Freeport relays to: Zoners and militant || From: Phoenix

[Phoenix]

Greetings, fellow militants and Zoner,

The operation was a success: Thanks to your effort, we crippled the Vis so severely that even the Penitence would pity it.
As for its escort, it was nowhere to be seen, likely reduced to a fresh scrap field somewhere by the Core.
The Hyperion sustained moderate damage; however, our powerful Leviathan's cannon and bomber squadrons armed with rage torpedoes inflicted significantly greater destruction upon the Vis.
With these two capital vessels out of commission, they’ll have to re-evaluate their priorities.

But let us not succumb to arrogance. While this strike was a powerful blow to their local forces, they remain a dangerous threat until they are prepared to negotiate an authentic peace agreement.
Perhaps eventually, this event plus their increasing isolation and the dwindling supplies reaching Crete will prompt them toward genuine diplomacy.

In the end, we accomplished our objective. The Vis lies crippled, at the expense of a single Core battlecruiser.

On that note, we leave you with this stream of the Vis getting pummeled by the Hyperion.
