Evidence points to major offensive in mid-august

The DDS are refusing to comment on speculation in the media that a major offensive will be launched on the Utrek in mid-August. Major UNP media outlets are predicting August 15th as a possible U-day when Allied forces will launch a multi-front assault on the Utrek and hope to finally kick them out of Remedian space.

The evidence is as follows :
  • DDS Maintenance Logs are showing that current refit work is due to end at the start of August and no new ships will be accepted for refit until further notice. Ships currently in repair or refit will be finished by then. By the time they get back operational and up to the DDS fleet it is estimated to take until around August 12th.
  • The Dinos are massing a fleet near Loeuss under command of Consul G-B-H. Reinforcements are en route from Dino-Land and Pulsin and will arrive around August 11-12th.
  • The Remedians have called all operational ships (and those soon to be operational) to a secret marshaling point (thought to be near Utrek occupied Mila). If so then analysts estimate all ships will be assembled by August 13th.
  • A Pulsar has left Rathun's World, it's place taken by 2 Aritan Intrepid class destroyers and a Starsystem. The ship is thought to be going to join the Remedian fleet and should get there around August 14th.
Once these forces are assembled it is likely the DDS will want to attack quickly so pencil August 15th into your war diaries.
