Roger that. Dispaching ten wings of Orcas, twenty wings of Hammerheads, and five wings of Whales. Whales are Orcas equipped with four slayer launchers, but less weps. They will meet up with you in Leeds.
We will meet in the midst of battle...
And thanks for the Warship plans. I am building a shipyard in Alaska, so i'll start developing a few of them.

btw- How could you have possibly built that huge station by Leeds in so short a time, Outcast/Omega? Seriously, is it possible?

Alliance Army:

Cruiser Shinka
Gunboat Ramaka and Digerio
100 wings of hawks--Dragonblades and Cannonball missles
250 wings of falcons--Dragon blades and Vampire torpedos
100 sucide hawks and falcons--armed with standard alliance weapons, a much harder sheild to destroy, ful of explosive. Enchaned hull

Back stab
20 wings of hawks--standard alliance weapons, cruise disruptors
25 wings of flacons-- Draon blades, vampire and sunslayers ( not on one ship, on diferent ships)

All pilots near death ( except for the cruisers and gunboats) will ram into the cap ships ( if any left) and self destruct. Strong Loyalty to the Alliance pays

Plan:
While the fleet engages the enemy, the fighters will draw the attetion of the cap ships and rest of the ships. The sucide ships will ram into the cap ships to destroy them

The backstab team will enter from behind and kill anything interesting they find. Once they finish, they will also join the atack

Main fleet is at the cloud near Dublin jumphole, ready to move out
Back stab arrives via NL Jumphole and is still at NL ready to jump

the 3rd fleet will split in 2
1) All the fighters will join the outcasts at leeds
2) All the cap ships will remain at durham to protect the gate for a retret. If this is not needed they will act as reinforcement. The former new london gate has been realigned to cambrideg so we will have a friendly place to go to.

Also fleets 10 through 20 are waiting by the realignment gate in New Madrid which is currently set for leeds so if this turns bad then these will jump in as reinforments.(by the way all standered fleets ((I now have 1-24 standard fleets and the new grand fleet (((read the news below))) )) have the same amount of ships.)

Corsair News Network:

Corsairs take dublin:

Today the 1st and 2nd fleets took dublin, aided by the mollys who have now joined us as corsairs and will be granted the dublin system as our troops there. (Things dont look good for bretonia do they?)

Ships in the grand fleet:
Super juggernaught: Nemisis
3 Juggernaughts
12 battleships
21 crusers
600 titans
1200 centurians
2700 legonneres

Hispanic alliance HQ built:
Today work on the HQ (formaly the sleeper ship hispania) was completed. This HQ will hold the new alliance councal which will lead the alliance. Th counsal has a member from every faction that signed the alliance treaty. Also the cambridge resaech labs are now open and awaiting the arrival of all the scientis in the alliance this will enable tecnology to be researched much faster

Orca descovery!:
On board the captured orcas we have found cloaking devises. Work is under way to build this tecnology for the alliance.
