I can announce that a new Uruz,
named Stuttgart is comissioned and is ready to do her job.
Well I must admit that the ship is not a completely new one,
but its though as a bear.
I picked my crew. I hope that my fellow partners
will be satisfied with their attitude.
The only one thing that is not clear for me...
Is there a general outfit for Kruger staff?
I didn't find any info on that, but then again,
I prefer my personal clothing. I hope it won't bother anyone,
as I usually chat via audio comms.
So there is no chance I can get criticized
because of the things I'm wearing.
Enough of this... So basically what I want to say is
that the ship is ready to get down to business.

Guten Tag,
First of all I want to thank the few ones within the convoy of last night. It was for once a small but splendid convoy! We took down those pirates and even that Outcast who just opened fire upon us. They felt the wrath of the Uruz! Lucky our cargo was all spared and we had no losses at all.
After this trip I took some time to dig into the financial books and discovered we did a very good job. We are now shipping so much that our old loans are payed of. Still there is a lot to be done, but if I see the current amount of our mining operations, then we are doing a darn good job! Keep it up!
As for the ones interested. *coughs*
Amount mined:
Silver Ore: 84212 units
Cobalt Ore: 46213 units
Copper Ore: 18945 units
Transported ourselves:
84% of the ore units.
Sold to other transports:
16% of the ore units
Also to add. Some of our employees did catch some libertonians within omega 7. Even an independent miner was filling him up. I recommend to keep your eyes out guys, because we don't want Liberty to profit from our fields and due to that finance the war against zhe Rheinland! If you see anything, please report and make sure to add as much evidence as you can.
After this all being said... I would say take some Rheinbeer within Elbich Mining Facility, because we all earned it. We just got a new shipment of Rheinbeer ready to be consumed.
Mit freundlichen grüßen

