We left the Okinawa system after hearing of a Zoner base that was running critically low on Plutonium. After the station I was on relayed the message to me, We loaded up on Plutonium and headed out on the dangerous journey into the Omegas. We ran into multiple Red Hessians and many zoners. Overall, our journey was a long one into the Omegas but we made it safely to Omega 49 and then received a warm welcome to their system. The journey back was also a nice one, we carried deuterium back to Okinawa to ensure the stability of the stations in our newest system.

Re: Return Home

Well where do I begin we were on a standard run to deliver H-fuel to Omega-49 and cruising in Omega-41. According to my log a good portion of the flight was uneventful in the border systems. Then during the jump between Omicron-41 and Omega-47 something terrible went wrong.

Midway while traversing the jump hole we felt a resonating pulse through Mikuma's hull. Immediately afterwards we transitioned to normal space, except we were not in Omega-47. After a day of realigning our sensor sensitivities our Nav computer estimated our position. We were 2.6 billion kips from 47's star. Lucky for us are hold was full of H-fuel. So I immediately ordered stores locked and ration schedules implemented. We mounted Kako's Eagle to our lower hull and brought him aboard, no need for escorts in deep desolate space. We set Mikuma headed toward the nearest star, in Omega-47. During the voyage we investigated our misfortune and found an exterior hull panel was missing and a damaged exposed energy conduit. Most likely radiation damage from Omega-41 system. My engineer believes that a energy discharge while in a jump hole will resonate the worm hole wall and cause added stress tensors. The effect is a momentary rip in the worm hole wall there Mikuma was shoved through given the diolation encapsulating our ship. Well I am just a pilot by nature so who am I to disagree.

After 88 days in cruise we arrived at Casablanca... I never thought I would be so happy to see a Hessian. I am glad to announce that Mikuma is at Ogashawa accepting repairs and crew leave. I would like to recommend awards of valor to my crew and Kako Shimakaze for their diligence and shear bravery to see Mikuma home safely. Mikuma and her crew will be ready for assignments within the week.

Konichiwa fellow Guild members,

I have great news: Exploration unit Shantar-Maru has returned from Gallia today. Our technicians are at this very moment retrieving a vast amount of information from the ships data banks. There is much indeed. Our top clerks will be pouring over this for some time so it'll be awhile before they will all become available in the Archives so please be patient. I can say this, though, Shantar's sensors have picked up a lot of action in there. A war seems to be raging which, incidently, actually made the Shantar's explorations easier. The crew showed the boldness of the true GMG frontiersmen of old and have chosen to directly approach bases of the gaijin who call themselves Gallic. The Royalty and it's Navy are hostile and the Shantar was chased off by them where ever they were seen but another powerful group called The Council seems more approachable. Sadly their ships use a different fuel than ours, something called Oil. Seems like the Shantar got plenty involving technology in that area of space. This will all be checked by GMG's R&D team on Sakhalin.
I laughed when the crew said that they took a different way back, a route that put them through the Outcast's Alpha system. Such boldness may be going too far but I am glad they are back in one piece. On that note I am informed that they met an AFA, Crop Duster they believe, in New Tokyo after just coming in from Kyushu. I'm informed that the fiends aboard the AFA ship demanded the Synth Paste away from the Shantar. The crew were lucky that it was the last leg of their return trip or they would not have survived without the food. Well our memories are long indeed. This was followed by a Corsair that rode in the Shantar's engines wash all the way into GMG space. The crew promptly opened fire on the Corsair but eventually it knew it was going to be defeated and broke away.
Well I hope this got you curiosity. The Gallia Report will be underway.

Sayonara,
Guild Master Raikoke

Message reads:

Konichiwa all,

I wish to announce that the fate of the Namura (formerly RNC-Blitzkrieg) is finally known. A small epxedition force stumbled upon recently in Omicron-85. No wonder it took so long to find the wreck and now we know why it is a wreck. Outcasts. Apprarently the commander of the Namura flew right into a heavily guarded and controlled system by the most experienced pilots the Outcasts have in their fleets.......and we provoked them yet again. The Shantar shows that just as they completed the scans Outcast of the highest order came out chasing them. Be sure GMG that we will expect a responce from them.
Data concerning Namura is being put into the databanks for study on what can be done to improve on it for the next ship. Here is a picture of the Namura:

We will be discussing what our responce will be due to this new revelation but we mustn't be too hasty. We haven't feared any group in Sirius but for some reason we are having difficulty with their pilots. That damn Cardamine "boosts" them somehow.

Until more comes,
Guild Master Raikoke

Konnichiwa brothers and sisters!

It would seem like the Outcasts didn't appreciate our little expedition into Omicron-85. Long range scanners indicated an Outcast strike force in pursuit of our expeditionary forces as they were returning back to friendly space. The expedition made it safely back to Sigma-59, and their pursuers must have been reluctant to follow through the jump hole. Surely they were smarter than trying to fight us in our own turf... Or so we thought.

