There is short report i made, while my ship on repairs. Today i went for to Bretonia with some helium-3 in cargo. Once i left Kusari space i've been robed by pirate named Teyo Rivera and almost got killed by GRN patrol. But the adventure haven't ended here. In the next, Tau 31 system, i've been unlucky to cross the way with ELF bomber... he attempted to make me drop my cargo, when i refused he open fire. Haven't did anything, just shot himself down... But that is not the end. Once i continued moving, another ELF bomber found me... this one was more experienced, but i made it to Leeds JG... he haven't dare to follow... That's all for now.

This week was a hard week but somewhat profitable. I found a Miner to work for me for a reasonable price in Dublin. On upon getting my cargo pods filled, two pirates entered the system. Thanks to an early warning by one of our escorts, I was able to leave the system unharmed. Later this week I was unfortunate. I was bringing basic alloy to Otechami, when I was suddenly stopped by a corsair cruiser. Not being given much time to respond, my ship was blown up. My escape pod traveled to safety, after my ship blew up. Some of my crew gave their lives in order to insure me and the rest of the crew would be safe. After being released from the medical wing, I was given a new ship of the same class. Luckily I have health Insurance. I will be trading more carefully in the future.

The first week (well, the past 3 days actually) has been an interesting one (like it usually is).
Day 1 - Started off by acquiring luxury food from Cambridge (planet) and delivering it, uneventfully, to Manhattan.
- Next, from Manhattan i purchased some basic alloys and delivered it to Camrose Suply Depot, without incident.
- Afterwards i picked up a load of Toxic waste from Fort Severn. Feeling a bit tired i (foolishly) decided to let the autopilot get the ship to Cardiff. I woke up to the sounds of alarms and the ship crashlanding on Los Angeles. Not feeling like going back, i hired a goon to re-acquire the load of Toxic waste and get the ship safely to me in L.A. where i visited my aunt (can`t think of a better reason for an unexpected visit). Anyway, no further events occured and the cargo was delivered to Cardiff Mining Facilty.
- From Cardiff i got a shipment of Berylium and set out for Texas. On my way there i was stoped by an outcast, paid his fairly small toll and delivered the cargo safely to Houston.
- Next, bought a load of Nanocapacitors from Houston and decided to head for the Roussillon system. After a while (and a slight panic attack seeing all those mines) i made a hefty sum on Toulouse.
-Since i was neaby i agreed to deliver some plastics from Perpignan Freeport (along with replenishing my supply of Wine). Again, without problems, the shipment was delivered to Narita Outpost.
- Feeling very pleased with such a succesfull day, i continued with a hold full of Engine Components from Yokohama. In one of the border systems a fairly large battle between The Navy and Nomads happened. A few stray shots hit my vessel, damaging most sub-systems. From all of that shock i can`t remember where i sold those engines, but when i regained full consciousness i decided that it`s enough for today.
Day 2 - Hoping for a good profit, i started the day by picking up some FloraGro from Californie Minor and wnt for Okinawa, but this day had to go wrong early today in the form of a Rheinland military person in Shikoku. This guy demanded that i drop all my cargo for no better reason than that i am a Libertonian vessel and the Liberty vs. Rheinland war. After refusing h proceeded to slowly destroy my ship and after 5 minutes, succeeded. Stubornly, after having the ship repaired, i eventually delivered the FloraGro to Isahara Refinery.
- Feeling reinvigorated (or maybe it was just the refinery fumes) i grabbed a load of Plutonium (of all things) from Furyoku and perfectly boringly got it to Sunderland Research Station.
- Next, picked up Super Alloys from Scarborough and headed for Minnesota. A few annoying pirate weapon platforms later, Duluth Shipyard recieved it`s alloys. (Camera couldn`t take visible pictures due to the thick ice)
- Remembering how well i went (and i ran out of wine) i succesfully delivered another sipment of Nanocapacitors from Houston to Toulouse and called it a day.
Day 3 - This was an unpleasant day, soi`ll be short.
- Delivery 1 was industria materials from Perpignan to Cardiff, but along the way Morbius stopped me, took 4mil and all my wine.
- Delivery 2 was the only trully succesful this day. a simple delivery of Berylium from Cardiff to Trenton.
- Delivery 3 again saw a pirate toll of 5mil on my to the Hawaii Liner with Luxury cosumer goods (purchased in Newark).
- Delivery 4 was the final straw for this day. heading from Hawaii with Holosculptures a pirate demanded all of them and i was left to leave unharmed.
I shall start the next week by going to Roussillon.

