After receiving reports about Core and Outcast activity in the Omicron Nu system, I alerted the rest of the fleet stationed in the region and proceed to scan the system for any warships.

The initial system scan gave no results, however we instead found a Zoner ship carrying Nomad materials. It complied with my orders and handed the restricted cargo over, shortly after. The captain of the Shenandoah asked the Zoner if any Core or Outcasts have been recently sighted nearby, however the answer was negative.

As we were heading back to the Battlecruiser St. Augustine, the Shenandoah picked up several Core warships incoming from the direction of the Omicron Minor jump hole. We scanned the ships and found more Nomad remains. At this time, the Core captains became aggressive and started to move against the Shenandoah. Furthermore, an Outcast battlecruiser arrived on the scene, which I and the LNS Starlight proceeded to intercept and destroy. As we were making our last preparations before opening fire, the Core warships began to attack us and other Navy units present. The small skirmish between Outcast and Liberty forces turned into an all-out conflict between the Navy, with LSF support, and the Outcasts, whom the Core began to directly aid in combat.

As the fighting continued, my battlecruiser was forced to retreat after suffering high damage to the weaponry and engine section of the warship. Guncams, along with the logs of the incident, will be attached below.

Long range scanners on the Wainwright detected a Core transport was passing by Planet Los Angeles whilst we were preparing for our next task, so we departed the area to halt it for questioning, following recent incidents with Core forces in the Omicron region.

At first, the captain of the transport refused to follow the given orders to stop, until reaching the Cortez Jump Gate perimeter. Scans showed it was hauling Iridium, likely taken from The Core's mining sites in Delta, into Crayter space. The captain accused us of "grouping with The Wild" and pointed that the Potomac, an Archer-class cruiser assisting us, was under their control. These baseless accusations were ignored and taken as nothing more than the propaganda The Core spreads frequently in the Omicrons about groups such as The Order.

The transport was ordered to turn around and follow our escorts out of Liberty space. After reaching the Fort Bush junction, the transport halted and refused to follow. It made an attempt to run into the Colorado system, however it was intercepted by the Potomac and destroyed by our gunnery crew for not following our directives.

Navy units in the Cortez system reported Outcast activity and as such our task group headed there to support. During the clash within the system, we succesfully disabled an Outcast battlecruiser with our newly-upgraded forward battery. Guncams of the skirmish and the incident with The Core's transport are attached below.

Outcast warship's destruction

Took command of the Fort Wainwright for a patrol into Texas and Virginia, however at the Virginia jump gate I encountered a Gateway transport hauling azurite. The pilot claimed to have acquired it from a freelancer and that he was headed to Bretonia with the materials. I ordered them to drop off the cargo, a significant part of which was tractored into the few containers available on the cruiser and delivered to Chadwick for research. The rest was promptly destroyed.

That is all.

Several days ago, after a Nomad warform was detected in Ontario, I took command of the Siege Cruiser "Fort Wainwright" and together with a Bounty Hunter, made short work of it. Following its destruction, a Nomad Fuel Cell was been discovered. It was delivered to Chadwick for extensive research.

Today, on the 5th of September, Navy units and more precisely, the Fifth Fleet, were informed by a Freelancer about a Researcher that goes by the designation of "Ridge" about his cooperation with Auxesian, Nomad and Xeno forces in Hudson and other Independent Worlds. The channel has been forwarded to me by Commodore Edwards and all the information is available here.

This concludes my report. Further evidence will be attached in future reports.

Operative Draco reporting in. I am here to confirm the arrival of the surveillance liner Sentry Eagle, codename RED EYE 3, in the system of Kansas on 03/30/829 A.S. at 1500 hours.

While en route, we have outlined and established several objectives to follow during our deployment in the military operation against the Liberty Insurgency and other possible threats. These include:

• Providing real-time information to Battleship Delaware & other present Liberty Navy/LSF assets within the system;
  
• Collecting information about possible cells of the Liberty Insurgency that have escaped initial detection;
  
• Intercepting and interfering with Liberty Insurgency communications and direct transmissions within Kansas.
  

Our outlined objectives are in line with standard procedures followed by other ELINT/surveillance vessels of the Security Force and Navy; all collected data with be redirected over secure channel to LIBCENTCOM for evaluation.

Operations will commence within 24 hours. The planned flight vector of RED EYE 3 is the sector Charlie-Four through Echo-Six, parallel to the Arkansas Asteroid Field. No escorts will be present to avoid detection by Liberty Insurgency recon patrols.

Operative Draco reporting in.

Our reconnaissance flights have revealed that the Crayter Republic is openly assisting the Insurgents. Several large convoys have been detected, heading to and from Planet Veracruz, during the course of this day, however we have only managed to get a close-up confirmation recently. The convoy we have intercepted maintained an "Enterprise"-class liner, carrying refugees, and is part of Crayter Republic's Intersun Luxury Liners company and were escorted by two Crayter snubcraft and an assortment of Insurgent ships.

We are closely monitoring the system for other convoys and will update the database with the necessary information should we intercept other Crayter vessels breaching the blockade. Our mission will resume within the following hours.

Operative Draco reporting in.

The Battleship Delaware, alongside her escorts, have been lost in a significant counterattack by Insurgent forces. No survivors have thus been confirmed; situation does not permit approach towards last location of Delware due to increase in Insurgent patrols. All vessels escorting the Delware are reported as destroyed until further notice and/or confirmation.

The Triton, an Interdictor-class Battlecruiser, has spearheaded the counterattack, suffering major damage in the process. Several Arbiter-class battleships confirmed as part of Planet Veracruz defence force; currently deployed in vicinity of Kansas Jump Hole following the destruction of the Delaware. Carrier Ohio to prepare for possible ambush within Arkansas Asteroid Field due to reported presence of several Insurgent capital ships.

We are continuing to monitor the Insurgent forces from within Vespucci. Supplies are at a stable level, thus we can remain in the system for the next months without need of resupply.

Draco, signing off.
