Herr Zimmer,

your report is certainly troubling. The Bundschuh, while willing to assist against the Corsair threat, have gotten increasingly bolder in interdicting resource extraction efforts. As you will hear soon enough from more public channels, we have taken a significant step in countering the Imperio's presence in Luneburg. Now, it may be time for the next phase of the overall initiative. You will find that additional assets will be patrolling the critical sectors, and indeed more will be staged at our installation in the area.

However, I must caution you against making.. hurried conclusions. Let the intelligence services do their work in this regard, and continue to do yours. I earnestly hope that your kapitans will be secure in the knowledge of the newly available assets. But they must not get ahead of themselves with needless accusations. Observe, document, and forward the information like you have done today. Rheinland's security services will handle the rest. If you do not like this answer, then consider the following question: would you prefer to deal with small-scale raids, or a system-wide offensive against Wichter Station, with all that entails?

I hope we understand one another, mein Herr.

Hochachtungsvoll,
Alfred Henze
Großadmiral der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
