> GALACTIC WAR III - WAR REPORT

> Here are 3 reports from the LoE Offensive against the CC!

> While the first LoE force against Lucitan failed, the backup fleet for the first force defeated all ships and planets presently located within Lucitan. The 3rd largest known and most fortified shipyard of the CC has been destroyed. Current estimates put CC down 20 ships, 1 Starbase, 5 units, and 1 fully developed planet after this engagement.

> Offensive is moving foreward into the next system, Beta Stromgan, where it will destroy a resupply base and 2 ships.

> In Telume, Defensive LoE Fleets destroyed a CC fleet of several carriers and support ships. Presently, the CC mine layer is unaccounted for and presumed operational. Current losses put the CC down 10 ships and over 20 units. LoE Forces suffered minor losses of 4-5 ships per engagement. CC defenses are surpisingly light except in Risa, the current CC primary system and Arakis where CC forces against Grand Fenwick are launching their own offensive.

> If current fleet size and strength hold, along with our secondary fleets making good time, then Risa can be breached in the next 5 Months.

> On a final note, LoE intelligence gathering ships, now stranded in Risa due to the mine fields, have reported that the Forchain forces of the CC are mainly escorts and destroyers. This means that the Victories in Lucitan by the League of Empires and the Victories by Grand Fenwick in Prokalon have eliminated most of the Forchain Captial ships.

> Here, you shall see, is the offensive plan detailing the first LoE offensive against the CC forces under Varma Valaint. Orange lines indicated massive fleet movements and massive ship launches. Tan blast marks indicate the most recent Fleet Victories. Red blasts and arrows show CC movement.

> Please note, this plan is in its final stage of operation. It also uses the new Iggiboo Class Battlecruiser which has proven itself to be a capable foe against it's CC fore father, the Genocide. The Genocide's designs were used in the creation of the Iggiboo with minor changes to the layout of the parts and more shielding.

> On a side comment, this is a great turn around for LoE forces given that 3 turns ago, CC forces where at our doorsteps in Kalden...

> 16 months into the war, League of Empires forces has eliminated CC opposition in Luictan and ended all threats to the LoE fortresses at Kalden! All LoE ships in the regions protected by Kalden are now going on the offensive leaving ports for RISA...

> The 3rd Fleet, now under the able command of Terran General Ames, stands poised to breach Risa in one month at the warp point in Narcisus!!! Mines or not! We shall be VICTORIOUS!

> The 2nd Fleet Under Imperator Lianso Poesa has sadly been forced to destroy the CC installation at Beta Stromgren and is now heading to breach RISA next month! Poesa recently said.... "I, like my comrades, know fully well we can still lose this war, that is why we shall fight on and never surrender! No matter the cost!"

> Finally, the 1st Fleet under the Legendary Pacean War hero from the Scovrion Wars, Legionary Imperator Jerah Haerth, is poised just outside of range of the nearest CC defensive ships. He declined to comment, but under his breath, he mentioned, "Arrogance makes a good ally when used against the CC."

> And there you have it!
> Victory is near as CC forces commanded by Varma Valaint are about to fail! While we share the thoughts of Imperator Poesa, we cannot help but feel excited at this recent turn of events and the fact the war has turned around.

> And on the Grand Fenwick front where Fenwick generals are fighting on 2 fronts...
> Ramtan Forces are launching an offensive, but it is about to come to a close as Grand Fenwick fleets come to bare arms against offending Ramtan Fleets. For the Forchains, Fenwick Generals have reduced fleet sizes, but plan to lay into the Arakis colonies where Valiant's 2nd largest shipyard is.
