GDF Ship needed in VSG/RID104 narrative

Hey Dave. ":)

Just letting you know that we're going to need one of the Greeop Defence Force vessels to escort an important supply convoy from RS space to the Subterrel Sector border, where elements of the Subterrel strike force can escort it further into the sector, to the RS staging area.

The ship (maybe one of the Strike Cruisers?) will appear only in the narrative during the 'changing over the guard', and maybe seen entering hyperspace, as it head back to the Greeop Sector.

This won't be until VSG/RID104, which should be a while off yet . . . but when VSG/RID103 is coming to a close (or maybe part-way through?) you might want to start referencing the request for the supplies and the escort around then. So assuming VSG/RID102 is released soon (*LAUGHS HARD AND BITTERLY*), that would mean you'll want to think about including this plot point around the start of March.

Not only will you have to spare the Strike, but you'll probably have to scrounge up some starfighters to go with it. Even Z-95s, or whatever you have left, will be very useful.

This leads me to another thought . . . I'll make another section for it, though, so that you can reply to this here.

Supply routes to the Core?

This might be a Raven question here, but how are we going about receiving supplies from the New Republic? Our main trade route is the Triton (actually, apparently it's the Trition!) and Rimma Trade Routes, which run through the centre of the Minos Cluster . . . now, assuming we could convince the New Republic to expend the forces necessary to clear that blockage, it seems likely that this would impact directly on the PBF campaign, as they are currently stuck in the contested Minos Cluster region.

So we have a few ways we can address this:

1. We make it so that we can't receive new supplies --- we either need to trade with the local governments (Tarsonis, various locations in the Osiris Sector and the Cadrel Expanse?) or just go without, forcing us to dip into emergency and backup reserves.
2. We have the New Republic assist us in breaking through the Minos Cluster, which assists PBF forces in getting out of there (this would strongly impact on the PBF campaign).
3. Profit.

Anyway, yeah, just some thoughts for you before I go crashing to sleep. :)
