Messieurs, mesdames,
Dear colleagues,

One month ago, I was informed by the director of EFL, Jérémie Dupont himself, of an unregistered facility located at the outskirts of our territory, in Lorraine. I disregarded the information as being unworthy of my time. It'll fall quickly into disrepair owing to faulty construction or negligence on the part of its unwashed owners, thought I.

I am not often wrong. But I was, this time. To this day, and in bold defiance of the norm, San Sebastian continues to exist, vexing us all with its unsolicited, rusting presence. I expect it is packed full of Maltese expatriates, engaged in all sorts of dirty manual labour designed to corrupt our youth with their strange, unnatural drug. While Gallic youth can generally be relied upon when it comes to choosing the right tool to intoxicate themselves, I won't take any risk. I am mobilising our reserve units to form a quick reaction force and remove this installation from the premises ; and all within it. Our colleagues from the Police and Intelligence services are welcome to join in this effort. Here are the details of opération Quiche lorraine.

DESIRED OUTCOME : complete and utter annihilation of the hostile installation known as San Sebastian storage.
LOCATION : Lorraine system, 2D.
PREDICTED ENEMY FORCES : insignificant. Threat level considered low.
REQUIRED ALLIED FORCES : Four Valeur-class battleships at the least. Moderate escort and light fighter screen desirable if can be spared.
TIME : Sunday 21st of Avril, 19h00 standard Gallic time. RV point is Lunéville guard station. NOTE : available units outside of Gallia are advised to meet up with a jump-drive capable battlegroup in the orbit of Leeds, prior to RV time.
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT : No quarter is to be given. Eventual prisoners will be transferred to the GRI unit Les Révélateurs and thus placed under their sole responsibility.

I will be in command of this operation aboard the Téméraire. Any questions, ask them in response to this transmission.

Bonne soirée.

Bonjour, Amiral Chanteloup.

I am happy to report that the Richelieu-class Dreadnought I am in command, christened Dutertre, is at full operational condition, except a pair of prototype weaponary we inquired. In any case, the lack of specific weaponary in question will not affect siege capabilities of Duterte.

We are equipped with a Jump Drive Mark IV and can assist with transportation of critical assets as welll as contribute to the siege.

Rose-Marie, out.

Bonjour, Amiral.

Looks like these vermin took their opportunity, expecting the personnel of Luneville deliberately slacking off.
Such a pathetic thought.
I am deploying Sarcelles immediately in response to that intrusion.

Justice will be served.

Sincèrement

Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Emilie-Sophie de Belmond.

Bonjour, Amiral.

Your transmission has been received and acknowledged. Although we are not capable of assaulting an installation on our own, we have assets in Gallia that will be right for the job. They will provide cover, support the assault, and transport any prisoners that we might take during the operation.

We'll see you in Lorraine.

Mes respects Amiral,

I cannot believe that those inferiors built an installation in our system. I will give a hand to remove that bad thing. Though, the RNS-Sombre.Destin is currently needed on the front, I will let him there.

In my knowledge we have still a Valor avalaible in Ile de France. I will take then the RNS-Landerneau for the siege. The RNS-Bonne.Naissance might help aswell.

We shall throw a good quiche in the Outcasts faces.

Sincèrement

Marine Royal Gauloise, Commandant Pierre Vaillant.

--CONTRE-AMIRAL EVERETT FONTAINE, RNS ALGERIE, LORRAINE--

*The screen flashes with Fontaine's comm-sig momentarily, then reveals the man himself.


Priority transmission to Amiral Chanteloup.

Algerie relocated to LORRAINE defense perimeter. Rendezvous with RNS-DIE, RNS-BONNE-NAISSANCE.

Primary objective identified within defense perimeter. Assault vectors determined. Supply lines are secure.

Probing commenced. Primary objective lacks the standard defense measures expected from such a target.

I recommend the time table for the assault be pushed up to immediate time.


Honneur et Patrie. Valeur et Discipline.

Amiral,
Excellent news. In light of this, you may begin at once. You're in charge while I get on the scene. Leave no survivors.

Bonne chasse.

To all personnel,
San Sebastian is no more. The surprise attack launched yesterday saw to it. No resistance was encountered.

It feels like it was too easy, and reports indicate continued presence of Maltese vessels in the area. There may be another facility out there. Ten million francs to who finds it first.

Additionally, at the behest of our colleagues from the Révélateurs, wargames will be held in Orléanais at the time scheduled for the siege, and elements wishing to partake may still meet in Leeds to be ferried to the designated location. I've opened readership of the wargame's description here.

Have fun and try to learn something out there.
