So, here we are again. A few things happened.
On the 29th of December, I found a Blood Dragon wandering around the lanes of Honshu. I engaged the BDS-Busan gunboat, and after a prolonged fight with the help of a Kruger| security vessel, the gunboat was destroyed.
I thanked the Kruger for the assistance on keeping Kusari a safe territory, and I received a nice prize from Samura for the effort.
A large ALG and IMG convoy passed a few minutes later, but nothing out of the ordinary.
------------------
On the first of January, I attempted to head out into the Taus, to check what affairs were happening on the edges of our good land. I found a whole lot of trouble around the IMG Java Station. A group of 3 Outcast Destroyers and one pirate gunboat where harassing the miners. I offered to help with the problems, but the Outcast numbers were overpowering the defenders and the emplacements, and I was shot down by the fire of the Outcast. The miners told me that at least one of the Destroyers was shot down, but I haven't heard of the rest of the outcome.
---------------
Samura hired our services to escort a large shipment to Rheinland. The service took a few days to be completed due to logistical issues, but we performed successfully without any engagements, and received a large paycheck for the babysitting.
--------------------
Last one happened yesterday. As I returned from Hokkaido on our gunboat after chasing out a GMG rascal from the Samura turf, I met this unpleasant acquaintance from {AFC] , {AFC]-Turbo.Charged[P], which I had met on Colorado. Apparently he was a nuisance looking for a quick buck on Liberty, but for him to show up on Yokohama for the very same reason to "get bounties" means these rascals are really wanting to piss off our business.
I fought him for a while on the Yokohama sector. A second vessel, called identification-none (A correo with a the markings of a pirate, and a cloaking device) came by, and decided to join the fun on his side.
The battle was difficult, but I managed to maintain a balance against my enemies, until a Naval Forces Battleship KDS-Haruo appeared from the Yokohama Shipyard, and the pirates immediately retreated.
I thanked the Naval Forces for the assist, and headed back to base.
I believe we should put a bounty on this pilot from the {AFC]. If he's targeting me or the Hogosha as a whole, he shouldn't be allowed to wander around carefree. We will make him live always looking over his shoulder every time he leaves Liberty.
That is all for this month. Hiraku Shimoe signing off."
