If you are receiving this, my deadman's switch has triggered meaning it has been 48 hours since I checked in with the neural net. I am either dead, floating in an escape pod in space, or captured. To all enemies of Gallia or friends of the crown, I ask for your assistance. I am broadcasting my last uploaded flight plan along with my personal logs in the hope that there is a clue somewhere in there that will lead you me, whatever my fate. Good luck to us all, and I hope to see you soon. Newport out.

Captain Newport, please respond.
It has been 10 days since your last transmission. Due to lack of check in, and the nature of your automated message, if you are recieving this, you are ordered to respond and report to the Resistance HQ on Leeds for debrief ASAP. If you do not reply, I will have to assume you were in fact destroyed or captured. Because of that possibility, if you do not report to HQ within 48hrs, you will be marked as MIA, and a bounty may be levied upon your vessels until you report. Your security access has also been revoked pending debrief.

Greetings Skipper, it's been a while,
I am proud to say I'm back on the grid. Not terribly proud of how I got there. We definitely need to talk. I've managed to acquire a new ship and am back on Leeds, ready for debrief and future orders.

Captain Newport,
I'm going to have to order to you to remain grounded until further notice. Your use of the LRF tag on your vessels is suspended as well. Please, explain your absence and the reason for your delay? You were absent quite some time and unfortunately that puts you under suspicion of treason. Please explain.
Until this matter is resolved, you are confined to quarters at the Resistance base, and your vessels are to remain docked. A security detatchment will escort you to your quarters after you explain what happened after you sent that signal.

Skipper,
I'm in my quarters, my ship is grounded and well guarded. Rumors of a drunken joyride to orbit to taste space one last time before returning to base are... not entirely inaccurate. In any event, I'm now here and sober and ready whenever you are.
