This is update on a current state of affairs.

Civil conflict is unfolding in a House of Rheinland. Jingoistic imperialists backed up by a major native Rheinland corporations, Kruger and Daumann and Unioner movement are fighting former federalist government. As "imperials", this is how we name them from now, are primarly comprised from ultra-nationalistic military elements they have got upper hand and currently hold contor over majority of Rheinland territory. Büro des Marinenachrichtendiensts or Büro has pledged allegiance to legitimate federal government and is currently stationed in a system of Thuringia.

As BDM are our partners and we might want to cooperate with them further, we are going to help them in their fight. We are starting to conduct activity in a Rheinland territory, codename CODE VIRIDIAN. Currently, this is small-scale activity to gather more intel on Unioner interposition, intel on possible Nomad infestation, further cooperation with friendly parties in Rheinland and to secure Federalist positions in Thuringia. Any vessel is authorized to enter Rheinland on it's own accord to observe situation and log everything you find valuable or interesting. You are not authorized to use lethal force against adversaries of Covenant unless you are being attacked. Do not intervene in a fights unless parties friendly to Covenant are being involved - Red Hessian Army and Lane Hackers. Most valuable data is direct confirmations that Unioner terrorists are working together with corporations or imperial military and involvement of Nomad elements.

Our interference in that region is also justified by Order activity in that region of Sirius, namely Omega region. Few days ago we have encountered Order science vessel in Omega-2. We tried to persuade personell aboard to defect but it hasn't succeeded thus we destroyed it. Unfortunately, dead ship crashed into a modular ship and we couldn't retrieve any valuable data from it. This one encounter is not very fruitful on information but as a part of CODE VIRIDIAN it is advised to patrol Omega sector. It is possible to use Red Hessian installations but be advised not to use them in a close proximity of Imperial or Federal forces.

Do not stop operations in Omicrons and keep close eye on what is happening there, we might strike there as soon as there's possibility.

Good hunt, brothers and sisters.
