Greetings gentlemen, today I patrolled with Constable Mcnab, not much to report, but Superintendant Lauderdale, I would like to submit a promotion recommendation for him. He flies with great skill and duty, and is also in space quite a bit.
Anyway, down to business, today two Corsairs were detected in Cambridge, I headed there and found them near Planet Cambridge, I ordered them to leave, they refused and opened fire, it was a Titan and Praetorian versus my Hussar. A grim situation, but I held out and destroyed the Titan with a Nuclear Mine and Train Cruise Disruptor combo. I then turned to the Praetorian, who after a long battle destroyed both our ships with a Nova Torpedo, fortunatley I was unhurt and got my ship back quickly.
Later, I came across an HR ship, the Killer Battlecruiser with QCRF forces, Isaac Brock and another in a bomber (forgot the name) I was in my bomber so it soon was going down. The captain decided to run, so we let him be and returned to the Essex, but he returned and suddenly destroyed Isaac's ship! Enraged I engaged and destroyed his battered ship. //He was reported for this.
I later flew my bomber to Dublin, expecting a leprechaun capital ship, I ended up coming across a pirate Greyhound and a Molly Greyhound, despite the misuse of my bomber, I destroyed the pirate with a mine. The UoG was tougher, but I got him with a well aimed supernova.
I apologize for the misuse of my bomber, and will try to avoid this in the future.
Greetings gentlemen, I must inform you on an employment of a bounty hunter, Major~Lag. He has signed to a one month contract that entitles him to payment for the below services.
1. Five hundred thousand Credits for assist with smuggler or report of a smuggler
2. One million Credits for destruction of a hostile fighter
3. Five million Credits for destruction of a hostile gunboat
4. Ten million Credits for destruction of a hostile cruiser
5. Fifteen million for destruction of a hostile battleship
6. All above services will be halved in the event of an assist of QCRF or BPA against said hostiles
I have also given him limited access to New Scotland Yard, get him in our group comms if you see him!
A Bretonian working for planetform Inc, Who name is Slartibartfast, has been sighted again last night in London with a load of deuterium.
Bretonian being, I was expecting that this pilot observed our laws ... Damned!
When taking the lead from Leeds, I have followed to ask its destination: "Sigma 13" he answered me!
After giving him atop the order to stop him and explain the situation, I ordered him dropped its load on a Bretonian base.
He refused and fled on TAU 31 with the illegal load .
Gentlemen, this case is very serious, because it makes him a traitor, compared with the Queen and Bretonia.
I request a copy what sanction is taken on it.
Long live the queen!

Gentlemen,
time for the usual patrol report. Everything seemed fine when I took off Planet New London this morning, only a few unknown vessels in Cambridge, so I decided to go there for a relaxed scanning patrol.
As I arrived and took the trade lane to the Planet my scanner went flashing red: two corsairs sighted!
The vessels Melkor (a Preatorian bomber) and |Wretched|FireBlade ( a Titan) were pirating and murdering near the trade lane. Since they were even using Nomad weaponry, I told them to get out of Bretonia immediately.
But, well, they wouldn't be normal corsairs if they just listened to that order. They argued that a Corsair would have a right to do everything he wants, everywhere! Impudent fools, I explained them that such behaviour is not tolerated in the Queen's space. Since they preferred to fire their guns at me instead of staying polite, I engaged.
As I was still fighting the bomber, Melkor, support arrived, a pilot of the BAF, Mr T.C. McQueen. That polite gentleman joined me and together, we took down the first obstacle:
We now focussed on the fighter and decreased his shield and hull, and I was lucky to deliver the final blow:
The pirate pods were delivered to the Norfolk and will be taken to Newgate with the next prisoner transport. Cambridge is now clear again.
Cooper out.

Gentlemen,
Me that I was a joy to communicate to you the Melkor's defeat in Cambridge system but unfortunately, I was taken to speed it seems to me ...
Poor Melkor .... it was ultimately not his day ...
It is found in the New London System when I started my usual patrol. After giving him entitled ordered to leave Bretonia, I followed to make sure his obedience. Once he tried to escape by Poole ... without success ! And a second time in the system Cambridge or he was shot after a short struggle.
I found no trace of escape pod after the fight. But space is so vast ... maybe we meet him again.
Roxburg out

Gentlemen,
I'll just inform you of the second half of today's patrol. As I took off from Planet Cambridge, there were only the usual traders, nothing suspicious in their holds. In New London, I got one trader with Deuterium. As I asked the destination, he fortunately prooved to be honest and told me it'd be New Tokyo. Luckily, he cooperated when told not to deliver the Kusarians their goods. I escorted him to the Cortez Jump Gate since he chose California as the new destination.
Back in Leeds, I encountered an Outcast, Montezuma, and told him to leave Bretonia. To make sure he wouldn't harm any traders, I decided to follow him on his way out. When we arrived in Manchester, he turned and opened fire, claiming to "have changed his mind". Poor bandit! I engaged and the fight ended as a victory:
I returned to New London and Constable Roxburg joined me on the patrol. Soon, a lone Leprechaun entered the system, moving towards Planet New London, our position. He came from above the orbital level and screamed while speeding towards us. Roxburg kept his calm, aimed well and took the terrorist down with a few shots:
Roxburg had some business on New London, so he left after the short fight. I wasn't alone for a long time though, as Constable Paddock and Sergeant Vimes soon contacted me. We escorted a Colonial out of Bretonia - he didn't resist but wasn't very friendly - as expected.
As he left Cambridge, a Corsair entered the system, [OPG]Skullcracker. We asked him about his intentions, but as Vimes was still speaking on the comms, the outlaw shot his Hussar down! I recovered his pod and engaged him together with Paddock. He was drifting towards the Omega Jump Hole, but we made it in time:
Paddock and I returned to Planet Cambridge as the system was clear again.
Cooper out.

