Good evening there, Ensign Raven reporting. Today has been a quite eventful day, I must admit. I've done several patrols and completed them successfully and without any damage on my ship. I want to cut short with the rather insignificant things that happened, such as several Smugglers that have been dealt with, and small pirate groups that have been destroyed.

Though, of course there are significant things that have happened today, two of them I want to elaborate.

Target 1: Joker's_Thug-Mimmey

This one was a rather tough nut to crack. Me and Mason Ralusch from the Task Force Seven were about to accomplish a rather quiet patrol through Texas, until we've encountered this big boy. One of the probably most infamous terrorists Liberty ever had, The Joker's, thugs. That one was heavily armoured, aswell as armed and rather aggressive, too. Since there was no reinforcements available at this time, me and Mister Ralusch had to fight the gunboat on our own. It was a rather tough fight, the pilot of this gunboat was well trained and most dangerous. It was close, but we've managed to take it down on our own. I wouldn't have made it without Mister Ralusch though.

Target 2: RNC-Viraat

Another tough one, I must admit. After the gunboat was beaten, me and Mister Ralusch headed back to Planet Houston to refuel and repair. Just a short time later we got an emergency call about a Rheinland Battleship in Texas, just next to Houston. I was rushing back to West Point Academy, since I had my Upholder landed there to pick it up. As I arrived back in Texas we've gathered two bombers, including me, a secondary fleet Battlecruiser, and a Mercenary as friendly forces. The battle took a while, but we've eventually managed to destroy the enemy battleship.

After a successful day like that I'll now go for a rest, this would be all ladies and gentlemen, good evening.

Matt looks down at the screen, a lot more confident now than his previous report.

Sirs,

[color=##33CCFF]Short report, not much has been happening on the Missouri while I tidy up some of the rookies here. We will be heading out for a patrol to finish off a few hacker wings in a few hours. This morning however, was pretty easy. I went on patrol to find an Outcast Sabre staring at the Tradelane. He seemed to make out that he had blasted a good few other pilots before I came onto the scene. From his bots/bats loadout, he seemed partially correct. I noticed he had a large number of friendly pilots in his hold and enacted a swift rescue. The man had no idea the damage my Iron Hammers and Mine's could cause and was swiftly executed. I used 6 bot's during the fight, bot's which were quickly replenished from his obliterated fighter. Now, I have a strike force to lead.

Matt looks a little annoyed and worn out.

Sirs,

An interesting report this one. One which I hope is used in order to safeguard our borders a little more. Please do forward a copy of this to the Junker Congress for them to action.

I responded to a system wide broadcast from Research-Drone|Chemical which simply stated it's hostile intent. I rallied what troops we had and Ensign Turner located the AI Core Cruiser hovering close to Rochester. Seeing this blatant threat to our security and responding to the KOS orders, I ordered Assault1, Lt Villers, Ensign Turner and Recruit Halkins to attack. The cruiser intitally moved away from Rochester, however after being ripped apart by our wing - it's artificial "intelligence" saw the Junker base as a safe hevan and docked. I enclose guncams to be used as evidence.

Hale here.

Good news today ladies and gentlemen. A small patrol (mainly primary fleet) of Liberty Navy fighter craft were on a routine forward combat patrol of the Hudson system. The patrol was initiated at 2000 hours SMT. Initial navy forces consisted of the following.

[font=agency fb] - Patrol force:
[color=#FFFFFF]

• David Hale (Guardian)
  
• Tom Preager (Guardian]
  
• Angelina Dimitrova (Guardian)
  
• Michelle LeBlanc (Guardian)
  
• Simon Sartori (Guardian)
  
• Catherine Raven (Guardian)
  
• Jack Turner (Guardian)
  
• Mason Ralusch (TF7 Guardian)
  

[color=#99FF99]- Reserve forces

• LNS-Assault1 (Liberty Gunboat)
  
• LNS-Poisoned.Dagger (Seige Cruiser)
  

The patrol force came into contact with a group of Rheinland primary fleet fighters, with the cruiser RNC Seydlitz acting as a mobile field headquarters. Our fighters opened fire on the Rheinland force. It was a long and hard fought engagement, with all of us coming under fire at some point during the fight, resulting in considerable damage.

Some time into the engagement (approx 2100 hours SMT) a Rheinland Battleship designated RNS-Viraat entered the field, forcing me to call our reserve forces. I expected I would have to commit to a fighting retreat to Texas, however our reserve forces lured the battleship away from our fighter force.

The LNS Assault1 and LNS Poisoned Dagger managed to down the larger craft between the two of them, displaying excellent tactical thinking and proving the worth of the two vessel's crew and commanders. I want to personally thank both John Xiger and the captain of the Poisoned Dagger for their excellent work under fire, at risk to their own personal safety.

The fighter group was equally sucessful, forcing the Military group to retreat with multiple casualties. Only one ship was lost from the fighter group.

The RNC Seydlitz escaped our forces, as did a number of their fighter craft. The RNC Viraat however was severely damaged in the engagement and will take a significant amount of time to get space-worthy again.

All in all, I want to congratulate every last member of the force operating today in Hudson. Excellent work ladies and gentlemen. Particularly Ensigns Catherine Raven and Michelle LeBlanc for their excellent display of evasive flying.

Hale out.

Matt looks pretty good, he's busy pouring himself a large scotch.

