Today the Crayter Republic Intelligence Service was alerted to the presence of a Gallian Enclave insurgent battlegroup entering the wartorn Leeds system by way of Tau 31. A small strike force of 2 Pytho bombers and 2 Nyx fighters was imeediately diverted to aid the Bretonian forces in the area.
Upon arriving, the fight rapidly escalated as the first Enclave battlecruiser and her escorts soon grew in strength as the conflict wore on.
The CR group, led by CAG James Rascal "Hellfire", deployed to their strengths and making use of tactical positioning and surgical bombing strikes were able to overcome the Enclave battlegroup taking down 3 cruisers and several gunboats aided by several wings of Bretonian fighters.
In a last ditch effort, the Enclave Defense Authority dispatched a small precision group of heavy fighters to counter the Republic strike team and a fierce firefight ensued. An independent Crayter fighter "Datsun" nearby was able to join the CR force in prosecuting the enemies.
In the end, the Enclave fighters were no match for the combined strength set against them and were vanquished. The broken remnants of the Gallian Enclave force were routed and either escaped or were hunted down.

This evening, while patrolling the Taus, long range scanners picked up Outcast pilot Valdivia jumping into Tau 29. A few minutes behind him, I pursued him in my Nyx and entered the trade lane. A few seconds later, my scanners picked up 3 fighters, Valdivia, Hitman-47, and GC-Meian. I immediately ordered the Outcast pirate to leave at once or face Crayter justice, his response, a taunt, so I engaged.
The Golde Chrysanthemum pilot remained at the edge of the encounter not getting involved and took off after a corporate ship. In the meantime, the Bounty Hunter and myself continued to engage Valdivia. GC Meian lost her prey and so returned and decided to enter the fray. I quickly warned her of our diplomatic status as neutral but didn't have the time to further warn further that by aiding a pirate against Crayter Republic forces, she'd be committing a crime and therefore strain diplomatic tension between their organization and our nation.
Shortly after the GC pilot joined the fight, the bounty hunter pilot Hitman-47 broke and ran leaving me alone. GC Meian detached from the engagement and chose to watch, offering aid if the Outcast pirate requested it.
After a bitter struggle, Valdivia overwhelmed my systems defenses and my ship was crippled.
I pass this to High Command, whom I'm sure will require a swift explanation from Golden Chrysanthemum headquarters.

Today while on patrol in Coronado, deep scanners picked up 2 ships flying in convoy, Smugglers Dream and Argo, which naturally raised suspicion. I made a loop of the system, checking likely points to intercept the vessels and located them outside Barrier Gate Station A. A quick scan revealed Smugglers Dream's hold was empty but Argo's was not. It had Black Market Munitions.
I made the citizen aware of his illegal act and imposed a fine of 2 million credits and ordered the cargo dropped for immediate destruction. The pilot of Argo willingly complied and was amicable in the exchange, unlike his compatriot. The pilot of Smugglers Dream persisted in belligerantly declaring his ship name was of no issue when I recommend he change it soon to avoid constant hassle by local military and police forces. In the end, I left the convoy to their plans after the exchange was over and continued my patrol.
High Command, please instruct an account to deposit the imposed fine.

Today, while mopping up operations at Sabah Shipyard, intersystems comms came to life requesting urgent aid in the nearby Cortez system. Miners reported seeing a Liberty Rogue destroyer chasing them from the ice fields. Two bombers went out immediately, myself and callsign "Zulu" and word was put out for reinforcements to rendesvouz.
We sent out a brief message out to neighboring naval forces and were answered by the Liberty Archer-class Siege Cruiser Warship Washington who responded and made way to join. We fell upon the pirate in vessel BadBlood at Montezuma base, joined by CAG "Hellfire" and Crayter Police officer Isabella Cross. The Rogue seemed in a halucinated state and started spilling insults at all approaching.
Our group converged and addressed vessel BadBlood and ordered his immediate departure from the system but he stubbornly refused. The firefight that ensued was brief as multiple Nova torpedoes, seige gun, and laserfire raked his vessel. The pirate immediately try to defend himself, but realizing his chances were minimal, he docked with a nearby pirate base with the smoking wreck of his ship crashing down into Montezuma's landing bay.
We don't expect this vessel to lift off again for a long while. Our work completed, we made a quick patrol of the system and headed home.

A squadron set out of Sabah with the destination of Tau-37 for patrol. This squadron composed of 4th.Maxim, Zulu, |Hellfire|. , Samantha_Kandros and an independent operative by the name of Shuttle. Upon arrival to Tau-37 we found a junker slaver "BeachBum" in a "Pitbull" Pirate Train, 2 major offences right off the bat. He then stalled for time trying to wait for something to happen. We made him pay a fine and free his slaves on freeport 10. As we did this an outcast Battleship with a rogue IFF "Badblood" come at us, he fired upon |Hellfire|. at close range destroying his ship and disregarding the no fire zone. He then imideatly fired upon me but his aim wasn't true and he shot the freeport as I evaded. While we were in that situation a GC ship hauling Cardimine strolled right up. Zulu and Samantha broke off to hadle them, I stayed with Hellfire and the junker. The rest of the squadron arrived and tried breaking the ship, as we did multiple Enclave ships appeared and we had to retreat. As we were pulling out the enclave said he received a distress call from a GC ship, presumably the one hauling cardimine. We pulled back to Tau-23, regrouped and engaged the enclave chasing us. All the ships who followed where destroyed. https://imgur.com/nNmhdxN https://imgur.com/7T0e6yV https://imgur.com/fWzxNYJ https://imgur.com/yE7l4jd

