Bonjour, this is the after-report of Pierre Lachance.
When I launched I was called to aid local forces in the removal of two Sirian "Freelancers", after one suffered a severe Ion Storm the second one surrendered after a brief firefight and was escorted out of Royal Space.
Afterwords there was a minor incident near Dijon Station, a Junker Frigate apparently gained access to Gallic Royal Naval armaments and outfitted them onto his gunboat, the frigate docked on Dijon and afterwords I signed off of duty.

In addition to Capitaine Valences report:
I was also present, with my brand new Perilious class gunboat the RNS-Vauquelin straight out of the docks of Dijon. Right after I undocked, I went to Capitain Giroux' position to assist. He already jumped to Lorraine when I arrived. He stopped another Kiitolinja ship, /707. After some weak excuses, refusal to leave, and an attempt to bribe us, I thought it was time to test the capability of my new ship.
Some council forces came in to defend the trader, but that didn't prevent me from destroying the vessel.

Today I commenced a small sweep of the Dauphine system. A simple patrol, and no major events occured. However, I spotted a group of unidentified ships on the long range scanners. I was unable to get close enough for a proper reading, but they were displaying an unknown tag. {JaG}
As soon as I attempted to locate their exact positions, I lost them, unfortunately.

Bonjour,
Todays and yesterdays patrol, were made in the Systems of Dauphine and Burgundy. I made sure to remove every possible treat I saw, which were fortunately not many, just a few Brigand vessels. Other then that both patrols were uneventful.

Right after lunch, at 12.00SMT, I took the Vauquelin out for a patrol. A quick sweep of the lanes showed that everything was quiet, like it should be. But, when I set course for the Lorraine jump hole, I came across something worrying. A Sirian trader by the name of VZD, hauling our Cryocubes. I immediately ordered him to stop, but he refused to comply. By that time, a council patrol showed up, which prevented me from pursuing the Sirian. Once I got rid of the patrol, I went to the RNS Beuvray, trying to find VZD. I was lucky, because after 5 minutes, he showed up on scanners again. I ordered him to stop and drop the cargo again, but he refused any cooperation. Even after disrupting his cruise, he tried to get away. He left me no choice but to destroy his vessel
Once that was done, I returned to the RNS Beuvray for a crew evaluation.
10 minutes later I met 2 recruits of the new Troisième Defence Fleet. They were busy setting up their ships. Gallia was clear, so I decided to help them out. They appeared to be very capable pilots, with a respectful attitude towards superiors and to each other. I think they can prove to be worthy assistance when the Primary fleet needs help. They can be recognized by the tag: |3eme
Shortly after we were done, the communication officer of the RNS Embrun contacted me. They spotted 2 sirian ships in range, but they were unsure what to do. I went for Dauphine to assist. Once I arrived, a surprise was waiting for me. 2 Sirian vessels, one with the name gamma-kvant, and VZD2 (see the resemblance?) It seemed that the captain of VZD was aboard this vessel, because he accused me of pirating and killing him. He seemed quite lively for a dead man, and pirating... *sighs*. I decided to deal with the sirian trader gamma-kvant first, but as soon as I started talking to him, he docked with the RNS Embrun.
I suggest we change our stands to hostile to both vessels ("[color=#FFFFFF]VZD", "VZD2" and "gamma-kvant"), to prevent such mix ups in the future.
The trader never undocked, so I proceeded to deal with VZD2. It was a sirian explorer vessel as we've seen before, but this time armed with several council weapons. Of course this was unacceptable, so I ordered him once again to leave Gallia, but the only thing he did was continue to accuse me of crimes I never committed. I arranged a date with Madame Guillotine for him.

Bonjour,
On todays patrol Kelly Levacher of the third Royal Navy wing flew with me. We encountered one of those Legion traitors, which was executed by Levacher after a short fight.
Other then that only the usual attacks of smaller criminal forces has to be reported, all treats were removed and the citizens should be able to sleep safe once more.

->Warning: The following report has a delay of ...18 hours <- Bonjour,
The situation in Gallia is getting more and more bizarre. Mercenaries coming from everywhere, Sirian ships stealing Cryocubes cargo, and now a Sirian battleship which showed up in Burgundy and set course to the Beaune's orbit. And it kept flying towards it...
I think Capitaine Picard and Brigadier Bernard couldn't find an explanation for this, and I'm still wondering if the next thing we'll get will be large fleets of Sirian ships colliding into our planets. Whatever, our Borders are still safe. Giroux out.

Bonjour,
I was called to assist in a fight near the Beuvray, the individual known as 'Le Jokeur' and his scums.
Together with a small attack force we prepared their execution.
While we fought them more and more of those criminals arrived, so I allowed the Valor to open fire the result was like I expected, the Gunboats were put out of action.
Once the hostile gunboats were destroyed, the Valor was ordered to hold its fire in order to make the operation safer for the smaller vessels.
Once the hostile fleet was destroyed, the last one remaining was given the chance to flee in order to spread the knowledge about this, our great victory.
We were able to destroy six hostile vessels, but did not loose a single one of our own. A few of our ships were took moderate damage, but nothing serious.

Bonjour,
While performing my duty in the Burgundy System i observed a unidentified pilot using foul language against one of the GRP members. Having approached the site of the incident i quickly discovered that the pilot was a Council member. I ordered the council man to kill his engines and prepare to be boarded. He refused and was attacked by me and the GRP member. We where aided in destroying this traitor by the AI fleet and arriving just in the neck of time by RNS Vauquelin. The fighting was brief and death came too fast for the Council pilot

--------------------
We shall inherit the purity of destruction! So it is written in the Book of Rage!
It seems that yet again the Sirians have sent forces to attempt to breech our lines. This time, it was a group whose callsigns red "Order". Whether this group has been sent by the Sirian Governments, or come of their own accord, they seem to be better armed and equipped than most other Sirians we have encountered.
However, their Sirian equipment has still proved to be inferior to ours, as we demonstrated today.
This time however, they brought not just Fighters and scouting craft, but a capital ship of some sort. I would assume the Kings intelligence officers would be able to decipher more from the information we have gathered than I ever could, so I present the scans I took from my ship, as well as an image of the Sirian ship meeting its fate at our hands. It would also appear that these Sirians may have come with the intentions of striking at less well defended targets within Gallia, as they were most definitely hostile, and had captures some of our pilots.
[color=#FFFFFF]The Sirian ship was also assisted by rebels of the Council, as well as the Maquis terrorists, and even Brigands. Perhaps they have formed relations with the Sirian houses in desperation? Or perhaps they are looking for someone to fight their loosing war.
However, the rebels were disorganised and chaotic in the face of our soldiers, and those of the Gendarmerie, as one would expect, and they scattered and fled when battle was joined. The Sirians also fled the scene once their capital ship was destroyed, no doubt as a result of the loss of their commander, or the sight of their impending defeat.
However, it is clear that no matter what forces the rebels attempt to array against us, they are still unable to defeat us. We lost not a single ship in the battle.
