This ship was build on Valetta shipyard in the middle of the 816 A.S on the Carrera's familia money. For his short history he took part in a few battles in Omicron Alpha and Eta. But, after raid in Tau 37 he took a hard damage from a Colonials ships with a HS support. That's why we send him on Corsica. The ship was repaired and got a little upgrate for his armor.

Location: Malta Naval Ship Dies Irae, the flagship of the 101st.

Greetings. It was a quite day, I was on Malta and had a lot of paper works when an Ensign from a Malta's radar station. He told me about 3 unknown ships somewhere in Siniestre and he told that one of these ships is a cap ship class. I had not so many time to think carful about it. Maybe they are Sairs, maybe GMG, maybe someone else. Than I said to captain of the Dies Irae to be ready to launch his ship in space. We got a waypoint from a Malta's radar station and came to it. The first waypoint was clear, maybe unknown guests left it or maybe it wasn't correct. We took the next waypiont..... and it was correct. Scanners on Dies showed 3 Hostile targets. I came more close and they were an Order ships. One of them was a Carrier. I asked them about their business in Alpha, but they didn't answer to me. Just said something like "We are here to reseach". Also I told them to leva e Alpha and said that they can't use Omicron 90, if they wanna back home, but they didn't listen to them and jump to Omicron 90..... I can't follow them in it, than I return to Malta. Asking your Orders about them in the future senor Herandez and senora Fierro.
There is a screen with them from a Dies Irae cameras:

Also when I was on my Sabre with a Lieutenant Arturo Salieri a foolish Sair entered Alpha. But he caught him fast and lt Salieri finish him without any probelms.

And one day ago, when I was in escort of one of the transport with cardie HS guy tried to stop us and to destroy transport with cardie, but I took care about him and transport continue his road.

Subject: Corsairs attack.

Hola friends. Just had no time, but now, wanna give report about Malta's defence. The last days week was really hard. I don't remember day, when there was no fight in Alpha. Sairs attacked us every day. But, we won all the battles and 'sairs lost a lot of pilots and ships. The first of them - OPG attack. When I started from Malta 5 OPG's were on my scanners. There were just me and Luca Mariotti. But as soon as possible, captain Alonso on his gunship [RA]Shadow came for help. Together we took out all Corsairs and without any losses from our side.

Okay, now next. There was a message from the Palermo about Corsairs fleet in system. Soon they entered Alpha. Our forces regroup at Malta. Corsairs started fight. They dread was destroyed as soon as possible. Captains of the dread MNS Moonlight and of the Battleship MNS Nova took care of him. The enemies bombers tried to destroy our cap ships, but they didn't do anything serious. Our fighters/bombers and gunboats finished all Sairs fighters. It was a victory. But one Corsair left..... he asked about fight one on one. Just me and him. I was confused. Just got my Sabre and came to meet with this sair scum. There was a hard fight with a lot of critical moments, but I won. The enemies was destroyed. Now it was a full victory.

....connection restored....

And the last one. There was a Corsairs cap fleet in Alpha. Something about 1 dread, 1 Osiris, 2 Carriers and 2 Cruisers. It was.... it was bloody hell. Corsairs capitals were everywhere. Few of our capitals took too many damage and left the fight. But our bombers did a great work. Corsairs dread was the first target.... he was destroyed fast, because he also had a damage from our Battleships. The next targets were two Corsairs cruisers..... now you maybe can find something from them near Hispania. After that, an Order carriers were killed by snac's. And the last Corsair on Osiris ran from our guns, and back Gamma. Also there were few of Corsairs fighters/bombers in escorts. But our fighters took care of them. Noone left from the escort.

Languedoc System

Location : Classified

Honoured Clients, I am pleased to submit my first report from Gallia:

I embarked on my mission from Kirkwall Base in Orkney, and entered Gallia at the Jumphole to Languedoc, which is located at coordinates D/E 2/3 in a dense minefield:

[Image: 1EnteringLanguedocde23.jpg]

I then jumped to Languedoc. Immediately after jumping I saw Montpellier Guard Station, a Council base. It is visible in the following shot, in the foreground.

[Image: 2LanguedocMontpellierinforground.jpg]

[Image: 2LanguedocMontpellierinforground.jpg]

I approached Montpellier, and the base became alerted to my presence. The Council is aware of our relationship to you, and consequently they assumed I was on an espionage mission, and they opened fire.

