Good evening Admirals.
I began my patrol from battleship Essex. When i got out my scanners picked up strange signals, so i went there to get a better look at what it was.
There i discovered this as shown by the guncam:
#Guncam1
The blue ships didnt feel like the were built by humans, there's something really wrong with those.
And i dont even think they are human to begin with, their speech is heard inside your brain and it feels like youre having an headache. Frankly i was unsure what to do in this situation, but i decided that they are an threat just like anything else that might threaten Bretonia and engaged them.
The Corsair cruiser that were fighting them already got destroyed. Leaving the "things" to focus on another target.
I got close enough to the "things" big ship, i think you could call it a capital ship and took a guncam shot of it, as shown in the guncam:
#Guncam2
As you can see there's nothing human with this ship or creature. It somewhat pulses and it's weaponry is too advanced to be of Kusari or any other house origin. Wich is quite troubling.
There were two lighter crafts of them "things" wich started to fire on me and i must say that their technology is superior, but i managed to lose their interest in me and they aimed for one of the freelancers that were
present.
#Guncam3
An Bounty Hunter also showed up and started to fight against the blue things, unfortunatly he was shot down
by them after a long time of fighting.
#Guncam4
The battle raged for quite awhile, even innocent traders that just came trough the jump gate to Dublin were destroyed. They eventually were pushed out. But to me it seemed more that they were just done with what they came for. About when the enemy forces had disappeared, Lt.Layla Clay joined up with me. I briefed her lightly about what had happend. There were also an kind of odd individual that seemed hell bent on fighting us, his call sign is: Halo
But as i were to engage him another showed up and sneak attacked my target. I stood down and let them handle it. Turned out they were both pirates, dont know the exact reason for this engagement.
The one with the callsign Halo was eventually the winner, but had taken heavy damage and fled the field.
Then Ens.H.Walton joined us aswell. And Lt.Layla ordered an patrol to be done.
We started with Leeds system that were clear. We monitored the traffic for awhile aswell.
Lt.Layla then ordered me to check Manchester and Ens.Walton to Cambridge.
Both systems were found clear and as we returned to New London system, we got told that an KNF had taken 50 bretonians as hostages and demanded 2 million as ransom for their freedom.
As the Lieutenant had no other choice but to buy them out, since it would be to dangerous to open fire on the Kusarians ship. I then docked on planet New London to have my ship repaired and write this report.

[font=Garamond]Good morning admirality,
Reporting from my late shift last night.
I undocked from battleship Essex where I found Ensign Crowely in a harsh crosstalk with a certain individual called Halo`. As Crowely already reported Halo` was suddenly involved in a fight with another unknown ship upon our intention to engage him. Badly damaged he vanished shortly after he had shot his opponent. Upon the appearance of Ensign Walton, I decided to start a patrol into New London and Leeds. With both systems being seemingly clear, I ordered Corwely to patrol Manchester and Walton to look after Manchester. I soon received a message on a private channel from an unknown hostile Kusari ship. Apparently, he held about 50 Bretonian citizens to ransom in his cargo hold. It was pretty clear, the ricemuncher demanded 2 millions for the release of the prisoners. Knowingly that this might be a nasty trap, I headed alone to the arranged loaction in Leeds for the reputed handover. In the event, it was neither a bluff, nor a trap. A Kusari Gunboat , holding several Police Pilots and Armed Forces officers, as well as a few civilians, was waiting there all alone. I deemed it to be the right thing to pay the sum in order to release the captives. All of them being in more or less good healthy condition have been sent to the medical station on battleship Derby afterwards.
Shortly after that incident, we received a call from the newly commissioned Prison Liner Glasshouse for a meeting in the orbit of Planet New London. Together with Ensign Walton, I escorted the Glasshouse on its way to Dundee with a payload of Light Arms for the Border Station, followed by an prisoner transport from the Stirling to Newgate in Manchester. After this swift and luckily flawless continued flight me and the Glasshouse signed off at Planet New London.
In service to the Queen and the Homeland,

Greetings to the Amiralty,
I have returned to active duty, since and injury kept me from returning to the Armed Forces, it feels good to be back.
My Report actually begins, from the moment I launched from Sailsbury. I detected a vessel, bearing the esignation Aethen and a Liberty Navy IFF. When challanged the Vessel immediatly departed claiming it had made a wrong turn. This vessel could warrant watching in the future.
I then, patrolled through various systems before arriving back in New London, where I discovered are rather vocal Gian Gunship bearing the name Talon's.Embrace. It had been pirating the trade lane to the Manchester Jump Gate. I enganged it, but in a Templar the fight was unlikly to go my way, a civilian bomber apeared, Anthony.Wilson and assiseted me, I was then also joined be Ensign Crowley, and we sucessfully defeated the Gunship together.
I then returned to Sailsbury with Ensign Crowley.
I hope that this report is satisfactory
Your Obident servant,
Ensign Kian Williams

Subject: Report for today
After setting off from the Norfolk, I headed to New London via Cardiff, finding nothing to report. However, between the other side of the Jump Gate and Kensington, the tradelane was disrupted by three Corsair light fighters. I engaged them and captured all their pilots, taking them to New London for dropoff. I am now onboard the Suffolk.
Lt. Barett, signing off.
