Our gratitude sensei Paulsen.
The Bretonian scum are no match for the warriors of the Emperor so they use tactics that are not soldier worthy. Unfortunately some of our ships fell to these pirate tactics. Thank you for recovering the pilot bodies and equipment.
Those Bretonians can get as many hull panels as they want but our guns will blast trough them anyway. Their battleships are just hiding behind minefields and defense platforms instead of meeting our forces in the battle, but our famous bombers are making short work of them.
I can meet you on battleship Nagasaki at 1700 (GMT) today. Please contact me privately if you need to arrange details.
Sakai out

Received your message and will be on Battleship Nagasaki in time, to hand you over the remnants of your brave soldiers and their personal equipment. I think it will be a relief for their families to know about their fate.

Honorable Kusari
Yesterday, BSG patrol was ambushed and destroyed in Tau-29 by [QCO/P] BAF forces, that penetrated your blockade of Taus. BAF forces had Battleship and Gunboat. Our Vipers are inadequate for stopping such massive capital ship fleets. Our "Gemini" bomber squadron lost 80% of its combat efficiency, due to loses and lack of equipment. 661. "Gemini" was hard pressed in major clashes against outcast capital ships and our current "Taiidan" class raptors are obsolete in almost every respect.
New, more aggressive intrusions of such massive BAF forces into Taus, together with already present pressure from Outcast forces from Omicrons, is putting IMG and BSG into a gap between hammer and anvil. We need your help and support before we get hammered into oblivion. First and foremost, we're in dire need of anti capital ship weaponry. We need bombers. I am asking your permission for a requisition of a small contingent of Kusari bombers, together with appropriate equipment, weaponry and spare parts. This would give us the "fighting chance" against all Outcast and BAF capital ships.
Whatever your decision may be, BSG will always stand ready to fight alongside KNF against malevolent and unwelcome intrusions of BAF forces into Taus and Kusari systems.
So say we all

Our newly formed KNF-K Bombers Wing is requiring all the bombers Kusari factories can produce, I'm sorry, at the moment only 1 (One) Kusari Bomber is available in our shipyard.
I hope it will be enough for this moment, as soon as the Katana Wing is ready will be surely sent to reinforce the Taus.
In the name of the KNF I thank you for your trust and I will be honored to fight at your side against unwelcome intrusions.

You have our gratitude Admiral. One Kusari bomber in the right, skilled hands can make all the difference. We also understand that this being a new ship design, is needed for KNF squadrons as a priority. We will do our best to repair and rearm as many of our existing Taiidan class raptors as we can, but this new Kusari prototype will be a welcomed addition.
We will contact KNF over real-time communications to arrange delivery of the bomber to BSG.

Consider this my official letter of retirement. It has been an honor to serve the Emperor with you. However, I must depart. My presence is a danger to the Blue Lagoon. I cannot tell you more, however, I will continue to serve the Emperor if I ever get the chance.

"hmm - posting that in the employment office would have granted you more attention for sure. if i had known that, i had assisted today against the NovaPG in my bomber. but since the BSG refused to pay me for it, i just passed through and ignored the battle that was close enough to see the weaponfire.
now that i came across that little message, i ll have my eyes open for enemies of the empire. - and there are many.
