Fragile peace, an illusion, must there be war, again?The annual Sakuradite Producing Nations Conference is to take place in a few days, hence the hasty invasion of the location to kick out the Black Knights representation in the Conference.
Reason: The blitzerg invasions occured only a a week before the annual Conference. It has already been 3 days, and most Britannian forces in Area 11 are tied up with keeping order and combating rebels and the Black Knights. Since there are only 4 days left, Britannia must secure the surrounding area in order to boot the Black Knights out of their share of Sakuradite for the year. The Chinese Federation also benefits as it will take the shares that normally belong to the countries it has taken over. The EU does not benefit and has a neutral stance on the matter.
Pros if Britannia wins / Con if Black Knights lose: The Black Knights are denied Sakuradite (legally) and Britannia gets a increase of Sakuradite to fuel their armies. A Black Knights base of operations is taken out and thus one less hiding place for them and less trouble for Britannia in the long run.
Cons if Britannia loses / Pros if Black Knights win: The Black Knights retain a legal supply of Sakuradite production. Japan can be considered still alive as has setback their aggressor despite their sad and sorry state.
A second attempt will be launched if the first attack(current) fails. Also, the VSD Nighingale is en-route with reinforcements.
On the Black Knights side, there is a possibility of reinforcements arriving (currently)
