[Message Begins]
Today, our comrades seized another decisive victory. This battle was a testament to the strength and resolve of the Coalition. Under my command, we proceeded to Dublin, where we lay in wait. We knew that the Bretonians had called for assistance and we were ready for it.
We waited, the enemy taunting us, claiming we were hiding. It took them a while to find us, though we weren't in a particularly secretive location, being just 27.5k due west of the Battleship Hood. The first wave contained a Destroyer, and several fighters. They asked what we were doing, I answered truthfully. I told them we were here to kill them.
I gave the order to engage the Destroyer, our comrades acting swiftly, the Bretonians were in dis-array for a little bit, giving us time. The Destroyer didn't stand a chance, it was destroyed swiftly. We turned to engage the fighters, each one we downed was unfortunately replaced with another. We lost Dimitrov and Robert Miller at the beginning, but never lost another after that.
Unexpectedly, a squadron of Indians arrived. Both the Coalition and Bretonians knew they'd simply wait until one side finished each other, then attack. We decided to have a short-lived truce to destroy the Indians. At least, that was the official story. In reality, we simply wanted to buy some time to regroup, repair, scan the enemy, and allow the Bretonians to weaken. Once the Indians had been either terminated or dead, I gave the order to terminate a Light Fighter that was sitting still. This restarted the fighting between us.
Another capital ship arrived, I mistakenly thought it was a Destroyer, but to my relief, it was merely a Gunboat. It never really stood a chance. Suddenly, a Molly decided to ask the Bretonians if they needed help against us. I gave the order to attack it, while we were moving towards it we spotted a Rheinland Gunboat, of all things, in Dublin. Both were destroyed before we turned our attention to a Bottlenose that had arrived as well.
Once we destroyed the Bottlenose, the Bretonians gave up. They ran to Essex, we managed to heavily damage them, but not destroy any more vessels. They kept coming away from the Essex and then running back when we shot at them, so I ordered us to fall back. We returned home without further incident.
My commendations to everyone involved, you all performed extremely well, working together to decisively crush the opposition.
For the Revolution, For the People, For the Party, For the Premier. United, we are unstoppable.
