I would like to remind everyone of the Omicron Xi situation and your orders. The environmental situation in München is very unstable. We in the Oberkommando are not sure how long the opportunity to keep attacking the Corsairs directly where it hurts them will last. Those unhinged creatures are the bane of all traders and seriously undermine our economy with their raids - it is of utmost importance to force them to concentrate their resources in one place, away from Rheinland. And that place is Omicron Xi. The Battlegroup Schwerin has done extensive damage to Syros Shipyard, but the Corsairs have been steadily rebuilding since our forces were recalled to the Crow Nebula theater and later home to our unfortunate civil war.
With Rheinland united and Cologne freed the Battlegroup Schwerin is once again ready to strike the Corsairs, however, we are not confident to commit the entire battlegroup fully due to the unstable nature of Munich, and due to Rheinwehr's deep distrust of the Gas Miners Guild and potential of finally conquering Sigma-13 should the opportunity arise. For now, the bulk of the Schwerin Battlegroup remains in Frankfurt. So the orders are as follows: Continue what we have been doing over the past year. Whenever possible, perform strikes against Corsair infrastructure in Omicron Xi, drain their resources, force them to leave Rheinland, and defend their system. Do this while we have the chance - our aim is not to conquer the system due to the potential instability of our connection to it and the risks associated with being cut off from logistical support. Our aim is to deal as much damage as possible, to their vessel numbers, their infrastructure, their manpower, and most of all their spirit and willingness to mess with Rheinland. As you know I am personally taking command of many ad-hoc engagements, and Konteradmiral Alfred Henze is taking charge of focused surgical strikes.
Keep up the good work. With every shot landed on the Corsairs in Omicron Xi you are indirectly protecting the citizens of Rheinland.
Hochachtungsvoll,
Alexander Arnold
Admiral der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
