''Whiskey for me'' Victor smiled. ''As far as Leeds is concerned, yes, i believe we do have a shot. Reports coming out of Tau-44 indicate that the Crayter Republic have retaken the system. That should at least divert a few of their forces, or get them bogged down in a second front. Of course that all depends on the Republic holding Tau, if they can't do that then we may have a problem''. He lent closer and spoke quietly ''I also hear rumours of something big happeneing, HCs got something in the works, something that may very well even the odds for us in this bloody war.''

He lent back. But all i can suggest is keep fighting, i recently took a wing into the Edinburgh system, the plan was to hit some of their transports, make life a bit miserable for them there. We encountered a few privateers. I'll tell you, things might seem bad now, but we're still in this.''

He took another sip, his glass nearly empty ''How do you feel about our current situation?''
