The Void - Tick 444 Cycle 20

 A star reclaimed and new attacks on the cards.

I've retaken the star Evian with Major Tom withdrawing his fleets defending the star and retreating. 

I had a few options here notably a warp gate attack (Siege breaker or smuggler) or a smuggler to attack the east star. I've opted to do a more conventional attack on the easternmost star which should bring some good scan visibility if I can capture it. Reports from my allies suggest TheBorg and Tube-Pipe are throwing everything they have at TdT so they may not have adequate rear reserves.

I have more reinforcements arriving and the Colonel I'll be leaving at Evian will provide some good defence as I intend to keep that warp gate up and active. There's a southbound Infiltrator that previously was fighting Grievous 20 ticks away that can also help with that defence. 


Elsewhere, my allies continue to launch attacks. TdT (CRISPR) is now counter-attacking and Battery is reportedly pushing further south. Batterys efforts are admirable because he's punching against a bigger stronger enemy and he's very exposed (long front line, versus my narrow front line by comparison) We're exerting pressure along the full length of the front line. 

The force at Novy is a problem defensively, but I think HelloThere will be able to deal with that in time. He has the ships to match it it's more a case of rallying them into a unified attack and preventing counter attacking threats. If I can help disrupt the supply lines that will help.

Maps via CRISPR for what he sees. Front lines further south


The TdT/Tube-Pipe front


The Dieste/tube-pipe front. Selfishly I want Battery to be pushing here much more than he is. Even at unfavourable trades he can cause major issues. From his perspective though, I think he's likely playing it well.


We're winning the war and all it should take now is continuing to attack.