[Image: 3montpellierhostile.jpg]

I approached Nimes Station for a scan; it was also hostile.

[Image: 4NimesHostile.jpg]

I located two capital class wrecks, remnants of conflict between the Council and the Gallic Royal Navy. I was able to hack information about them from nearby databases:

[Image: 5CassardGRNwreck.jpg]

Damaged by these encounters, I sought refuge on a Junker base, Lodeve Space Port, located hidden behind a planet which I will not identify in case this signal is hacked.

[Image: 7JunkersbasebehindPlanet.jpg]

The following is my navigational map thus far of Languedoc; I focused on those areas serviced by trade lanes. The jumpgate to the Dauphine system was found, as was a jumphole. I will use the jumphole on excursions into Dauphine at a later date.

<< Bounced signal >>
[Signal Strength low. Boosting gain]

This is Lieutenant Santario Bonzo. I was on routine patrol in the Omicron 85 system when I encountered what seemed to be a modified Osiris battleship. It seemed similar to the Recon Cruiser, but with heavier armor, armament, and.. Well, it cloaked. Those folks at the Order have gotten cloaking tech working again. Before I could report, it opened fire on my ship with what seemed to be a kinetic blast. The result is that I am now several hundred thousand kilometers from the nearest station. I am running on emergency power; my on board power and rations will only last a week. Concequently, it will take approximately a week for a recovery ship to arrive. So I send out a general SOS to any 101st recovery craft in the area. I hope this signal made it. I had to aim it at a metallic asteroid to get it to bounce toward allied space. I'm draining too much power already. This message terminates.

(( I'm gone for a week and figured I might as well get a personal plot line going. ))

RE: Request relay

ENCRYPTION: MAXIMUM

Hola Admirals. Today while on patrol, I had a discussion with the Mandalore, leader of the Mandalorian Mercenaries. Apparently, they are having problems getting supplies and craft from the Bounty Hunters Guild. Seems the BHG dont like outsiders showing them up. *Chuckles* Anyhow, the Mandalore asked me to relay a request that his organization be allowed to use our Tridentes and related equipment. If I may humbly submit an opinion, I think anything that ties these elite pilots closer to us is a good thing. Besides, it seems as if half of Sirius uses our Tridentes these days...

Also Sirs, I have once again heard from our mutual friend who assures me that they are still proceeding with their intelligence gathering. I suspect we will hear from them quite soon.

For Malta

[Signal from Bastia]

Friends, I found my way into friendly hands far quicker than I expected. The recovery ship found an in-system jump hole that allowed them to recover me quickly and efficiently. I am waiting for my fighter to be repaired, and the OK from medical. Then I'm going to be flying again.

Santario out.

101st Ghosts of Razgriz Communication Channel - Shazbot11 - 08-23-2009

[TRANSMISSION INBOUND]

ID: Devon Xaero
ORIGIN: Malta, 101st Barracks
DESTINATION: 101st Command
ENCRYPTION: Class-S

<Beginning Playback>

This is Devon Xaero reporting in to the 101st Command. What follows is a report concerning an unidentified signal source and message concerning the 101st and/or the Nation of Malta. I will report my findings to the best of my abilities.

My sortie began with reports of Order personnel entering into the Taus, namely 23 and eventually 37. Their proximity to Alpha warranted a mobilization of our armed forces to run interdiction on the intruders. After a stand-off with three of them at Freeport 10, an abrupt ion storm passed through the system; when our sensors and flight systems rebooted after the storm's passing, we found that the Order pilots used the opportunity to escape back into Tau-23. We gave pursuit through 23 before they escaped beyond our reach, and a general RTB (Return-To-Base) command was issued for all pilots.

