IC:

Message from AFOH High Command:

"To the AIF junior officer, the Australian forces are weak with only a few frigates, submarines and F-35 stealth fighters, and those of New Zealand even more so. They are no match against our quarantine force, much less against the full might of the Coalition. The Federation influence will break with time so there's no need for further bloodshed. We can furnish target coordinates of key military and political installations for surgical strikes should the need arise, but only to your superiors."

The High Command receives a top-level message from the Coalition that agrees with AFOH's actions, but they jointly decide to keep it secret in order to confuse the Federation.

OOC: Proud, I sure hope this was your intended scenario. Boony, the sarcasm is purely IC.
