With the rushed declaration of war, or however the higher-ups and politicians prefer to call it, of Bretonia and Crayter against us, we were forced to react. Assets with a previous of economical and commercial focus had to be redistributed into security and military funds. As Defense Manager of Falster Station my new task was to improve our defense grid here in the Wilkes Ice Field. Highest priority had the upgrade of our weapon platform network from five to seven - adding two additional Type 2 Anti-Capital weapon platforms to our already existing four and the Type 3 Anti-Snub weapon platform. With the additional platforms integrated into our defense grid, we are able to increase the effective area of denial around Falster Station, ensuring the enemy is required to stay at range as otherwise the devastating turrets of our array will melt them down.
This upgrade is finished now and the platforms have been deployed successfully. Falster is not invulnerable, but should Bretonia and Crayter wish to continue their siege, they will need to pay a high price for every single inch they try to get closer to us.
This is only possible because of the cooperative attitude of our pilots, our allies and our sympathizers. We had a few troublesome days with the Red Hessian Army, however today the men and women of Generalmajor Anna Heinrich are proving in excellence that combining our strength can even make a mighty house fear us and regret their decision to wage war on us.
This graphic shows the deployment locations of our weapon platforms and other defense modules. Our SHIELD MODULE is currently operating at 100% with a damage absorption rate fluctuating between 95% to 99%.
Our ANTI SNUB PLATFORM has been slightly moved to cover the area between the Aland-Freeport 1-Lane and the Aland Hangar Bays to intercept anything approaching our defense grid using the lane connection. Should Bretonia try a Forced-Entry-Scenario with breaching pods, this platform will take care of it.
Most importantly however is our freshly upgraded network of ANTI CAPITAL PLATFORMS, perfectly arranged to not offer a single weak angle for capital warships to attack Falster Station from effective range. As it stands, the only ways they can continue the siege is by relying on inefficient artillery weaponry or by painfully taking the shots. The latter will melt them in minutes and seconds, the former allows our pilots and our allies to take down the enemy while they can't move freely within the Wilkes Ice Field. We are at great advantage here.
That would be all for now. Let's hope everything works out as intended. We managed to finish the repairs on the outer armor only two hours ago.
