Guten tag comrades,
Viktor Heinz, reporting from Seva Depot, after Omega tour.
Following systems were scouted for intellegence informations, mainly regarding enemy defensive and offensive capabilities.
Following systems were inspected, partially by Lt. Benes, first officer onboard Gdansk and partially by myself: Omega 5, Omega 11, Omega 41, Omega 47, Omega 55, Omega 58 and Omega 50.
So, lets start.
Omega Five (5)
This Omega System itself doesnt contain any valuable resources, of any kind. Nevertheless, the true value of this system lays in its strategic position. After complete scout mission was done, I found jump holes to Cambridge, Omega 3, 7, 55, 47, and Omega 11. Now, thats lot. Securing this system for anyone would gain lot of opportunities to maintain constant, or partial time raids on any of following systems.
Corsairs presence in this sector is a well known fact. Their fairly remote outpost Cadiz is serving as a front base for attacks on the Hessian side of the system. Since, both sides cant ever get the upper hand the lines of heavy defense were established. Around Cadiz base, in the direction of the Hammen hole, I found at least ten heavy defense weapon platforms. Platforms are simply designed, but still hard to see because they are installed on asteroids. Very hard to see indeed.
For Cadiz itself, the base contains heavy defensive capabilities, it is capable of destroying large attack ships, almost on its own. All raids that Corsairs are doing in Omega 3, Omega 11, and Cambridge system are primarily launched from Cadiz, which makes this base their operational center. A brain for the body. Even more, both sides have placed minefields on their flank positions which makes any offensive operation in larger scales tricky. In the very middle, is the famous Hammen hole. Place where both sides are constantly trying to drain one another. Signs of battle can be seen all over this hole. Wrecked ships are most common.
Omega 41
Totally lacks any valuable resources of any kind, unless again we can do something with tons of just very common rocks. Unlike Omega 5, Hessian presence in this system is limited to a few raiding parties, mostly in the northern sector, which is closer to their lines of supply in Omega 11, and Omega 5. Most of the system is controlled by the Corsairs, which may at any time launch fighters from Leon base, located in the southern sector of the system. Base is lightly protected by three weapon platforms, installed on asteroids.
Signs of constant war can be even seen here, wrecked ships, and mine fields are again can be seen. Unlike most of the star systems, Omega 41 lacks a proper star.
A neutron star, that was once a giant star and later collapsed into what it is at the moment. According to recent research, said event occurred not much after the House's sleeper ships landed in the Sirius sector.
Freeport on the east side of this star is used mostly as trade center and resupply base.
Omega 47
The system contains one usable resource, located in the orbit of a gas gaint, a purple planet named Rabat, located in the south-west corner of this system. Hydrogen, Argon and Neon was found, plus traces of some other gases. The Corsairs tried to get their hands on that wealth, making Casablanca station, the first ever recorded Corsair mining base. 811 AS, after Hessian offensive strikes in this sector, Casablanca fell into their hands.
Corsair threat still remains in this system. In east sector, well hidden in a part of the Walker nebula, the battleship Fes is located. Osiris class, heavily armed, heavily protected. We just had short time to take pictures before Fes managed to disable our shield.
Because of the length of this report, I will stop here. A report regarding the rest of the Omega sector systems will be transmitted shortly.
