Proving that they do indeed know what they are talking about when it comes to raiding the Skulding, with support from your own forces, hit the Celtic ports hard while they're main armies are away on the French front. Quickly overcoming what few defenders remain the Skulding methodically load the best loot into their long boats and your surviving air ships before retreating back to the north. Your share of the loot is ++ econ.

Your WO is now negative ++ for showing your pirate colors.

Your agents manage to steal + of military equipment from the celts.

Several new airships have been purchased and added to your fleet. You gain - mil. The training of new assassins has improved your offensive capabilities You gain +- espo.

Your raid in Corsica goes poorly. The Corsican defense force itself isn't much of a threat, but apparently both the United Italian States and the Celestial Empire had stationed troops there to help stabilize and defend the fractured island nation. Your raiders are massively outgunned and outnumbered. Fortunately the two fleets do not appear to work well with each and your raiders escape after taking only small losses. You lose - mil.

Your raid against the Ottomans and University goes much better. The Ottomans for one have been subsumed by the Celestial Empire which also provides the defense of the University. And the Celestial Empire appears to have sent large portions of its forces away, probably to Corsica. This has left the Celestial Empire itself somewhat vulnerable and your raiders are able to break through the defenders and plunder several warehouses. Unfortunately splitting your forces mean s that you do not have enough manpower on hand to actually carry off much in the way of loot. You gain + econ.

This message will actually come a bit later after the new turn starts and the news of what you did has had time to spread around a bit. But I didn't want to send two PMs when it wouldn't actually make a difference to the message.

Greetings Privateers,
 * Skuldings to the Holy Privateers**

We can only imagine that your profits were not very great from the fact that your raids alternately failed and succeeded. Now you see why we limit ourselves to only one target. Maximum force ensures that not only do we overwhelm the unfortunate target with minimum losses, but also that we have enough men to do some worthwhile pillaging. So we extend our invitation to you again. While your erstwhile masters cower and hide in France join with us and we will sweep across Europa taking whatever we wish.

Your efforts at buying new material and training your people result in a gain of +- mil.

Your efforts to steal weapons and airships from the KoBS failed spectacularly. Not only are your agents driven off, but they are fairly sure that the Kingdom of the Beshadowed Sun's agents identified them.
