Speech of Monsieur Hildebrand, President of The Second Grunge-French Republic.
----------------------------

"Honorable Citizen Senators: I am here to give you te result of the first combat of Grunge-France against any other nation using Space Vessels:
The AoE2 Regional Space Fleet, only Space Fleet in our whole Region, and in charge of Grunge-France since its creation, presented resistance to the fleets of Western Might.

Flagship: The "Revolución" Dreadnough, lead by Comodre Armando Nelson
60 MikT Light Fighters
2 "XCL" Space Carriers
4 "Nebund" Battleships
5 "Gorrión" Cruisiers
5 "Eli" Destroyers

The Supreme Admiral of the operation, Commodore Armando Nelson, started the combat by sending the Light Fighters, who acomplished their mission of weakening the enemy to the point of sacrificing their lifes on that: 40 pilots were taken down in this first attack.

The enemy, superior both in numbers and in technology, sent a counter-attack, wich caused us tremendous cassualities, and damaged one of our two battle carriers.

Commodore Armando Nelson, in the Flagship, The Dreadnough "Revolución" decided to leave the Flagship and directed himself to the damaged carrier, wich was neutralized because of his serious damage.
He ordered the 5 Destroyers to escort the damaged carrier, wich mission was to realize a kamikaze mission, then, when he was close enough to an enemy Battleship, he told the rest of the crew of the Carrier and the destroyers to leave the area, and he made impact with the enemy battleship, destroying both his vessel and the enemy´s one.


1st Captain Leon Duran, now in charge of The Flagship, ordered to withdraw from battle, and they are, right now, arriving at the Grunge-French Shipyards located in the AoE2 Regional Space Station.

Our cassualities:

1200 death soldiers
40 Destroyed Light Fighters
2 Destroyed Destroyers
1 Destroyed Carrier
1 Destroyed Battleship
1 Destroyed Cruisier

I now will give, post mortem, the medal "Edmund Duke" of valour in battle to Commodore Armando Nelson, and I will give the medal "Aztec Sun" for combat merits to the rest of the soldiers, pilots and officiers that survived.

Now, it is time to look to the future: This is certainly our only fleet, at the moment, but, after 2 days of negotiations Grunge-France has signed contracts with both Gradenk and Angelus, that will provide us, within a few days, the next things:

a)Several Space Vessels of EXCELENT technology
b)Angelus will lend us Ship Yards to maximize our production.
c)Gradenk will provide us the raw materials

We have also about to get a loan of 1 trillion of dollars, to pay for all this stuff we are acquiring, and to continue building Shipyards of our property (tomorrow the third one will be finished).


Honor and Glory to The Second Grunge-French Republic, Long Live to our Heroes, God saves our Soldiers. "

Empire of Gradenk verifies that the above news is true. And as an insider source to the Trillion dollar aid, We confirm that Grunge-France will be the beneficiary of the money.


The money would be obtained only through an internal source(involving several nations).
