Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am happy to report that the work progresses to get the Ulster Annex Bases prepared for their movement.
Today, TCL|Cypriot delivered both additional supplies of Reinforced Alloy for the building of the proposed linear and triangular structural braces, but also a surplus supply of Hull Segments to augment structural rigidity of the station's hulls at the attachment points for those necessary braces.
Our Hercules Base Contruction Platform ships Atlas 1 and Atlas 3 are onsite in Galileo to assist in the building and placement of the Reinforced Bracing Struts, and Several Titanic Heavy Tankers are enroute to take the smaller, removable modules and storage tanks to Dublin in advance of the primary Annex Base segments being moved.
All the needed work is being accomplished at good speed, and I anticipate that all minor systems will have been removed by the end of this work week, with preliminary disassembly operations upon the primary base segments also commencing immediately.
The remaining Atlas BCP teams have been recalled from their training and practice operations in New London and have been ordered to report to Galileo with haste.
I fully expect that we will have major base segments ready to move in the next few days.
Respectfully,
D. Jamison
Chief of Logistics

Encryption : High Priority
Good day to you all,
Myself and Steve Hornet initiated the procedures needed to position the Hercules towing-vessels with their heavy lifting rigs, to dismantle the structures, as proposed by David Jamison on previous communications.
Both installations have had four Hercules platforms move into position to ready the transportation of more components from Annex - 1 and Annex -2.
These lifters will work on a shift pattern within the next 48 hours to complete the work and will then proceed to tow the installations to Dublin, using the route that has already been planned by our Chief of Logistics.
Below you will find documentation of the lifters in position. Myself as well as other crucial personell will be on sight for the next 48 hours to ensure this operation starts well and can be completed as soon as possible. This in turn would allow for a timely start to the moving part.
As pictured at Annex-1 here we have 4 Hercules making preparations for the dismantling of anything that can be stowed aboard our Titanic transports which have been fitted internally to accomodate more space by removing non essential systems and pods.
Another 4 heavy lifters are placed at Annex-2 and also ready for the same procedures.
Once we have initiated these procedures we will bring the operation into the movement stage.

It is now the day we move the modular stations from Galileo to Dublin, and so far we have initiated the Hercules Lifters to dismantle certain sections of the installations and have safely transported them to Dublin under a heavy escort from our Guard security ships.
During their journey they encountered some small Xeno and Rogue patrols who were dispatched without any problems, and also had a small skirmish with some Mollys aswell but again they were taken care of quickly. All parts have been offloaded and stored at Ulster for the time being.
The chief engineer and also my Chief of Logistics are now ready to move the installations on my signal.....
" Three.... Two.... One.... GO"
Very very slowly the lifters have been placed strategically so that the structure that is left on both the Annex's can be steadied as the y are towed with small bursts from the thrusters of the Hercules ships which are clamping the structures and keeping them steady as they are towed by the rest of the vessels. On standby is TCL|Trojan-HS-COM, which is our mobile command centre for this venture.
So far I have watched the structures as they go slowly but steady through Galileo and so far everything is running to plan. Both installations make it to the Colorado Jump Gate and make it safely to the other side. Once in Colorado its more of a straight run through to the New York jump gate and as I watch its a very impressive sight to see this operation finally underway.
Both installations are successfully jumped into New York, and now is the difficult part of the trip. We established that we would hace to slightly alter course and not use the trade lanes at this part of the journey due to the amount of installations and traffic within the system. So Mr Jamison, Chief of Logistics has arranged for the ships to raise their height by 5k, so that we run smoothly through the system.
We pass by the 46th Headquarters which is a very impressive installation and also past Fort Bush, and we continue past the junction towards Norfolk rather than taking the path towards Manhatten. Once again, the operation at this stage is running smoothly and we have negotiated past Norfolk on the way to West point, where the Convoy will stop briefly to assess the trip to California.
Reaching West Point and making sure everyone is safe, we understand there are some Insurgence vessels within California that may cause problems. Guard vessels are dispatched into California to scout the area, and have radioed back to say the path is clear, but they continue to monitor the situation.
Once into California, we raise the speed of the lifters slightly just to make sure that we can gather speed enough to get through quickly. We have seven Guard vessels within a perimitter of 5k and they hold that perimmiter as we gather speed towards the Cortez System, once again not using the lanes. Safely we breeze past planet Curacao, which is a beutiful Planet home for Orbital Spa & Cruise.
Once past Curacao, and all looks safe we dispatch our Guard vessels further into the next system to once again scout ahead. Guard vessels have encountered a small hostile group, which could be a threat to the convoy, so they are ordered to dispatch them if attacked.
Our Chief of Security initiates a warning to the vessels to stand down, and they comply, seeing as they are outnumbered by our Security vessels.
We jump and make it into the next system, which is Manchester, and this is where we take a short break and make sure the installations and the Hercules lifters are managing to keep the installations secure. We get a report from our engineers that Annex - 1 is looking a bit unstable, and he suggests that we need to stabilize the structure before proceeding any further. Being in a vulnerable position we are able to dispatch our Guard ships to split into two groups and hold in Cortez and also set perimitters in Manchaster.
Having to sit for a long period dramatically raised my concerns of an attack and we got quick response from our engineers that we were safe to proceed.
We carried on and it seems the installation has stabilised for now, and we will make sure we dont have to increse our speed any more on the last leg of the trip.
Cruising at a slow pace through Manchester we make sure that we do not interfere with any traffic that is present. Reaching the New London jump gate, we have setup a perimmiter to make sure the installations are safe as the initiate the jump to New London.
Once in New London, it is definately the final leg towards Dublin, and everything runs smoothly and the jump to the Dublin system is finally made.
The installations are finally brought to their new resting place and will be finally put into place over the next 72 hours once they are stabilised and secure.
Good job everyone.

It has been only a few days, and it seems we are gaining more staff by the day. Our goals will be to fill positions within our organisation regarding Logistical Directors, who will be our main points of contact and convoy organisers within Interspace regions.
TCL operatives will run with the signed up trade vessels, and we are also trying to develop some contact with an escort company, and will soon get details of what can be done.
regular convoys will be formed and the security details will be imperitive to our success when completing contracts or hauling for our own resources.
More details will follow soon, lets get busy and make more convoys.
Good day all,

We had our first coordination convoy yesterday, and i must say that we were doing fine until we encountered the aliens within the Omicrons. We thought we were well prepared for the operation, but it seems we were not.
We had our other good friends DrengrCo Security Services giving us escort at the time, and I must commend the two pilots from their organisation for at least trying to protect the convoy, but unfortunately the alien vessels were too powerful and large for them to do anything effectively.
We will be ceasing all operations within the Omicrons until we can establish contact with the Core, so that we can safely enter those regions again.
Any signed up independant vessels can obviously continue into those regions if they feel they can be safe. We will be more prepared next time and will coordinate more with the DrengrCo team ro maximise security ready for the trip.