This next segment contains the heart of this transmission. After our return to Alpha, Senor Salieri joined me on patrol; Malta Naval Dispatch had us perform a few sweeps through Alpha, typical search-and-destroy for Bounty Hunter intrusions. During one of these patrols, though, I received a very unusual comm transmission. What follows are transcripts recorded by my Saber's black box:

I could not entirely understand the initial purpose of the transmission. In an attempt to find answers, I traced the signal's source back through the relays to make contact. Luckily, my trace worked and the transmission made it back to the source. The reply I received is as follows:

By now I had managed to identify the signal source's ID stamps that piggy-backed each transmission, a '167th'. I can only imagine it to be identification of a squadron of some sort. This person also made a reference to a man named "Al'Kazadh", claiming that he was a traitor to the Outcasts. Upon pressing him for further details, he uploaded a comm excerpt from Al'Kazadh:

The situation had become more complex as the excerpt conveys a potential attack against either the Spirits and/or the Phantoms. This person stated that he/she had more details about this alleged traitor, but would only surrender the information if we found him/her. I considered these details to be a sensitive matter, and kept whatever information I had confined between myself and Senor Sallieri; I questioned the other pilots active around Malta if they had ever come across this '167th' or Al'Kazadh. A Shadow Outcast made mention that he had seen the 167th before, though he did not remember many details about that. As for Al'Kazadh, no one had ever heard about him.

Though I was skeptical about the information I could not risk being wrong, as well as passing up the chance to get more details. Triangulating the previous transmissions from the 167th through the comm relays, I managed to locate the source in Manchester. I plotted a course through Tau-37, -23, -31, and Newcastle and departed shortly thereafter. Senor Sallieri joined me for this flight, and we initiated a silent run through the charted systems; care was taken to avoid densely-traveled flight paths and House transit lanes to reduce the risk of drawing attention to ourselves. I also enacted defensive rules of engagement should we encounter any hostiles; we were looking only for data, not a fight.

As we arrived in Newcastle, I received yet another transmission from the 167th. Somehow, he had been tracking our progress in our pursuit and issued the following warning:

At this point, Senor Sallieri and I agreed that attempting to pursue this person further would be an unacceptable risk to ourselves and the 101st. We immediately plotted a return course back to Malta, where I proceeded to write this message.

Based on the data present, the following questions must be asked:

-Who/what is the 167th?
-How did they manage to acquire this supposed transmission log?
-Is the 167th in league with the person stated within the transmission?
-Do they have any other allies?
-What would the 167th hope to achieve with this?

Though details are lacking, it can be assumed that the 167th is an organized group; the Shadow Outcast pilot that mentioned his encounter with them stated that there were three of them that flew in formation. As for the acquisition of the transmission log there exists the possibility that it was merely found amongst wreckage, or it was given to them. The breaks in transmission quality do seem analogous to the typical decay in data storage found amongst vessel wreckage; however, such transmission artifacts are also found in comm sources from within areas of intense radiation or spatial phenomena. If this transmission log was given to the 167th, it would also lead us to believe that they may be cooperating with this Al'Kazadh. Likewise, as seen in the last transmission excerpt, the 167th pilot reveals his path towards Omicron Gamma and Crete. It can also be assumed, then, that the 167th may be allied with the Corsairs or at least maintain some level of diplomatic understanding with them. The goals of the 167th, however, remain completely unknown. Such an act may be an attempt to extort the 101st somehow, or attempt to pull us further into another conflict. Dealings with such elements almost always result in their benefit.

I submit this information to the 101st Command for analysis and deliberation. I also understand that I may have breached operational protocols by taking a wing out of Alpha and into the edges of Bretonian space; I will personally assume full responsibility for any disciplinary actions if they are dispensed. My actions were based on instinct, and I apologize that I could not gain more data to definitively identify whether this situation requires our attention or not.

For the 101st and the Nation of Malta,

Devon Xaero

'Ten-shun, people. Listen up.

In a few hours from now, we'll get a once in a lifetime, (Well, colonial lifetime anyway) operotunity. Colonial one, that's their big-boss kind of ship, is going to be well within our range. For what and how, I honestly don't give a damn. All I know is that there will be toppers onboard that ship. Toppers we want either captured, or dead.

The mission ;

1.Assembling the squadron just outside of Malta orbit, 18:00 General Maltese Time.
2.Proceeding towards proximity of the Sigma's.
3.Awaiting important infromation from our informant.
4.Search.
5.Destroy.
6.Laugh.
7.Go home.

Simple enough? Thought as much. Please do keep in mind however that they'll probaply have a figther or two standing by. Doh.

That's it. Get some rest before the show folks. I'll meet you outside.
