I want to bring to your attention an encounter that I had in Omicron Delta. I was flying the Hegemon that is assigned to Reincarnation Outpost, DTR-CCS>Sed. I mined Water twice in the Palau Ice Cloud and delivered it to Reincarnation without any issues. But the third time I wanted to accomplish this, I was approached by a Rheinland Gunboat. I've attached the logs of the encounter below.
I would like to request several patrols to be assigned to that area. Thank you!
[29.07.2024 08:17:08] DTR-CCS>Sed: Hmm... I wonder what that Rheinland reading on the scanner earlier was about...
[29.07.2024 08:17:23] BDM|U-33: Perceptive of you
[29.07.2024 08:17:27] DTR-CCS>Sed: Oh
[29.07.2024 08:17:29] DTR-CCS>Sed: Look at that
[29.07.2024 08:17:51] DTR-CCS>Sed: What interests do Rheinland has in deep Omicrons?
[29.07.2024 08:18:02] DTR-CCS>Sed: Are you interested in some nice Water from the Tokelau cloud?
[29.07.2024 08:18:08] BDM|U-33: Not so deep, it would seem
[29.07.2024 08:18:35] DTR-CCS>Sed: I'd say you're pretty far away from home, aren't you?
[29.07.2024 08:18:41] BDM|U-33: Anything that enriches the Corsairs is a point of concern
[29.07.2024 08:18:49] DTR-CCS>Sed: Is RHeinland so peacefull that it can send warships away?
[29.07.2024 08:18:55] DTR-CCS>Sed: *laughs*
[29.07.2024 08:19:05] DTR-CCS>Sed: And Water is your concern?
[29.07.2024 08:19:18] BDM|U-33: Not as much as who it might be going to
[29.07.2024 08:19:30] DTR-CCS>Sed: I see, I see
[29.07.2024 08:19:56] DTR-CCS>Sed: Here am I thinking that Bunduch or whatever they are called, along with Red Hessians are more of a problem for Rheinland
[29.07.2024 08:20:03] DTR-CCS>Sed: Then a Corsair mining Water in Omicron Delta
[29.07.2024 08:20:08] DTR-CCS>Sed: I guess I might be wrong
[29.07.2024 08:20:09] BDM|U-33: We're not savages here, empty your cargo and leave this space - we can avoid unnecessary violence.
[29.07.2024 08:20:27] DTR-CCS>Sed: Well, I am really not looking for a fight
[29.07.2024 08:20:31] DTR-CCS>Sed: Not in this vesel at least
[29.07.2024 08:20:35] DTR-CCS>Sed: So have it your way
[29.07.2024 08:21:00] BDM|U-33: I'm glad you see it that way
[29.07.2024 08:21:15] DTR-CCS>Sed: Rheinland Military here... We should really lay off Hessians apparently, if you have so much time on your hand...

