Subject: Battle Report
Ah, first battle report I've submitted in years. I'll get straight to the point. I, the Hieroglyph, and Commander Brian Scott went on a reconnaissance mission in Omicron Iota. The main point of interest was the Altair Research Complex. The Hieroglyph led us to the Alien Jump Gate in the northeastern part of the system, where Scott and I proceeded to jump, emerging near the Complex. The Hieroglyph remained at the Gate while we proceeded to examine the complex. While Scott kept the Nomads off my back, I managed to obtain these pictures:
If you look closely, the Complex appears to be primarily man-made while the defense platforms are of a Nomad design. However, it's unclear how a human expedition could ever have the time or the resources to build a station so deep in hostile space without detection. I would like to request a further investigation in the matter, especially since the Nomads have now taken over the base and are using it to build Nomad Battleships.
As we prepared to leave the system, the Hieroglyph was attacked by two Keepers, who had detected our presence. We returned to the the Alien Gate and engaged the two Keepers, who were flying an Assassin and a Bomber. Under the combined firepower of Scott and myself, the two disengaged from the Hieroglyph and went after us, giving the Hieroglyph time to flee. Once it was out of harms way, we made our way out of Iota and began calling for reinforcements. At this point, a massive fight erupted among us, the Keepers, the Wild, additional Order pilots, and the Corsairs, who rushed to our aid. In the confusion, I managed to take out one Nomad Assassin, shown here:
Shortly afterwards, I ordered a full retreat, since it was clear that Nomad reinforcements were coming in nonstop and that we would not be able to handle it. I was the first to escape, since I had been chased by three Nomad and Wild pilots. Shortly afterwards, Scott and two ships from the Secondary Fleet, the Kemosiri and Johanna Hardcastle, returned to Minor. The Corsairs valiantly continued fighting to cover our escape. I'm still not sure the outcome the battle between the Corsairs and the Nomad-Wild forces, but I noticed that once we escaped, a few Corsair ships were taken out by the Harbinger. I commend the Corsairs for their bravery since without them, we could not have escaped. I'm happy to report that the Order suffered zero casualties in the operation.
Sincerely,
Captain Eric McCormick

While patrolling Omicron Minor with the Firestorm, our sensors detected a vessel moving to Omicron 92. Since we didn't have any patrols scheduled to go there, I decided to investigate with the Seker as backup. After a short time searching I discovered an infected Kusari Destroyer. I stalled for time by conversing with the abomination while the Seker could get into position. Once we were ready, we launched our assault. I managed to land a few good hits, but unfortunately my Sekhmet was torn apart when I foolishly flew too close to the enemy craft. However, it will take a bit more than that to stop me.
Luckily, my escape pod was thrown far from the battle site, so I had some time to plan before the Destroyer came after me. I hailed our evac team and they promptly rescued my battered pod and returned to Toledo.
Upon the destruction of Firestorm, ThunderBay flew over and jumped into the fray. We opened fire, and we began fighting. The Destroyer was quick. It inflicted massive damage to the ThunderBay from our time of engagement up until our retreat from Tohuku.
Seker dissappeared after the T-Bay was hit with electronic failure. We reengaged, when a fighter tagged 113th| showee up and engaged Johanna Hardcastle. The Destroyer was too fast. I retreated the ThunderBay to Omicron 92. Johanna and I returned to Toledo.
T-Bay is layed up with repairs. I've asked Colonel Ellie Hunter, who my holographic avatar is modeled after, to move the Missing Ache back to Minor tomorrow.

Greetings.
Today, when I just launched from Isis I saw our pilot shooting nomad, I decided to help him, but nomad fleed. When he was on 10-9K destenation from us, he started to speack with us. As I understood, he was speaking about war and who started it. I asked him what they want from us, they told something like: leav. Ofcourse, its not impossible at all. I asked him, what they want else, but morph just told the same. Other pilots and me realized, that its great oportunitie, to stop war, if we could find compromise.
Pleas understand me rightly, I just wanted to discover it, but dont take any decision, althought, we didnt make anything, morph just was " crying" about, that we humans attacked first and other things like that. I told him, that war is caused by nomads, not by us.
So, in conclusion, nomads want us to leav, no other compromise they want to have at the moment. But they also dont want war.... just like us.
The problem is, I couldn't discover, they want to leav only us or humanity at all, and what they gona do if we gona leav. ( its diplomatic mowe, I more than understand, that we wont leav.) Ion storm striked many times, when we were able to fly, nomad managed to leav Minor.
And and another. Im was guarding Minor almost every time Im here. I want to ask you, to have place in soonest mission outside from Minor and our space, like we had before.
Freeport 1 has sustained damage. The,Ghost Eye is providing medical care, but we can't do much. SCRA units around FP1, as well as an ORI Fearless and miscellanious snubcraft, were shot down along with Dane Summers' Conference. Multiple mortar shots struck the Freeport. Ghost Eye is preparing to move civilians off the Freeport tiomorrow. Radiation fracked the engines.
Bretonian and Rheinland forces clashed somewhere in Omega 3. It was a slaughter.
Its hell.

