Name of Captain: Jack Frost
Name of Ship: Anglia
Cargo (And amount): several holds of Super Alloy returning with High Temp Alloy and Military Vehicles.
From: Newcastle.
Delivered at: Munich and Newcastle.
Pirates/unlawfuls: Bumped into an SCRA pilot outside of Freeport 1 but the chap was quite polite. No other encounters.
Any notes: Hauling Super Alloy to Munich to be used in the manufacture of much needed Military Vehicles and returning with these Vehilcles and/or High Temp Alloy for the manufacture of engines for the Fleet. On my last run I headed to Alster Shipyard in Hamburg with Super Alloy and returned to Southampton Shipyard in New London with Ablative Armour Plating.
The Anglia is in dock there trying to get the pigging cameras fixed on her to better report my journeys.
I will continue to ship goods for the benifit of Bretonia

Yours aye

I am submitting my final evacuation report from the Dinas Emrys before I turn my attention to 'Operation Strip Mine.'

The Dinas Emrys has made a total of five evacuation runs between Planet New London and Planet Cambridge over the past two days. I will state for the record that the assembly of the relevant persons for evacuation was a rather time consuming matter as we were required to stop at several spaceports across the capital's surface to take aboard our manifested passengers.

Nevertheless we were able to lift off with a full complement every time, a total of 15,000 souls. I'm sure that you will have vetted and approved the lists yourself, but again for the record the evacuees were persons considered of importance to the Kingdom and their families. Government officials, persons of industry, members of the aristocracy, senior members of the clergy and those deemed particularly 'at risk' of suffering at the hands of the Gauls.

For Crown and House,

Clarence Fetherstonhaugh

[From: Sub-Commander, James Badenoch]

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
This is Sub-Commander James Badenoch.

The following is an account of the recent battle in Dublin system, from my perspective.

During my work on 'Operation: Strip Mine' Deckman Adirenne Levai encountered a group of Coalition Forces in Dublin system.
They consister of 1 Battlecruiser, 2 Destroyers and 1 Very Heavy Fighter.
Using her keen intuition she instantly alerted myself and Deckman Michael Bennet.
While I sent out a communication to fellow Bretonian Armed Forces units Mr Bennet went to rendezvous with Miss Levai near Battleship Hood.

Captain John Khatri of the HMS-Matilda was the first to answer my comms. He swiftly made his way to take up position with Miss Levai and Mr Bennet.
I followed course and rendezvoused with them after safely leaving the Ullapool on Graves Station and debarking with my Steelhead bomber.

Captain Khatri warned the opposing Coalition forces and the Molly fighter who now stood with them that if they did not leave their, and I quote, "Fleet will be smashed like glass and their bodies will drift away like sand to the wind". Very poetic of him may I add.
The Coalition forces ignored this warning.

The fighters and Bombers, consisting of Deckmen Levai and Bennet and myself, took up positions on request of Captain Khatri.
The fight was on.
Their Battlecruiser was the first target. Bennet and Levai were pulled off of engaging the Battlecruiser by the Molly and Coalition fighters. I held my own and dealt as much damage to the target as I could until the a ship, whom the captain of I am unsure, called the HMS-Monarch and the Aegis, Captained by Martin Beck broke through the opposition while the Matilda laid down fire on the two Destroyers.

The hostile Battlecruiser was soon eliminated and we focused our efforts on the Destroyers.
At this time more BAF forces showed up, consisting of Willis Osborn, Captain of the Swiftsure and Deckman George Teeze.

Deckmen Bennet and Levai did exceptionally well, both taking out hostile fighters.
Unfortunately Coalition reinforcements showed up and in their already damaged ships were engaged, both ships were badly damaged and forced to retreat or face death.
I commend them both on their bravery and valiance.

One of the Coalition destroyers was destroyed and after seeing this the other fled. The Swiftsure soon took up the chase. The outcome of this however I am unaware of.

By this point there was one Destroyer left, who I believe had shown up mid battle.
Myself and the other forces engaged the Destroyer and it was eliminated spectacularly fast!

With this the battle was won.

The remaining Coalition fighters however, to my surprise, stayed to fight.
Myself and Deckman Teeze engaged the remaining fighters as the rest of the BAF forces moved back to their regular duties.
Unfortunately a last minute fighter showed up and myself and Mr Teeze in our bombers could not keep up with the speed of their Fighters and were forced to retreat.
By this time a number of BAF fighters had shown up to take over where we left off.

