Mesdames et Messieurs
As a proud Directeur of this company I would like to say a few words about our two exceptional employees who proved their worth. First I shall begin with Mademoiselle Lorraine.
Jeanne did an amazing diplomatic job regarding relations with the Corsair Empire. She successfully managed to establish a trade route between our two groups. I personally chose her as I believed that she was good enough for the job, it turned out that I was one hundred percent right as she did her job. Of course there are a few more details to be sorted, but we shall soon begin exporting Food Rations to Omicron Gamma and import Xeno Relics. Mademoiselle Lorraine has been promoted to Vice Directeur Général, congratulations Jeanne.
The second person to receive praise would be Monsieur Guimond. In the past few Months, Monsier Guimond did an amazing job in importing valuable materials from Tau-23 system as well as doing shipments, valuable shipments of Gate parts to Leeds. His involvement in the project cannot go unnoticed. Monsieur Guimond, you are now promoted to an Officier. You may command the employees if Monsieur Bouvet is not present. Congratulations and keep up the good work.
And for the end I would like to say that the Jump Gate construction project is going well, so far we have delivered a total of 10.548 units of Gate Parts to the New London Gate Construction Site. I am expecting more and more shipments to be completed as I don't want to waste our Majesty's time.
This would be all for now, Pomeroy out.

Bonjour esteemed individuals of Ile-de-France Shipping. This is security pilot Guimond Lavallée, in charge of laying out today's action report.
Due to recent events, our chief of security masked in mademoiselle Pomeroy's personal Lynx ordered a scouting patrol to accompany him in the scouring of the newly inhabited Zurich system. Our three Lynxes set off, starting from New Paris, and once we entered our target system, down the tradelane our wing regrouped and formed up in front of Oerlikon Stellar Observatory[1], serving as our starting and ending point.
Our first waypoint lead us 10 kilometers forward, from the starting point, specifically to the asteroid and particle cloud surrounding most of sectors B through C, 6 through 7. As the area is off limits, we did not enter the cloud, but from that point, our next destination was the three solar objects: Planet Avers[2] and its moons, the Cresta and the Ramsen[3].
While it was a rather beautiful sight, it wasn't very eventful, so waypoint number 3 lead us to the intersection of sectors G 6 through 7. In the asteroid and particle cloud located there, my wing ran into an unmarked, highly unstable jump anomaly, and while at first jump sequence was initiated only for the purpose of attempting to acquire any kinds of readings from the object, instead we ended up being catapulted onto the other side of the universe, literally and figuratively.
The anomalies exit lead to Cologne, a far off system in Rheinland space. No damage was caused to any of our ships, the finding was simply a bit baffling at the moment. Having a mostly secure way back to our Kingdom, my wing decided that a low profile scouting of the before mentioned system was in order.
Reaching the first trade lane, we were met by a stray Kempeitai patrol, their vessels callsigned EF|Tonbo and EF|Kagura. The conversation was short lived, but I'll attach its logs at the end of this transmission. After attempting to leave, our little yellow-skinned underlings attempted to follow, and as we didn't want to ruin the crowns reputation, instead of engaging the ill-mannered couple, we took a more strategic approach.
One of our pilots broke off by killing his engine, sliding his Lynx into a position capable of launching a cruise disruptor projectile from a safe distance. Myself and wing leader entered trade lane sequence, while our pilot shortly followed, bringing down the lane behind him with a loaded EMP mine just in time.
They followed us into Stuttgart, but there was at least 15 killometers worth of distance between us at all times until reaching Omega-7 closed the gap, making it a 10 killometer difference due to the jump gate queue. But, expectantly, the chief is witty with his strategies. Due to reduced scanner range within the Omega cloud, despite how close they were, the Kempeitai pilots could not exactly pin down our location. And while the fact flips both ways, it was no hindrance, as we only needed the general knowledge. After passing Brisen Mining Facility, our formation kept slowly inching towards the close edge of the system, meter by meter, until making an incomplete 180, now turning back towards the Stuttgart Jump Gate, coming in straight from behind while our eavesdropping pursuers kept looking for us cluelessly in the high density cloud.
After this little adventure, the wing made its return to Zurich using the same method which lead us to Cologne. Waypoint 4 was set towards the characteristic cloud covering sectors F through G, 3 through 4, which proved to be empty.
With nothing else of interest left for us, the wing made its way to the ending point, which concluded our patrol, and concludes this report. The entire explored map of Zurich will be left together with the before mentioned conversation logs.
Bonne soirée, Guimond Lavallée signing off.