Second week (the first proper one) went fairly well, with a few exceptions, but overall it was both profitable and fun. (From now on, i will only give detailed descriptions on noteworthy events, the rest will be in simple format: Buy location, Commodity ==> Sell location)
[size=13] - Started the week the only way you can: From Furyoku safely delivered a load of Plutonium to Sunderland, which is convniently close to the Roussillon jump hole (basically i stocked up on Wine there)
- Then from Parpignan i transported some Plastics to Narita.
- Afterwards from the nearby Shinjuku Station delivered Consumer Goods to the rather annoyingto-get-to Kurile planet.
- From Kurile bunch of Scientists requested transport off the place either due to poor health conditions or they just couldn`t stand such isolation. Along the way i encountered a very lonely pirate. He tried to court me, saying he hadn`t seen a woman in a very long time and he was very obsessed with some ideas in his head, but i offered him some of my Wine and he let me go saying: "You dont wanna see me doin` it. Drunk!" After that incident the Scientists seemed to get ideas of their ow so i quickly dropped them off on Los Angelos.
- Next, from Los Angelos i took a fresh batch o Optical Chips o Scarborough.
- Being near Cambridge i stopped by and picked up a load of delicious Luxury Food and had a good meal along the way err... i mean delivered it to Saint Paul, but not without being stopped by ...pirates? It is hard to tell because, yes, they did demand a 5 million credit fine, but they claimed to be from the Church of Jiub and were "Collecting donations" and, even stranger still, said that they`d name one of the churches The Neanderthal Church of Jiub... I don`t know what to make of it, but the initial cargo was safely delivered
- Then a qick Prisoner transfer from the unfitted for labor Moorhead station to work hard at Sugarland.
- Incidentally, Sugarland had some rehabilitated inmates ready for a new life. The warden doesn`t trust ex-Prisoners, so he had me deliver them to the far away Freeport-14. IMPORTANT! Along the way i was halted by a band of rogues with the usual fine, but also a MESSAGE. for, well, you, my employer.
(I`m pretty sure the rest of this report isn`t very important, but i carry on)
- So on Freeport-14 i find a group of lost Passangers who were willing to pay me to get them to Cambridge, so i did, and the pay was nice.
- Feeling sick of organic cargo, i got a shiment of Mining Machinery from Thames and efficiently delivered it to Shinkaku.
- From Shinkaku i thought i`d help the environment (eventually become viable for paying customers) by getting thousands of canisters of Terraforming Gasses to Isehara.
- This time i wanted to deliver some Scientists from Furyoku, but i... kinda forgot about them at one point and decided to go Jump Hole exploring and... well, once i go into Hiroshima i can`t get out... After a stern yelling at (in my escape pod) from the Kusari Navy. Promising not to talk about anything i might`ve seen they let me go, had to cover all the repair costs myself and i have no idea what they did to those Scientists.
- The next day i was contacted by a friendly GMG gas miner in Okinawa and make a hefty profit by transprting Helium-3 that he had mined to Southampton. Of course the H3 wasn`t free, but 15 million for acargo worth 50 mil is well worth it.
Going back i picked up a load of Ship Hull Panels at Stokes to help Otemachi. In total i did two H3 runs and three Hull hauls (+some minor trades along the path) and only had one encounter with the Farmers Alliance, who were complaining that IC (and foreign traders in general) are taking away jobs from farmers and, somehow making the seeds not grow well by delivering cargo such as mine. I was carrying Ship Hull Panels and, i`m no biologist, but i am fairly certain no part of growing rice requires large metal plates.
Overall, the week was good and i hope to have a continued positive and profitable employment here at Interspace Commerce.
The IC|Florida brought 19,400 units of Industrial Materials and 5000 units of Robotics to help build the Storage Module for Otemachi Trade Annexe. This covers all the Robotics and Industrial Materials needed for the Upgrade. We need 49,400 units of Ship Hull Panels to complete the Upgrade.
I might also add that, as requested, 20,000 units of Basic Alloys has been brought to Otemachi Trade Annexe by The Florida.
Otemachi has received 4240 units of Super Alloy to aid in construction.
Nothing notable to report, other than running into a passing battleship patrol of the Royal Navy, but I was moving fast enough to avoid them.
Later, after having a beer or two, I brought in some more supplies. These supplies were 8480 units of Polymers, 4240 units of Super Alloy, and 16947 units of Robotics. Took multiple runs between bases, pretty boring runs, nothing special to report.
I began a ran from Otemachi Trade Annexe to Planet Kyushu to supply Otemachi with much needed Ship Hull Panels for it's cargo storage upgrade.
I flew empty along side a GMG| employee (or member, depending what GMG calls their people) in a Kamome hauling Helium-3, to the Okinawa Jump Gate in Honshu. There is where things got interesting. Right infront of my eyes, a Corsair Praefect Cruiser by the name of "Apocalypse.Now" uncloaks right at the gate! Lucky for me, he didn't seem to notice my ship, and I managed to get close enough to the trade lane to dock. However, the GMG| fellow I was with wasn't so lucky unfortunately. The cruiser focused on him, and demanded 5 million credits. I, being only in a Bison, and having no way to assist the GMG| against a ship of such size and power, was forced to leave the GMG| and Corsair cruiser behind and proceed to safety.
That was about as interesting as it got. From there, I headed straight to Planet Kyushu, grabbed 2000 Ship Hull Panels, and brought them straight back to Otemachi, with rarely any contact, not even the cruiser was there anymore, or if he was, he was cloaked.
From there, I proceeded to bring in the final 4800 Industrial Materials needed for the upgrade from the Osaka Storage Facility, Took me two runs, only person I ran into, besides the normal patrols and transports, was a fellow in some Colonial Light Fighter. Interesting ship that was, quite slick looking too, wouldn't mind getting one myself some day.

