Mister Jansen,

though I or even the people fighting for our Separatist movement might not agree on all actions or the ideals of the Unioners, I feel like we do agree on enough to make our alliance viable. Especially since we do not intend anything for and within Rheinland.

Now I can agree that our operations within Liberty can be called more than successful. The same can be said for operations further in Liberty where my ships fight together with the Hackers. I would have suggested more of a cooperation but that is open for discussion in another place.

Now I received the reports about my ships from your operative. It seems the Chicago could be restored to combat status and is prepared to move out.

Repairs for Baltimore seem to be running but I'm told that it is missing parts. Now I currently have another cruiser stationed within Bering. The New Jersey. It is not fit for any form of heavy combat anymore and it is not capable to power up cruise. It cannot be helped but we are willing to move it to Pacifica to dismantle what is left to fix our other vessels.

For our other ships, we can mostly handle the repairs for our snubcraft wihin our own hangars as long as we have parts. It is the gunboats that are starting to lose out at having the maintenance of a Liberty shipyard. As with our snubcraft we'd have to do some reworking especially of the engine components to make sustaining them viable. Though as with the cruiser we have crippled vessels that we are willing to give up to sustain the others.

The biggest problem we have yet to face is the Harmony. She's been in heavy combat since our escape from Alaska. These uncommon fighting conditions were difficult to adjust to and she is not built for the kind of action we force her into. Repairs alone won't suffice if we sustain her. And we have to. It is not only an excellent ship but also a symbol for us.

If your shipyards would be open and your supply lines free I would like to plan changes to her. My technicians should be able to work together with your engineers to devise changes more suited for this kind of operation.

Admiral Knight out.