The Outcast gunship No.Remorse and the accompanying bomber strike craft Kitty.Justice[101st] showed up on our short range scanners. As we closed in on them, the bomber tried to break off heading towards the Sigma-19 jump hole, with Guild Master Okazaki and Corporal Suma hot on its tail. Myself, Corporal Shindo and Ensign Hatsumi engaged the gunship, bogging it down. Shindo in his agile Karasu Heavy Fighter drew the gunships fire, allowing me and Hatsumi to carefully aim our antimatter cannons, inflicting horrific hull damage. It wasn't long until the Gunship exploded, allowing us to help the others catch the running bomber.

<action camera>

The bomber managed fly straight through our defence grid, and jumped into Sigma-19. Okazaki, Suma and Shindo, all piloting the Karasu Fighter, caught the bomber on the other side and quickly turned it into a flying fireball.



Believing that all of our enemies had been vanquished, we went on our separate ways. I was just about to drink a cup of sake at the Sakhalin bar, when I received an urgent message from Guild Master Okazaki. He was near Ogashawa and had encountered a pair of Sabres! [RoS]Schiff.Toha[X] and Felix.Rommer[101st]. I quickly jumped back into my Kaichou and made haste to aid Okazaki-sama.

Once I arrived at Ogashawa, I saw Okazaki-sama ferociously fighting off the pair of Sabres. I rushed to his side, evening the odds. The skirmish raged on, until Hatsumi arrived to the scene of battle, tilting the odds in our favour. After several shots, I managed to hit one of the Sabres with my antimatter cannon while its shields were down. Tilting the odds further in our favour, it was now a three against one.

Hatsumi-san must have been reckless, as one of the Sabre's mines found its mark, forcing Hatsumi to eject his escape pod while the mine tear up his ship. Not only that, but now another Sabre and an Werewolf joined the battle. Airwi. and [RA]Vergere'sShadow. In one swift stroke, the enemy shifted the balance in their favour. It was now me and Okazaki-sama against three dangerous and skilled Outcasts.

The battle intensified, as I was now myself targeted by missiles and other ordinance. It was hard just keeping the Sabres off my back, as they were much more agile than my Kaichou. Luckily for us, Shindo-san arrived, evening the odds yet again!

Then it happened. I swear that it was the Pineal Amulet, a Zoner gift, that guided my hands. I fired my antimatter cannon once, hitting my intended target! One of the Sabres had been hit, leaving little evidence of its existence. Merely a minute after that, I fired my antimatter cannon yet again, scoring a hit on the Werewolf! Surely this must have been the work of something higher than me!

Ensign Hayate now joined us, and helped us finish off the last Sabre. Shindo-san scored that kill, with much grace.

Sadly we couldn't find any of the Outcasts escape pods to bring in for interrogation, however Hatsumi-sans pod was found, him being alive and well.

I'm sure the following Outcasts will think twice before ever fighting us again:

Yesterday, after we finished one more run to supply our allies with much needed Plutonium at Omega 49, the long range scanners showed QCP activity in Kusari; more serious then that was the fact that the GMG-GST Raikoke was alone in New Tokyo and not answering the comms.

We feared the worst so we assembled a quick intervention force with the Ronin|Tannakai-Maru, Ronin!Ikari-no-Ken, both kusari gunboats, Ronin|Mirumoto Rosanjin and Ronin|Kairu Tsubasa, these in Kaichu bombers, and we quickly were on our way to New Tokyo.

We had barely got out of the jump gate into New Tokyo system when we saw the Privateers. Two Challenger class bombers and one gunboat, long range scanners showed a fourth vessel was inbound from the Taus systems.

The QCP proceeded to insult, while we were mainly interested in tagging their whereabouts for the sake of the Raikoke. So we made our famous sphinx impersonation.

Finnally they made their move and engaged us.

After a while we had the two bombers down but had lost our two kaichu also. The ratio of forces was at the time unfavourable to the privateers, since both AFA - Food for Tought and an Hogosha vessel had joined the festivities.

Me and Ken proceeded to hammer the remaining gunboats and, to our chagrin, they both managed to evade our efforts and fled. One of them already badly damaged as those bretonian vessels are no match for the agile kusarian gunship which was impossible to shake off his tail.

There was a tense moment when the hog tried to insult us but the AFA quickly put him to order and the situation defused.

We tractored both bretionian and our pilots escape pods, delivered the QCP pilots to a nearby KNF representative and returned Aomori.

We tried to get the Raikoke at comms but only got a faint sound that we think it was static, or a very faint snoring as some suggested, we believe that the comms of the honourable Guild Master were malfunctioning the whole time.

Latter on I will ask Rosanjin to post a report of a junker smuggler we caught red handed at Ogoshawa, he has guncam evidence which I lack, and will have Sen Tsudo confirming here my report of the QCP incident.

I will now proceed to the overhauling of my ship and will replace the faulty guncam.

It seems the QCP were bragging about the raid of last night. Those seem to be the pirates we chased out of Kusari. Strangely enough they seem to have missed the footage where you can see them beeing eliminated and the survivors running for their lifes.

Movie editing is allways a dificult art. you allways seem to left out the relevant parts.

Sensei, like you say it's easy to edit (cut off) the parts were you are not victorious, but those are the ways of the honorless ones.
We honor the victory in batle but also the loss in batle.
Those are not the ways of the gaidjin.

I have here some footage of our convoy previous to engaging the QCP. Could the Guild perhaps use some promotional material?
