Hey TSP!
The first two-thirds of the month was relatively quiet due to fash-bashes in Brebina and elsewhere, but we spent the last third of the month sieging and waiting in UEPU.

Notable Operations
There was a noticeable downtick in defenses, probably largely due to the fash-bash raid in Brebina. The major raid this month was UEPU, which we spent the last 10 days of the month in and had a whopping 16 liberators show up for, the most SPSFers in an update for several months. We sieged UEPU for four updates and spent the rest of the month waiting and piling up influence.

Tidal Force Recap
This month was the third since the Tidal Force’s revival. The Tidal Force is TSP’s off-update force, for people who want to defend but aren’t available at update times or don’t have Discord. In January, the Tidal Force had the following 9 detags: Imperial Death Dead Banana Place, South Osea, Accelerated, The Reaches of the Darkest Depths, Vograterean Centre, The Governors Alliance of Virgil Twelve, Anti Raider Union, Fridgefield, and Moestuin. If you are interested in the Tidal Force, then check out this dispatch !
Contact and Conclusion
Even though we had reduced numbers of defenses this month (mostly due to less chasing opportunities), you guys showed up when it counted in UEPU. We had a whopping 16 liberators show up on the first update, the most since the liberation of South Pacific last July.
If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns, just let me know! We’re open to any suggestions to make the SPSF a better defender force.