Long range scanners picked up Badblood in Tau-37, so a wing was formed and headed out including =CR=|Hellfire|., =CR=4th.Maxim, =CR=Zulu and myself. On our way there we ran into a Junker vessel "BeachBum", a pirate train full of slaves. While we were interrogating the slaver a GC transport Julie_Rowe showed up with a cargo hold full of Cardamine.
The GC vessel refused to stop and jumped to Tau-23. We split up and pursued the drug transport with Zulu to which they responded by opening fire at us. We returned fire but the transport managed to crash land on Cali Base before we could take it down. I need to do better. The transport should've been an easy prey, I must not let myself lose focus like that again.
We regrouped with the others at Freeport 10 who were talking with Badblood at the time. Just as we arrived, Badblood opened fire in the Freeport NFZ and shot down =CR=|Hellfire|. with a quick salvo. On Zulu's command we engaged the battleship. We made pretty good progress even with two bombers, but then another Outcast battleship MNS_Mano_Izquierda and two Enclave fighters MdG/-Samuel.Deschamps and MdG/-Marc.Toure appeared and joined the fight. We were substantially outgunned and had to retreat to Tau-23.
The enemies broke up in the pursuit with the battleship following us all the way to the Trade Lanes and the Gaul ships engaging Zulu near Java Station. An independent Crayter fighter by the name "Shuttle." was in a neighboring system and rushed to Java Station to assist Zulu in the fight. After we shook off the battleship, we also returned to the dogfight and stood by in case additional firepower was needed.
Not long after another Gallic hero, Barbe.Epaisse popped up and dared to jump into the ongoing fight and so did we. Eventually one of the Enclave fighters went down and I also managed to land land some anti-matter in the Super Heavy's face which put them out of their misery. While the last fighter was kicking their last, the Maltese battleship returned, still looking for trouble.
Shuttle. broke off our wing as they were not outfitted for such target, but with the four of us, we engaged the battleship in confidence. The huge warship was clearly out of it's natural environment and struggled heavily in the dense asteroid field. We slowly but steadily wore down the beast and ended it's journey in the local star's corona.
On the way home I detached from the wing and paid a visit to carrier Helios' final resting place in Tau-29. I remember hearing about this colossal battle when I was still in the academy, I felt proud, filled with motivation and humbled at the same time. I entered my name on the memorial datapad and sit there for a minute in the silence surrounding the resting titan.

Today was fairly calm so I headed to the bar on Sabah Shipyard to see if there's anything posted on the mission board. There was a single level 25 mission regarding a large group of Lane Hackers that thought we are going to allow such blatant trespassing in our home system.
I headed out to their expected position and surely the report was right, I ran into five Hacker fighters. A firefight quickly ensued, but these guys must've hacked their way through flight school as they were going down like flies. Soon another squadron showed up as well as a friendly patrol wing. Needless to say it was basically target practice at this point and even the last group of ace pilots couldn't turn the tide.
The mission was a success, the Hackers will think twice before underestimating us again.

Last night near the end of my watch, I was patrolling Tau 23 between the 37 jump hole and the 31 gate when long range sensors picked up an Enclave VHF. I addressed the pilot via comms but he jumped a moment later to Tau 29. I changed ordered a course change aboard the Crayter Gunship Berserker and jumped through as well. I encountered the Enclave scum with id MdG Ruben-Leclere and ordered his departure from Crayter space. Leclere taunted and was clearly stalling. I checked deep scans and saw another MdG ship inbound from Bretonia, now in Tau 31 already.
I gave him a final warning and engaged. Leclere danced his fighter around incessantly, frantically avoiding my guns to stall for time. I launched missiles and downed his shields and he dove to avoid the laserfire now tracing his hull. Momentarily, his comrade arrived Samuel Deschamps and to my dismay was equipped in an Enclave bomber, torps and all. I made to disengage and sent out a distress call for reinforcements but my cruise engines were disrupted, and so I turned my guns on the foe.
It was a bitter fight. I attempted to take out the VHF first whilst disrupting the incoming torps from the bomber, and critically damaged him before he broke off and engaged nanobots for quick repairs while the bomber pressed on. His quick and continuous barrage was too much and my guns were unable to trace his movements fast enough and the Berserker was crippled.

Cruising through the Tau systems today, for the first time in quite a while, deep sensor revealed a Kusari naval vessel in Tau 29. I sent out an alert to nearby CR forces, to which I was immediately responded by Lt. Samantha Kandros, and went in pursuit. Travelling through the trade lanes of Tau 29, I didn't find the IKN ship until I arrived at the Samura base. Upon seeing it was a Battlecruiser, I sent a more urgent request for backup, checked Lt. Kandros' position, and addressed the naval vessel and ordered its immediate departure from Crayter Republic space.
To my amazement, IKN-kayoro.Cheng responded a greeting and agreed. I saw the cap then engage cruise engines and head for the trade lanes, which it entered heading for FP6. I followed at a distance.
It was at this point that Lt. Kandros in a Pytho met up with me and we waited at the Freeport.
IKN-kayoro.Cheng then docked at Freeport 6 and left.
I find this situation strange, perhaps High Command can shed some light?

Following the reports from the IMG personnel on Falkland, in addition to recent reports from our personnel operating near Java Station, we have picked up a strong Outcast signature mobilizing towards the southern Taus. While their intentions are currently unknown, an attack on Crayter or IMG holdings in the Taus cannot be ruled out. Carrier Group Hades is hereby ordered to remain on guard. Further operations in Tau-31 to counter the Kusari invasion will be put on hold until the risk is removed.
Any intelligence on Kusari and Outcast movements is to be reported to this channel. Military command in Tau-44 will continue to observe the environment of the region.
All Crayter personnel operating in the Tau systems should mobilize to base out of Tau-44 for the foreseeable future. All Military Captains and Command Staff should move to Minato Harbor at once to further coordinate. All warships in the Tau theatre will be operating under the command of Hades.