Mesdames et Messieurs of Ille De France Shipping.
About twelve hours or so, Ille De France Shipping alongside EFL S.P.A. organized a large convoy from the Languedoc system. Molybdenum ore that was extracted on site by the GMS miners was loaded into our transports after which we made our way towards Rheinland.
Lately the Empire of Rheinland started importing tremendous amounts of Molybdenum ore. Fortunately our company started hiring more people which resulted in creating massive convoys. EFL S.P.A. as well has been busy and few of their transports joined our convoy.
The flight itself was uneventful, the road was crystal clear and we arrived on Planet New Berlin fairly quickly. From New Berlin we picked up Rheinbier - alcoholic drink appreciated by many miners in the Omegas. Rheinland is known for its rich resources one of them being Uncut Diamonds that are being extracted in Omega-2. Our convoy proceeded to that system after dropping the bier on Briesen M.F.
Two Independent Miners Guild pilots offered us Uncut Diamonds for some minor amount of credits. Once our transports were filled, we continued our flight back to Gallia. Again, the flight went with zero interruption and our diamonds were successfully unloaded on Sarcelles.
![[Image: XtzJlTy.png]](https://i.imgur.com/XtzJlTy.png)
Continuing from there, our convoy moved to Languedoc where once again we loaded our transports with Molybdenum ore. Unlike the previous run, our destination changed to the Omicrons, namely Omicron Theta.
In Tau-23 our convoy met up with a Captain of IDS-Aurora that offered us escort. After reaching an agreement, the convoy jumped to Kyushu and set course to Tsushima Depot. At the Samura station the convoy was interrupted by a Kusari Naval Force BattleCruiser.
The Captain's reason for stopping our convoy was "breach of Kusari law", not by us, but the person that was escorting our convoy. The Captain of IDS-Aurora was piloting a "Deimos" class Dreadnought, but was carrying affiliation of Independent Miners Guild. The KNF Captain temporary took the trade lanes down and soon after, our escort, using the Jump Drive, jumped away leaving us alone in Kyushu.
The discussion between us lasted almost an hour, but at the end Monsieur Guimond and I decided to pay the fine of 10.000.000 Sirian Credits and continue our flight. I have to say that I wasn't expecting KNF to start bullying Gallic Corporations like that and that incident shall not be forgotten.
Monsieur Guimond set the rendezvous point at Planet New Tokyo's orbit. Once all pilots were at the RV point, we proceeded to Shinagawa Station, but the lane was cut right on middle. An unknown Gunboat vessel interrupted our convoy demanding our cargo. Unfortunately the KNF vessels were nowhere to be seen therefore we had to deal with the hostile vessel on our own. We took the matter into our own hands and we successfully managed to destroy⚜ the enemy target without any losses.
From there we had a clear path to Omicron Theta. While unloading our cargo on the Zoner base, I received a message from a Corsair offering us Artifacts from Planet Knosssos. The name of the pilot was Sancho Panza and he was a member of the Corsair Brotherhood. The Artifacts were waiting for us on that planet after being extracted by the Corsair miner.
The way back to Gallia went smooth and the after unloading our cargo on Sarcelles, the sorting crew started doing their job.
Right after our ships were unloaded, I have received a direct message from Mademoiselle Pomeroy. In this message she asked my and my crew to transport Optronics⚜ from Honshu to the Navy Shipyard in Ille De France, Rambouillet Shipyard to be exact. She asked for 20.000 Optronics to be delivered there which my team did as soon I received the message.
End of report.

