Also Started at Scarborough, this time I loaded Super Alloys and took them to Wuppertal Refinery. I replaced the cargo with HazMat Canisters, and returned with them to Scarborough.
Incidents:
As i was passing by Aland on the way to Rheinland, a Hessian stopped me asking for a "donation" of 1,000,000 Sirius Credits, and i "donated". Also he asked for 10 units of my Super Alloys in exchange for some civilians, and again I accepted for the good of those people, and I delivered them safely to Wuppertal.

Convoy Information: Finally had something going again, we ran mixed cargo of Raw Beryllium ore and refined Beryllium to New Berlin. From there we took some Small Arms to Fujisomething in Okinawa, from there H-Fuel back to New London.
Quite the trip ey. *chuckles*
Convoy Incidents:
Well...It wasn't cherrypicking at first, in Omega 3 we already had some psychos sitting around babbling nonsense when a Jelly arrived and sat around with them.
We apruptly decided to just move past them while they were dreaming and talking, after they noticed that we already left they tried to catch up with us all the way until New Berlin.
There the Rheinland Military finally woke up and came out do keep them at bay.
While a Gatewaybug crawled out aswell stomping around like a spoilt brat.
We made short work of that lad in Sigma 13 though... *laughs* he managed to scratch the paint of the Redgrave and the Gladstone, but his demise was glorious.
On our way back we again had trouble in New Berlin with the psychos still being around, only this time Peters ran up front in some vain attempt to play hero and got the Gladstone badly damaged in return. He then jumped onto the Conway and did something else.
We managed to outsmart the madmen though, and everybody made it back unharmed.... except Peters who's pride might be a little scarred right now.
Other Notes:
Gateway ships are the best when subdued by Bowex.
Madmen arn't smart most of the time and.... *sighs* gin isn't a good replacement for whiskey.

From:Rodney Stuart To:BowexInfoNet Topic:Convoy and transportation report
Convoy participant(s): - Ronald Farbridge
- Leam Blackburn
Report info: Few days ago i had to transport some Raw Material to New Berlin, i also had to sleep there.
Sir Rondald waited me in Omega 3 system where we both went to Dublin system for Gold ore which was mined by BMM miner. When my transport was good to go sir Leam Blackburn joined the convoy so the 3 of us went to Liberty and sold Gold ore for a quite good price. Sir Leam B. was a in front and sir Ronald F. was rear... i had a really good 'bodyguards" *smiles*.
From Liberty, planet Pittsburgh to be precise i took Boron and sold it on New London planet. On our way back from Liberty to Bretonia we had no incidents, so i can say that this convoy went well.
Other notes: After the convoy was finished i went to Dublin where i bought Gold ore from BMM miner and sold it again on planet Pittsburgh and safely returned home.

Convoy Information: Our mission was simple, getting there rather not, The Elitzabeth I had to be brought back from Okinawa to New London.
We had a rather nasty run in Omega 3, where the pesky Gateway folk damaged a Transport of ours extensively, for what we hunted all their pathetic pilots down. *laughs* They didn't even manage to drop the shields of the Newton once.
I don't have much memory of any other events though, was swearing at Gateway.
Rest of the run went down without a hitch though all save back in New London now.
Convoy Incidents:
Already noted it above no need for me to say it twice.
Other Notes:
I've still got a nasty headace of that creepy encounter over Southamton with those crazy Rheinlanders, which helped a little against Gateway.
I'm hoping that I never have to meet those nutjobs again though.

