SHIP ID: [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z. LOCATION: Battleship Hood, Dublin FROM: Nathan Zachary SUBJECT: Patrol around some bases in Bretonia
Greetings Comrades! Today I did a patrol between the bases in Bretonia, like Nebula Complex, Anglesey Abbey, Fortitudine and FortiSec. I jumped also in Omega-3 if there are any threat there, but nothing luckily *smiles*.
SHIP ID: [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z. LOCATION: Battleship Hood, Dublin FROM: Nathan Zachary SUBJECT: The Chronicles of a Protector, Keeping an eye on blue
Greetings Comrades! When I left New London system to begin my Nomad hunt, I found Corporal Kirk during my path. After a long research, I decided to reach California system. But in that time I saw a blue thing trusting a Zoner transport named Dark.Hurricane. I scan the ship, and here it is: A Slomon K'Hara ship named Kal'Reh. So, without losing time I engaged him, trying to protect the Zoner. The rescue was successful, and the Nomad escaped from us scared by my attack *smiles*. Lady Aelita of the Dark Hurricane ship thanked me about the rescue, and she asked me to escort her to Munich system. I accepted without regrets, and we go straight to Rheinland. We didn't encounter any pirates luckily, and the cargo of Lanthanum arrived successfully to Munich system. After that I returned to New London and I take a rest after an exciting, but hard adventure.

Ship Status : Severe Damage Received, Currently Under Repair
Subject : Nomad's Infestation in Tau-23
Priority : HIGH
First of all we're sorry for using our early version of report system.
The overall system took a major hit, forcing us to revert to basic version until we're able to fix it.
Report about strange signal in Tau-23 system proved to be real and threatening especially for all the IMG miners happens to be operating near the vicinity. What turns to be strange signal quickly evolved into a detection of a mass amount of Nomad's ship.
Fortunately, there's a few ship present near the area helping to get rid of this infestation. The fighter squad from A/) , a KNF cruiser, and even two capital ship from 72nd division of Maltese Navy named MNS-Aurora and MNS-Guadiana joining up the fight to help protect the miners operating there.
This in turn helped us dealing with the initial Nomad's infestation.
However, the tide shifted when a mass amount of unregistered ship type came in range of our scanner.
Judging from the visual image, it looks like to be a Liberty Dreadnought variant - but my crew didn't know why it's not registering as it is.
Sadly when we try to analyze it more, all of it focused their attention on us - overwhelming our shield and dealing severe damage on our system. Surprised and panicked by this, we're quite late to initiate our jump drive but ultimately still managed to escape from there. From then on we're shambling our way onto the nearby planet to repair our damaged system.
From this encounter, we suspect the high-frequency used by our special scanner might be the cause they're suddenly focusing
their attention toward us ... but we're not sure about it since that said system get damaged during the fight, making us unable to gather data from it.
All of the data gathered from every participating ship also lost, but we will attempt to recover it as best as we can

'Ello, lads,
I have some important news fer ya. I managed to get some data from my contact, that all of ye should now.
<1> The Core is tryin' to monopolize the iridium in 'Crons. It won't stop me from tryin' to secure it fer us, but it might hinder me eforts.
<2> If ya EVER see a nomad identified as Ish'tar, get away from him. Accordin' to my contact it has awfully strong weapons with an effective range of 8K! It was seen in Omicron Delta. So I guess it can appear in Lost and Minor too.
<3> Be carefull when ya see nomad identified as Kal'Reh. I have reports about him appearing in a lot of different places, even AFTER we dusted him in Stuttgart. He is aggresive and bend on killin' humans.

