Konnichiwa fellow companions of the Association. Some works on behalf of the Association have been performed these past weeks.
On the 18th of this month I took my longtime partner Kani-maru to assist in some supply runs to the Samura lads in the remote Nagano. As I was ending that service, I got a call from some boys of the Unione Corse that there were Outcasts in the Tau systems close to Kusari borders. That isn't particularly new, given that they still hold their hideout in the sector, but I departed from the Samura, and went to assist them.
What I found was an Outcast Gunship, |+|-BlackBird , flanked by some lowlifes, facing a group of Unione Corse. The Corse wanted to handle the Outcast easily, but the other criminals decided to butt in without ceremony. I entered the fray on the side of the Corse, who faced an extra bomber, and another gunboat. The engagement didn't go so well, we lost one of the Corse gunboats first, and we followed with the downing of the pirate gunboat. My Raba was put out of action, and the remaining Corse managed to finish the Outcast and scare off the bomber.
Just goes to show that the Raba can do wonders, but it's not best match against the offensive oriented gunboats.

More recently I took flight to New Berlin, taking with me a load of one of Samura'sPlatinum Ore containers from Itabashi. Arrived at New Berlin safely and without much to talk about. The cargo sold well.
I choose the best Rheinbeer I could get at the marketplace, and headed to Planet Holstein, in the Frankfurt System. I delivered the Rehinbeer to some of our contacts in the local stores, and turned the ship to the Bodensee Outpost, ran by the ALG.
I picked up a large supply of Premium Scrap, as the young men from Samura told me they were giving out some new prices for the selected sort to be Delivered at Yokohama. I'm sure Ijima won't mind I took some of the ALG stock to our guys at Yokohama instead of the Corsairs, but he will have plenty of the Scrap to keep himself busy ferrying cargo to and from Crete and Tripoli.

Later on, I've met with [HA]-$|Lady.Black , and we visited this small depot in the Tau-29 system. It had a small supply of Raw Hydrocarbons bought from the nearby Kishiro or Samura operations, and some Gallic wine. I stocked up the rest with Samura HydroGro, and went on to Liberty to make a profit with them, while Lady Black remained in Kusari.
In the return I brought some Industrial Materials from Trenton, to be used in Planet Junyo Development by Samura. This reminds me that I have to contact them about how is that progressing. I hope they aren't just building skyscrapers in the new reclaimed land zones.
That is all from me, tune in sometime soon. *he raises a cup of tea*
May the Fortunes secure your path to greatness.
