Polar Expedition Proposal

Post by Nathan »

I would like the Marshal's opinion and approval of this expedition proposal.

With the approval of polar research station New North Alrodria all but assured, we need some icebreakers to get us there. Unfortunately the only shipyards that make them are seemingly-defunct KRS in Gotzborg. Digging through the design files I found a rather overpowered and bulky hull design, perfect for the stress put upon the hull of an ice breaking ship. With a few modifications it was soon converted into an icebreaker. Named in honor of a city in the south polar kingdom of Alrodria that once belonged to Natopia, the Harthago class.

Following the trail of the Harthago will be a supply and personnel transport.

A nominal escort of two Vista de Nadas and two Ziegelands will accompany the expedition across open water.

The mission is approved. I regret that the current business with the Grand Commonwealth has regrettably limited the amount of resources I can afford to allocate to the Polar Expedition.

I suggest that the landward mission should consist of no more than 150 volunteers, supported by 50 Grievar, preferably with the latter armed with autocannon. I may draw up some more detailed suggestions but I have a small matter to attend to on Tapfer first.

The port of Caligae is always at the disposal of friends. Should you wish to go there for resupplying or for tourism, you may very well do so :-D

Natopians aren't as scary as Babkhans.......

Which is an idea - Babkhan scientists on a Natopian vessel? Face saved all around?
