OK,

There's been some mixed messages about the Delve deployment so I'd like to clear some air. I get the frustrations we've all had, I'm sharing them. So, we all need a break, it's evident, there's also a strong message I'm getting from CEO's and Directors about the "constant 180's" this alliance has been doing.

1. This initial convoy we're starting this week is to get ships and logistics in place. Move some clones down there and get some ships staged. Basically we'll move our Alphafleet + some ships and get setup to deploy.

This will be the first phase.

2. Over the next week I would like you guys to take a break, move your corps down nice and smoothly. Get your logistics chains (cynos) setup so you can support yourselves. Get some ratting in and replenish your wallets.

Starting October 24th is when the deployment and our presence will be fully needed. This is our second phase.

So, this week, we'll start getting some pilots moved down to Fountain for the ones who have been dieing to get into the action. This is going to require the assistance of the alliance in that we'll need to make sure they get down there in relative safety. So, joining up in the convoy fleets is a way for you and your buddies to get staged in Y-2A, for the deployment which will start in the coming weeks for us.

This allows your pilots to get some iskies, take a chill pill and relax for a bit. It also allows for you all to plan and get the ships necessary into the hangars of your pilots. This is more than enough time and our allies haven't really asked for our help much down there but are now. They realize FA has been under the gun since we moved to the north and get we are in dire need of some slight downtime. This is your downtime. Use it wisely. The winter is coming™ and we'll do our best to pace you all in a way where you enjoy logging in, you have an opportunity to shoot bad dudes while also having a chance to do exploring and enjoy Fade, the region you all worked so hard for.