Sirs,

First off, I've upgraded my formatting so that hopefully these messages are easier to read. Secondly, I have more good news, the Order have been dealt a very serious blow. It was beautiful. At the start of the fight, only my bro' John and Joshua Ashfield were able to attend the scene with the LNS Warhammer. It performed excellently against the enemy battleship Order|CV-Immortal, taking her out the game completely. We gradually got some reinforcements meaning we could stand toe-to-toe with the Order forces. Their Commanding Admiral was shot down by the Warhammer and it retreated back, firing only it's defensive batteries when engaged. Catherine Raven managed to bag the bomber when their men sounded a retreat. While our main force persued their target - I noticed I had a target sticking to me religiously. Pulling out the main force, I engaged the fighter in a duel. I took the shields out, and hit with a perfect MR shot along with supporting fire from the Iron Hammers. Didn't see a pod, think he might be frozen a bit in the wastes of Alaska.

The best part of this engagement is all our pilots made it home intact. Minimal damage was sustained. The Warhammer took moderate damage, but nothing that can't be repaired by the end of the day.

Excellent work everyone.

Subject: Rescue operation.


I m sending this raport from rescue operation, 1 of TF7 pilots name TF7|LLS-Blackbird was hidding in New Berlin from rheinland forces.

To get him out we formed rescue team.

LNS-Assault1 ( Gunboat, officer name - John XIger)
TF7|SK.A-Gate ( fighter - Guardian )

Reserve ship
LNS-Warhammer ( Dread, officer name - Walter-Dering )

Our plan was simple, Dread was stationing in Texas waiting for instruction.
My gunboat LNS-Assault1 mission was to do diversion and lure enemy forces to fight, so that TF7|SK.A-Gate could find TF7|LLS-Blackbird.

On our way we found friendly freelancer/mercenary MM~Haries.Edvin ( Fighter - Sabre ), we could not tell him the about our operation, but he was the key to our succed in the end.


When I moved closer to planet Hamburg, I was found out by 1 RM fighter pilot, before I knew it, 1 RNC battleships, 2 more fighters and 1 bomber showed up.

I ordered TF7|SK.A-Gate to find and get out TF7|LLS-Blackbird and LNS-Warhammer to move here and support again enemy BS.

The fight begun and MM~Haries.Edvin moved to assist me.
It was hard fight, 3 fighters attacked MM-Walter-Dering and bomber attacked me, and enemy BS was just shoting missiles.

LNS-Warhammer was almost there to assist again enemy Battleship but than we noticed another enemy battleship on planet hamburg and LNS-Warhammer moved back.

Situation become more tense when enemy gunboat showed up and 1 more fighter showed up.
RNC-Stralsund

Fighting 1 fighter, 1 bomber and gunboat was a bit hard, but gunboat Officer was poor experienced.
I managed to shot down enemy gunboat and together with MM~Haries.Edvin we shot down one of enemy fighters or bombers.

After this enemy Battleship attacked my Gunboat.

TF7|SK.A-Gate and TF7|LLS-Blackbird managed to get to Texas, and they get into fight again HF pilots and HF battleship, so I could not hope for reinforcement.

After some time, I and MM~Haries.Edvin managed to escape to bering jump hole and get back to texas.
When I got there, fight with HF was already over.

Losses:
No Losses
Low damage on fighter and gunboat.

Win:
1 Rheinalnd gunboat ( RNC-Stralsund ).
1 Rheinland Fighter/bomber,
TF7|LLS-Blackbird Rescued,
HF capital ship shot down,
HF pilots forced to escape,

Today operation was very succesfull.

Raport over, XIger Out.

:::Incomming transmission - comlink establishes - location: onboard LNS Warhammer in Zone 21:::

I would like to report a rising activity of Order ships in Zone 21 - LNS Warhammer will be patroling Alaska in case of intruders. I am requesting some possible back up of lighter vessels in case of bomber atack. So far Order ships are falling back to Minor when asked or are staying hidden somewhere in the Nebula I will keep my scanners online and I will locate every one of them.

Matt smirks as he opens his laptop, he opens a bottle of beer and grins as he drinks it.

Sirs,

A pleasent patrol this evening. Started off with a Rogue fighter with some Outcast weaponry taking some pot shots at passing traders. I had literally just launched from the Missouri when I was confronted with him. LN-McQueen was already engaging the fighter, so I rendered assistance and blew it sky high. Some Hell-Puppies decided that they wanted to launch a tirade of abuse against Liberty. Of course, I retorted that their baseless accusations of corruption and withholding imformation from the public were completeltly without grounds. While I was busy laughing at their feeble excuses for being failed Navy officers, a trader was screaming for help near West Point. Setting off with Recruit Mark Dering, we engaged the pirates taking on the Ageria transports. The first kill was relatively straightforward. It seemed Smeagle was flying too straight and a quick MR and burst of my Hammers later - He dropped. The HF who were insulting us arrived on the scene and engaged the remaining pirates to which I called off our attack. No use overpowering the pirates when HF are around to get themselves blownup. I set a course to assist an LPI officer in Texas.

We were greated by three pirates. All of the freelancer sort. One Roc and two Sabres. The LPI officer was no longer on the scene at this point, however there was a secondary fleet bomber in attendance. They seemed to be arguing over who should pay who. I even had 1m credits transferred to me as some sort of bribe. These shall be forwarded to the Armoury. I do not take bribes and this immediately set about the next course of fighting. The Roc was targetted, however we lost our secondary fleet bomber. Fighting 4v2, Mark Dering showed immense courage and survivability after becoming the target. The LPI officer returned to the scene followed by Ensign Jack Turner and engaged the Roc bomber. I landed several MR hits to its hull, but annoyingly the targetting computer did not read my last hit as a kill shot. Instead favouring that the Roc was killed by something hostile. In a heavy Bretonian accent. Aye! ME! *coughs*. No matter, we engaged the other two sabres. One was downed after a sustained burst of my hammer fire, the other ran off after Mark ran out of CDs.

All in all, another fine evening's shift work. Moderate damage was taken to Mark's fighter, all other Primary officers survived. Our only loss was the secondary fleet pilot who is now recouperating on Houston.

Excellent work people.
