Let me say I'm very honored to send you my first report, humble as it is.
Combat alarm woke me up in my cockpit, being a part of the standby paramilitar wing at battleship Daishouri, Sigma-21 system. My ship was immediately switched to Sigma-13 fleet, in order to coordinate with other warships. I was already on a half way to Sigma-17, when I received jump-hole locations and auto-route vectors. It took me 8 minutes and 55 seconds to reach Frankfurt system, as I had to dock to Helgoland "for refueling" and there was some Corsair depot I was ordered to not pass close. Sorry about that Mr. Namura-San. I was raised at Miura never-ending winter and we have "to refuel" more often than other people.
I received orders on my arrival to Frankfurt, short and clear:

GMG|Min-Seo.Park: Who do we shoot, mighty Guildmaster?
GMG|Keiji*Namura: Engage the Rheinland ships.
GMG|Keiji*Namura: Be sure not to die.
Enemy gunboat KF|RNC-Bhietigheim had me on their aim very next second and I regretted giving out my position immediately. Two of our best pilots were assigned to keep them busy, so I managed to focus my fire to our real target: battlecruiser RNC-Abenberg. They were deshielded by two loads of my mighty Neutraliser bombs, powered by GMG gas. Therefore we all focused to their hull and obviously my Scatters did a lot of damage, with plasma of pure GMG origin. And soon Abenberg was no more.
Battle-changing ship was our gunboat, that took care of enemy triggerhappy gunboat and was smartly keeping Abenberg's shields down from safe distance.
