Calling all Federation Commanders - We are at War with the Empire

For the past few weeks, a team of the Federation's bravest and most committed commanders have been involved in a top secret undercover operation within Imperial space. These commanders have flown together and fought together as one under the codename of this mission - Operation Blossom.

The phase 1 objective of this operation has been to destabilise a key Imperial target location and push it to a point where the Federation can take control of the system. We have been forced to take these actions as our intelligence confirmed that the Empire were secretly using this system as a base of operations to launch an attack against the Federation.

The details of this operation have now been declassified and the original mission briefing document that was secretly sent to selected Federation Commanders can be viewed publicly for the first time. Note that some elements of this operation are still classified to protect the lives of our agents working out in the field.

However, as of last night our worst fears have now come true. The attack on the Federation by the Empire that this operation was trying so desperately to prevent has begun. The main imperial faction in Liaedin have expanded into the neighbouring system of Volungu and have started a war against the Federation. We can no longer defend the Federation against the threat of the Empire through this covert operation alone and are requesting all Federation commanders to come and aid us in this cause immediately.

My respected Federation Commanders, we must raise the Crimson Fortune Company's influence in Liaedin and force them to start a war in that system. We will then fight in that war against the Empire, we will fight as one and we will win.

Out of the ashes of The Battle for Liaedin, the Federation will be reborn. No longer will we be forced to hide in the shadows as the strength of the Empire grows.

For those commanders who are still searching for their purpose in this galaxy and finding the elusive goal of amassing personal fortunes in credits to be non fulfilling, I ask you to join the Federation and fight in this war alongside us.

I won't lie to you, the road ahead will be difficult. Expect strong resistance from the Empire who will not give up this fight easily. Imperial groups are already suspicious of what is happening here in Liaedin, they will try to stop you, they will threaten you but you must not falter in the face of this resistance. Our brave agents have faced this terror and looked it in the eye and we now know the face of our enemy. We cannot let these self proclaimed emperors dictate the futures of so many.

Now is the time to choose your allegiance commanders, now is the time to defend the glory of the Federation against the might of the Empire.

Update - Federation commanders, the absolute top priority right now is the official community goal at Jemison Refinery in Volungu known as "In Defense of Volungu". We need to complete this goal as quickly as possible to progress well into the next stage of this conflict. Doing well here will stand us in good stead for the next chapter of this story and I cannot stress enough the importance of this. Rally all the troops you can and head to Volungu and defend the Federation.

Federal Navy coming? ISS will send two recruits in their sidewinders (ok, eagles). It should be enough to stop the "Federal Navy".

You surely meant imperial fighters.. why waste a perfectly good sidewinder that can do some courier missions while the one man fighters send the Feds home with bloody noses.
 
Does this explain why there have been so many ships in Liaedin over the past week or so? I've met some interesting people but there have been a lot of interdictions etc.

Galnet and Radio Sidewinder said a ceasefire had been made between the Empire and Federation. Was that a lie?
 
White text on white background. :(

Yes, yes I know it's because I've changed the forum theme but I cannot abide that default dark theme.
 
Guess where I will be heading tonight!!! Time to smash up some feds and keep hold of a system in the process. Empire all the way!!!
 
YEAH!! crap on people trying to have fun, that's the spirit!

You rock!

Having fun by doing war without any reason ?.

Go open play on warzone.

Other behavior will be PK over dudes with smaller ships.

This is not fun, just bored angry people.

The ceasefire was between major, organized groups. This is kinda "GalAnonymous"... an organized group without a label. Or a rogue Fed fleet. Whatever.
Anyway the conflict they are referring to is taking place in Volungu. AFAIK, Liaedin is still in peace.

Oh okay, thanks. It's only in the last couple of weeks that I realised there were large-scale groups of players working together behind the scenes, like the East India Company and Merchants' Marines. It's kind of cool that there are some clandestine ones out there, too.

I believe the insurgence on Volungu was launched from the Empire system of Liaedin.
