Agent Manticore here.
I took a brief trip to the Leeds system, where I interestingly encountered a gunboat belonging to the Sirius Coaltion Revolutionary Army, a military force representing the Old Earth Coalition here in Sirius. ONI knows little about this organization and we've had minimal contact with their units in the past, so I entered into conversation with the vessel over open channels. To my surprise, the Coalition Premier, their leader, was aboard their vessel.
I managed to obtain several useful morsels of information from her, all the while eluding the pathetic attempts of the BPA and Colonials to find me. I also actively worked to encourage her to seek alliance with us as opposed to aiding the Bretonians, but only time will tell whether the seeds I planted will take hold.

I believe the conversation log speaks for itself. I will continue my reconnaissance operations until I receive new orders.

Bonjour, Mesdames et Messieurs.
Presenting you my report of action that took place in Newcastle system today. Strike team under command of Marechal Ansel Xavier went there. We had 5 fighters 3 bombers and one Valor class capital ship, Grenoble. We entered Newcastle from Dundee system.
First off, we met OSI transport. Due to Monsieurs Xavier distrust, we've took some of OSI's crews to make sure he won't tell our location to the enemy, and left GRP bomber guard him. After that we moved to our future battleground.
Soon after we cleared out of ice cloud, few bretonian fighters appeared from several locations, so i've been ordered to take one of them alone. However soon more came, and brought some heavy ships. Bretonian battleship and 2 destroyers came and engaged Grenoble. Due to fight Grenoble, bretonian battleship and destroyer have been disabled. We also lost one fighter and one bomber, however manage to take down at least 4 enemy fighters, mostly thanks to skill of Sous Lieutenant Mike Candys. However enemy fighters keep coming. We successfully retreated to friendly space.
List of the ships we lost:
GRN|RNS-Grenoble - Valor (Disabled)
GRN|Mike.Candys. - Cougar
GRN-Jean.Leuven - Lynx
High Command notes with pleasure that the new Sous-Lieutenants are doing a good job so far. As a result, a lot of them have been selected for a promotion.
The following Sous-Lieutenants have been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant:
Lisa Dubois
Mike Candys
Montrel Claude
Jacques Delmes

Another report of my daily patrol results.
Today I located Zoner transport in Tau 23 system. However he manage to jump to Orkney, then breach through mine field and reach Languedoc system, where he docked on Gallic Junkers base.
In few moments after that I noticed Council transport heading to Orkney jump hole with load of Cryocubes. In several minutes of chase I managed to stop him. He refused to surrender and opened fire, so I destroyed the transport and the cargo.
A short report, as the patrol today with Chevalier-kaisa was mostly uneventful. However, there was one occurrence of note, possibly of high priority.
Chevalier-kaisa and I left the Castres to begin our patrol, and took a route through the Tau systems, Newcastle and Leeds in our flight. There was little of note for the entire excursion, and we had just re-entered Edinburgh when I received an unexpected long-range transmission:
Following this, the anonymous source cut the comms link.
While doubtful of the validity of the transmission, Chevalier-kaisa and I decided to investigate the co-ordinates provided, just in case. We cautiously returned through the Leeds jumphole and proceeded towards the target area.
Before long, we made visual contact with something. Upon closer inspection, the object resolved itself as a space station and an array of defense platforms.
I have attached the relevant guncam shots above. Precise map co-ordinates of the base are included, although I must stress that the installation location is ~30-40k below the galactic plane on the 2D co-ordinates shown. I hope the information is of use.
Immediately after verifying and logging this data, Chevalier-kaisa and I returned to the Castres.
Bonjour,
I would like to report that there is a pilot named Mihku, with an IMG ID, and BAF's IFF in Gallia. After spoting him going into Languedoc I contacted him and ordered him to stop. He ignored me and proceeded towards Lyonnas, where I caught up with him and he engaged me. After taking down his shield he docked and vanished from my neural net. The same thing happened the next day in Picardy. Note to all GRN pilots: this pilot is hostile and ignores our orders. He flies a Spatial...

Bonjour, Mesdames et Messieurs.
Today earlier, together with small group of secondary fleet vessels, I've went for fight in Leeds system. Must say I wasn't impressed about the way it have been done, but we manage to disable several Bretonian and Council vessels. To be exact it was:
One Bretonian battleship.
One Council battleship.
Two Council cruisers.
One Bretonian bomber.
The strike team consisted of two battleships, one cruiser, two gunboats, fighter and bomber.
Bonjour! Today was a a crazy day for me. I undocked from Guillstere to do a patrol in Tau 23. When I undocked, a Royal Navy told me there is a situation by Java Station. I headed out there to see what was wrong. When I got there, I saw Reavers, and a Junker killing a Outcast. It was a interesting fight, and well ended with the Junker being alive. Little after that, I talked with Reavers, and a Colonial Battleship and a Nyx Fighter undocked from Java. The Battleship headed for Orkney Jump Hole, so I CDed it, and it fired a Heavy Mortar at me and said " Dont do that ". Me and the Reavers attack him and we killed him later on. After we killed the Battleship, we went to see how the other Reaver is doing with the little guy. He did well, even though I came close to the end of the fight. I thanked the Reavers for assistence, and left to the Battleship to take a rest.