BMM Dover, Shire, BMM- employee George Wells.
BMM Harrogate, Shetland, BMM- board member Stan Graham.
BES Bentley, Shetland, employee Rodney Stuart.
General information:
Me and Mr. Wells mined up the Harrogate and Bentley with beryllium, while the Dover was brought in from Dublin newly filled with gold ore. Then Ms. Tomomi flew us to Rheinland, destinations Dortmund and planet New Berlin.
Incidents:
The convoy was brought to a full stop when two fishmen bombers (callsigns: Wilde.Wesen and Wilde.Stefanie,Gottlieb) halted it in the Ulm->Freiburg lane. They revealed their true nature, but our battle-hardened minds resisted most of their influence. Save for Wells, the man's a rookie still. The fishmen then took out the Dover and Bentley respectively, the hulls are being towed as of sending this. Aiding the convoy was RNC-StahlAuge but it didn't manage to take either out as far as we are aware. Ms. Tomomi and the Harrogate made it safely to Freiburg.
Additional notes:
Fishmen cloaking technology just kicked our arses, I want a scanner against that! Oh, and make your lazy employees do the reports, I've got paperwork as it is.
General information:
Right, well with the high demand for cobalt ore and the Bowex fleet occupied elsewhere we decided to take this shipment for you. The transports were loaded on King's Cross station and the cargo was moved to Scarborough station in Newcastle. On the return trips they carried a mixture of waste, ship building equipment and alloys. Also, the New London university has received the requested JibberDrill 31 and can continue construction of the specialized rain gauge prototype. A grand total of four trips KC to Southampton and back were finished.
Incidents:
On the third trip, in the New London jump gate->Lancaster a local spike in the ionic levels appeared as the Harrogate was passing and the massive technological failure caused systems to go dark. Reportedly a rip in space appeared and plunged failing ship a whole solar system away; recovering just a short bit away from the King's Cross. Miraculously only minor damages were sustained and work could continue, but it was just dumb luck that the ship didn't plunge into the sun or worse; a children's hospital on New London. Let us thank whatever heavenly powers graced us in this seemingly simple endeavour made dangerous.

BES Montfort
BES Wilberforce.II
Convoy Information:
We transported Beryllium Ore from Kings Cross to Dortmund Station. After that we headed to Holstein, the Wilberforce brought a load of Oxygen to the Planet. And then from Holstein we transported Cigars back to New London
Convoy Incidents:
It was a smooth run

Convoy Participants: BES Orange
BES Montfort
BES Gardner
EX-sec Pilot Hans Liljefors
Convoy information:
The Orange and Liljefors went from kings cross towards Rheinland and back with a load of ores. The montfort awaited our arrival at New Berlin. Gardner joined us at Freeport 1 with a load of ores as well.
Orange and Garner got aluminium ore in Munich from a DHC affiliate base. Montfort flew cigars back home.
Nothing major happend but it must be said that Liljefors should be kept on a short leash. He does not show any respect to his superiors and in crisis situations this might lead to casualties.
Convoy incidents:
A possible pirate situation in omega 7 was difused due to an early warning from BAF forces and a deployment of an RNC cruiser
Notes:
Suggest Re-evaluation of the BES Gardners Convoy accreditation as well as a full engine work-up of that vessel.

BES Whittle, Shire, senior supervisor James Barnes.
General information:
After the Whittle's return from a very long trade mission in California, this convoy started in New London upon its return. The Whittle carried a holdfull of beryllium ore while the 2nd Wilberforce took care of our orders for scrap from the Southampton field as well as toxic materials, and we set off for Dortmund station, New Berlin. Returning to Bretonia, both transports carried holds full of HazMat containers from Dortmund to Scarborough, Newcastle. Lastly, from there we carried super alloys to planet Cambridge where the convoy stopped.
Incidents:
Luckily (and with a hint of skillful maneuvering) no unfortunate encounters were had during this trip.
Additional notes:
Chief-o's old Whittle is slow as always, might want to have a look at her power core and engines?
To: Bowex InfoNet Priority: Medium. Topic: supply report.
Convoy Participants: BES Orange
Convoy information:
Took the Orange out for a daily supply runs to Kings Cross station
Delivered approximately:
10.000 units of reinforced alloys

3000 units of Foodrations(of the good type)
about 11 people flew out from KCS and 9 people flew in.
Convoy incidents:
One of the BPA Liason constables who was flying back to London acted like he was high on Cardamine and thought he could breath in the vaccuum. He tried to open one of the airlocks. One of his Co-workers and 2 Bowex Dockhands were able to constrain him. He has been taken into custody by BPA internal affairs on Planet New London.
Notes:
Suggest Re-evaluation of parnership with BPA and BAF to provide security for Kings Cross station.
