All good things come to an end. Vanguard started out as a merger of Guerilla Republik and Earth Systems Alliance about 10 months ago that was arranged by Cynic. A lot has changed since then. In those ten months, we have had our ups and downs. The challenges have been immense. However, we have never fallen into complacency and have always evaluated our options carefully in terms of how to best proceed on our journey on Orbis. After careful deliberation, we have chosen to join our friends and former Vanguardians in the New Pacific Order. We see this as an opportunity with lots of promise and they have been accommodating to our needs every step of the way. We thank everyone who has shown us kindness for their support especially our former treaty partners, Rose and the Viridian Entente, along with our associates in Arrgh. We also thank everyone who has been part of Vanguard past and present for their contributions to the alliance. While our members transition, the Vanguard affiliation is under the protection of the New Pacific Order. Carter0912, Commander MrHat, Lt. Commander NationRuler, Lt.
