Broadband Transmission from Devras:


Having seen the chaos and unwillingness to work together that seems to inundate Mars, and having been little impressed with the supposed loyalty and honesty of the denizens there, we have made the executive decision to leave. Thus far all we have seen is petty bickering, dishonesty, lack of honor, and a casual attitude towards WMD's that we simply cannot abide.

I cannot help but agree with the summation of my good ally, Lord Lucius Lancaster. This being the case, the lands formerly held by and known as DLN Mars have been sold for an undisclosed amount. At present, all citizens and material assets are being withdrawn back to our native soil. Any interference with this withdrawl and subsequent changeover will be regarded with extreme predjudice. Upon full withdrawl of our peoples, these lands will be handed over to Lord Melkor and the Imperium. This is a legal sale of properties, and will be observed and respected as such by the other nations of Mars, or there shall be consequences of a most unfortunate sort.

Let it be known that once this transaction is complete, we wash our hands of the entire affair, and leave you to your warmongering and strife.

The citizens of DLN Mars had been quietly gathering their things for the past few days, trying not to make anything too obvious. One by one overhead, far away from the fighting, the Dominion ships of Angelan make slated to take them home popped in from their jumps, and with precision and care learned from observing the Iraqstan refugee operation, began a schedule of slow, measured landings at the designated areas.

People and equipment and belongings were all loaded, and one by one, the ships begin to make their way back.

The small exodus had begun.

At once, Shipyards in orbit deployed dropships to occupy the newly acquired lands. Three gravship fleets lumbered slowly out of the various shipyards, assuming a neat formation as they prepared to enter the atmosphere. The 2nd Fleet took a position over the much contested Kinslayer territory, and the 3rd and 5th headed for DLN and former Burnantonian land, repectively.

If all went according to plan, 5,000 troops would be on the ground to secure their respective holdings within the hour.

[ooc: to justify my rather hasty upcoming deployments: the Imperium has been secretly mobilizing and calling up reserves during this entire standoff. suffice to say, we've got a lot of troops about to jump in here: maybe shake things up a little more :twisted: ]