I have heard that one of the Coalition fighters blew their own ship up, if this is a battle technique then I have never seen nor heard of it and do not recommend that we practice it.

That is all the knowledge I currently have on the battle. Perhaps other reports from BAF Regulars and other members of the Merchant Navy can shed more light with more perspectives.

Once again I will commend Deckmen Teeze, Bennet and Levai on their determination, bravery and prowess in this battle!

Always ready to report for duty and catch haggis!
Yours sincerely,
James Badenoch, Sub-Commander of the Bomber Unit.

Greetings!

Today while moving Food Rations to Graves Station in Dublin, Sub-Commander James Badenoch and his escorts Deckman Michael Bennet and Deckman Adrienne Lerai encountered one Coaition very heavy fighter, callsign "SCRA|Red-7" and one Gallic Royal Navy bomber, callsign "Jean.Dubois" at the Cambridge jump gate in New London system.. Assistance was requested in order to avoid any losses on our side. When I reached them Sub-Commander James managed to escape and continued delivering his cargo.
A Molly destroyer, callsign "[M]-"Born_To_Kill"", joined to fight which made it harder to defend ourselves. I managed to kill the Gallic to ease the fight but soon after, the communist got a friend, callsign "SCRA|Kyle:Winston", who came in aid.
In the end we won the fight, the communist called "SCRA|Kyle:Winston" was also killed by me and the other two fled.
I will attach to this message photos from the guncam showing the destruction of the two ships.

This report is about the Bretonian Armed Forces Merchant Navy Convoy in the evening of December 19th, 824.

During my first duty as convoy scout and escort, out convoy managed to deliver vast supplies of processed Gold from Graves Station in Dublin to Planet Cambridge, as well as a good amount of Food Rations back from Cambridge to Graves Station. We did this run two times. After that, we moved back to the Cambridge system, heading for the Bristol Mining Facility.

Reaching New London on our way there, we picked up a distress call. Upon investigation, we found a Zoner Nephilim-class Mobile Colony Ship (= foreign capital ship) drifting above Planet New London. The ship was about to break apart and after a short argument, the convoy leadership decided to send have the escorts show it the way out of Bretonia, which seemed like the best decision to be done in this scenario. So far it was refrained from levying a fine for the law violation. The ship in question, designation Harbourship.NewDawn, was escorted via Dublin through the jump hole to Omega-49 to Planet Gran Canaria. This caused a delay of the convoy.

Having returned to Cambridge to rejoin the convoy at Bristol Mining Facility, our transports filled with Beryllium and their escorts headed to Planet Houston, Texas system. Exporting the Beryllium there, we loaded up libertonian Nanocapacitors and returned to Planet New London with them. This is where the main convoy ended. After a short break, we continued with another, smaller convoy, delivering Toxic Waste from Southampton Shipyards in New London to Wuppertal Station of the ALG in the Koeln system. From there we continued over to the Munich system to buy Military Vehicles from Planet Nuremberg. I wish to add here that the horrible Dark Matter catastrophe devouring the Munich system has advanced faster than expected, based on what I heard in the news and read in the archives. The planet itself is already in the very close proximity to the Dark Matter clouds which affect the planet heavily. Trade Lanes leading to and from Nuremberg can not be used anymore. A saddening view.

My duty ended as we returned to New London, delivering the Military Vehicles to Battleship Suffolk, which will take care of the distribution of the new planet-based assets. We didn't encounter hostile elements apart from a Xeno in New York and Texas, however being confronted with the imposant Merchant Navy Convoy, the fellow must have realized he wouldn't have stood a chance. No combat situations.

Greetings!

What seemed to be a quiet evening for me turned in a chaotic one in a matter of minutes. I was on planet New London having a drink in a bar with some friends when I received an emergency call from Lt. Pria Y'berg. Two Gallic Royal Navy ships were spotted in the Cambridge system. I got into my ship and departed as fast as I could. When I go there, Lt. Pria was already engaged in a discussion with them. One of them was flying a Lynx, very heavy fighter with the callsign "[RN]-Kashi~" and the other one had a Plier, Gallic Metal Service deep space miner, callsign "[RN]-Mary-Anne.Reyes".

Unfortunately during the fight Lt. Pria's ship was destroyed but managed to eject the safe pod on time and got to safety. I managed to kill one of them but due to being heavily damaged I had to disengage and get some quick repairs. After my ship had some repairs done I went on a sweep patrol of the system and got a glimpse of the other gallic right before he jumped in New London system. I didn't want to let him get away so I followed him to Leeds system where I caught and turned him into scrap.
