Starting my patrol towards the borders of the Gas Miners Guilds space in Honshu, I encountered a distraught Gas Miner by the name of Yuki Kizo. He told of Outcasts lingering around Naha and causing trouble in Sigma-13, as the Guild seemed a little understaffed on security forces.
On direct call for assistance, a small fleet of Naval Forces ships launched to support the Gas Miners at Naha then. In detail, also joining were vessels Doragonfaito and Okina of the secondary forces. The Outcasts at Naha turned out to be a cruiser class vessel and a bomber. With our battleship support, they stood little chance and were dispatched of quickly. After some words thanking for the assistance of the Kusari Naval Forces, we returned to Kusari space. Sub-Lieutenant Otsuka san joined slightly too late and could not take part in the battle.
Joined by fellow Sub-Lieutenant Taiyouji san and Captain Takata san, the patrol then proceeded towards the Kyushu System and further into Tau-23, to assist our overburdened friends to actually bring a halt to the smuggling and slavery there. Meeting a wealth of Commonwealth Zoners and an undisclosed vessel, it turned out the be fairly quiet there, yet lively, for the moment.
Returning to Kyushu, we encountered the odd people of the so called GST again. There has been an unusual case of loitering around New Tokyo by one of their members prior to this, so we had a closer eye on them, and not in vain. They were in a convoy of two freighters, the [GST]-Reliant and one directly under [GST]~CEO~John~Burton, accompanied by their [GST]-Security-Dempsey. We escorted them, partially to see what they were up to this time.
Starting from Planet Kyushu, they surprisingly turned to head for the Hokkaido jump hole and promptly went in. Even more surprising, they then continued further to jump into Chugoku. Slightly hesitant, we followed them even there, to see if they are collaborating with the Blood Dragons, as can be seen here:
They left Chugoku towards Sigma-13 this time, but it seems highly suspicious for them to take that kind of route, and surprisingly, they were not attacked by a single Blood Dragon. Maybe further investigation of their organization seems adequate.
On a side note, I have to make a request for not giving malfunctioning ships to pilots, as this seems highly dangerous. Misfiring weapons could even create unforseen diplomatic incidents.
