Guten Abend,
Today was quite bothersome. The day started off easily, with Fähnrich von Reims and me starting a patrol in the New Berlin, Stuttgart, Koeln and recently visited Saar system. We saw nothing interesting, except the usual shady bunch of unioners and angry farmers trying to get to Heisenberg. We should send more bounty hunters into that direction.
While in Saar, the Fähnrich and me assaulted one of their stations and attacked the biodomes. While we didn't do much damage to the station itself, 6 fighters and 2 freighters have fallen. They apparently use a modified Eagle as their new very heavy fighter.

After we returned to New Berlin, Fähnrich von Reims caught - thanks to his attention - a freelancer that attempted to smuggle Side Arms without a license. After repeated hailing, he did not respond and proceeded to dock. He attempted to use the lanes that von Reims disrupted and continued to cruise, when I caught the smuggler after 20-30k distance. After a lot of excuses from the trader that required about ten minutes of talking, the trader hopefully saw his fault and complied to pay the fine aswell as dropping the cargo.

Right before that happened, organic alien entities appeared right infront of us and we were forced to take distance. I don't know what exactly happened, it was strange. I think they wanted us to kill the trader, to be more strict and less patient, maybe.

After we let the trader go, they seemed disappointed and vanished. Right before they vanished, my instruments read strange energy signatures that built up around them. After that, a strange glow veiled them, and they were gone. I have some guncam shots of it attached.

Fähnrich von Reims and me decided to return to New Berlin, where he told me that he saw two red hessian cruisers near Bonn. I quickly got into my bomber and headed there, only to see that the Fähnrich was already firing against the two cruisers, with heavy fire support from Battleship Strausberg. Our secondary fleet cruiser RNC-Herschel supported us too and we assisted in taking them out. Halfway through the engagement, the two aliens appeared again, same energy signatures as before, and opened fire on one of the cruisers, which systems quickly broke apart. No survivors seemed to remain. The nomads appeared to talk about corrections that had to be made and then shot the hessians.
Maybe they're on our side now? Unlikely, but who knows?



Hochachtungsvoll,

We were carefully patrolling the Omegas with Fähnrich Hebel and Hauptmann Schmidt when we stumbled upon a variety of communist insects flying around Omega-7, near Freistadt. Given the fact that I was in Omega-3 at the point of the encounter, I only arrived when the battle just began.

Our opposition consisted solely of smaller SCRA fliers: One gunboat and several fighters as escort.

At first we were in a tight situation, but thanks to the timely intervention of the RNC StahlAugen, we took out the gunboat.

A brief fighter fight ensued and as more Rheinwehr fighters arrived, we routed the SCRA patrol. We managed to take out one of their fighters and a reservist escort, but also lost the ship of Leutnant Winter and Fähnrich Hebel in the fray.

Shortly afterwards, I also ran into an Artefact smuggler, flying a Rheinland Behemoth. I attempted making an interception and caught up with him in Stuttgart, but after spouting some sort of gibbon language at me, he docked Freiburg base.

That's about it.

Guten Abend,
During the day the Kusari Naval Forces arrived safely within Rheinland. The police and myself greeted the fighter wing and the transort with the crew at Fulda. The convoy was escorted to the Ring, where the crew entered and accomodated itself with the Kusari battleship. I mobilized the Adlerauge and the Forseti to secure the orbit, aswell as two tertiary battleship patrols.
The pirates did not dare to attack for the full duration of the KNFs stay. After several hours, the crew was ready and we departed into the direction of Kusari.
The battleship arrived safely, no pirate incident on the way. It arrived safely on the shipyard.

When the Military forces returned to Rheinland, we still had a KNF pilot there, with which Flieger Holst and myself talked to a little.
The Flieger discovered a red hessian gunboat disrupting the lane between the border station and Bonn in New Berlin shortly, to which we both responded quite quickly. A secondary fleet pilot join in aswell but didn't pay enough attention during that point.. the pod was secured, and Daumann has already provided a replacement fighter.
The hessian gunboat was destroyed quickly after by the Flieger and me, and didn't offer too much resistance.

As usual, some guncam shots are provided in the attachments.


Hochachtungsvoll,
Hauptmann Michael Schmidt

Guten Abend,
My duty today started with a patrol in the New Berlin system. I have gathered new hints that the hessians might be in bed with the IMG. The hessians seem to be too friendly to the IMG. All said by a Red Hessian Army murderer himself. I bet the IMG would deny it if we would ask it about said statement. And nobody would believe a hessian either. I am interested in how this turns out.

Later on, two Liberty battlecruisers went up to our frontdoor in Hamburg. They wanted to independently want us to to help against Gallia, siding with the Libertonians effectively. Their desperation was answered with their immediate destruction.

I then joined a checkpoint in the Frankfurt system, at the jumpgate to New Berlin system. It started off quite relaxing and peaceful, with barely any traders passing by. At a later point though, we have encountered a lot of blockade runners and smugglers that were successfully dealt with by the RFP and us. At that point I was in command of the "Adlerauge" gunboat. At a later point I assumed control of the Forseti carrier, when bloodthirsty hessians showed up including Rorry and his friends.
It looks like Rorry and the hessians are now buddies, they fought and cooperated together. At first we hopefully annoyed them by not giving them the blood they wanted, afterwards we charged into their forces with me in command. The hessian support forces fell fast, with the only present Red Hessian Army 'soldier' eating a mortar of the cruiser RNC-Neckar. It was a glorious explosion.
Many more terrorists and murderers fell to our hands. Rorrys friends and himself, everyone in a gunboat, got away in the end. Their manveurability is not to be underestimated at all. I could not collect guncam shots of every single kill.

After the engagement was over, units returned to normal duty, and the Forseti docked at the Oder shipyard.
At a very much later point, a VWA Aktivist was present in the Frankfurt system. The Flieger Enfield had an argument with the Bundschuh, although I could not name who has "won".
Finally, two red hessian cruisers camped in the lane between Bonn and Stuttgart. Those were quickly eliminated, although several navigational issues costed us three bombers. The escape pods were recovered.

Finally, I docked on Strausberg and took a shuttle back to Moselle.

Our forces fought an outstanding fight today.


Hochachtungsvoll,
