Good day, today I led a small force consisting of the Sentinel (Crecy), Ensign Ferb Flynn and an Armed Forces AT named "Hurricane". We set off to Leeds with intentions of rescuing some refugees. When we arrived in the hostile system a Council Battleship was hidden in the gas clouds. We had a brief conversation before I ordered Ferb Flynn to scout out the planet for hostiles. He returned safely and stated that the planet was all clear. We moved out of the gas cloud and met a freelancer. His name is irrelevant; he said he wanted to see the frogs lose against us. I told him to leave for his own safety. We carried onto the hidden satellite that housed the refugees ready for departure. Ferb Flynn was only able to get one cargo hold before the frogs began to realise what we were doing. I gave the order to "Bug out". We managed to get to the Jump Hole before the frogs found us. Of course we taunted the frogs... Its only necessary. Everyone made it safely back to Southampton alive. Including the 52 refugees we rescued.

This mission didn't go to plan however I'm pleased to say that the refugees are enjoying life on Planet New London!

Subject: Unfamiliar foreign vessels in Omega 3 system.

Greetings Sir/Madam,
This is my first report after being sworn in as the captain of HMS-Kite, so my sincere apologies for any errors that you may encounter along your reading. Now coming to the topic.

It was bright , quiet and no sign of any hostile activity in Cambridge. So I along with my crew decided to move to Omega 3 system for a brief patrol as the ship's long range scanner was able to spot some unknown ships. Upon entering the system, the area around the Jump gate showed no signs of any activity. So we decided to take the tradelane and move to Freeport 1. When we started to advance towards the Freeport, our scanners picked up unknown unknown neutral ships 24K away. When we got to the Freeport 1, we saw a huge gathering of Zoner Capital ships. There were three Zoner Nephilm dreadnoughts each with Armour upgrade and hyperspace equipment. In the meantime I was joined by BRF|HMS-Sentinel and BRF|HMS-Matilda at Freeport 1. Upon being asked about the licence for using hyperspace equipment in Omega 3 space, Mr. Fisher denied that such a licence was required and that BPA or BAF had no business here. I made a quick search over the database and and found that none of the ships were registered to use jump equipment in Omega 3 space.And when questioned further, one of them went on to dock with the Freeport.

A few days ago corsair Osiris was found taking advantage of the NFZ near Freeport 1 and now the three zoner capital vessels with suspicious activity. Chances are that they could be hijacked zoner vessels supplying corsair ships with ammunition. We are yet to be clarified about their intentions with such heavily armed ships and rare equipment.

Also running a second search on the database I found that Rabbit has requested for a licence but the registration office is yet to grant a licence, but the other two Dreadnoughts show no signs of formality. I also ask for permission to issue orders to engage the foreign vessels if found anywhere outside Freeport vicinity. Also I am attaching some scan reports that support my above described report.

Subject: Leeds patrol and repair expenses report.

Greetings Sir/Madam,
Due to ongoing conflict regarding NFZ with zoners in Omega 3 system, it has been decided that Kite will not be patrolling the Freeport route for the next 48 hours and instead has been positioned near the Leeds jump hole in New London system.After scanning some Junker ships incoming from Leeds system, it was decided that the vessel was to be taken for a quick patrol to Rayburn station in Leeds. After docking with Rayburn, the ship was refueled with mox and other necessary commodities. While the Kite was docked at the station, the long range scanners of Rayburn picked up some frequencies which are known to be used by Gallic transponders.Sensing there was a threat not far away, we decided to make a patrol deep inside enemy territory. The crew prepared the ship well keeping in mind there could be a fight ahead and everyone was mentally prepared to face any kind of situation. Without wasting another moment we left Rayburn and cruised deep into the Leeds system.

As we moved out of the West Leeds smog cloud, the view became much clear and we kept proceeding towards the planet. Especially with Battleship Oubli on guard, it was impossible to move further towards the planet. In the same time the Rayburn was with constantly in touch with us, help us track the source of the unknown frequency. It was supposed to be coming from somewhere between planet Leeds and Stokes mining station. The time had come to make the ship invisible. the cloak generator were engaged and the ship started slowly melting with the background. While cloaked, we moved closer to Oubli and took a close inspection at the Leeds satellite. After this we took the tradelane to Stokes mining station, and that was the time when we came in contact with a Valor class battleship( call-sign RNS-Freedom). We broke away from the lane and slowly advanced towards the Valor with impulse speed. The ship was running low on cloak fuel so I decided to deactivate cloak while still 8K away from the Valor. I warned the Captain of the RNS-Freedom that he was the war enemy of Bretonia and has been acting as a constant threat to Rayburn and that he still has time to surrender and save the lives of his crew. Not surprisingly he refused to do so, but I must admit that captain Henry of RNS-Freedom was young, brave and intelligent and one of those few who was prepared to face the death for his motherland. It didn't take too long for our gunners to engage each other and the consequences were fatal for RNS-Freedom. Our effective warheads breached its hull in no time. Our crew congratulated each other on the Victory. We took in several life pods and started moving back to Rayburn for repairs.

While on our way back to New London system our scanners picked up another hostile bomber ( call-sign Punisher|SL.Touraine.). The bomber piloted by Guillaume was loud, harsh and called Bretonia as a nation of cowards. Him coming to know that Kite was a 'Dunkirk' class battleship, immediately docked with Battleship Oubli and then sent another Valor class battleship( call-sign Punisher|SL.Poseidon). It was time for a second fight, and the ship was already damaged from the cannons of RNS-Freedom. The Valor opened fire on us after issuing a brief warning. Our gunners were ready for counter attack and so another fight took place. I ordered to steer our ship into the smog clouds which drastically reduced the visibility for the Valor. Not only Kite was small and agile , but also hard to be seen within the clouds. Our ship successfully dodged most of the heavy cerbs and at the same time was able to inflict maximum damage to the enemy battleship. Punisher|SL.Poseidon was turned into ashes in a matter of minutes.

We were heavily damaged, lost one thruster, two heavy guns and above all lost two brave gunmen. We pray for their souls to rest in peace. Some of our crew that suffered minor injuries are being treated at Southampton medical bays. It was a memorable day for the entire crew of Kite. The repair work is being carried out at Southampton Shipyard and the total expenses are estimated to be around 12.5 million Sirian Credits. Furthermore, all the expenses are being met from the ship's account, but unfortunately we are falling short by an amount of 1.83 million credits. In the recent days the government has been very supportive in terms of funding and we hope it continues this way. We are requesting the Admiralty Board for 1.85 million credits to be transferred to the ship account for the successful completion of the pending repair work so that services can be resumed ASAP and Kite can continue to serve the crown. Thank you for your time.

Here are the camera stills I am attaching below which further justify the above described incident.

Good evening gents.
We carried out a small patrol in New London today, and I'm glad to report no enemies of Bretonia were sighted.
However, that is not all I have to report...
I was testing out different Curacao teas, when I discovered that pyramid shaped tea bags are indeed better than standard ones. This information may be useful for our tea convoys and storage teams, as they could ensure that the better bags are bought, to help the war effort.
On a more sad note, Dr O'Farrel down in the medical bay was murdered today by a deranged psychopath we'd found injured aboard some wreckage. The bugger died moments after, when the medical bay collapsed on him. We should probably look into getting that fixed. But for now, the crew and I sit down for a cup of tea, with pyramid shaped bags of course.
That's all.
