Pearce here with details of a pleasantly efficient skirmish,
Jarael had gotten herself into a scrap with a Ransuer and we'd been called in to assist. Thinking it'd be easy work, a Samarran came in torpedoes-blazing to hassle our wing. I actually took him out so quickly I didn't even get a proper scan, and with him out of the way "Siberian100" was soon destroyed too.
For the Guild,

A short one for me,
One convoy I ended up babysitting alongside Josh Hannigan, the usual Silver run from the Omegas to Harris and onto Siloso. I've got Jenna up on Java for a bit, so we'll be closer to Sam and Dennis while they work with the Discordians.
Speaking of my husband, he was just setting off to New Berlin before getting a shuttle back up here.
We did quite some flights, and I did not have to report all of them myself. Thanks to Owens, I could cut down on the red tape a little.
So, a few things were noteworthy, though. Because... I think I put up the first cruiser kill as a claim for the newly CAU8 armored Shire "Falling Teardrop", as well as an intercept kill on a slaver.
1. Day.Walker - Outcast Storta
The Storta intercepted the convoy at Harris and was able to single out one. He was forced to pay, while the rest made it to Harris safely. After that, bomber wings from T23 flew in, so I decided to keep the pirate warship busy talking.
The bombers engaged and I joined in. I was honestly curious in the protection that the warship class 8 armor provides and even though I took a fair deal of damage, 12 type 3 guns did some fair share of damage on him, too.
1. Inqus - small Slaver Transport
Anna McCarthy spotted a slave transport and gave chase. Her Sabre lacked the firepower to take it out. My Shire did not. He exploded, the slaves were taken to Freeport 10 and freed.

So, this concludes the interesting part. These are the routine reports of the convoy activity of the last weeks.

The Omegas have been remarkably quiet for quite a while. We are running our routing patrols but there is hardly anything to report. So... I'll just keep it that short.

Good morning guildmembers
Started off early in Omega 7 today. Felt like getting up and earning some money again... I took out Golden Handshake today and got it filled with Cobalt ore.
We filled out the other transports too, in no time. After forming up we headed to New Tokyo, Narita. Where an order was placed for the ore. Don't have an exact view on the manifest or the order bill, but they were happy to see that we were well represented... Even a Renzu joined up and acted as additional scout for us. Good guy, kept his eyes open... all we could ask for.
Some time later after the dropoff we gathered at New Tokyo to pick up supplies for Fort Siloso. There was quite some traffic, but the surveillance team was so kind to send me a picture of the convoy as we were waiting.
That was all, no further incursions of any kind. Supplies safely dropped off.
PS @ adminstrative matters: my console is telling me that i'm 1 convoy report short of an award. I was wondering if you could check the files again cause i'm sure there should be more. At any rate, I heard there was some sort of medal unlocked with this transport convoy. But i'll leave it up to you. My stats are attached below.
Last week probably was one of the fighting-heaviest lately - Tau 23 was comparable to a trench war between Java and the Outcast Rock. Most of the time I acted as support asset in tactical craft, but also scored my own or major assist-kills.
Furthermore a few engagements in the Omegas with IMG-hostile Hessian and Coalition groups resulted in several pirate ships being eliminated.

A large convoy departed from Java towards New Berlin, the Omega-Route. The Ore delivery was a smooth operation with not a single interruption; however, in the Omega corridor a group of Hessians, consisting of three Bombers and a Gunship, tagged RH- ambushed us and managed to destroy one transport before all their forces were vaporized.
Konnichiwa, Guild! Today, while getting supplies for Siloso, I came across an interesting sight at Java!
I'm not sure how, but it actually managed to dock on Java! Weird, huh? Anyway, that's all for now! Siloso resupplied with some 3k FOW and 500 BAs! Until next time! Sayonara!
Hey, Julia here. We did a lot of activity today. The Commander of the IMG|Gyrlas does the convoy reports - or else I will find and kick him in his butt.
What I report though is a smuggling run that we did when we returned from a Silver run to Harris and delivered H-Fuel to Arranmore.
We did three transport loads of H-Fuel
4660 units by IMG|Julia.Morrow
3250 units by IMG|Sucker.Punch
4125 units by IMG|Sunrise[R]
Visual proof:
Mr. Jack Henderson has been handed the material to report it to the Mollys.
Greetings fellow IMG members, this will be my first report of many.
Yesterday (29/03) I smuggled H-Fuel to the Molly Base Arranmore
While today I participated in two large scale convoys with fellow IMG members.
The first of which was done with just three of us.
IMG|HunterHms[R]
IMG|Sea
IMG|Cow.Run
We delivered Niobium from Tau- 23 to New Berlin both myself and IMG|Cow.Run were both in Shires IMG|Sea was providing scout and was in an Eagle. The trip was mostly uneventful up until IMG|Sea took us through to Chugoku and was unable to find the Sigma- 13 Jumphole. After a short time searching for it we then proceeded onto New Berlin with no disruptions or events to report of.
The second convoy was larger in size and cosisted of the following players:
Only event worthy of mention on this convoy run was the meeting of a corsair Battleship at the Dublin Jumphole on the way back however all members of the convoy survived and profit was made.
