Extended Operations Report
Routine patrol, I saw a ship, identification (=)"Civil:Servant" enter the Westerwald. I visually identified the ship as a gunboat despite being outside targeting range, and quickly switched ships on the Carrier Saar to something more maneuverable and suited to escape before continuing after the target. Within Thuringia, around Planet Gotha, some form of alien was alongside another gunboat, identification (=)"Seven-of-Swords". I maintained distance due to protocol. Two other Bundschuh, identification Rheinfalke and (=)Lancette entered Thuringia. All three held peaceful conversation with the alien, which matches the Direktor's reported criteria for the alien "Harbinger", doubly so considering the drone it dispatched. Whatever kind of missile it fired disabled my guncam. Audio recordings remained intact, and salvaged guncam images have been included.
I received on-site orders to not engage the Bundschuh as per a set of internal protocols. As per the encounters herein outlined, I formally request those protocols be reconsidered, if not amended or rescinded.
Afterwards, I accompanied Direktor Viper as security detail. I disclude details from that in this report as I was an ancillary addition, and reporting it is more suited to a primarily involved agent.
[12.04.2024 19:36:36] BDM|U-175: RO: It seems there is a hostile presence within the sector.
[12.04.2024 19:36:59] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Indeed. One unknown alien target and one Bundshuch having a nice little chat with it.
[12.04.2024 19:37:07] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Callsign Seven of Swords.
[12.04.2024 19:37:12] BDM|U-175: RO: I know.
[12.04.2024 19:37:29] BDM|U-175: RO: Was on the Heidelberg until I saw the alien.
[12.04.2024 19:37:55] BDM|Hauptcharakter: I also saw a callsign Civil Servant entering the Westerwald. Didn't pursue due to shipclass outmatching.
[12.04.2024 19:38:06] BDM|U-175: RO: You could report it to us.
[12.04.2024 19:38:06] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Not much point engaging a gunboat on a Heavy Fighter.
[12.04.2024 19:38:29] BDM|Hauptcharakter: It was during my current patrol
[12.04.2024 19:38:41] BDM|Hauptcharakter: I tend to write after-actions... after action.
[12.04.2024 19:38:54] BDM|U-175: RO: I'll be on the lookout.
[12.04.2024 19:40:15] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Maintaining distance. Radio if you need backup.

[12.04.2024 19:57:17] Rheinfalke: Now that is rather rude.
[12.04.2024 19:57:22] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Cut your engines. Restricted area.
[12.04.2024 19:57:47] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Thuringia is no place for a Bundschuh.
[12.04.2024 19:58:09] Rheinfalke: Oh, is it now? Well. You should probably be more worried about that Unknown contact on our scanners, no?
[12.04.2024 19:58:36] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Probably. I've got enough guns to go around.
[12.04.2024 20:01:11] Rheinfalke: Ion Storms. I love them. Uh, where was I..
[12.04.2024 20:02:28] Rheinfalke: Hey, MND. You got an angry space cloud... there.
[12.04.2024 20:02:36] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Clocking alien. Think I can hit it?
[12.04.2024 20:02:59] Rheinfalke: It's chasing you.

[12.04.2024 20:03:42] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Huh, actually got it that time.
[12.04.2024 20:05:09] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Back in the marines we had a buddy system.
[12.04.2024 20:05:23] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Does that apply to...
[12.04.2024 20:05:27] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: This isn't the Marines now agent.
[12.04.2024 20:05:28] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Whatever the hell this is?
[12.04.2024 20:06:37] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Well...
[12.04.2024 20:06:40] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: Very spiteful.
[12.04.2024 20:07:48] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: Never seen a war form move that fast.

[12.04.2024 20:08:07] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Target down. That thing was annoying as shit.

[12.04.2024 20:08:46] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Bundschuh in league.
[12.04.2024 20:08:48] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: Yes, and their combat prowess was analysed.
[12.04.2024 20:09:15] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Cool. This job is definitely not the marines.
[12.04.2024 20:09:17] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: Why the /fuck/ do you keep saying that? You have honestly no deduction skill what-so-ever.
[12.04.2024 20:09:18] (=)Lancette: Bundschuh in what?
[12.04.2024 20:09:35] (=)"Seven-of-Swords": CS: Do you just jump to conclusions out here like a rookie cop?
[12.04.2024 20:09:36] BDM|Hauptcharakter: Regruop at Weimar, Sturm.
[12.04.2024 20:09:43] BDM|'Sturmschatten': Ja.
[12.04.2024 20:10:09] BDM|Hauptcharakter: The ugly one can be hit. Not easily.