Honorable Conclave,
I want to present the battle report of our recent entanglement between our Imperium fleet and the Bretonian Armed Forces.
One of our patrol vessels spotted a Bretonian military fleet doing training exercises near omega-5 Jump hole in Cambridge system. Since our trade route lies in that area we were obliged to take action against such preposterous act. After Verification of their exact location, our battle fleet under the glorious command of Santa Trinidad was deployed to move into action. our Fleet proceeded from planet Crete and jumped into enemy home system using our latest Jump drives equipped ships and soon after making the jump we were in contact with the corrupted officials of Bretonian Armed Forces.
Our Battle Started with us having the upper hand where our glorious ships were able to take down enemy snub crafts and few capital Vessels but about an hour into the Battle we were overrun by the new Armed forces personnel coming from their nearby military bases. Although we managed to shake up their vessels to a certain extent the losses on our sides were not ignorable either. Beside our Capital Class ship CNS>SantaTrinidad all our remaining snubcrafts and capital ships were outnumbered and later on Martyred to the armed forces. However the losses were minimized to collateral only since all the pilots and their Life pods were successfully recovered due to the bravery of Commander of SantaTrinidad.
In spite our losses we have successfully shaken up the Bretonian Military might and hopefully created a successful smuggle route for time being.. Just to be sure, I request the conclave to authorize the use of Escort vessels while making smuggle runs through the Bretonian Houses.
I am contacting you to report the successful completion of a Xeno Relic mining operation for Reincarnation Outpost as posted on the Mission Board. In my freighter, the El_Cavator, I was able to extract almost 2000 Xeno Relics from the surface of Planet Knossos in Omicron Pi and return them safely to Reincarnation Outpost located in the Omicron Delta system. Importantly, no hostile contacts were spotted during the mission showing that our established patrol routes are effective in keeping our enemies away.
Based on the increased demand for the Xeno Relics these days, I recommend to organize more and larger mining operations in the near future. Surely, we will find a purchaser for this commodity and continue to fill the gold chambers of the imperio. I will remain stationed at Reincarnation Outpost for now awaiting further mining operations.
Please find below the documentation of the operation and the proofs for the delivery of the Xeno Relics.
I am writing to report on the battle between our fleet and the Rheinland Military in the Sigma-15 system. Few days ago our patrols from Petra Base in that system have spotted the arrival of a large number of Rheinland vessels including multiple large capital vessels close to Planet Hammersee. Naturally, we had to interfere with this gathering and prepared an assault from which I just returned. In a large operation starting from Freeport 9 in Omicron Theta, we jumped directly to the Sigma-15 system thanks to the highly advanced jump drive technology installed on our flag ship the CNS>Santa-Trinidad. The CNS>Santa-Trinidad was joined by various fighter and bomber squadrons, cruisers, battleships and even three other Legate class dreadnaughts. I have to admit it was a truly impressive sight to see all these ships together! I was part of it myself in the battlecruiser CNS>Olympos with the recently constructed Novaspear weapon mounted for testing in battle.
After the successful jump to the target system, we quickly encountered the enemy fleet thanks to the excellent reports by our scouts. At the start of the battle both sides remained at some distance until we were able to separate one of their Bismarck class battleships from the rest of the fleet leading to the immediate destruction of their vessel. In the following battle our fleet maintained the upper hand at all times and was able to eliminate the vast majority of the remaining Rheinland fleet without considerable losses.
In the last minutes of the skirmish, I spotted a Rheinland cruiser, the KKS-Luebeck, that tried to escape justice and flee. However, I was able to disrupt his attempt, track him down eventually resulting in the destruction of the Rheinland cruiser. Our victorious fleet has returned to Omicron Gamma for repairs and to prepare for future glorious operations. With our great victory we have launched a blow at the Rheinland Military operations and further secured our establishment in Sigma-15.
I want to point out that the Novaspear has proven to be a highly effective weapon system, and it is therefore strongly recommended to be mounted also on other Tribunus class vessels of our fleet.
Below I have attached images from our victorious battle as well as the destruction of the KKS-Luebeck.
I have just returned from our latest large-scale Earhart expedition and am thrilled to report that we have delivered more than 6,000 units of chirodebris to Ravenna Invicta for refinement into chiromaterials that will be shipped at later times to Deterrence Sanctum, where it is needed for continuing our CODENAME weapon production on-site. In addition, further exploration of, until now, uncharted systems have allowed us to collect additionally more than 350 units of cryo-organisms and more than 500 units of organic capacitors, which were delivered directly to Deterrence Sanctum and will be certainly of good use for our weaponry production should they pass our quality control tests.
Please allow me to elaborate a bit on our expedition details. We embarked from Planet Crete to the Earhart system using our most advanced Jump Drive technology as two distinct squadrons; the squadron Alpha led by Chief Logistics Officer Nicolás Diego himself in his Type I Barge, while the second squadron Theta was under my command. The Alpha team began the extraction of chirodebris near the wreck of the IKN-Yamafaku Maru quickly filling up the cargo hold of the Barge.
Meanwhile, my Theta team consisting of three Correo class freighters, went on to explore the system we called Uncharted-3 reachable through an unstable jump hole. We could locate a nearby ice cloud from which we were able to extract cryo-organisms and transferred to one of our transports awaiting our return in the Earhart system. After all ships were filled with the precious materials, we identified a way back home through a one-way jump hole to the Omicron Kappa system allowing us a fast and uninterrupted return.
Given the success of this initial mining operation, we decided to go back immediately to extract more chirodebris and to explore the second uncharted system we encountered. Again, the Alpha team could load the Barge with chirodebris also thanks to the support by one Order mining vessel belonging to the Eclipse Vanguard faction. The Theta team entered the second uncharted system, we called it Uncharted 10, in which we found a large complex of energy generators, most definitely of Nomad origin. One of the structures appeared to be damaged allowing us to retrieve organic capacitors from its surroundings. We were able to fill a large transport vessel with these alien materials and returned once again back to Omicron Gamma together with the Alpha team.
The obtained materials will be of great value for our weapon production on Deterrence Sanctum to further strengthen the war fleet of our Imperio!
Please find below the detailed documentation of our operation and the delivery protocols for the acquired materials.

Saludos,
My fellow commanders of the imperial flotas from here I congratulate you from Crete since our conquests are vast, and the empire is florishing, we are the swords and shields of the Imperio Corsario.
After a month of constant fight against the pesky mollys, those who did not fell under our mighty guns, ran hopelessly under our strong banners appearing in Dublin. The station, fort Torre la Vega, built by our great "equipo de ingenieros" stays strong and the constant flow of gold to Crete made us richer than before. We do have a duty, and is to defend our conquered grounds and eradicate those mortal enemies of us all. The enemigos of the Imperio are strong, but we will prevail, Crete will rise with the power of our sacrifices, duty and honor hermanos!
After a debate with el señor Nicolas Diego, head director of the logistical team, I made the decision to put el señor Segismundo Cornelius in charge of the station, Torre la Vega. He contributed togheter with the ingenieros with the first stages of the station and knows every corner of that station. Wish him all the luck in the world.
Our blood belongs to Crete, hermanos, never forget it.
Buenos dias.

I saw on the local mission board at Ravenna Invicta that we needed of additional supplies of scrap metal and toxic waste to keep our installations running. Together with the XTM-Mining-Co. I collected almost 20,000 units of scrap metal and 9,964 units of toxic waste for recycling at the base. Hopefully this stuff can be turned into something useful soon!
Please find below the documentation of the mission.
I report with great joy that Project Aegean Dagger has been concluded now that the weapons have been installed, the Hels are now ready for service, and await their captains and crews. Kolossi, Kyrenia, and Kantara have been successfully improved and modernized, and should fit smoothly into our fleet as proud new warships. As for my 2 compatriots, Dr. Bautista and Colonel Razzario, they performed excellently on this project, and I will recommend their inclusion in future engineering projects of this type. Both made important contributions and managed their tasks efficiently when it came to this project.
Thus concludes my involvement with these ships, I eagerly await my next assignment.
May our Empire's ingenuity and creative genius never be lost to us! Sgt. Alfonso Cornelius
I have just dropped off 60 units of Cryo-Organisms from the system ‘Uncharted 5’ that were required to complete a special weapon construction on Deterrence Sanctum. After a quick stop at the excellent bar here on the station, I will head towards Reincarnation Outpost in Omicron Delta. I heard they need a hand over there to excavate more Xeno Relics.
Below I attached the proofs for the delivery of the Cryo-organisms.
