We've all heard the word about the corsairs trying to increase their toe-hold in Omega 47, so command decided to shift the Von Rohe down to Vernheim so the corsairs knew what was what in the 47. Otto Baring and I flew escorts from Freital.
Well, what do you know? We ran in to a corsair cruiser as soon as we stepped inside Omega 47. The Von Rohe was bold and engaged right away, and we followed suit in our thors.
Well, that corsair ship was no match for Hessian technology.

Maybe they'll know who really runs the 47 now. We should up our own presence in the area in turn. Our superior numbers will be irrepressible.

Bastian.

Ein deal has been struck mit ein Bretonian Trade Captain, to ship blood diamonds in exchange fur our friendship. Die details are listed below:

I expect everyone to follow zis agreement, unless the shipper betrays us in some shape or form. If I see any rekruts hunting him fur some measly credits, you'll have to face ze Ostwind as punishment.

The said trader kept his end of the bargain. When I jumped into Tiger I was contacted by him requesting help in Omega-3 to get rid off of 2 hostiles. He explained to me that he had struck a deal with LWB. Or atleast that was the impression I got. I proceeded to Omega-3 and saw him hiding at Douglas. I was a bit surprised, but decided to help him out and find out if he was talking the truth.



I conducted a sector sweep for hostiles so that he could slip by and rendezvous me at Stuttgart. And to my bad Gluck I found 2 Corsair GBs lurking at the gate to Omega-7. I had no choice but to draw them away from it. I put up a stiff resistance and wounded the second GB almost making him panic. But it was not enough. I could not disengage due to CDing and I alerted the nearby patrol to pick me up when the ship would be lost.

The patrol dropped me to Ronneburg and I loaned a ship to go to rendezvous with the mystery man. He paid 20 mil as agreed which will nicely pay some of the cost for new Tiger. But I expect this to be profitable in the end. We have secured services for a trader willing to take our blood diamonds to market.

I'm really sorry to do this, but I can't be flying the RHA colours anymore, I've lost my family somewhere in Kusari, they've been taken for the blood dragons, until I find them, I won't come back. It has been an honour to fight with you, and I'm glad I've killed a few facists for our cause.
I'll see you eachother again.

See you.

I was running a patrol through Hamburg, and also confirming the location of the new Unioner mining facility, when I ran into scanner range of the RFP. Interestingly, he showed no interest in me, prefering instead to harass some trader bringing in goods from Liberty. Perhaps they are becomning fearful of our skill? I was able to travel unhindered for the majority of the system, following the lanes.

Then, up ahead, a mining vessel pops out of the lane and heads for the asteroid fields containing the jump hole to New Berlin. I was unable to knock out his engines, as I am not equipped with a cruise disruptor, and scans showed a number of Junker pilot held in his brig. Further scans showed him to be a Kruger vessel. As we continued on the same course, I decided to try a different tactic, and politely requested the release of the Junker pilots, as I was headed for Kreutzburg. He flatly refused, and as I caught him up in the asteroid fields, he turned his weapons on me and opened fire! He was helpless in the asteroids, and could barely train his guns to affect my shields, so he proved little more than target practice. It wasn't long before he fell, and I was able to rescue the Junker pilots and return them to Kreutzberg.

.

I deliberately left the captain of the vessel drifting in his survival pod. Hopefully his time alone in the void will have taught him a useful lesson, though I doubt it.

Hello chaps, Phipps here.

Still having issues with resolving the IFF, so taking shipment of the diamonds may take a short while. As soon as I can find a fixer who can adjust my Junker rep, I should then be able to swing by Stuttgart and not get shot at by the auto-defenses.

Keep a strudel warm for me. And custard. Custard is good.

Today i was patrolling in Omega 5 near Ronneburg. The base reported hostile signals on the radar 15 k away. I checked the co-ordinates and found a corsair VHF. After a short conversation the barbarian attacked me, but i destroyed him with my SNAC. I returned to Ronneburg to do the necessary maintains. After my ship was ready to set off i headed to Omega 47, but another corsair vessel popped up on my radar. He had 14 hessain pilots imprisoned, and he refused to hand them over. Meantime a friendly "thor" type bomber arrived to help (callsign bandit). After a short battle i destroyed the hostile gunboat and took the hessain pilots to Ronneburg.

