Re: A War for the Stars
Admiral Wiers' private log, SGY 2402.2:
Chief Ambassador Reima has established regular communications with the Hutt. He has laid out a plan under which we will maintain good relations with our neighbors by offering them goods that are not essential to our defense program. The Hutt will receive one such shipment this tenth.
Comet II is on its way to Gesaril IX, a huge airless world where we hope to build a strong industrial base.
We will soon have our first ground troops. These will be security forces, fit only for police work and parades, but seeing the Imperial Army is enough to make most people feel safe and happy, which translates directly into more production for the Empire. Our plans call for one security battalion* on every Imperial colony in the sector; Colonel Sheer, now promoted to Brigadier General, will be in charge of these troops.
* - 1 Army battalion = 80 infantry troop units.
