Incoming Transmission... Comm ID: Lieutenant Alla Alesky
Subject: Gaian Intelligence Report
To: Commissar-General Ulrich Eleich
I've spent the last couple weeks in Dublin and Edinburgh gathering information as requested, and have finally decided I have enough to file in. I've divided in info into sections for the sake of organization which include; bases, relations, goals, behavior, and tendencies.
Bases:
As they say, it's all about location, location, location. So for starters, we'll look into where the Gaians hang out. Islay base has been mentioned from time to time as far as I know, but we've never actively searched for her. It was probably the only piece of information that was actually fought over, however with a bit of assistance a gunship was tricked into revealing its location. The second base in question I was willingly led to, Skye Base I believe it was.
There are rumors of another base in Manchester, I can't confirm whether or not they were true, nor did I ever ask to avoid being obvious. I've not actually scouted around Manchester personally either, so it would be something to look into for future information should it be required.
Islay Base ' Base in Edinburgh shielded by detection by a cloud known as the 'Islay Cloud' ironically enough. It appears Armed Forces vessels stumble near often, but never actually close enough to locate the base. It seems the surrounding cloud disrupts signals between navigation systems, and occasionally comms systems as I experienced personally.
Skye Base ' Located in New Castle, and is virtually in the middle of nowhere amongst an ice cloud that covers it from view from long distances. There doesn't appear to be any system-jamming qualities about the field, nor would their need to be given that the closest hostile environment to the Gaians from Skye is a fair distance away.
Goals: As far what the Nature's Last Hope wishes to achieve, I honestly couldn't tell you. After careful observation all I could gather was that they were in the middle of restructuring some of their relations. Beyond restructuring they appear to have no goals, nothing; no piracy, terrorism, protesting, or anything of that nature.
Relations: The Gaians are rumored to be getting friendly with The Order, I heard it myself, but haven't actually seen any proof of it. There was an Osiris in Edinburgh, but they seemed rather concerned about it. There are also rumors that they wish to break from the Corsairs, at least some of them, and that may or not be true given some of their actions, such as avidly defending myself from Corsairs with implications of force if need be. There also appears to be some friendly relations with the Hogosha and the Colonials, given some of the technology used by the Gaians. It appears that the Gaians have no immediate allies or people to call in within Bretonia, and the closest ones they have seem subject to being cut off soon.
Behavior: From what I can tell, this is a rather peaceful group that only appears to act in self-defense. They also appear to be a rather loyal group as far as I can tell. There were a few instances where I was threatened due to my affiliation, but there was never any time wasted making it known I was to be left alone. I will admit that I can't tell if this is only because some of them have grown fond of me personally, or if the same courtesy would be extended to the rest of the Coalition.

[NLH]Miley.McGreave: No it ain't...
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Love is thick in the air.
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: *Sighs deeply*
[NLH]Miley.McGreave: And I would advise -you- not to insult him as long he is with me...
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: if they don't like being insulted they should have kept their sticky fingers off my yacht
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: I've never touched your yatch.
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: one swine equals another, you're all the same
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Hehehe, I wouldn't be so sure.
[NLH]Miley.McGreave: Yeah they should too. But Islay is a "Non-Fire_Zone" as long as my friend stays here.
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: The last person to insult me was Jameson.
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Ask him how it went.
[NLH]Miley.McGreave: So please shut the blaming...I think he hasn't done anything to you.
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: well Jameson is a wuss
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Indeed.
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: he ain't much of a challenge
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: A wuss with a loud mouth.
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: And you are?
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: undefeated
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Well if you keep insulting me, maybe we'll put that record to the test sometime.
Kaizoku|Tengoku: Yuka: didn't you hear the lady? Islay is a NFZ
[NLH]Miley.McGreave: *she looks around...the situation is making her nervous*
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Hence, "sometime."
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Not now, but later.
SCRA|Alla.Alesky: Somewhere more appropriate.

Based on these past events it helps me confirm to an extent the rumors about Corsairs. Regardless of whether or not their diplomacy is about to change, it is rather obvious their bond is far from that of anything strong. It also appears that Gaians are interested in taking something of a more neutral approach to us, at least from what I can see. It could go beyond that, as I'm sure you recall Miley McGreave assisting us during one incident in Dublin, having been there personally.
Tendencies: It appears that the Gaians mostly idle around in Edinburgh doing nothing useful or harmful from what I can tell. Sequoia is the only one that appears to be out and about, probably handling diplomatic talks. From what I hear she's not a stranger in providing 'benefits' to ease the deals along. Occasionally the Gaians appear to make visits to Kusari and the Taus, straying away from Dublin and the heart of Bretonian.
Conclusion and Analysis: Personally, I don't find the Gaians to be a thread to us or Bretonia as a whole currently. I doubt they are without goals, but they seem to be too small to accomplish them all their own. Depending on what those goals are, they may prove to be a useful ally for the time being, at least providing a foothold in Bretonia, without fear of being stabbed in the back by the Mollys for example, whom I have found shooting comrade Steiner the day after I save them. The Mollys also appear to be a rather useless bunch when it comes to the Armed Forces guardians, the Outcasts.
However, the Gaians have no such issues dirtying their hands with the likes of the Indians, Outcasts, or Armed Forces. There is also the rumor of that base in Manchester which needs to be confirmed. It would provide a useful staging point between Liberty and Bretonia for smaller projections, and make our heading direction hard to detect.
Regardless of these facts, it is kind of common knowledge that we can't dig for enemies in this area. Especially those who will not act as the aggressors and the point stands they are not without their uses. As they lack an immediate ally in the area, it is also likely we could get them to agree to our terms, with little resistance if any. That concluded my thoughts on the situation.