Right, If you haven't noticed already, our current requisition requests to our supply depots has changed to military-based resources. Along with a few billion credits relocated to the Security Division budget, as for the reason...let's just say Interspace will be expanding that particular division, by quite a bit. Which is also why I am now in charge of the whole department.
All security division employees are to report to the nearest Interspace base for reassessment as an employee. That'll be all.
There's one strange thing I wish to present to your attention. During my usual trade run from Bretonia to Kusari I've meet Bretonia Police officer. He mentioned some "Tau tax". I've never heard about this and actually thought that all those details were covered already. Though I had no wish to waste relations with Bretonian authorities so I paid 500000 Sirius credits and continued my run. Though I am not sure if such tax even exist. If it do exist, inform me please, if not, I guess you can settle this matter. Files attached:

Well, I only joined this organisation this week, so I don't have much to report. I have spent the week testing out different trade routes, timing myself to find out what's more profitable. I have spent most of my time moving goods between Liberty and Kusari - Boron, Ship Hull Panels and Helium-3, usually.
The only incident to report happened yesterday. I had just finished the Boron run from Pittsburgh to Planet Kyushu. I picked up a lot of passengers to take to the
Okinawa system. As I neared the New Tokyo gate, I was stopped by The Wilde. He demanded my destination, and was not placated by my answer. I did my best, but two heavy fighters against a lone transport?
They were merciless - my passengers were spared no thought. I can only pray some of them survived and were picked up by the folks that found me. Unfortunately, when I last had my ship looked at one of the engineers must have crossed some wires as my recording equipment wasn't responding. I've identified and rectified the problem, though, so it won't happen again.
My time in Medical shouldn't be overlong, and company insurance has provided another transport, so I'm all good to go.