Ah, where to start. The mining operation in Omega-7, yes. Kruger miners were mining silver ore for the next shipment to the houses when the message came in over the secure comms and alarm sounded. The message read ''Incoming Hessian fleet''.
The mining operation was scraped and mining personnel docked their miners. The Kruger security wing was called upon, but due to our pilot shortage and budget cuts, we raised only 2 Roc bombers and 1 gunboat to the action. Kruger security wing intercepted Hessian fleet in Omega-7 by the gate to Omega-3. The fleet was small: 1 Jormungand class Battleship, 1 Heimdall class Gunboat and 1 Odin class Very Heavy Fighter. Me and my wingmen pushed them through the gate to Omega-3 and chased them to the middle of the second Trade Lane. There the real battle started.
In the midst of battle Corsair Bomber appeared on scanners. He wasn't very interested in Kruger forces and kept status quo until after the battle, but was very happy to shoot Hessian battleship. After some time of bombardment the battleship exploded in spectacular BooM!
After the Hessians were gone to kingdom come we turned our selves to Corsair bomber, but he was in no mood to fight and made his way back to Omega-5.
With nothing else to do in Omega-3 Kruger security wing returned to Omega-7 and docked on Elbich to catch a little rest before the next emergency.
Today's Silver ore mining and transporting operation was a huge success. 3 Kruger transports, 2 Uruzes and 1 Hegemon were filled with silver ore and safety escorted, by Kruger security wing, from Elbich Station, Omega-7, to Narita Outpost, New Tokyo.
In Frankfurt Dauman Uruz has joined our convoy due to some Corsair raiding party on the way. But, thanks to our skilled scouts, we avoided them completely and arrived at our destination safe and sound.
I wish to congratulate all our employees for a job well done and to submit a few camera shots. Load 1 Load 2 Load 3 Dauman load 4
Today, I will be brief. We had two situation which required Kruger security wing.
First was Corsair cruiser going rampage on Kruger miners, in Omega-7, and second was IMG Hegemon miner stealing ore from Kruger mining field.
The Corsair cruiser was on the way for Kruger mining field on Omega-7, but our early warning beacons in the system activated on time and Kruger miners had time to safely dock on Elbich. Security wing immediately undocked on the first sign of hostiles in the system and intercepted Corsair cruiser. Corsair captain was in no mood for negotiations and soon started firing on Kruger security ships. With first shots fired, we already saw that he was an inexperienced captain and soon after that remodeled his ship into scrap metal.
IMG Hegemon was a sneaky one. He got away from Kruger security wing based in Omega-7 but not before they tagged him and informed Kruger security wing based in Sigma-13 of the incident. Sigma-13 wing was waiting for him. IMG miner tryed to bribe our pilots into letting him go, but Kruger pilots are not greedy or corrupt. So they ordered IMG miner to drop the ore for breaking the law of Rheinland in Omega-7. IMG miner obeyed the order, dropped the ore and destroyed it him self and made our job a lot easier. This time he passed with a warning, but next time that IMG miner will be turned into scrap metal as well. I will transmit logs of this encounter with IMG along with my report. Log 1, Log 2, Log 3, Log 4, Log 5.
We had some unexpected visitors today, unexpected because they came all the way from Gallia to Omega-7 and they were members of one of Gallia's fuel processing and gate/lane construction companies called ''EFL Oil and Machinery''. This was their first time in Omega-7 and I guess in Rheinland. We greeted them with respect and offered them our mining services. They chose silver ore for us to mine, saying that it's highly wanted commodity in Gallia. 2 Hegemon mining ships were called into service to meet the request of the EFL transports. Mining was fast due to the experience of Kruger miners. After finishing the mining operation, we wished them good luck back to their home systems and continued mining for Kruger needs.
I am transmitting the logs of this event along with my report for future reference. Log 1, Log 2, Log 3, Log 4, Log 5, Log 6.
Today was one busy day for Kruger security wing. Two enemy fleets came to Omega-7, Corsair fleet to siege Kruger base, Reutlingen Storage Facility, and Hessian fleet who just came there to pick a fight. In the end, they both drew the shorter stick.
First fleet was the Corsair one, consisted out of two Legates class Dreadnoughts, that started the siege. They requested a fine of 10 million credits in order to stop shooting the base and leave the perimeter. Of Course, Kruger does not negotiate with either terrorists or pirates alike. Log 1, Log 2, Log 3, Log 4. Kruger security wing responded with one Roc and two Waran class bombers and was assisted by Rheinland Military which came with two Bergelmir class bombers and one Oder class gunboat. The fight was fierce and long, Legates were heavily armored, but have eventually crumbled under sustained fire from both Kruger and Rheinland Military bombers. Log 5, Log 6.
Conversation between Corsairs and Kruger-Rheinland Military forces was recorded and can be uploaded to Kruger network if necessary.
Second fleet, consisted out of two Heimdall class gunboats and one Vidar class cruiser, engaged Kruger and Rheinland Military forces, consisted out of one Roc class bomber, 2 Waran class bombers, 4 Bergelmir class bombers and 1 Donau class Cruiser, just a few kilometers from Elbich Mining Facility. The fight was even bigger then the one with Corsairs earlier today. First to fall was Hessian gunboat.Kruger had one casualty, fortunately only a bomber was destroyed and pilot managed to eject and was tractored in the cargo hold by Rheinland Military cruiser. Second Hessian gunboat soon exploded and was followed by lonely cruiser.
Detail conversation logs between Hessians and Kruger-Rheinland Military ships were recorded and can be uploaded to Kruger network if necessary.
With this I conclude today's report which was I might add very long due to the great pirate activity.

FROM: Security Pilot Delta 12 TO: Kruger Security SUBJECT: Defending of a DHC convoy REPORT:
Guten Abend,
Today I was refuling and restocking with my waran on New Berlin as I got a distress call from a DHC transport, the DHC-Einheit
It was under attack by a single pirate bomber near the Frankfurt jump gate.
SInce Military and Police patrol's were busy elswhere I decided to move in and intercept the bomber. Once I arrived on scene I gave the Pirate a warning and about 1 minute to charge his cruise and leave. Since he refused to comply and continued to fire onto the Transport I opened fire. After draining his shields multiple times he went for the jump gate to escape. However there was another DHC transport on route to the Berlin gate in Frankfurt. I pursuired the enemy vessel and with the help of the Einheit destroyed it before any more harm could be done to the DHC convoy.
