It is official - the Bretonian Armed Forces have gained complete control of the Crayter Republic military. This puts our enemies dangerously close to Provence and in effect, Ille-de France itself. It could potentially lead to a dangerous collaboration with our enemies and the Maquisards. I am issuing a recommendation to cease all provocations and hostilities with the house of Kusari. Tau-44 will be our next focus.
Orders to the Main Fleet's Cassard Battlegroup
You are to start despatching assault groups to disrupt Crayter's supply lines and weaken their potential resurgence in the system. You have an open hand in taking down any and all Crayter combat vessels you encounter in the Gallic Regions.
Orders to the Gendarmerie
Safety in the inner systems is still a priority, but your supply units are to help Main Fleet operations in the Tau regions against Crayter and Bretonian Armed Forces.
Orders to the Security Bureaou
We must know what we are up against. Your task is to survey Bretonia and Crayter and their military and logistical capabilities, especially in Coronado, Tau-31, Leeds, and Edinburgh. Your hybrid-war arm is to continue attempts at creating a discourse between the hostile parties.
