Kon'nichiwa. Igarashi-Junsa reporting patrol in New Tokyo system on 824-03-29.
I departed from Planet New Tokyo and followed the trade lane network log to track any potential smugglers or hostile ships.
First encounter was with an Atlas-class transport, identified as Bretonia Armed Forces vessel, callsign HMS Morgan. It was carrying sealed military containers which, according to scanner readings, were restricted to Rheinland military transports. The stated destination was Battleship Nagumo.
Although it was clear violation of protocols, I assumed that it should be resolved between Rheinland and Bretonia military in the first place. My priority was to deliver the cargo, so I decided to escort it to Nagumo let the transport unload first, then impose a fine on the vessel.
However, in the trade lane between planet New Tokyo and Shinjuku station we encountered a Farmers Alliance fighter piloted by suspect identified as Asaita Ikudo. He disrupted the lane, but didn't attack us first, so I ordered HMS Morgan to proceed and followed to cover its rear. He also pretended to be informed about things he wasn't supposed to know, like agreements between military forces of Rheinland and Kusari.
The Farmer followed us to planed Kyushu. After HMS Morgan docked, I engaged the Farmer and in intense combat destroyed his vessel by means of nuke mine. However, by the time it was over, the BAF transport either left or docked to planet Kyushu. I suggest to issue a fine on that vessel and send it to BAF to handle it. We might also need to inform Rheinland military about the violation.
After the fight with Asaita Ikudo, I returned to Planet New Tokyo where I spotted Kusary Naval Forces ship Thunderpaw. It was carrying Industrial Materials at that point and headed to Hokkaido system to load a cargo of Military Materials from battleship Matsumoto. I provided an escort to the transport to Hokkaido and back up to Ames station.
I stayed on Ames to refuel and then returned to New Tokyo to repair damage done by the Alliance fighter.
I'm attaching a full transcript of the encounter with HMS Morgan and suspect Asaita Ikudo.
