to contact us on
[16.12.2016 22:17:25] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Thank you, Coalition Commanders.
[16.12.2016 22:17:29] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Keep it safe. Do svydania.
[16.12.2016 22:17:31] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: It has been a pleasure.
[16.12.2016 22:17:32] IMG|Don.Draper: Glad we have talked. Any further questions should be directed to the Frumentarii only. Thank you again.
[16.12.2016 22:17:43] IMG|Don.Draper: Your help could change the course of the War.
[16.12.2016 22:17:53] IMG|Gremlin: Emerson: Take care and stay safe
[16.12.2016 22:18:06] SCRA|Nikita.Tabakov: We should return to New Moscow.
[16.12.2016 22:18:06] IMG|Sarah.O'Riley: Let us know when your liaison officers arrive in Taus. Good luck.
[16.12.2016 22:18:14] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Pilots, lock on our nav signal and return to Zvezdny Gorodok.
[16.12.2016 22:18:26] SCRA|C-Libertador: Acknowledged, returning to base
[16.12.2016 22:19:23] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Course locked for Zvezdny, let's go.
[16.12.2016 22:20:12] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Communications, get me a line to the Premier and Command as soon as we dock.
[16.12.2016 22:20:57] SCRA|C-Libertador: I'll have to check for any further assignments required, otherwise I would like to volunteer as a liaison officer