SHIP ID: [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z. LOCATION: Battleship Hood, Dublin FROM: Nathan Zachary SUBJECT: The Chronicles of a Protector, The Nomad Encounter
]Greetings Comrades! I see I've got my new hobby: Catching and hunting Nomads! I was in Tau-29, searching for something to do, when I met a Colonial Soldier named Hellfire. He told me he had seen a Nomad in the range of 14k, so I accept to help him find the blue threat. After a few minutes, 2 Nomads appeared near the Tau-23 Jump Hole. Here comes the conversation:
Code:
[29.09.2016 17:02:54] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** 'Ours' evaluate/discern status... ~youngling~ (ire) ***
[29.09.2016 17:03:10] CR|-Hellfire: Found you
[29.09.2016 17:03:35] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** 'Yours' are to leave/depart (sternness) ***
[29.09.2016 17:04:11] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** -Leave- (ire) ***
[29.09.2016 17:04:20] CR|-Hellfire: Nope
[29.09.2016 17:04:21] [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z.: I don't understand your concern, stranger
[29.09.2016 17:04:34] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** 'Ours' safeguard ~youngling~ (protectiveness) ***
[29.09.2016 17:04:56] [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z.: Ah, seems Nomads have freshmeat here
[29.09.2016 17:05:31] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** 'Ours' root out corruption/threat... ~youngling~ (protectiveness)... -mighty- spitfire (!) ***
[29.09.2016 17:05:40] K'Hara|Apsarasa: *** 'Ours' (disgust) -judge- pollution/filth... unfit -stream- 'ours' ~voids~ ***
[29.09.2016 17:05:46] CR|-Hellfire: Take your kid or whatever it is, and go back to where you come from.
[29.09.2016 17:06:03] [FL-ER]Cpt.Nathan.Z.: Well engage the enemy!
[29.09.2016 17:06:10] The.Shovel: Hellfire, do you need assisntace
[29.09.2016 17:07:46] The.Shovel: Go boys, keep at it! And I will watch and eat!
[29.09.2016 17:08:58] The.Shovel: have fun over there, Im out.
[29.09.2016 17:10:20] Death: CR|-Hellfire was put out of action by K'Hara|Apsarasa (Gun).
[29.09.2016 17:14:55] Death: K'Hara|Apsarasa suffered a self-administered loadout error (Mine).
[29.09.2016 17:16:42] The.Shovel: The nomads were all over that system
After that, they engaged us. Unfortunately, the wingman Hellfire was taken down, but I get his revenge, by killing Apsarasa in a mine accident, he face his own mine and my mine in one hit. I got lucky a lot this time *smiles*. After that I was tired, and I docked at Java Station, Tau-23, proud of this victory, and ready for another adventure.
I've got some more information I'd like to share with ya. When I was tradin', in fact twas the trip to Liberty with Hackers Kirk reported about, I happened upon a heavily armed outcast Storta destroyer named "The.Showel", with an Freelancer IFF. I've no other info on it, but I suggest to be careful.
Other thing, Andra Sullivan warned me bout 'Casts and when I asked, she told me she saw 'em helpin' noms. Accordin' to her they are infected or a bunch or religious fanatics....Which kinda implies they worship Nomads. Ugh. She warned me 'bout s specific grup called National Council, and I hafta say, it sounded fammilliar. Well, guess what I remembered seein' in the debths of Neural Net. This set of laws, announced publically. Seems the National Council is the current ruler of the Maltese...
I'd advise 'gainst any deals with Outcasts fer now.
Today was a day full of tradin' fer me, but I had several interestin' encounters I'd like to share. Fist one was a KNF Pilot in New Berlin. Strange no? The next one was an Order snub near Freeport 1. Then there were two Liberty Navy Transports, in Newcastle, near the Tau-31 Jump Hole. On of 'em was caryin' quite large amount of liqiud cardi. When on the route from Falster back to Newcastle I was stoped by Gallic policeman. I was chargin' me weapons, when he asked fer a cargo scan. No kiddin! He casually scanned me and let me go. I thought I die from the laughter. Well and the last one was the best. I... I ain't able to describe it so I just send ye the logs. I dinnae laughed that much in a long time.
[01.10.2016 00:01:51] Marcel.Gilles: Firefly, bonsoir, please stand by
[01.10.2016 00:02:04] [FL-ER]Firefly: Uh.. what?
[01.10.2016 00:02:15] Marcel.Gilles: Pardon the harshness, I just needed to proceed with a cargo scan for contraband
[01.10.2016 00:02:29] Marcel.Gilles: Go on, si vous plait.

[01.10.2016 01:14:58] Kosmo$: huhu
I've done the occasional escort, the occasional fight, nothing out of the ordinary.
I have been mainly busy with the Nomad problem.
I've learned about a bacteria that can dissolve a human body in a matter of hours, native to planet Gaia, so I thought, if it can do this to a human, why not a Nomad?
Theoretically, if this bacteria can be bio-engineered to attack Nomad tissue, if it doesn't already, imagine what dropping a load of bio bombs on the Nomad fleets would do to them.
We could devastate entire populations of them without firing a shot.
I tried to persuade our old friend Flora to get me some for researching, but unfortunately she was too scared of the idea.
Of course, Xalo didn't react nicely when he saw me and Flora talking to each other, so we had a little ruffle scuffle, but it's solved now, at least from my side.
The rumble in the jungle with Xalo did something to me however.
I realized how long I have been clinging to old relics.
I came before you and presented myself by my pirate nickname, Redfire.
I am surprised actually, that none of you tried to get me reveal my true identity.
My name is Ivan Norovich.
I own a vessel named Sanctum, it is a Condor-class gunboat, but I had it retrofitted to suit several people's need for comfort, you are all invited for a drink aboard it.
