SENDER: Commander Nodoka Hanamura, Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: PENNSYLVANIA RESISTANCE GENERAL NET SUBJECT: Multifaceted
Siara, I've relieved Setsuna for the moment from strategic oversight on this campaign. For the rest of you, I'll briefly introduce myself - I am Nodoka Hanamura, leader of Battlegroup Ouroboros. Suffice to say, both Erie and Pennsylvania served as home for me after circumstances I've told Siara about at least, somewhat - years ago. That being said, I won't regale you with what you've already probably heard from Setsuna.
As much as I appreciate the Xenos being something resembling useful for once, I feel extending forces beyond the theater to run say, transport interdiction won't bring about any sufficient material benefit for our forces. We need to hit them close to home, at home, or not at all. They are waging a war on three fronts - here, Kusari and in Inverness. The majority of their forces are going against Kusari, as they are a peer adversary that poses the most threat. Auxesia is about the same size as we are, but they have a technological advantage. We're the lesser threat, but maybe we can exploit that.
I'm not suggesting to underestimate them, far from it. Smaller in numbers they may be, they are still formidable. If we are going to cripple their logistics, the best course of action is to hit that satellite depot in system, or at least until we feel confident enough to commit to the action, run interdiction in system to either destroy or pirate transports to hurt what they're bringing to and fro. Bonus points if we can find transports carrying troops aboard.
Liberty can try to replace ships, armaments and supplies. But they can't replace men so easily.
That being said, the usual doctrines are best to accompany this - hit and run attacks on patrols, whittling down their numbers - even if you can't destroy one, damaging a capital enough will at least see it a couple weeks in dry-dock getting repairs. And once we bring down that supply satellite, they are going to rely heavily on transports from New York to bring in supplies - which we can then exploit through the usual means.