Bonjour Mesdames et Messieurs of Ille De France Shipping.
I am writing to report an incident during one of our convoys, where we encountered a Golden Chrysanthemum liner that suddenly appeared next to the New Tokyo jump gate in Honshu. A police officer was on scene to interdict the liner for possession of that disgusting Cardamine drug. As the officer did not have enough firepower to take down the liner alone, our convoy of Pachydermes and a security officer was asked to assist, and we dispatched the liner fairly easily, a testament to the skill of our transport captains and security officers.

Bonjour Mesdames et Messieurs of Ille De France Shipping.
An incident occurred while traversing the Omicrons, where we were engaged by a Auxesian bomber. The bomber was successfully removed and the convoy was safe aside from some damage to one of the EFL transports. We may want to get additional escorts, in case we run into something more dangerous.

Mesdames et Messieurs
I have terrible news. Yesterday around 23:00, La Charite Spaceport was forcefully taken from us by the Kusari Naval Forces. As far as I'm aware, there was no shooting on the base and that our employees are alive. I will try negotiating with them in order to get our people out of the system and back to their homes.
At the other end of Gallia, in Languedoc to be more precise, Kusari Forces moved their Battleship and Battlecruiser which are currently stationed near the Tau-23 Jump Gate. Reportedly, one of their fighter vessels - callsign [KNF]'Ronin'|66th, engaged EFL and IDF escorts. Luckily the Naval Force pilot wasn't as skilled as we expected him to be as he ran away.
I fear the worst Mesdames et Messieurs, I fear this is but the beginning and that the war is upon us. Therefore, all ships are to avoid going through Kusari.
That would be all for now, Pomeroy out.

Mesdames et Messieurs of IDF
It has been some time since I last spoke to you all. You're all well aware of the difficulties this company has gone through in the past few months. Starting from the Kusari invasion to their eventual defeat. We've suffered a lot. The loss of La Charite Spaceport and Montigny Shipping Platform has struck a heavy blow to our wellbeing. But that is not the end, as the Cologne corridor is still under heavy Hessian influence, limiting our business by a big margin.
I won't lie to you, we're in a very grim situation as of right now. Having said that, we've had similar issues in the past and yet our company managed to swim to the top and recover despite many obstacles that were on our way.
It is true that our beloved King favored us over other Gallic companies, but I'm afraid that time is long over. We must look forward and try to overcome these troubled times, which is why I am making this announcement.
Mesdames et Messieurs, as your current Directeur Général I am informing you that I - Sophie Pomeroy, will be stepping down from my position. The Board of Directeurs has appointed Monsieur Fernand Dimont to be the new Directeur Général of Ile De France Shipping. Monsieur Dimont is by far the most suitable person to lead this company and I have no doubts that from this point forward, this company shall see nothing but prosper.
I would like to thank you all for your attention, Monsieur Dimont will take it from here.
Mesdames et Messieurs, my name is Fernand Dimont. As Madame Pomeroy mentioned, I was appointed by our Board of Directeurs to be the new acting Directeur Général of our beloved company. I will keep it short as the road-map will be presented to you in the following week.
We must remain optimistic. The company will go through some changes - changes that are necessary for our progress. We will find a way to even out our losses from the war. It won't be easy and it won't happen overnight, so I urge to you to keep your heads up and continue working the way you have so far.
The last thing - no IDF ship is to enter Kusari space, trading with any of the Kusari corporations is banned from now on. Our company must look towards Rheinland. I sincerely hope that the Cologne situation will be resolved in our favor which will result in free trade with the aforementioned House.
As long as the Hessians occupy Cologne, out trade with Rheinland will be limited - caution is advised.
This will be all for now.