...Opening Message...
Hello. Ensign Adam Carson reporting in.
This was my first day on duty as Order Primary Fleet agent, and i think i only have good news.
My fighter was too much damaged by accident that occured during training. Corporal Alan Strem and I decided to check out things in Omicron Lost.
While we were approaching Unknown planet, nothing happened. Suddenly, scanners detected some sort of signal.
When we came to far side of the planet, we saw an Order tagged Osiris floating in planet's orbit. After scanning we realised that it was abandoned.
After few moments, Corporal Strem and I agreed to send me on that ship to check situation. Everything was damaged inside, from engines to shields and power supply system.
I did a few checks in the engine room and realised that it is possible for that ship to make it to planet Toledo.
However, shields were one of biggest problems, and since power core was damaged, I decided to activate shields only in emergency situation.
After few more check, we were ready to go. We safetly managed to get ship back to planet Toledo, and after restocking, to Evora shipyard. There, we left the ship to Order top engineers to take care of it.

After that, i went to usual patrol in Omicron Delta system.
While approaching Freeport 11, my scanner detected Bounty Hunter ships. After few minutes we were in fight. 2 "Treshers" and 1 "Bullhead" attacked us.
I was told to hold them until "Oathkeeper" arrive, so I did what I was told. We haven't killed any of them, but we forced them to pull back and dock at nearest base.
After that, Fleet Admiral Julia Benford told us to return to Minor.

Greetings.
Yes, thats correct. We found Osiris class Battleship in Omicron Lost system, in the shadow of the planet.
I confirm, that ship was abandoned and damaged. Some subsystems were unworkable. Ensing Adam Garson managed to get onboard of Battleship.
Why not me.
We were using ship, where I was registrated like pilot. Ensing couldn't handle my bomber, cause may DNA samples was integrated in pilot-check system, and it wouldn't allowe any one other to control my ship. Same system on BS was damaged. Ensing Garson enshured me, that I can trust him this job, and he prowed his words. BS succesfully transferned to Evora shipjard.
Its posebely, that, this one BS was in Order fleet. Rogue battleship, seems to be used by Corsairs. Weapon systems was manufactured by corsairs and their ID. We found no Order equipment, like powercore, weapons and other stuff. Fortunatly, when this ship was running, it was "clear"
Here is some pictures from my ship.
Heh, Vizier Lead lead a transport filled with refugees to Minor. The Oathkeeper was the only ship available to move to the RV in Delta quickly, so we headed out. Uploading Guncams now.
1700 families were checked out by Isis and now should be integrating with those on Toledo.
---Omega 3 Status---
Virulian Enclave Forces are now assisting Freeport 1. The SCRA Argu Tsiolkovsky is there as well, and now the Aquilon SlowCat, captian by an old friend, Alice, has arrived there. Freeport One, in an event of a crisis, should be able to evacuate the little amount of people who remain and mount a defense if needed. The Ghost Eye is staying there to assist with injuries and diplomacy.
Becuase really, having a Cruiser, a Battlecruiser, and a Aquilon Carrier backed by fighters and bomers really keep the peace damn well.
Did I mention the Reaver's are around too?

<sirs ive moved my lets refer to it as essentially a spy ship,a zoner idd and iffed kusari explorer to freeport 1 ,i cant do much with her however i checked our fleet manifests,should you need another cruiser dispatched i found one currently with no command crew the OCV-Phoenix.Fire.
i know my rank currently does not permit me to captain large craft i have prior experience and with permission can try to find a crew and relive any order vessel there if needed,i can also try to move my fighter there but currently im on the station itself.
i vowed id never get back into the rhineland conflict but frankly this is making me regret resigning from the corps even more...the rhinelanders slaughtered innocent civilians here,and i want to help any way i can.
in reguards to possably breaking orders, sirs i took the liberty of heading out here more so under the training the preservers and subsequently wedjet has given me, my gut tells me there might be more to this then the news says so in intrest of intelegence i humbly ask that i can remain in thetre,if it poses a problem i can be on the next shuttle there in 2 weeks
awaiting orders and tasking assignment