Yesterday, Oberst Segur, Major Dwyn and myself were on patrol in New Berlin. We encountered a Police Mjolnir, who was trying to prevent us from completing our objective. We engaged him, the Oberst and I and the Major followed soon after. I was taking out his guns one by one, but the Oberst's Thor was destroyed.In the meantime, a RM pilot joined the battle. I kept pounding the Mjolnir even more furiously and when he lost the last gun the fascist decided to do a suicide attack. I thought of using that to my advantage and tried to place a mine next to his ship. Unfortunately, I was not able to escape the torpedo's blast radius and my Sabre was destroyed along with the enemy ship I was targeting. Main target being destroyed, the fight continued between the Major and the RM pilot. Unfortunately, the Military pilot managed to destroy Herr Dwyn's ship due to the fact it was damaged from the previous brawl. My ship's black box was damaged, so no data could be transferred to the escape pod.

Von Barring out!

Yet another fine day for the RHA! I set out into New Berlin yesterday, to hear the chatter of several pilots of the corrupt regime. Contacting Vogtland, I was able to get two other RHA pilots to come to my assistance. I ran into one policeman and one military pilot in between Bonn station and Dortmund, and they were busy attacking a Bowex smuggler trying to haul a load of counterfeit software. Both pilots were flying Mjolnirs. As the Bowex pilot did nothing to ask for my assistance, I stayed back from the fight, waiting for my comrades to arrive, scanning the police ships.

.

Just as the Bowex ship was being reduced to so much scrap, Storch and Herr Teutoburg arrived on the scene, and together we engaged the police pilots. The first police pilot quickly fell to my well timed SNAC volley.



They were soon joined by Sgt Anderz of the RSS, also in a Mjolnir, who immediatley engaged our small force.



The second policeman fell, again to my SNAC, before Sgt Anderz began to specifically target my ship. His loadout of heavy missile ordnance began to hammer into my hull, as shot after shot of mine grazed his paintwork. Eventually Storch was able to land the telling blow

.

A DHC escort ship also joined the fray at that point, soon followed by Jens Brandt, a military pilot, before we were reinforced by the arrival of Herr Neurath, Herr von Nokom and the Messerschmidt. It seems that Sgt Anderz fire had done some damage to my scanners and guncams as they failed to register the scan of the scan of the DHC vessel, and the destruction of the military pilot. The day belonged to us, and we finished of all remaining enemy vessels in short order.

. .

After our fine victory in New Berlin, we returned to Vogtlad to refit. We heard reports there was an RM presence in Omega-15, so we set off to teach them their share of the lesson. In the end, nine of us jumped to Omega-15.



We split up to search the system for the RM vessels. Unfortunately all we came across to begin with was a solitary RM recruit. Given the poor state of his ship and weapons, we took pity on him and allowed him to retreat to safety. No doubt we will get plenty of opportunity to destroy him in the future. There was no sign of the two RM battleships known to be in the system, they were obviously hiding from us, the cowards, but we did run into the BHG battlecruiser, Estal. He was in the vicinity of Bornholme, but as he was busy destroying Corsairs in the area, we decided to leave him to it. No point in stopping someone from killing our enemies.

We moved to the Nebula in the north of the system, but again it was clear. It wasn't until we were about to return to Dresden that the Estal reappeared on our scanners, demanding that we leave Omega-15. We were in no mood to comply, insisting instead that it should be him that leave, and demanded that he turn over the Corsair prisoners in his brig to us for interrogation. He refused continually, and on the appearance of the hunter battleship Dark-Blue, we engaged.

.

The fight was not short, but it was one sided, the hunter heavy weaponry no match for our manoeuverable Thors and Odins. It was not long before the Estal fell, allowing us to turn all our firepower on the unfortunate Dark-Blue.



Our combined and concentrated fire hammered into the shields and hull of the Dark-Blue continually, and before long a SNAC hit to his main engine core started a chain reaction resulting in the destruction of the vessel.

.

It was a glorious victory for our forces, and for the entire engagement, not a single RHA vessel fell. This will help to show our strength, not only to our enemies, but also to those who might be thinking of assisting us in our struggles.

Florian out.
