Operation Briefing


The Guild paramilitary must remain up to date to maintain its effectiveness. Guild combat doctrine so far has relied on lightning fast snubcraft strikes that would then fade back into the nebula to avoid reprisals. This is a highly effective tactic, but not one that can continue to be relied on entirely. Hostile capital vessels, large scale attacks on Guild installations and large swathes of open space in Guild territory have made it clear that adaptations to modern warfare must be made.

The development of cruiser and battleship class ships will thus be initiated in order to ensure The Guild is in the possession of the heavy assets required to keep its paramilitary competitive. It will also be necessary to sufficiently train the crew of these ships.







Plan and Execution

The Guild is already capable of constructing its own ships, and the project will be based on Niigata Star City in Sigma-59, which houses ample research and development facilities in addition to its shipyards to be utilised by our scientists and engineers. The creation of its capital vessels will begin here. However, this project will be unlike any previously undertaken, so there is much to learn and time to be spent. The information gleaned from the formerly Imperial Rheinland battleships will be of great use to the design effort and will likely be of significant influence in the final product.

In addition to this data, there are several friendly organisations who have experience that The Guild lacks. Attempts will be made to enlist the assistance of, for example, The Blood Dragons, Kishiro Technologies and The Order to guarantee the efficacy of this project and the strength of the ships it is intended to produce. A compartmentalised approach will be utilised in this respect, in an attempt to maintain an element of confidentiality in the interests of security.
