Servants of le Roi! As our forces continue their deployment at our Leeds Forward HQ, many of us are wondering what we're doing on this on this smog-clogged world, and why we continue this war far away from home. Know that I understand your sentiment and share it. A few years ago, I too would've preferred to focus on securing Gallic borders and the Core Worlds.

Once our forces arrive, I will hold a briefing explaining our purpose in this foreign land in full detail. But until then, here are the standing orders:

• Assist la Marine Royale Gauloise. They have the strengh and numbers to be the sword, the shield, and the hammer of le Roi. We can't match their numbers, but we can be His Majesty's eyes, ears, voice, dagger, or whatever else he requires us to be.
  
  
• Secure Leeds for our own needs. The planet is the only fledging bastion of civilization in Bretonian space. This is where we'll be spending the coming months, spreading the word of the King and our ways among the populace. Retrieval of any data from our ships lost on Leeds in the offensive is a priority.
  
  
• Make your presence known. Prove yourselves on the battlefields, if that's what you're best suited for. Spread our doctrine if you feel that your breath won't be wasted by doing so. Prove that we deserve to rank among the King's finest.
  
  
• Remain discreet where it counts. Don't draw the unwanted attention of our enemies, for they are many. Regroup with other Gallic forces if you are outnumbered. Once our main forces arrive, we'll have more freedom in our operations, but until then we're at a disadvantage.
  
  
• Survive to see another day. Oui, the mission comes first and survival comes second. But if you perish, you won't be there when le Roi needs you again. Ships can be easily replaced, and trained soldiers not so much.
  

The King commands it. Remember, his word is law. Until the promised briefing, that would be all.