Jolly good show out there chaps! I knew those training excersises would come in handy, those leprechauns and all other pirates need to learn this:No pots o' gold in Bretonia. No pirates in Bretonia!
Long live the queen and may we continue our success!

Hello fellow Officers,
As I got into my faithfull Hussar today and fired up the engines, I noticed a conversation between two leprechauns over global comm, about the raid they were condacting in the New London system.
I quickly launched into space and started patrolling the system.
The two of them - .:UoG:.A*Hall and .:UoG:.A*Phobos, both flying a Greyhound, were found at SouthHampton Shipyard destroying the queens' property.
I hail the both of them and ordered them to leave the system at once, but as a response they switched to private comms and started firing at me.
I engaged imidietly the two hostile ships and a fight went on for about half an hour or so (//they kept shield running) but I was causing a notable amount of damage tothe both of them.
Luckely, as I was starting to loss my patience at that point, Or'dinii.[M] jumped into system and offered his help, wich I gladly accepted, and he joined me in the fight against the hostiles.
We took out Hall pretty fast, and while we turned to focus our fire on Phobos, another leprechaun jumped into the fight - .:UoG:.C*GhostFace flying a Greyhound as well, and after a while another one engaged - .:UoG:.B*Odyssey flying a Rogue Gun Boat.
All the renforment the UoG called upon didn't help, and after a while both Phobos and the Odyssey were shot down.
At that point GhostFace got some sense and fled the battlefield, with his hull burning and no botts on board.
The UoG learned a lesson today - You Do NOT Mess With Bretonia!
As a bonus to our victory, i managed to tractor in 11 BAF pilots held prisoners on board the UoG ships.
All in all, a fine day indeed,
I'm heading now to celebrate our victory in a tea party held at planet New London - you are all welcome, it's on me.

Hello,
I continued my patrol today in the New London system, when i noticed a trader hauling Gold.
I asked him where is the shipment headed and he replyed that he is taking the gold to New Tokyo. I then tried reasoning with him, telling him he is aiding our sworn enemies, he then suggested taking the shipment into Liberty insted, but when he got to the Jump Gate to Leeds, I heard him laughing over the comm and mumbling about how he tricked me.
I then started a persuite after the trader to try and still reason with him to take his shipment to liberty insted (// couldn't engage - under lvl) but he just kept on running, mocking our authority.
I suggest we place him in the wanted list, till he pay a fine for aiding out enemy in times of war.
Today, as I woke up on the Essex in Dublin, I was alerted of two Molly pilots in New London, I checked Planet New London, clear, I then headed to Southampton, ran into one of them in the middle of the trade lane. I cut the lane, and decided to destroy him, because even if he left, his ship would be a threat to Bretonia, I gave him plenty of time to respond to my threats of attack, and then shot his shields down and made him eat a mine. He didn't even get the chance to open fire. Then, his buddy came in a Barghest bomber, as soon as he saw his comrades downed ship he ran for the Dublin jump hole. I chased him through and on the other side the Corsairs stopped his escape attempts. I then engaged, and after a time of going back and forth between Dublin and New London, his backup arrived in the form of a Greyhound fighter. I engaged, nearly destroying the Greyhound, but it evaded. Then suddenly, the Greyhound disappeared! This is the second time this strange occurence has happened, a cloaking device perhaps, anyway I engaged the bomber again, and soon, it was destroyed.
I would like to point out that I am using a new loadout, instead of the standard two Adv. Splitters and two Adv. Debilitators, I am now using two Adv. Splitters and two Splitters. I prefer this because of the hull damage, and in groups it's definatley better. However, on your own their shields drop a little slower, not much though. In the end it is your choice, but I prefer this loadout.
I later linked up with the hired Bounty Hunter gunboat, Major~Lag. We looked for some Mollies to deal with but none showed up, so I returned to the Essex to file this paperwork.
Gentlemen, I have decided to put together a list of reported kills to the New Scotland Yard message center. I will look through and find all reports of destroyed enemies from all BPA members and the HMS Essex, because of its extraodinary success against Mollies in Dublin and the HMS-Ark Royal along with the HMS-Suffolk.
HMS-Suffolk-Reported kills and assists:One
HMS-Ark Royal-Reported kills and assists:One
HMS-Essex-Reported kills and assists:Three
Superintendant Lauderdale-Reported kills and assists:Two
Police Captain Scott-Reported kills and assists:Thirty-four
Police Sargeant Vimes-Reported kills and assists:Five
Police Sargeant Cooper-Reported kills and assists:Twelve
Police Constable Roxburg-Reported kills and assists:Nine-Constable Roxburg, flying the Bretonian Battleship, the Leviathan, assisted in the destruction of the UoG battleship, the Proton
Police Constable Mcnab-Reported kills and assists:Eight
These are encouraging numbers! Well done to all of our officers, those that didn't make it on the list, keep those patrols up and report destruction of enemy ships. Its a pleasure to fly with you all, I just have a feeling something big is coming up. Last night I dreamed of my capture by the UoG cruiser, the Patriot...this disturbs me. -Shivers and sips hot tea-
Well, good night chaps, may this kill list give you inspiriation and may we all continue to prosper! I will update this every report I get, so check back every now and again!
Long live the queen! Long live the Bretonian Police Authority!
This message was just intercepted from the Mollies, its to garbled to understand, I could've sworn I heard Bruce Scott in there.
